Real Stories, Real Transformations: What Our Mothers Are Saying

Elizabeth H.-West Hollywood, CA.

“Courtney was the best decision I made as a part of my postpartum care. Walking into my house from the hospital to the smell of delicious food, warming teas, and the comfort of knowing I didn’t have to think about what to eat in order to nourish my body my first day home, was everything. Courtney’s presence brought me so much ease. As a new mom I really had no idea what to expect from my body or my baby, but her knowledge of how to care for a mother and baby with food was all the medicine a postpartum mother could ask for. I will undoubtedly have her back for every birth! “

Mary T.-Marina Del Ray

“It has been such a weight off to know that I am caring for my body during these challenging days after giving birth.I avoided a lot of exhaustion and other negative symptoms by following this guidance. I felt safe with in our protective bubble in the first couples of weeks because Courtney made use feel so comfortable in our home.”

Jill D.

Los Angeles

“Courtney is one of the most compassionate, knowledgeable and supportive women I have ever met.

The food.Oh wow! The food.Warm spiced porridges, nutrient dense dahl’s, kichari’s, stewed fruits, the list goes on and on.

Her wealth of knowledge extends not only to creating delicious nutrition, but also deeper into the holistic world of Ayurveda, mind-body connection and physical restoration that new moms desperately need. From food to bath soaks curated for individual needs.

She was a true angel after I had my twins, and helped me both physically and mentally. She listens intently and truly makes you feel heard and seen. She even nudged me to refrain some of my stories I was telling myself about my birth & my boys being in the NICU for which I am forever grateful.

She has become not only a resource I believe every woman should have during postpartum, but also a friend. She is the one woman you want by your side cheering you on during those first 42 days & beyond.

Thank you for Courtney/Mothersource for being such a light for me!”

Elizabeth-Los Feliz, Ca

“I had the best experience working with Courtney! I felt her support during the whole process. Each session offered the perfect amount of guidance, reassurance, nurturing and preparation. Her loving nature and the planned care package were what my body needed- not only to bounce back, but to (blossom into a better version of myself) and assist me into this new phase of life. Her services helped me transition into this new phase as a more whole, complete person. I felt more grounded and comforted after each session. I would not have had the resources (time, energy) or clarity of mind to tend to these important details of caring for myself during this critical time. Courtney made it easy to fit this wholesome model of daily living seamless into my life in a was I continue to implement daily.”

Stephanie-Pacific Palisades

"Courtney’s guidance provided answers to questions I didn’t even know to ask. She provided me the feeling of safety and healthy choices for me and my baby.Experiencing the passing of care and nurturing from another mother and guide is a lost art and something every pregnant woman should consider.”

FAQs

What is Ayurvedic Postpartum Care?

Ayurvedic postpartum care integrates ancient practices with modern wellness to offer mothers the nutrition, body care, and emotional support they need to recover fully after childbirth.

When a mother receives the right care and support after birth, deep rejuvenation takes place. Her body heals from pregnancy and birth, while addressing deeper physical, emotional, and spiritual imbalances—even those from before pregnancy.

This nurturing care strengthens her bond with her baby, deepens her relationship with her partner, and leaves her feeling grounded, strong, and calm as she steps into motherhood with confidence and support.
