Jenny Palomo

Hello! My name is Jenny Palomo, and I am a compassionate, dependable, and family-oriented caregiver with several years of experience supporting children and families. As a mother of five children, I bring not only professional caregiving experience but also extensive hands-on personal experience caring for children through every stage of development. My journey as a mother has taught me patience, flexibility, empathy, and the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment where children and families can thrive. I have experience working closely with children of different ages and developmental needs, including children with autism and ADHD. Through my caregiving and professional experiences, I have developed strong communication skills, attention to detail, and a calm, supportive approach to helping families navigate their daily routines and challenges. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, allowing me to effectively communicate with and support a diverse range of families. My philosophy is to meet families where they are, offering compassionate, respectful, and nonjudgmental support. I believe every parent deserves encouragement, understanding, and reliable care during both the joyful and challenging seasons of parenthood. My goal is to help families feel supported, confident, and cared for while providing dependable assistance tailored to their unique needs.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jenny was such a blessing to our family. She helped care for my two youngest children from the time they were newborns and was also involved in caring for my oldest child since the toddler years. Throughout the years, she has always been patient, loving, and dependable. One thing that always stood out was how naturally she taught and guided the children. She took the time to help them learn, encouraged them with kindness, and always remained patient and understanding. My children loved being around her and felt safe and comfortable in her care. She consistently went above and beyond for our family and was always willing to help whenever needed. I would highly recommend Jenny to any family looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, patient, and genuinely caring.

🌟 Hi, I'm Jessica, Your Family Wellness Guide! 🌟 My journey as a family coach is deeply rooted in my own experiences and beliefs. Having faced the devastating impact of suicide, including the loss of my dear friend Viktoria when she was just 13, I understand firsthand the importance of fostering resilience, understanding, and meaningful connections within families. Growing up, I struggled with depression and adversity. These challenges have shaped my perspective and fueled my passion for supporting families in their own journeys. I know from personal experience the critical role that support, empathy, and effective communication play in promoting mental health and well-being within families. My approach as a family coach is guided by empathy and authenticity. I provide a safe and supportive space for families to explore their challenges, celebrate their strengths, and unlock their full potential. I understand that every family is unique, and I take a collaborative and individualized approach to coaching, tailoring my guidance to meet the specific needs and goals of each family. Rather than offering quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions, I empower families with the tools, insights, and strategies they need to cultivate lasting change from within. By fostering self-awareness, resilience, and effective communication skills, I equip families with the resources to navigate challenges with confidence and grace. My ultimate goal as a family coach is to inspire families to embrace their journey with resilience, joy, and a sense of possibility. I believe in the power of transformational growth that extends far beyond our coaching sessions. Ready to embark on a transformative journey towards a happier, healthier family life?

We truly cannot put into words what Rosalie meant to our family during those early newborn weeks. She came into our lives at a time that felt overwhelming, emotional, and exhausting, and somehow brought a sense of calm, confidence, and steadiness that we didn’t know we needed so deeply. From the very beginning, we trusted her completely. The way she cared for our baby was so gentle, intuitive, and full of love, it felt like he was safe with someone who truly saw him. She didn’t just help us get through the nights, she helped us become parents. She guided us through feeding challenges, soothed him through the hardest moments, and taught us how to better understand and care for him. Her presence made everything feel more manageable. We were counting down the minutes until she would come. She was also incredibly intuitive when it came to me. She could sense when I was feeling overwhelmed or unsure and always met me with reassurance and guidance. Whether it was encouraging me to call the pediatrician when something didn’t feel right or simply reminding me to trust myself, she supported me in a way that went far beyond just caring for our baby. Saying goodbye to her was incredibly hard. We genuinely had to brace ourselves for it that entire week. There is something so special, and honestly emotional, about watching someone love and care for your baby the way Rosalie did. It’s not something you forget. We are forever grateful for her. She made one of the most vulnerable seasons of our lives feel supported, safe, and even beautiful in moments. Any family would be beyond lucky to have her, and we will always hold her in such a special place in our hearts.

My journey to becoming a mother was not easy. I had two very different and difficult births that taught me a lot about myself and the challenges of childbirth. My first birth was a long and exhausting labor that ended in an emergency cesarean. I felt scared, helpless, and disappointed that I couldn’t have the natural birth I wanted. My second birth was a planned cesarian, I felt unprepared, anxious, and overwhelmed by the intensity of the experience and felt guilty for not trying to deliver naturally. Both of my births left me feeling traumatized and in need of healing. ​ These experiences made me realize that there is a gap in the traditional healthcare system when it comes to supporting mothers during birth. I felt that I didn’t get enough information, education, or emotional support from my providers, and that I had to advocate for myself and my baby. I decided to become a doula to fill that gap and to help other mothers have a better birth experience. As a doula, I offer personalized and continuous support to mothers before, during, and after birth. I help them prepare for their birth, cope with their pain, communicate with their providers, and celebrate their achievements. I want every mother to feel empowered, respected, and joyful during their birth.

