Services
Baby Blessing Cooking Party
This is at the heart of the services I offer.
What: Gather a small group of your community of family and friends to help cook for you in the postpartum period. This is a fantastic opportunity to bring your loved ones together to help you prepare to nourish your body as you heal and bond with your new baby. This will provide you with 1 to 2 nourishing, high quality meals every day for 4 to 6 weeks postpartum. These parties are light-hearted and celebratory.
What you'll need to do: You will choose the guests you want to invite, which recipes to cook from a few options provided, and a date for when you would like to hold the party.
What I'll do: I will provide the invitations and communication with guests, the cooking space, ingredients, preparation, storage options, clean up, freezing of the food, and the food delivery.
Sliding scale price: $1200 - 2000.
This usually makes 90 to 115 portions of food.
Please note: This price includes all ingredients, which usually cost $500 to 600.
Timing: 3 hours per cooking party

Immediate Postpartum Home Meet & Greet Support
If your baby is born at the hospital or a birth center and you would like support immediately upon arriving home, this is a wonderful additional option for your family.
I will greet you at your home, take and do your laundry from birth, greet you with homemade bone broth and tea, hold your baby while you enjoy a warm shower with a homemade scrub, and then tidy up anything from laboring at home.
Sliding scale price: $300 - 500
Timing: 4 hours upon arriving home

Nutritional Guidance throughout the Lifecycle
I also provide individual nutrition support therapy to assist you at other stages in your journey - from menstrual support to preconception, pregnancy to postpartum, or even introducing solids to your baby.
This can include an individual consult via Zoom or in person, a guided grocery store or farmers market tour, or an in-home cooking workshop.
Sliding scale price: $175 - 300
Timing: 90 minutes, as needed
Why sliding scale?
The price on the lower end covers my costs to run my business; any price above that allows me the opportunity to provide services free of charge or at reduced cost to folks in need and to donate a cooking party as an auction item for a nonprofit fundraiser once per year.
There is absolutely no expectation on the price point you choose to pay.
Please contact me if these prices are out of your budget.
