Alexia also provides postpartum nutritional support through Hola Postpartum. This service helps nourish new moms, whether it’s their first or fifth baby. It provides nutritious, ready-to-heat meals, broths, snacks, and sweets to enhance postpartum recovery. Additionally, each doula package offers Hola Postpartum.

  • How to pump milk,
  • How to plan how much milk a baby needs,
  • How to introduce the bottle,
