I’m a holistic-based nanny, doula, and Newborn Care Specialist who believes that children thrive when they feel safe, respected, nurtured, and truly seen. My approach to childcare is gentle, attentive, and child-led, with a strong focus on creating a calm and nurturing environment where children can explore, learn, and develop at their own pace. I value connection over correction and believe everyday moments—whether playtime, mealtime, or settling down for a nap—can be opportunities to build trust, confidence, and emotional security. As a doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I have a special appreciation for the early stages of development and the unique needs of both babies and parents. I’m passionate about supporting families with patience, intuition, and a holistic mindset while honoring each child’s individual personality, rhythms, and developmental needs. Through child-led play, mindful routines, and lots of warmth and encouragement, my goal is to make children feel comfortable being exactly who they are while giving parents peace of mind that their little ones are being cared for with intention and genuine love.

I’m a Registered Nurse, Nurse Practitioner, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with over 12 years of pediatric and lactation experience. My background includes working as a bedside RN in pediatric critical care (PICU & NICU) and as a pediatric nurse practitioner providing 1:1 lactation support in the clinic setting. Supporting breastfeeding families has always been at the heart of my work. As a mom of four—twins first, then two singletons 18 months apart—all born with tongue ties and short NICU stays, I understand firsthand the challenges, learning curves, and triumphs of breastfeeding. My own journey taught me that every feeding experience is unique, and sometimes it’s far from “natural” in the beginning. I believe every feeding journey is unique, and there’s no one “right” way—it’s about finding what works best for you and your baby. I’m here to support, teach, & embrace you in yours and your baby’s breastfeeding journey.

Hi everyone! My name is Grey Graham, and I am a Certified Postpartum and Birth Doula, as well as a Certified Breastfeeding Counselor. Currently, I service South Florida (primarily), but I am open to traveling to North Florida, as well as any neighboring states. In my honest opinion, I think children are a precious gem, they are Gods gift to us here on Earth. They're just so sweet and actually quite fun to be around, I believe that they are the future and we can learn more from them then we think. I also love to see people happy and enjoying the life we've been blessed with. I decided to become a doula become after constantly stumbling across people with fears/ bad stories about giving birth and having children. I saw that people were afraid of having an actual baby, anxious that they'd be abandoned in the delivery room, and nervous about how to take care of them after. I've heard moms break down thinking they're not doing enough and failing their infant. That's where I come in. My ideal practice is to give judgment free help families adapt to bringing their baby home, understand any concerns they have, and hopefully aid them into becoming able to enjoy this milestone of their life.
