Postnatal Support

Mara Cunha

Empowering and Supporting Families


I love supporting families postnatally. Being welcomed into a family's journey and guiding them as they navigate the shifting sands of the 'fourth trimester' is truly both a joy and a privilege.
I bring my knowledge and experience from years of working with families across Sydney the Eora Nation during this very tender time. Each family has individual needs. My doula support is tailored and my experience and intuition means that this support is delivered in a way that ensures those needs are met.

Breast Feeding Support

Establishing breastfeeding can be challenging. Our gentle, non-judgemental qualified lactation consultant can support you and your baby through the early weeks. Rose Mother Doula Care can provide in-home breastfeeding support in Sydney or phone & Skype support Australia wide.

Sleep Support

Some babies need a little encouragement to learn good sleep habits. Our certified Sleep Consultant can help you and your bub get a sound sleep. Our experienced and highly trained sleep consultant uses a proven no-cry method to support a better sleep for everyone in your family.

Night Care

We incredible resources and contacts to registered nurses that are available 24/7 to help you.

“ I was invited to be present and be part of that magical moment.
The moment I saw her baby boy, I knew I want to become a Doula.”
