Given the increased public recognition, Doula Network of Long
Island has taken the steps to offer support for women (and families)
diagnosed with postpartum depression and or other perinatal mood
disorders. Our doula's have taken extensive training in helping
families with postpartum depression.
Our support is practical: Caring for older siblings, preparing
meals, etc.; and in addition, and most importantly, doulas also
provide the knowledgeable care and emotional support to mom as
she struggles back from the darkness of depression. As a result,
of this compassionate, knowledgeable support and care, her husband
and family too benefits because they know she is being cared for
and everyday activities such as jobs and school will go on.
