Zuo Yue Zi Care was founded on the belief that every new mother deserves postpartum support that honors her cultural heritage. We bridge the gap between families seeking culturally aligned care and the skilled doulas who provide it.
坐月子 (Zuò Yuè Zi), literally "sitting the month," is a traditional Chinese postpartum practice spanning over 2,000 years. It prescribes a period of rest, warming foods, and specialized care for new mothers in the weeks following childbirth.
Similar traditions exist across Asian cultures — from the Korean Sanhujori to the Vietnamese Nằm Ổ — each emphasizing rest, nourishment, and community support during the critical postpartum window.
Our platform connects families with practitioners who deeply understand these traditions and can provide authentic, culturally attuned care.
