Hello potential families! I’m a Highly skilled, attentive and effective private childcare nanny and house manager with etiquette and discretion necessary to successfully care for children of busy professionals. Handles entirety of children's needs at home and on vacations, including scheduling, meals, and housekeeping. Devoted to helping children develop and reach full potential with nurturing and focused care.

I’m Larissa (she/ela/ella), a birth and postpartum doula based in Philadelphia, PA. My practice is rooted in the beliefs that birth is a sacred act of transformation, that birthing people hold innate wisdom in their bodies, and that we all deserve safe, affirming, size-inclusive reproductive healthcare. As a birthworker, I offer a compassionate and comforting presence, intuitive and evidence-based information, physical support, fierce advocacy, and space for birthing people of all identities to move through pregnancy and labor peacefully and confidently. I myself identify as queer and Latina. Eu falo português e adoraria trabalhar com famílias brasileiras. 🇧🇷 In my free time, I love to cook, read, journal, play volleyball, practice Pilates, and make pottery, and I’m passionate about weaving mindfulness, movement, and nourishment into birthwork in ways that uplift radiant, full-body joy. I’m lucky to live with my wife and our Siberian husky, Olaf, in Germantown, Philadelphia.

I’m a mama of two beautiful boys, a Registered Nurse since 2006 with a Masters Degree, and a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant through The Family Sleep Institute. Most importantly, I’m a lifeline and resource for all you mamas and papas that feel like you’re beyond exhausted and overwhelmed with your child’s sleep issues. I know when people hear ‘sleep training’ a number of different things can come to mind. To me, sleep training is a fluid process and you and I are a team working together to get your kiddo sleeping well (so that you can start sleeping well too!). My methods are evidence-based, scientifically backed, and fully researched. There is no one-size-fits-all plan or method. The method is actually the smallest piece of the puzzle. There are a number of important components of healthy sleep that I will help you establish right from the start. I want to get to know you, your child, your parenting style, and then see how sleep training can work for you, in a way that makes sense for your family. My sleep plans are family-focused, flexible, respectful, and mindfully created. I know what it’s like to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and frustrated with a baby that won’t sleep and I am here to support you to your sleep goals.

My practice is based on the science of sleep. Knowing how and why we sleep is key to being able to come up with solutions for those who are not sleeping. This foundational knowledge allows me to create unique and customizable sleep plans for children. Working collaboratively with parents allows me to effectively support them in their quest to being a well-rested family. Sleep is not a one stop shop and sleep methods will vary from child to child. My knowledge of numerous methods allows me to work with all types of families.

I’m Natalie, founder of Loops & Kisses Doula Services. I provide intentional, holistic, and culturally attuned support for families who want to feel safe, seen, and in control of their birth and postpartum journey. My approach blends evidence-based information, intuitive care, and hands-on support so you’re not just surviving these transitions, you’re moving through them with confidence and clarity. Whether it’s building a birth plan that reflects your vision, creating space for rest and healing in postpartum, or helping you navigate conversations with your care team, I’m here to protect your autonomy, center your voice, and hold space for your lived experiences.

I am a certified doula with ten years of experience in supporting and empowering families through their journeys. My passion for this work began with babysitting in my community, which then led to my role as an infant daycare teacher and eventually to becoming an overnight caregiver for new families. It has been an honor and privilege to be trusted by families during such a pivotal time in their lives. Creating lasting memories, empowering women, and providing comprehensive support are central to my approach. I am deeply committed to making a positive impact with the families I support, offering them care, guidance, and a safe space for communication. I look forward to supporting you!

My name is G, and I’m the heart behind Little Brown Doula—a Philadelphia-based, full spectrum doula service rooted in love, lived experience, and radical care.

As a full spectrum doula, I provide compassionate, culturally grounded support through fertility, pregnancy, birth, loss, and postpartum transitions. I believe every birthing person deserves to feel seen, safe, and sovereign in their choices. My work is deeply personal—because I’ve been there. I honor the power of the body, the sacredness of birth, and the stories of Black motherhood.

Hi everyone I’m Ari! (she/they) I'm a Trained Full Spectrum Doula located in Philadelphia, PA. I’m dedicated to providing trauma-informed, client-centered, and affirming care for all. My background in art and passion for research motivate me to offer imaginative, evidence-based birth education and holistic support. To read testimonials from parents who have trusted me to be a part of their experience, follow this link: https://doulamatch.net/profile/34407/ari-eisen. As a birth doula, my focus is on prenatal education that centers physical, emotional, social, and spiritual factors impacting your pregnancy and parenthood journey. I'm here to support your unique vision for your birth experience and serve as your advocate in times of need. I understand that the bodymind is vulnerable and reactive to regimes of oppression. My goal is to uplift the innate beauty and strength of all bodies, with a focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC parents in navigating barriers to just medical care (though I work with parents of all identities). I am sensitive to the institutions and practices that contribute to poor maternal and birth outcomes and I maintain that anti-racism is essential to holistic carework. For years, I've engaged in embodiment practices such as yoga, meditation, and acupuncture to deepen my connection with bodymind intelligence and navigate my own chronic pain journey gracefully. Throughout my various doula trainings, I've upheld my values, which I'm eager to share with you. It would be an honor to be your guide and provide you with compassionate, radically inclusive support.

Hello! My name is Miriam Samassa, and I’m a licensed nurse with 2 years of experience in Emergency Room nursing. I’m now transitioning into in-home infant care and nanny work, where I can continue supporting families with the calm, attentive care I provided in the hospital setting. While this is my first formal role as a night nanny, I bring a strong foundation in newborn and pediatric care, including feeding support, safe sleep practices, and recognizing signs of distress or illness. In the ER, I often worked with infants and young children—developing not only clinical skills but also the empathy, communication, and attentiveness essential to caring for little ones and their parents. I am CPR and First Aid certified, familiar with infant cues and developmental stages, and deeply committed to providing a safe, restful environment for families adjusting to life with a new baby. I’m especially passionate about helping parents feel supported during those challenging overnight hours. I’m currently seeking overnight or part-time positions in Philadelphia and surrounding areas, and I would be honored to bring my medical experience and nurturing approach into your home. Thank you for considering me — I look forward to connecting!
