Postpartum Doula Support
Parenthood and the postpartum journey are unique experiences for everyone – ones that truly take a village. I am passionate about being part of that community by helping you navigate your “new normal” and providing wisdom, emotional support, and hands-on help. My goal is to help parents and children thrive together, and create an environment where you feel celebrated, empowered, and confident in your ability to care for your baby and yourself.
I approach each family with a wealth of knowledge, resources and guidance so that you can focus on bonding with your baby and healing. I see my role as your postpartum doula as one of a mentor by adapting my support to meet your evolving needs, whether it’s helping with postpartum recovery and nutrition, breastfeeding and pumping, or newborn care techniques like baby-wearing and infant sleep.
Each visit is designed to leave you feeling well-cared-for and nourished, both physically and emotionally. As you meet your baby and transform into the parent you’re becoming, I am honored to share this experience with you and create a space that feels calm, comforting, and full of joy.
I work really well with parents who are interested in a collaborative relationship as it helps to better tailor my support to your needs. I’ve also enjoyed clients who bring a balance of intentional planning with lighthearted humor to their postpartum journey, finding that both are important when working together.

Postpartum Day vs. Night Visits
The role of a postpartum doula is fluid and changes from family to family, day to day, hour to hour depending on your family’s needs. We will meet you and your family wherever you’re at in the moment, but here is a snapshot of what a typical day visit and overnight visit can look like:

Get an update upon arrival and establish goals for the day.
Discuss any questions or concerns you may have regarding recovery, newborn care, feeding, sibling adjustment, etc.
Care for the baby so you can nap, shower, spend time with your older child, do some work, or just take a break.
Offer support and guidance with feeding challenges.
Assist you with bathing the baby or clipping their nails.
Load the dishwasher and sanitize bottles and pump parts.
Prepare some healthy snacks or a meal.
Provide a written timeline of the baby’s activities and the care provided.
Night Support
Get an update upon arrival and establish your goals for the night.
Discuss any questions or concerns you may have regarding newborn care, newborn sleep, feeding, etc.
Create a plan for feeding the baby in the night to maximize your ability to sleep, which may include at least one feeding with a bottle, finger syringe, or cup.
