Daily Healing – Wochenbett Art

€1,400 · 20 hours of daily postpartum care and guided ritual.

Summary

The Wochenbett is a German postpartum tradition that takes recovery seriously. Rather than getting back to normal as quickly as possible, you rest, you heal, and you are genuinely looked after. This offering brings that tradition into your home across twenty hours of dedicated, in-person care.

Daily visits

Visits are structured around what you actually need that day. Some days that means practical support: feeding guidance, newborn care, light household tasks so you can sleep. Other days it means sitting with you, helping you process your birth experience, or being a calm, informed presence while you find your feet as a mother.
