Living Your Sparked Second Half

The Doula Decision That Changed Her Life with Valerie Trumbower


Listen Later

EP234: My guest for this week’s podcast is Valerie Trumbower, a DONA Certified Postpartum Doula, a Certified Lactation Counselor and a mother of three, including identical twins. Her online courses, The Bump-to-Baby Roadmap & Expecting 101...You’re Adopting™ have helped hundreds of families (and grandparents!) prepare for life with their newborns. 
Over the past 8 years Valerie has been helping hundreds of parents adjust to their new family so that they can approach the newborn stage with as much calm confidence as possible. And so that they know what to do with their little newborns.
In this episode, Valerie and I talked about:
Understanding what a Doula is and what they do
How she learned about postpartum and birth Doula and how she started
Best qualities to look out for if you want to be a Doula
Necessary tips for grandparents to best help our children navigate new babies
Many people are probably not familiar with what a postpartum doula is. You may decide to explore becoming a doula, hiring a doula for their kids or benefit from the advice Valerie gives on supporting new parents (their children) as they become parents.
Bonus content from Valerie: EXPECTING A GRANDCHILD? YOU SHOULD WATCH THIS BEFORE YOUR GRANDBABY ARRIVES!
