Find Doula Jobs in Astoria, NY

We are in Long Island City and are looking for a practical, evidence-based postpartum professional for recurring overnight newborn support, ideally around 10 p.m.–8 a.m. or another 10-hour window, beginning shortly after birth and continuing for roughly 4–8 weeks. We are looking for hands-on newborn care, feeding/pump/bottle support, soothing, diapering, safe-sleep knowledge, and clear handoff notes in the morning. We also strongly prefer someone comfortable with baby laundry, washing bottles and pump parts, light tidying/kitchen reset, simple meal prep, and keeping baby supplies organized. Could you share: (1) your availability around our due date; (2) the maximum recurring overnights you can commit to each week; (3) whether you remain awake while the baby sleeps or rest during quiet periods; (4) exactly which household tasks you handle; (5) certifications, CPR/first-aid status, vaccinations, background-check process, and references; and (6) your rate, minimum commitment, cancellation policy, and backup coverage?

Hello! We are pregnant with our first child and I am really interested in having a Doula. I am a patient at Oula seeing their team of midwives and plan to deliver at Mount Sinai West. I live in Astoria, Queens. I am hopeful to have an unmedicated, natural birth and would like to learn as many breathing, movement, push positions, etc as possible to help achieve this goal. I am currently on Anthem BCBS Medicaid as a graduate student and have a tighter budget, but understand the importance of the care and knowledge that doulas provide.

We are expecting our first baby this fall and are looking for an experienced, warm, and reliable newborn care provider to support our family in Manhattan during the early postpartum period. We do not have family nearby who will be able to provide regular hands-on help, so we are hoping to find someone who can help us feel more supported and confident as first-time parents. We are especially interested in someone with significant newborn and infant experience, ideally at least 3–5 years. Infant CPR/First Aid certification is strongly preferred, and experience or training as a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, baby nurse, or similar provider would be a plus. We do not require a second language. The primary responsibility will be helping care for our newborn, including feeding support, diapering, soothing, burping, bottle preparation and cleaning, and helping us establish healthy, age-appropriate sleep habits. If I am breastfeeding or pumping, we would also appreciate someone who is comfortable supporting those routines and coordinating bottles or feeds as needed. We are not looking for strict sleep training with a very young newborn, but we would value someone knowledgeable about newborn sleep who can help us gradually establish good routines. We would also appreciate light baby-related household help during downtime, such as washing bottles and pump parts, baby laundry, tidying the nursery and baby areas, restocking changing supplies, and occasionally preparing a simple meal or snack for me. We are not looking for a full housekeeper. One parent will be home, and my husband will generally be working, including working from home some days, so we are looking for someone who is comfortable working alongside us rather than providing completely independent childcare. We would especially value someone who is willing to teach and guide us rather than simply taking over baby care. Our target budget is approximately $30 per hour, although we are open to discussing the rate depending on experience, certifications, schedule, and responsibilities. We are also open to discussing a schedule that gives us the most useful support within our budget, such as several daytime shifts per week or targeted postpartum support during the first few weeks.

Hello, I am currently looking for a doula to support me during my pregnancy, birth and postpartum period, and I would love to learn more about your services and availability. I am French and currently based in Manhattan with my husband. This is our first baby and my due date is November 24, 2026. I am currently about 28 weeks pregnant. I am looking for someone who could accompany me in preparing for a natural birth, particularly as I suffer from vaginismus, and who could help me feel as prepared and confident as possible for the birth. I would be very interested in hearing more about the type of support you offer, your approach, your availability around my due date, and your rates/packages. If you're available, I'd also be happy to schedule a short introductory call to get to know you and discuss my expectations. Thank you very much, and I look forward to hearing from you !

Ideally, we would like help 4–5 nights per week, approximately 10–12 hours per night, for the first 1-2 months after delivery. We are specifically looking for someone with strong newborn experience, preferably someone who has cared for twins overnight independently. Support would include feeding, burping, diaper changes, soothing, bottle washing/preparation, and helping establish a safe sleep routine so that my husband and I can get some rest. Experience with premature or early-term babies would be a plus. CPR certification and references are preferred. We are flexible on the exact schedule and would love to discuss availability, experience with twins, and rates. Japanese-speaking would be a plus, but is not required.
