Quotes by Salle Webber (?)

“In my work as a doula, my focus is on the mother. I want to help her to feel comfortable, nourished, relaxed and appreciated; to facilitate a harmonious transition for both mother and child in those most profound first days and weeks after birth. A mother needs someone who cares about how many times the baby woke to nurse in the night, how many diapers were changed, how her breasts are feeling.”
― Salle Webber, The Gentle Art of Newborn Family Care: A Guide for Postpartum Doulas and Caregivers
