The cost of a night nanny in Dover, DE can be influenced by several factors:

    Hiring through an agency often includes placement fees or additional charges for their services, adding to the overall cost.

Hi I'm Chris! I'm super passionate about all things birth. I'm a birth and postpartum doula and a lactation councelor. I have 4 grown children, I was a sign language interpreter many years ago, and worked in a local church for 20 years. I was incredibly nieve and uninformed when I had my children and it is my hearts desire to support moms through pregnancy and birth as well as those first few months after baby is born. I have no preconcieved notions as to how your birth should or should not go. I believe in supporting you in the way that fits you the best while informing you of all your options. I am excited to be following my passion and I look forward to sharing it with you.

Chris was my birth doula, and let me say I would not have had the confidence to do an unmedicated birth as a first time mom without her support, knowledge, and guidance. Chris is EXTREMELY passionate about what she does and it is evident upon any interaction with her. She provided me with many tools to use not only while in labor, but also for pregnancy, breastfeeding, and postpartum. She made herself available to answer any questions I had, even post birth. She is tremendously supportive to any and all decisions you as a mom-to-be. She will not try to persuade you into something else. She makes it very clear it is YOUR birth and she is there to fully support you! If you are considering using Chris as a doula…please don’t think twice!! She is an incredible person..the sweetest woman you will ever meet and extremely knowledgeable! Thank you Chris!!!!

Hi, I’m Kellie, a birth doula, pediatric nurse, women’s health herbalist, and the heart behind The Nourished Mother. I bring over a decade of nursing experience into the birth space, along with a deep reverence for the physiology of a woman’s body. My approach blends evidence-based care with herbal wisdom, breathwork, and somatic practices that help women soften, trust, and embody their power during pregnancy and birth. I believe birth preparation is not just about learning positions or writing a birth plan. It is about reconnecting to your body. It is about learning how your breath can soften your pelvic floor. It is about helping your partner feel confident holding you through intensity. It is about cultivating safety in your nervous system so your body can open. During our time together, we will prepare not only for labor, but for postpartum. We will discuss hormonal shifts, recovery, nourishment, support systems, and the emotional transformation into motherhood. I often incorporate herbal teas, grounding rituals, breathwork, and practical postpartum planning into our prenatal sessions. As both a nurse and a doula, I am comfortable navigating conversations with medical providers while also protecting the sacredness of your experience. I am a calm, steady presence who listens deeply and advocates clearly. My hope is that you feel informed, supported, and deeply connected to your body as you step into birth and motherhood. You deserve to feel nourished in every phase ❤️

"Working with Kellie has been life-changing. She holds space with such warmth, wisdom, and care. I felt deeply seen and supported as I learned how to reconnect with myself in ways I never imagined. Her ability to guide with both deep knowledge and gentle presence is something truly special. With the tools she gently gave me, I feel confident in taking this next step on my journey ."

Hi, I’m Tina, a full-spectrum state certified doula based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I have three years of experience supporting families and have had the honor of attending over 20 births. With a background in healthcare, I bring both experience and a deeply compassionate, nurturing approach to the families I serve. I’m a proud mother of five, grandmother of five, and the founder of a nonprofit dedicated to supporting and empowering families in my community. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that birth is a sacred and deeply personal experience. Every person deserves to feel safe, heard, respected, and supported as they navigate pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the many transitions that come with growing a family. I believe in informed consent, body autonomy, advocacy, and honoring each person’s unique choices without judgment.

I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about my doula, Tina Alisha. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, supported, safe, and cared for. Her presence throughout my journey was truly a blessing, and I’m so grateful that I had her by my side. Tina went above and beyond to make sure I felt confident, informed, and prepared. She listened to my concerns without judgment, encouraged me when I needed it most, and reminded me of my strength when I needed that extra reassurance. Her compassion, patience, knowledge, and genuine love for what she does truly shine through. What stood out to me the most was how Tina made me feel like more than just a client. She genuinely cared about me, my experience, and my baby. She created a sense of comfort and peace during moments that could have easily felt overwhelming. Having Tina as my doula made such a beautiful difference in my experience. I will forever be grateful for the encouragement, support, kindness, and memories she gave me during such an important chapter of my life. She was my voice when I was medically out of it and my babies protector. Solar & I will forever be grateful We Love You Nature Momz 💗❤️

Robin was such a wonderful addition to our home the first few weeks after welcoming #2. She is so loving and from the moment she stepped in and held our little one, I felt at ease. She cared for the baby, made sure I was physically and emotionally well, and when morning came things were set for our day to start easier. My husband was on the fence about overnight help and as with many families, it ended up being such a good fit for us that we extended the weeks she was with us. Happy to give one on one reference information if needed!
