Our mission is to make postnatal care essential

My husband and I were working 12 hour days and weekends to ensure the success of our first company. Within a day of our first child’s birth in 2010, a beautiful and healthy girl, I was back to work and on the phone.

 

However, after our son’s C-section birth in 2014, my body felt the weight of juggling recovery, work and family. Meanwhile I knew that many cities around the world have dedicated facilities for postnatal care.

 

I couldn’t fathom how New York City did not offer a place for new moms and their babies to rest and recover after birth. So we decided to start one.

What we believe

Supported Mother, Strong Start

As a mother, you will put your child first in all things. Which is why we put you first. Growing a child, bringing them into the world, nourishing them once born – you are giving your literal all. We are here to care for you, providing the space, time and support you need to rest, recover and feel ready for home.

Evidence-Based Essential Care

The research is clear: Dedicated postnatal care improves the health and well-being of mothers and their babies. Our model of care – including nourishing foods, therapeutic services and recovery support – is built on evidence-based practices and modern medical research. By focusing on the needs of the mother in the postnatal stage, we are helping her to prioritize her own health, now and in the future.

After the rush of birth, Boram is a calm, comfortable, secure space for you (and your partner) to bond with baby while surrounded by helping hands. From lactation and feeding assistance to basic baby care, our professionally trained team is here for you 24/7, whatever you need, filling in for “the village” that’s difficult to find in today’s world.
