Need Recommendations for a doula (postpartum support)

Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with using a postpartum doula to provide support immediately after childbirth (infant care, light household chores, etc.) ? If so, could you please provide reccos.

Thanks,

Deepa

Hi Deepa, 

I am in the same position and looking for doula as well starting mid June. I haven't found any good resources as of yet, but please do share some websites or resources that you might have come across while doing your research. 

Thanks
