About Milk & Myrrh 

Where Recovery Becomes Ritual

Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Hannah, founder of Milk & Myrrh and a holistic postpartum doula devoted to supporting mothers through one of life’s most sacred and transformative seasons.

I believe postpartum is a sacred threshold — a time of rawness, deep transformation, and immense potential for healing. This season deserves reverence, not rush. Care during this time should honor not only the arrival of a baby, but also the healing, identity, and transformation of the mother herself.

My work is shaped by both lived experience and continued study in Ayurveda, herbalism, aromatherapy, restorative nutrition, massage, and postpartum recovery. My approach blends ancestral wisdom, attentive support, and evidence-based practices to foster healing gently and intentionally.

This season asks for warmth, rest, deep replenishment, and care that allows the nervous system and body to soften — not pressure to quickly return to who you were before.

Milk & Myrrh was created as a space where mothers can feel supported, restored, and gently held through the fourth trimester — whether through virtual guidance, meal preparation, or in-home postpartum care in the Sedona area.

Care during this season is not about doing more.

It is about removing what is unnecessary so the body can recover, restore, and reorient.

Everything here is rooted in that philosophy:

less overwhelm, more holding.

CARE HELD IN

The way you are cared for shapes
the way you remember this season.

Warmth 

Creating spaces of softness, rest, and steady support during the earliest weeks postpartum.

Nourishment

Through grounding meals, herbal care, and rhythms that replenish both body and spirit.

Emotional Holding

Witnessing your experience with gentleness, presence, and compassionate support.

Rhythm

Helping your family settle into sustainable rhythms that honor both recovery and connection.

Rejuvenation

Supporting deep restoration so you feel cared for, replenished, and slowly returned to yourself.

With love and blessings,
