Postpartum, Lactation, and Newborn Care

Mothers put their babies first, which is why Blue Skies puts you first. Our Postpartum, Lactation, and Newborn Care services are designed to support the well-being of both mothers and babies.

​

We understand that every family’s routine is unique, so we provide care tailored to your schedule. Whether you need daytime support, overnight care, or a combination of both, our flexible scheduling allows you to book sessions when you need them most.

​

Blue Skies nurses are here to help you adjust and focus on your family’s well-being every step of the way. Our approach encourages partners, siblings, and loved ones to be involved in the postpartum journey, creating a nurturing environment that supports daily rhythms that work for your family, from feeding schedules to self-care practices.

"Shani’s services have helped our family immensely. Since I live 700 miles away and only get to Steamboat every other month, Shani is our “eyes and ears.” She takes wonderful care of my 90-year-old mother. She checks my mother out physically from head to toe twice weekly, applies lotion to her dry skin every visit, walks her to provide some physical therapy, and so forth. She even took my mom to the doctor for me when I couldn’t. Now that we have hired Shani, I truly have peace of mind."
