Postpartum Support in Newquay

Nurturing Services for New Mums and their babies to Heal, Be Supported and thrive in this new chapter

The postpartum period is a time of deep transition, where your body, mind, and emotions are all adjusting to life after birth. It’s a season that deserves gentle care, understanding, and support. Whether you’re navigating physical recovery, emotional shifts, or simply seeking guidance through those early newborn days, there are a variety of postpartum services available in Newquay and North Cornwall designed to meet your needs.

I’ve gathered a list of local offerings, from postpartum doulas and lactation support to bodywork therapies like massage and pelvic floor care. These services are here to hold space for your healing, helping you feel seen, nurtured, and fully supported as you move through this sacred chapter.

I am not affiliated with any of the below (apart from my own offerings as a postpartum doula) — but I hope this guide becomes a valuable resource as you seek the support that feels right for you.

• Postpartum Doulas

  I encourage you to go for a coffee with a few doulas and feel out who you vibe best with. It will make a world of difference and ensure you have the right person on your team during this special time. ❤️
