Melissa has been so great to work with and has helped me in my breastfeeding journey from the beginning. From getting started and helping me setup my pump to mastitis help to checking in when something feels off. She’s also up for stopping by for a last-minute appointment whenever I need something. She truly cares about your breastfeeding journey and making you feel at ease. I highly recommend Melissa if you’re planning on breastfeeding. She’s a great resource! Thank you for all your help Melissa!!

HI! I'm Jasmin, a certified postpartum doula and lactation educator with 12 years of experience supporting families and babies.

I specialize in gentle overnight support, giving new parents the chance to rest, recover, and bond with their little one in a calm and nurturing space. It's an honor to help serve and support families in this transformative period, and I'd be so grateful to support you too. Looking forward to connecting with you!

As a Newborn Care Specialist and PostPartum Doula , I provide invaluable support to new parents in the comfort of their own homes. My role is to educate and empower them to understand the unique needs of their precious baby. Whether it's scheduling, feeding, sleep, or addressing common newborn challenges like reflux or colic, I am there to guide them every step of the way. With my expertise, I ensure that parents are equipped to meet all their baby's needs. Day or night, around the clock, I am dedicated to making the transition into parenthood as smooth and joyful as possible.

Recent review

We had such a wonderful experience working with Betzy as our newborn care specialist! She helped us transition our 3-month-old reflux baby into her own room, sleeping safely on her back in her mini crib with just one to two wake-ups a night—something we weren’t sure was even possible! Betzy was incredibly reliable and brought such a calm, reassuring presence into our home. She was so sweet and gentle with our daughter, and her tips for bath time and tummy time made those routines smoother and more enjoyable for all of us. We’re so grateful for her support and highly recommend her to any new parents looking for expert, compassionate care.

I cannot speak highly enough of Eldrid's invaluable support during my postpartum recovery. After my C-section, she became an indispensable part of our household, seamlessly managing tasks that allowed me to focus on healing and bonding with my newborn. Eldrid not only cooked delicious and nutritious meals that nourished our family (by the way, she makes the BEST lactation chocolate chip cookies and tapioca pudding), but she also ensured our home was consistently tidy and organized. Her attention to detail in laundry and housekeeping meant I could rest without worry. The soothing massages she provided for my feet, shoulders, neck, and hands were incredibly therapeutic and helped relieve the tension that comes with new motherhood. Beyond the physical care, Eldrid went above and beyond by taking expert care of our baby, allowing me precious moments to nap, shower, or simply take a solo walk for much-needed self-care. Eldrid's understanding and compassionate demeanor made me feel supported and understood during those overwhelming first weeks as a new mom. I remember when I had my first experience with breast engorgement. I was terrified and texted Eldrid, and she immediately knew the fix and brought over some cabbage leaves to help manage the pain. Eldrid's dedication to both my baby's well-being and my own was evident in every interaction. She listened attentively to my concerns and offered invaluable guidance and reassurance. Her nurturing presence not only eased the transition into motherhood but also fostered a sense of confidence and empowerment in my new role. I am profoundly grateful to Eldrid for her unwavering support and expertise during a pivotal time in our lives. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine care have left an indelible mark on our family's journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Eldrid to any parent seeking compassionate and knowledgeable postpartum care. My family misses her greatly!

Throughout my career as an artist, private childcare provider, and non- profit leader, my focus has always been to serve others in their life transitions. I believe that with big change, comes big magic: the precious & challenging gift of introspection and connection. My greatest inspiration comes from the ebbs and flows of the female reproductive cycle - a constant reminder that everything changes.

Recent review

Judith was the night nurse for our twins from 0-3 months, and from the day we came home from the hospital she taught us not only how to get the twins to sleep at night (and not wake up), but also how to care for them during the day. She set us up with eating and sleeping schedules that would best benefit their nighttime sleep patterns, and advised us on which swaddles, white noise machines, formulas, and bottles to buy. Her expertise helped us in so many ways. She was quick to notice a couple of dietary issues the twins had, which saved us days if not weeks of nonstop crying babies. She was calm and confident and professional, and by the end of her 12-week period with us the twins were regularly sleeping through the night. Judith made the first weeks of our twins’ lives exponentially more manageable and we highly recommend her.

Dear Prospective Parents, I would like to first offer my congratulations to you on the birth of your new child. As a mother of 4 myself I know first hand all of the emotions that you are feeling right now. I vividly remember the sweet baby breath and the soft sounds they make as they fall asleep. I remember the pride you are feeling as you are looking down at something that was created out of the love you and your partner share. I also remember how daunting a newborn can be. I remember that all of the books, classes and advice in the world can’t accurately prepare you for the real life thing. I remember the good emotions, the bad ones, the sad ones. I remember the sleepless nights and the confusion over deciphering whether or not that is a cry for hunger or gas. My job as a night nanny practically speaking is to offer you a peaceful night's rest. But I am also here to be your advocate, support person, cheerleader, coach and anything else that will make your experience as new parents a great one. Having the support of a newborn care specialist and postpartum support care means having someone there for you that will believe in you, even when you are not sure if you believe in yourself. My goal is to empower you as the new parents.

I had the best experience with Hadley as my doula. Being a first time mom and not knowing anything about the process, Hadley helped me every step of the way prenatally to my birth in the hospital. She is so patient, loving, and always made me so comfortable. During the process she answered any questions I had during pregnancy, labor, and birth. I would not want anyone else as my doula and I highly recommend her!

Recent review

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Tiffany for postpartum doula support, and we truly couldn’t be more grateful for her care and expertise. As first-time parents, we were navigating unfamiliar territory and looking for someone who could guide us through the early days with our newborn son. Tiffany exceeded every expectation. She supported us in so many important ways—from troubleshooting feeding and gas issues to helping establish healthy sleep habits (as much as possible with a newborn!). Her guidance gave us the confidence we needed as new parents, and her calm, reassuring presence was invaluable. Tiffany cared for our son twice a week for several hours at a time, giving both mom and dad a chance to rest and recharge. Beyond caring for our baby, she was also a tremendous support to me as a first-time mom. Her thoughtful check-ins before and after the birth made me feel genuinely cared for, and she consistently encouraged me to prioritize rest and recovery during those crucial early weeks. Tiffany is both professional and deeply compassionate. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for postpartum support—you’ll be in the best hands.
