As a first-time mother in a new country, I was looking for a doula who could guide me through the birth process with understanding and care. Sitra provided just that. From our initial meetings, she made sure I felt comfortable and informed about my options, and during labor, her calm and professional presence was exactly what I needed. She was attentive to my needs, advocating for me and ensuring that I felt safe at every step. After the birth, Sitra also offered helpful support with breastfeeding, giving me the confidence I needed as I adjusted to life with my newborn. I’m very grateful for her guidance and would recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, skilled doula.

My name is Suzi, and I specialize in working with children ages newborn through 4 years old. I'm a certified potty training expert 💩, certified newborn care specialist 👶 new parent coach ❤️, pediatric sleep consultant 😴 certified poustpartum doula and former career nanny. I'v been working with children and assisting parents for 30 years. My expertise is largely gained through decades of hands on experience, along with ongoing education and up to date training. POTTY TRAINING ~ 💩 Whether you're unsure how to begin, you've run into roadblocks, frustrated or simply nervous about potty training, I'm here to support you and your child through this major milestone development of them achieving autonomy. CERTIFIED NEWBORN CARE SPECIALIST ~ 👶 I'd love to support you! I provide overnight newborn care support so you can rest. Bringing home a baby can be amazing, but also exhausting. Sleep deprivation is real and lack of sleep can lead to postpartum depression. Typical duration of support: 4 to 5 nights a week, 10/12 hours a night, for 12-16 weeks. By the end of my stay, you can expect to have your baby sleeping through the night and on a predictable daily schedule. NEW PARENT COACH~ ❤️ I wish I knew then what I know now! I'm a seasoned mom of two grown boys and have gained a wealth of knowledge both personally and professional through hands-on experience, and ongoing education. Parenting isn't a cake walk! It's hard work and exhausting, mixed with amazement and exhilaration of love and joy like you've never experienced before. SLEEP TRAINING~ 😴 Sleep is essential to every family’s well being. Without adequate sleep, children cannot function at their best, nor can the parents. Every child’s sleep needs can differ. What works for one child and their family might not work for another, which is why my sleep training approach is catered to your family's goals and curated to your child's specific needs and abilities. Allow me an opportunity to end sleep deprivation for your family! Certified Postpartum Doula ~👣 Providence an all inclusion and comprehensive overnight overview care. My overnight Doula service are best for families looking for support 2 to 6 weeks, 10 hours per night.

I love writing reviews, but only for people who truly deserve it — and Suzi Schwartz absolutely does! We hired Suzi to help with potty training our daughter, and I honestly cannot thank her enough. Suzi is incredibly knowledgeable, with years of experience, and the moment she explained what was going on and shared her tips, everything finally made sense. I had tried potty training twice on my own before and felt like I failed each time. The third time, I wanted to make sure I didn’t fail again — so I hired Suzi, and it was the best decision. After just one month, my daughter was fully potty trained. She started at 2 years 3 months old and was completely trained by 2 years 4 months. Suzi made the whole process smooth, supported us the entire time, and truly set us up for success. Thank you so much, Suzi. It was wonderful working with you, and I’m so grateful for the amazing outcome!

We were incredibly fortunate to have Niomi care for our two children from ages 5-2 Her patience seemed endless, and she always treated our kids with such love and genuine care. It was clear she wasn't just watching them, but truly invested in their well-being and happiness. Beyond the basics, Niomi always went the extra mile. She planned engaging activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor games, that kept our children entertained and helped them learn. Meal times were always healthy and fun, and she was great at handling the usual kid-related messes and tantrums with grace and humor. Knowing our kids were in such capable and loving hands gave us immense peace of mind. Niomi is more than just a nanny; she became a part of our family, and we highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional childcare.

Hello! My name is Diane Lim and I am a postpartum doula. I have two children of my own - two beautiful baby boys. I became interested in postpartum doula care when I was going through the postpartum season with my firstborn. I just thought to myself how there isn't enough support for women who are going through the biggest transition of their lives! I want moms of all life stages to feel supported and cared for.

Recent review

I received postpartum care from Diane with my firstborn and I'm so thankful I did! She was at my home 4 nights a week to take care of my newborn overnight while my husband and I got some much needed sleep. I only woke up to feed the baby as I was breastfeeding and Diane would burp, diaper, and put him back to sleep. I'm so glad I decided to take care of myself during this huge life changing transition.

Diane was my doula with my first baby and she was amazing. She took care of the baby so I could get some extra sleep at night and she also took care of me, whether it was helping me with pumping or swaddling. I feel like she gave me the tools to take care of my newborn and to be okay once she left. I can’t recommend her enough.
