Posted: July 20, 2025
Are you a passionate Postpartum Doula ready to make a profound difference in the lives of new families? Rebirth is thrilled to be growing our team, and we're looking for dedicated doulas to provide compassionate, in-home support to parents navigating the beautiful, often challenging, transition to life with a new baby.
At Rebirth, we believe in creating a nurturing "village" for expectant and new parents. Our goal is to empower families, support their well-being, and ensure mothers feel truly important as they embark on the incredible task of raising the future. This isn't just a job; it's an opportunity to be a crucial part of a family's foundational experience.
About the Role:
As a Postpartum Doula with Rebirth, you'll be the warm, supportive presence new parents need during one of the most transformative times in their lives. Your primary role will be to offer in-home support, helping families adjust to life with a newborn. This includes:
Emotional Support: Providing empathetic listening, encouragement, and a non-judgmental space for parents to process their experiences.
Newborn Care Guidance: Offering practical assistance and education on newborn care, such as feeding (breastfeeding and bottle-feeding), soothing techniques, diapering, and sleep cues.
Parental Nurturing: Preparing light meals/snacks, organizing the nursery, and assisting with light household tasks to create a calm and supportive environment.
Sibling Integration: Helping older siblings adjust to the new family dynamic.
Resource & Referral: Connecting families with local resources and community support as needed.
A Special Focus on Mental Health: This is a particularly exciting opportunity for doulas who have a keen interest in maternal and parental mental health. You'll be skilled at observing, listening, and offering support that can positively impact parental well-being during a vulnerable time, knowing when to provide comfort and when to suggest professional mental health resources.
Who We're Looking For:
We're seeking Postpartum Doulas who are:
Certified Postpartum Doula (or in the process of certification) with relevant experience.
Deeply empathetic and intuitive, with a genuine desire to support new families.
Knowledgeable about newborn care, postpartum recovery, and common challenges faced by new parents.
Excellent communicators, both verbally and in writing.
Reliable, punctual, and highly professional, while maintaining a warm and approachable demeanor.
Passionate about maternal/parent mental health and comfortable in a supportive role that recognizes its importance.
Able to work independently in clients' homes and adapt to various family dynamics.
Hold current CPR and First Aid certification.
Why Join the Rebirth Team?
Be Part of a Village: Join a clinic that values community, connection, and holistic support for families.
Meaningful Work: Every day, you'll make a tangible difference in the lives of new parents, helping them thrive.
Collaborative Environment: Work alongside a dedicated team of holistic health professionals.
Focus on Well-being: We prioritize the well-being of our team members as much as our clients.
Opportunities for Growth: For doulas interested in mental health, this role offers unique exposure and a chance to deepen your understanding and impact in this critical area.
