Naomi Larbi

I am a Certified Postpartum Doula and Infant Care Specialist with extensive experience in infant care. My journey began in childcare as a Certified Teacher, and I have cared for up to eight babies at a time daily for over four years. I have worked with multiples, including twins and triplets, and have experience as a home care Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), supporting preemie infants and NICU graduates who needed extra at-home care. In addition, I have worked as a private nanny, providing personalized care to families. Coming from a large family, I have been caring for babies for as long as I can remember, which naturally led me to the world of infant care. I am passionate about my work as a doula, knowing that doulas make a real difference in the community. I truly enjoy supporting families and ensuring they receive the care they deserve. I would be honored to help support your family during your postpartum period!

We hired Naomi as i postpartum doula in January throughout the 12 weeks, Naomi consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of the needs of both the newborn and the new parents. Her ability to create a calm and comforting environment during the nighttime hours allowed my partner and I to get the essential rest we needed to navigate the challenges of early parenthood. Naomi's knowledge of postpartum recovery, breastfeeding support, and soothing techniques for infants was very useful to us. Naomi's professionalism, punctuality, and reliability was evident throughout the entire duration of her service. She communicated effectively, ensuring that we were always on the same page regarding our daughter's care and any specific concerns or preferences we had. In summary, I cannot speak highly enough of Naomi and her outstanding skills as a postpartum doula. We’d be happy to recommend Naomi to anyone in need of support during there postpartum journey!

Hello everyone, my name is Casey Carroll.. I am a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula located in Smyrna, DE and the founder of Nurturing Waves Doula Services! I absolutely love supporting births, it’s truly a passion I’ve had my whole life! I am always educating myself as much as I can to have the best and most up to date evidence based knowledge there is. I believe birth can be calm and peaceful if we set the right atmosphere. Knowledge is power and so is having great support! I am a judgment-free zone for all parents seeking informational, emotional, and physical support. In my free time, I love being outdoors (especially hiking), spending time with all four of my children, and working on projects with my husband. I can not wait to support, empower, and celebrate with you 🩵

I had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with Casey during a recent birth, and I was absolutely blown away by her compassion, intuition, and expertise. She knew exactly what her client needed in each moment, offering unwavering support, reassurance, and care. As a prenatal chiropractor, I was honored to assist alongside her, and it was amazing to see how seamlessly she guided the birthing process. Her ability to create a calm, empowering space for her client was truly inspiring, and I can’t wait to work together on more births in the future! If you’re looking for a doula who is deeply in tune with her clients and provides exceptional support, I highly recommend hiring Casey! She is truly a gift to the birthing community. 💕

My name is Aonya’. I am a Licensed Practical Nurse and CPR Certified aspiring to become a doula. Right now I am on my journey as a postpartum nurse looking to help new mothers. I am offering a free service right now to all new mothers who could use extra support. Please check out my website just to get to know a little more about myself. Anyone interested can contact me. From a young age, I have always had a deep love for babies. I spent my childhood caring for my doll babies, feeding, changing, and nurturing them. At just four years old, I eagerly rushed home from school to catch episodes of "A Baby Story," captivated by the journey of new parenthood. My passion for maternal care led me to begin volunteering at Saint Francis Hospital in Wilmington, Delaware, at the age of 14, where I worked in the postpartum unit, stocked supplies, and had the joy of seeing newborns in the nursery. I knew early on that I wanted to become a nurse. I began my healthcare journey as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), providing compassionate care to seniors in nursing homes and assisted living facilities for over 12 years. After getting married and becoming a mother of two, I experienced firsthand the challenges of postpartum life. I can remember shortly after giving birth not having that huge support system around. I often found myself in need of support and guidance and had I known about this care earlier on it would of relieved me of so many challenges I faced. Once my children were old enough for daycare, I decided to pursue my LPN license, graduating during the challenging times of COVID-19. I began working in home healthcare, focusing on pediatrics, and had the privilege of caring for several newborns as a nurse.Throughout my journey, I’ve supported many families, especially single mothers, and have heard countless stories that have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges they face. In 2025, I took my skills to the next level by becoming a postpartum concierge nurse. With over 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry, I am dedicated to providing personalized postpartum services to mothers. I understand that the transition to motherhood can be overwhelming, filled with a whirlwind of emotions and uncertainties. That’s why I am here—to offer not only my clinical expertise but also the support and reassurance you need during this precious time. My goal is to help you feel safe and secure as you navigate this new chapter of your life. I am committed to alleviating your concerns and providing the extra help you deserve, allowing you to focus on bonding with your baby. You deserve to be pampered and supported, and I will be with you every step of the way, ensuring you receive the compassionate care you need. Sincerely, Aonya’ Porter LPN

I'm a lactation consultant located in Wilmington, Delaware and a single mother to two sons. Yes, I nursed them both. (Yes, for years.) I’m passionate about many things, one of the primary being mothers and people who birth babies. Helping them discover how amazing their bodies are through breastfeeding is deeply fulfilling, as is accompanying couples as they learn to parent together, growing closer and becoming stronger. While you are with me, you will experience total attention from a kind and non-judgmental listener. My goal is to help you feel confident in the choices you are making, whatever they are. We will find a way to keep you and your baby safe, happy, and healthy, however that looks for you. At The Golden Hour, you belong.

Rachel is an AMAZING provider. A wealth of knowledge coupled with the bedside manner of a saint. I recommend her 1000% to help meet you where you are and walk you through whatever challenge you approach her office with. She is also surrounded by an amazing circle of referral partners so if your particular situation also requires the care of other providers, she is able to point you to the best ones. I particularly remember when I was pregnant with my 2nd baby who's now 1.5y old and Rachel spent over an hour simply asking me questions about me, my own well being and mental health as well as diseccting through my first breastfeeding journey which sadly did not go well and how that had affected me emotionally. Regardless of how my 2nd journey would have unfolded at the time, the fact that she even took the time to ask about the first journey was HUGE. RUNNNN to Rachel's office.

Hi, I’m Monica! I’m a certified postpartum doula through Cornerstone Doula and Birthwork Trainings and the heart behind The Sacred Season Doula. I believe every postpartum journey deserves tenderness, flexibility and genuine care. As a mom of four, I understand how each experience can feel completely different. Some moments are joyful, some feel overwhelming, and often it is a mix of both. My intention is to meet you exactly where you are and offer support that feels calming, respectful and deeply human. I specialize in overnight postpartum support, creating a peaceful and steady presence while you rest and recover. Whether it is newborn care, feeding support, emotional grounding, or simply giving you the gift of uninterrupted sleep, my goal is to make your nights softer and your days lighter. The postpartum period is a sacred season and no one is meant to move through it alone. I am here to help you feel held, supported and cared for as you settle into life with your baby. I serve families across these South Jersey counties: Gloucester, Camden, Cumberland, Salem, and parts of Burlington and Atlantic counties.

We had the pleasure of having Monica as our postpartum doula after the birth of our second baby. Monica is sweet, caring, and hard working. She supported my feeding goals, whether I wanted her to bring me baby to breastfeed or wanted her to offer baby a bottle so I could get some extra sleep. In addition to helping to care for our newborn, she was a tremendous help with cleaning bottles and pump parts and folding laundry - all the tasks that helped us focus on baby and get some extra sleep. Monica was a big help to us during the postpartum period and we gladly recommend her!
