About me

Hello! I’m Ciara, a newborn care specialist and postpartum doula offering attuned support during the early weeks and months with your new baby. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Development and bring over 12 years of experience supporting infants, young children, and families. My approach blends evidence-based knowledge with a calm, intuitive presence. I specialize in newborn cues, development, supporting regulation, and helping families find a sense of rhythm and ease during the fourth trimester. My work is rooted in a holistic, whole-child philosophy that honors each baby as an individual and each family’s unique values and goals. I believe babies thrive when their physical, emotional, and developmental needs are supported alongside the well-being of the entire family. I focus on responsive care, co-regulation, and helping you build confidence in understanding and meeting your baby’s needs with greater ease. My background includes six years with the University of Michigan’s Towsley Children’s House and Michigan Medicine’s C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital, where I cared for both typically developing and medically complex infants. I am adult and pediatric BLS certified. Whether you need support with newborn care, feeding, sleep, soothing, or simply space to rest and recover, I provide gentle guidance, thoughtful education, and practical support so you can settle into this new season with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. Kindly, Ciara
