About Nurture by Touch
I honour the 4th trimester of a Mothers life where I am with her everyday for two to four weeks post birth. My care involves the ancient lineage of care through Jamu massage, 3 layers of binding and wrapping and Jamu abdominal herbs. I support the healing process physically, emotionally and mentally.

Why Hiring Postpartum In-Home Support Can Transform Your Recovery
If I had my way, support would be non-negotiable and, in an ideal world, would have government funding, so everyone can access the help we all deserve. We can shape our families' and therefore babies' complete outcomes (and lives!) by providing education, but above all, support in those early days. It is essential for a mother who has given birth to rest and recover.
