Care that meets you the day you come home

The drive home from UCLA Westwood is short. The fourth trimester is not. Plenty of Brentwood and Westwood families are balancing demanding careers and a full Westside life, and the first weeks at home are where recovery is either truly supported or quietly survived alone.

Sanhu House exists for the mother's recovery, not only the baby's care. A trained doula arrives at your door, your care equipment is set up and ready, and your recovery plan has already been built with you by your Maternal Care Specialist. You rest while someone capable handles the rest.

What we offer in Brentwood

THE CARE
In-home daytime recovery
Daily doula-led care in your Brentwood home, in 6–12 hour shifts.
  • Doula-led recovery and education
  • Sanhujori-inspired rituals, including warm postpartum snacks, teas, and hydration tracking
  • Wraparound concierge service that coordinates your whole care team
  • Light home support and care equipment setup

Prefer a hotel retreat? Our flagship retreat, The Stay, is a luxury hotel experience based in Santa Monica. It's a separate option from in-home Brentwood care. If a retreat-style stay interests you, we're happy to walk you through it on your intro call.

More than one doula: a coordinated team

A single doula covers one shift. Sanhu House coordinates a full network of doulas, IBCLCs, and a dedicated Care Team, connected through Sanhu Circle, where your questions get answered between shifts, day or night.

For families navigating IVF, a NICU stay, or a higher-anxiety recovery, that coordination is the difference between feeling handled and feeling alone. It's the same gold standard of structure and expertise whether care happens during the day or overnight.

What a day with The Care looks like

Arrival
Your doula arrives, checks in on how you slept, and takes the morning so you can rest or shower without the baby monitor in hand.
Midday
Warm, nourishing food and tea; a recovery ritual; feeding and lactation support if you want it; gentle education at your pace.
Afternoon
Newborn care and soothing while you nap, light home reset, and answers to the questions piling up in your head.
Anytime
Between shifts, Sanhu Circle keeps you connected. Message a doula, IBCLC, or coordinator and get a real answer.

What it costs & how insurance helps

Cost depends on whether you choose daytime care, overnight care, or both, and how long each shift runs. Rather than a one-size price, we'll map a plan to your recovery and your budget on a free intro call.

Sanhu House is an approved Carrot provider, and we can coordinate Kaiser pathways depending on eligibility. We provide superbills and itemized documentation so you're ready to submit for reimbursement.

Common questions from Brentwood families

Do you provide in-home postpartum care in Brentwood?

Yes. Sanhu House provides in-home daytime doula care and overnight newborn support throughout Brentwood, including Brentwood, Westwood, and the surrounding Westside. Care can begin the day you come home.

How is this different from hiring a single doula?

A solo doula covers one shift. Sanhu House coordinates a full team of doulas, IBCLCs, and a Care Team, connected through Sanhu Circle, a dedicated support channel between your shifts. You get a coordinated recovery, not a single pair of hands.

What does it cost, and does insurance cover it?

It depends on daytime vs. overnight care and shift length. Sanhu House is an approved Carrot provider, coordinates Kaiser pathways depending on eligibility, and provides superbills for reimbursement through Maven, Anthem, UnitedHealthcare, and others. The intro call is the fastest way to get a real estimate.

Is overnight newborn care available in Brentwood?

Yes. The Nights provides overnight doula coverage in Brentwood: infant soothing and feeding, bottle prep and sterilization, sleep tracking, and a warmth turndown ritual, so parents can actually sleep.

When should I book?

Most Brentwood families plan during the third trimester so a doula is ready the week baby arrives. We can often accommodate shorter notice, and the intro call is the fastest way to check availability for your due date.
