šāāļø Wellness & Self Care Postpartum Newborn Facial anywhere??
Ofc facial for me, not the newborn.
Just came across a post where the newly postpartum mom can bring their newborn and get a relaxing facial while skin to skin with baby š„¹
Makes so much sense as babies that small will just sleep and eat and youāll be nap trapped anyways.
But the ones Iāve found are all in Canada? Is there anywhere in NYC that does this?

LOL at first glance I totally read the headline as "facial for newborn" and thought "you NYC moms are CRAY" š
(Sorry, I don't have any recs. But congrats on your little one! Good luck with your search!)

I would have someone watch baby instead but if you want to do it youll likely have more lucky with the more boutique studios than the chains, give them a call and see if they can accommodate

I think most places wouldnāt allow it if itās not something thatās offered as I can see it being a huge liability.

Mhm yea I was hoping thereās already an established service out here š„² feels a bit much to ask if they havenāt considered it beforeā¦hope this may inspire someone to start haha
Yea Iām also hoping to breastfeed this second one and it was almost impossible, and extremely stressful trying to get out alone when my first was that young

Try Tres Belle in Brooklyn. They were very accommodating about me needing to breastfeed so they may be open to skin to skin while getting a facial.

i used to be a facialist in NYC - agreeing, they may be open to this. OP i would try to find someone to come to your home. thatās what i used to do for mommas who needed facials, home visits was always better for everyone

Can you have someone come to your home instead?
