At this stage, I would say that the best thing you can do is to support your wife so that she can concentrate on the baby, and take the opportunity to care for the baby when your wife is tired.

I would echo what actd has said, ask your wife what support she would like. Mum's hormones can be all over the place after having a baby, sometimes she might like you to cook and clean so she can focus on the baby, sometimes she might like you to care for the baby so that she can have a relaxing bath or cook a meal etc.....I would say try to communicate as much as you can but be prepared that what works on one day, may not on the next one. Having a new baby can be exhausting for both of you and it's very easy to stop communicating with each other and if you're not communicating, you won't be able to support each other.
