Get the Most From Your Night Doula and Get More Sleep With Kristin Revere of Gold Coast Doulas

39 min • 22 februari 2025

I don't know about you, but one of my top goals as a parent of a newborn was getting more sleep. A night doula is a great addition to any postpartum dream team because they will help with achieving exactly that - more sleep. More sleep for you, your other family members in your household, your baby.

It's perfectly normal for newborns to be awake multiple times during the night (just ask PhD Sleep Consultant Dr Millette). And, it's also true that sleep deprivation is associated with an increased risk of postpartum anxiety and depression. Plus, sleep is simply wonderful.

In this episode, we talk with Kristin Revere, a doula and the founder of Gold Coast Doulas. She's also the author of Supported: Your Guide to Birth and Baby. We talk about how to get the most out of your night doula experience, including:

  • Hiring the right person, what to check and ask
  • Costs and affordability
  • Benefits
  • A typical night with a night doula
  • What to expect: practical, mental, social, emotional support examples

Wishing you happy family sleep!