Doula Laci is an amazing doula for all birthing people regardless of birth plan! Many other doulas I’ve met have pushed an exclusively “natural” birth plan but that doesn’t work for all bodies or families. Laci is amazing, understanding of multiple birth experiences and needs, and a deeply empathetic individual. You couldn’t find a better doula for your birth.

Hello! Are you looking for in home Childbirth Education or Postpartum weekend support? Thank you for looking at my profile. I'm excited to learn all about you and how best I can support you! I have worked as a Nanny for 17 years and I'm a mother to 4 of my own who are now adults. I work with a local postpartum doula agency but I am able to take clients that I meet on my own. Like you! I am registered on Trustline with a clean background, and CPR certified. I have completed 2 DONA workshops, Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula, but still working on my certification. I am a certified Childbirth Educator through Cornerstone Doula Training. The services I provide are: *Childbirth Education from a physiological standpoint and evidence based information. *Postpartum Doula support for overnights or daytime schedules. What that includes is a list created with you. Like many of us who have decided to become Doulas, I would like to provide the support and resources that I would have enjoyed. I have vivid postpartum memories of struggling to get through each day while absolutely sleep deprived and so stressed that I'm doing everything wrong. My goal is help you rest, feel nourished, and supported! I know that each parent and family are unique! My goal is to learn from you how can I support you. I'm not going to walk in assuming that I know how you feel or what your needs are. Every person is different! I feel each birthing and postpartum person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. My fees are on the lower end than those you find with Doulas and Childbirth Educators with experience specific to birth work. Thank you for reading! I look forward to working with you.

Hi, I'm Rochelle! ** I am live scan fingerprinted & background checked with clearance as the DOJ Custodian of Records for my job outside of being a birth doula. Those records are available upon request. *** I'm a mom to three amazing kids, ages 20, 13, and 8, which means I'm living in ALL the seasons of motherhood at once! From college to junior high and elementary school, life is full, fun, and always keeping me on my toes. My love for birth started when I was just 12 years old and witnessed my first baby being born. That experience stayed with me and sparked a passion I've carried ever since. After years of supporting women through birth, I became a trained birth doula three years ago, and I'm now working toward becoming a childbirth educator and lactation consultant. My doula style is laid-back, encouraging, and rooted in education, open communication, and a little humor! I've supported all types of births, and one thing I believe strongly is that your birth isn't about me, my preferences, or my convictions. It's about YOU. I'm 100% committed to respecting your values, choices, and wishes, whatever those look like. My role is to help you feel informed, prepared, and confident while creating the safe, compassionate, and supportive birth environment you envision.

My husband and I have nothing but incredible things to say about Rochelle with Crowning Achievement! Having her as our doula meant we were educated on all things birth throughout pregnancy, she'd be with us to support our "birth plan," and she'd be equipped to help guide us through any unforeseen changes throughout labor & delivery. With our dream unmedicated birth now behind us, her knowledge and experience really is priceless and I can't imagine ever going through labor and delivery again without her! She supported me physically through various coping methods, mentally/emotionally by being a strong and safe figure, and she even helped guide my husband who received a lot of coaching for how to support me best. My husband says it wouldn't have been the same experience and we wouldn't have been able to go unmedicated like we did without her - I second that! She spent so much time learning about me and my preferences to know exactly what I needed in the moment and did the best job at keeping communication open throughout labor. She was also the best bridge between us and the hospital staff and they also raved about her which was really awesome to hear! If you're wanting to learn more about doula support during birth, do not hesitate to reach out to Rochelle for even just an introductory call! She's truly the WHOLE package and we get to look back on how empowered, calm, and dare I even say "light-hearted" our birth was largely because of Rochelle. Like I said, nothing but incredible things to say. 10/10!!

Words cannot not express how thankful I am for Mrs Nicole's help after I had my son! She came to my house 4 times weekly and covered the night shift for me and my husband up until our son was 15 months old. the relief we had with knowing that our first child was being cared for AND we got to get rest to go to work and take care of our son during the day was and is truly priceless! Mrs Nicole helped with diaper changes, feedings and even ran a few loads of the babies clothes while we were sleeping. When our son turned 14 months, he was sleeping through the night so no longer needed her but truly are still grateful we reached out and got the help we needed and wanted. She was open to what we wanted as parents and even offered suggestions that helped us transition into a new world of parenthood. Thank you Mrs Nicole!

Nicole was the greatest support! I connected with her last minute and only met her twice before my birth but she made me feel so comfortable and helped get me to labor down. She’s very hands on and I will definitely reach out for the rest of my births😊

— Stephanie A., review of Nicole Jones

October 2026

Nicole was such a wonderful help during the night feedings and with light kitchen and laundry tasks. Her support allowed me to get the rest I needed, which made such a difference. She was kind, caring, and reassuring, and she made me feel truly supported during a time when I needed it most. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend Nicole to any mom looking for dependable, compassionate support.
