We had such a wonderful experience with Vennessa during the first month of our daughter’s life. She was incredibly warm, caring, and compassionate, and we immediately felt that our baby was in loving and capable hands. She was attentive to our daughter’s needs and brought a calm, reassuring presence to our home during such an important and sometimes overwhelming time. She was also extremely helpful with breastfeeding and provided thoughtful guidance and support as we navigated those early weeks. She helped us establish a healthy sleep routine that worked well for our family and gave us the confidence to better understand our baby’s cues and needs. We are so grateful for all of her support during those first few weeks. Her experience, kindness, and genuine care made a meaningful difference for our family, and we would highly recommend her to any new parents looking for compassionate and knowledgeable infant care.

Hi, I’m Catherine — a Certified Birth & Postpartum Doula and mom who believes every mother deserves to feel supported, heard, and cared for. My approach is rooted in “mothering the mother,” providing a safe, judgment-free space where families can feel confident and informed throughout their journey. As a birth doula, I support families through unmedicated births, inductions, epidurals, VBACs, and cesarean births. I use comfort measures like movement, positioning, breathing, counter-pressure, massage, and hands-on support while helping families understand their options and advocate for themselves. As a postpartum doula, I focus on caring for the whole family while making sure mom is cared for, too. From newborn care and feeding support to postpartum recovery, nutritious meals, and helping you get the rest you need, my goal is simple: to help you feel supported, confident, and cared for during one of the biggest transitions of your life.

It’s so hard to find someone to trust to help take care of yourself and your family, and Catherine has been such a big help. Her support with my newborn allowed me to rest and recover, focus on physical therapy and bonding, and be a present parent for my growing family. I highly recommend Catherine for Labor and Post-partum support!

Hey, I’m Kaleish, a public health practitioner, doctoral student (in public health) and a certified full-spectrum (birth and postpartum) doula. I currently hold certifications in providing NICU doula support as well as High Risk doula support. I am currently in training to be a certified community lactation educator. Think of me as your perinatal support person. I support women and birthing people of color who are feeling dismissed, unsure, or overwhelmed during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I started this work because I realized how many women of color are navigating pregnancy without the support, guidance, or advocacy they deserve. It deeply concerns me how often Black and Brown women have their concerns dismissed by medical providers—sometimes resulting in traumatic and avoidable birth experiences. ​ Now, I help women and birthing people of color move from feeling unheard and unsure to feeling informed, supported, and empowered to advocate for themselves and their birth preferences. If you’re a woman or birthing person of color feeling dismissed, unsure, or overwhelmed—you’re in the right place. This journey is yours. I’m simply here to hold space, answer your questions, and make sure you feel safe, seen, and supported every step of the way. ​ Random Facts: I've supported births at Katz Women's Hospital at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, Hungtinton Hospital, NewYork-Presbyterian Alexandra Cohen Hospital for Women and Newborns and NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital. I am a lefty/ left handed. I don't have a sense of direction even with a map, however, I will find my way to support you. I was born in the Caribbean and spent most of my childhood and some of my teenage years living there. I love me some 80s and 90s black sitcoms. ​​ Book Your Free Consultation: Book Now via https://calendly.com/kaysgentlehands/30min?back=1&month=2026-07

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Kamelya 4 years ago after our son, Jonah, was born prematurely. As new parents, we thought we were prepared after all the reading and research we had done, but nothing could have truly prepared us for having a premature baby. Having Kamelya with us was a no-brainer. She was recommended to us by a colleague, and she not only took the best care of our son, but also took the time to teach us how to care for him ourselves. She showed us how to feel comfortable and confident holding, feeding, and bathing him all in the comfort of our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver. Kam was so kind, gentle, patient, and might I add funny! She truly became such an important part of our journey as new parents, and we will always be grateful for everything she did for our son. Thank you for everything, Kam! ❤️ Love, Sharon, Doug & Jonah

An absolute lifesaver for my exhausted from being a new parent. She was calm, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable about infant care swaddling, feeding schedules, and soothing techniques all handled with gentle confidence. She was punctual, communicated clearly, and made us feel completely at ease leaving our little one in her care. Highly recommended for anyone needing reliable, experienced help in those early weeks.
