Sanhujori-inspired postpartum care, delivered by doulas trained in Korean recovery traditions and Western newborn care. Every plan is built around the three things a recovering mother actually needs: warmth, nourishment and rest.

Seven thoughtful steps, with our team beside you through each one.

  1. Book an intro call

    Your contract and Care Orientation guide walk you through exactly what to expect.

Get to Know Us.

  • "Contacting Sanhu House was the best decision we ever made. All first time parents should heavily consider utilizing their services for at home doula care. [...] I was able to rest as much as possible. I was also able to build quite a healthy milk supply thanks to my doulas and their support overnight. Sanhu House also worked with us and our [Carrot Fertility] benefits which really helped us stretch our dollars. Thanks Sanhu House!"
