“If you want to take care of the
future generations, begin by
taking care of the mothers.”
- Rachelle Garcia Seliga
Traditional wisdom has long held that the immediate postpartum period is crucial in determining the health of a mother through menopause and beyond. Our bodies need true rest to heal and our baby needs all of our presence and attention. Prior to the modern nuclear family system, postpartum women and young families had their practical needs taken care of by their community during this time so they could rest, bond, and integrate. Modern mothers are expected to “bounce back” to their normal pace of life with no time to heal and bond. These expectations lead to depletion, nervous system dysregulation, pelvic floor issues… all of which affect our bodies for the rest of our lives as well as our children’s health and wellbeing.
As an INNATE Postpartum Certified Practitioner, I have been trained to holistically tend to the physiologic and psychological needs of postpartum mothers. I offer grounded, evidence-based care rooted in traditional wisdom. I deeply trust in your innate ability to mother your children and will always support your choices and your intuition above all.
Care Packages
Bringing a new baby into the world is a huge transition, whether they’re your first or your fifth. It truly takes a village and the nuclear family setup leaves much to be desired as far as community support goes. You deserve to feel held and nourished while you rest, heal, and bond, without worrying about what’s for dinner or who’s going to tackle the ever-growing pile of dirty laundry. As a Postpartum Care Provider, I offer practical household help as well as postpartum-specific body therapies, emotional support, and a warm, calm presence.

Planning Session
Do you want to plan a nourished, well-supported postpartum experience, but you’re not sure where to begin? Let me support you!
In a postpartum planning session, we will go over the essentials for postpartum wellness, discuss your family’s unique needs, and strategize how to use the resources you have available to meet these needs while you rest, heal, and bond with your new baby.
You get:
- A 1.5 hour planning session, in person or via video chat
- A written postpartum plan
- A list of local-to-you resources
- A 30-minute check-in call after your baby is born
Mama Meals
Postpartum mothers need warming, nourishing, easily digestible food to support their healing. I offer a full menu of organic meals, snacks, and beverages tailored to the needs of the postpartum body, and delicious enough for the whole family.
“While my first birth experience was beautiful, I didn’t anticipate the level of deep healing and rest I needed afterward. Without family in the area, we needed help! That’s where Kelsi came in.
Kelsi’s gentle and supportive presence was truly a gift. She was attentive, listening to our needs and providing aid where we needed it most. For us, that meant personalized nourishing meals & snacks that fit my dietary and constitutional needs (which were so delicious!), herbal concoctions and postpartum body tending including moxi for womb support, herbal sitz, massage, and helping with baby carrying. Not to mention our wonderful conversations and her kind ear - a must for new parents!
We felt cared for and trusted Kelsi’s capable hands and compassionate heart. I feel so lucky to have had her in our corner & cocoon during such a tender, yet sacred and transformative time.”
— Venessa Rodriguez, Postpartum Client
