🧺 We have an exciting announcement! We have officially launched DUENOLA’s Fresh Start Laundry Program. 🙌🏾 We’re proud to launch a “Pay-What-You-Can” laundry service for postpartum families in the Algiers/Westbank area with infants up to 12 months old. ✨ We pick up. We wash. We fold. We drop off. No income requirements! Your participation lighten your load while supporting our mission to improve maternal and infant health across New Orleans. 📍Service Area: Algiers & Westbank (Orleans Parish) 📞 Call or text 504-312-3103 to check availability. Space is limited. Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with a new parent who could use a little extra support. 💜 #DUENOLA  #PostpartumSupport #NewOrleansFamilies #MaternalHealth #communitycare
Everyday, do something towards your goal. It may seem like a little now but that little will mean a whole lot months from now, years from now. A chapter is written one word at a time. #happymonday #goodmorning #community #building #doula
Yesterday we held our community paint, where we invited community in to be with us and assist us in painting the house. This a very vulnerable process of allowing people into our birthspace, that is incomplete and becoming. But you don’t just need community when things are perfect. When you really need community is when things are little ugly and a bit shakey. So here we are, beautifully stabilizing things with community helps. #community #building #doula #postpartum #buildingahouse
@latoyathegoddess 👑 We put the roots in grassroots! We have prayed and are doing this work in joy. Led by the critical thought and liberation praxis of a Black Indigenous woman from Louisiana. #neworleanslife #neworleanslouisiana #doula #postpartum #buildingahouse
Shhh…I know that we’ve been quiet but our team is digging in to the building process. Blessings to our fearless leader @latoyathegoddess for picking up the paint brush when the contractors said it will save us money if we painted the house ourselves. If you want to support our work please check our bio or go www.DUENOLA.org to make a monetary donation to our postpartum space. 🙏🏾❤️ #doula #buildingahouse #postpartum #postpartumcare #fyp

Many have asked, “how can I help?” Well, we could use a hand dreaming this garden space! 1. Do you have garden bed materials 2. Can you build a trellis? 3. Do you know about water irrigation and runoff? 4. Do you know about sustainable foods and herbs for postpartum families? 5. Can you come and help us? 🫶🏾 #doula #buildingahouse #postpartum #postpartumcare #healing
#teamwork makes the #dream #work We are building a postpartum house. The answer to community need and what we have at our disposal.
Get you some of this #blackgurljoy this morning via @dianne_jones000 @chanel_the_goddess316 @nub_omisayade_sun We hope it makes you giggle and smile a lil bit, as we all need #morejoy and #lessstress
Thanks to the strength, courage, and wisdom of our Intake Coordinator @chanel_the_goddess316 we were able to get this postpartum mama house. There are so many others who are in need of courageous care. Support our work today!
Nasty work! Welp, they said they were #prolife and we said show us how? And here we go! Children and no food. 🤷🏾‍♀️ #foodcuts #farmlife #women #children
We have babies y’all. Of course we do! I go away and come back to babies. 😭🙏🏾 #chicks #fertility #babies #buildingahouse #postpartum
We not just building a physical space, we are seeding a beautiful team that is leaderful! Each healer bringing something unique to the world of postpartum care. This is grassroots at its finest, in a place where it’s needed the most! #postpartum #care #housing #resources #doula
This vision is so above me now! 🤣🤣🤦🏾‍♀️ The way I’ve had to hang right on in there, knowing that some day we would get here. Day after day, when I didn’t want to drive, or show up, or hear another voice. But did I die? Nope, but I am thriving, we are thriving. #doula #love #healing #makingspace #dosomething
I keep telling folks that my mama’s name is Favor and I’m the child of Favor. And she may not be fair but she is my mama so…💅🏾 #favor #favorite #healing #growing #daily
I stopped asking for permission a long time ago. Less talking, more action. 💅🏾 #build #postpartum #doula #house #healing
This Spring is abundant and busy! Besides building a postpartum house, crafting a garden, leading TWO organizations, and starting my midwifery training - I’ve been co-loving chickens for my neighbor whose grandmother passed and she needed to return home. Raising chickens is low effort but not no effort. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️ #rooster #chickens #doula #studentmidwife #fypシ
It’s going good! That’s it and that’s all. 🙌🏾 #buildingahouse #postpartum #doula #affirmations #noweapon
For all those who didn’t vote during the early voting period, tomorrow is your chance to show up and show out, like my beautiful gardenias! #govote #vote #louisiana #orleans #orleansparish
