Ask anything. There is no wrong place to begin.

You can reach out during pregnancy to plan ahead or after your baby arrives if you realize you need more support. Families are encouraged to connect by 35 to 36 weeks of pregnancy when possible, but same-week requests are welcome when LaTesha has availability.

The length of support depends on the package you choose and your family’s needs. Rooted in Grace offers one intentional visit, three-visit support, and six-visit support, with additional daytime hours available when scheduling allows.

Support can include newborn-care education, feeding support within the non-medical doula scope, emotional encouragement, rest support, light household assistance, meal preparation, and helping families feel more confident in new routines.

Yes. Overnight support is included in the personalized care plan for The Rooted and The Flourish packages. A full overnight is an eight-hour, non-medical care arrangement scheduled around what works for the family, such as 10 PM to 6 AM or 11 PM to 7 AM. Evening and overnight support begins at $250 for 4 hours, is $350 for 6 hours, and is $450 for a full 8 hours. Availability is confirmed directly before care is scheduled.

Depending on your family’s agreed plan, overnight support can include newborn care while a parent rests, feeding logs, diapering, soothing, bottle washing, and light postpartum-related reset support. It is not traditional babysitting, medical care, or deep cleaning.
