SANCTUARY OFFERS
Maternal Health Coaching
Pregnancy and early motherhood can feel both transformative and disorienting. You may have excellent providers and in-home support—yet still find yourself navigating questions, symptoms, and decisions in the space between appointments.
Maternal health coaching provides a steady, relationship-based presence within your Sanctuary care experience—offering personalized guidance beginning during pregnancy, postpartum, or across both. It is the connective support that helps you make sense of what’s happening in your body, prepare for what’s ahead, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Why Health Coaching?
Sanctuary’s postpartum doulas provide exceptional in-home care. Your medical team offers clinical expertise. But many families find there’s a gap between those touchpoints—especially during pregnancy and the transition into postpartum life.
Health coaching fills that space.
It provides:
A consistent point person across your experience
Time to explore symptoms and questions in depth
Preparation before appointments and clarity afterward
Ongoing accountability and reassurance
Support navigating both health and identity shifts
This is not medical care or therapy. It is relationship-based, integrative support designed to help you feel informed, grounded, and confident in your health decisions, daily choices, and next steps.

How Health Coaching Integrates with Your Sanctuary Care
Health coaching does not replace your medical team or doula. Instead, it strengthens Sanctuary’s comprehensive care model by bridging the space between appointments and in-home support.
You receive hands-on care through your postpartum doula, while also having a dedicated health partner to help navigate the questions and decisions that arise between visits.
Together, this integrated approach supports both your physical health and your overall well-being.
Who It’s For
Health coaching may be a strong fit for:
Pregnant clients planning postpartum care who want coordinated support spanning pregnancy and early motherhood
Pregnant or postpartum clients seeking continuous, relationship-based support
Pregnant clients navigating gestational diabetes
Pregnant or postpartum clients with thyroid, gut, or autoimmune conditions
Postpartum clients who feel something is off with their health, energy, or recovery but aren’t sure where to begin.
