Being cared for by Eli

Recovering from hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) and a traumatic birth can make the postpartum period feel overwhelming, isolating, and physically exhausting. Your body may still be healing from months of severe nausea, dehydration, and nutritional depletion, while your nervous system may be processing fear, loss of control, or medical trauma from pregnancy or birth.

As a Honolulu postpartum doula specializing in hyperemesis gravidarum and birth trauma, I provide trauma-informed, in-home support designed to help you rest, recover, and reconnect with your body after a difficult pregnancy or delivery. My care centers your lived experience — not just your baby’s needs — because healing from HG and trauma requires more than routine newborn help.

Postpartum support may include:
• Gentle newborn care so you can sleep and stabilize
• Emotional support after medical or traumatic birth experiences
• Feeding support without pressure or judgment
• Help rebuilding strength and nourishment after prolonged illness
• A calm, non-clinical presence in your home
• Respect for sensory needs, triggers, and pacing

Whether your pregnancy was shaped by hyperemesis gravidarum, hospitalization, emergency interventions, or loss of control, you deserve postpartum care that feels safe, validating, and supportive — not rushed or dismissive.

If you are looking for an Oahu postpartum doula for HG recovery or birth trauma support, this space is for you.

  • "Eli was incredibly helpful during some of our most vulnerable moments. I did not know what I was doing when I began my lactation journey, but was on a tight time table due to impending cancer treatment. She was able to coach me through ways in which I could support my goals without sacrificing my mental sanity. She provided overnight care for my child, enabling me to focus on storing breastmilk and getting much-needed sleep. Because Eli is a mother, I felt secure knowing that she knew what to look for if something went wrong with my baby overnight."

    M.G.

  • "Eli provided overnight care for our newborn through six months. She made healthy postpartum meals and gave extensive postpartum advice dealing with topics from lactation to best ways to manage each new baby stage."

    G.M.

  • "I didn’t really know what to expect going into it, but Eli ended up being incredibly helpful and supportive. Her guidance, presence, and care made a huge difference during my postpartum period, and I’m so grateful for the support she provided."

  • "The most valuable part of working with Eli was her calming presence and deep knowledge during such a vulnerable time. She made me feel supported, confident, and truly cared for"
