My aim is to earn the trust of my clients to guide them through their perinatal experiences and choices, but more impactfully to connect them with their own intrinsic wisdom and intuition.

As someone with a history of ED and body dysmorphia I have a passion for supporting people who have had or do have similar struggles. I am relatedly an active advocate against medical fatphobia and the associated myriad of non-evidence based biases against fat pregnant folks.

In my free time I like to dismantle systems of white supremacy and patriarchy, tend to my indoor jungle, and build marble mazes with my kiddo.

Namaste! I’m Tory Whitney; birth and postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, sleep consultant, mindfulness and Hypno Babies, educator, intuitive guide, and author of Sacred Sleep on Amazon. I am the founder of Whispering Lullabies, bringing 7 years of perinatal experience and over 30 years of hands-on childcare experience into the families I serve. I support parents through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and infant sleep with a calm, regulation-first, whole-family approach that honors both science and intuition.

I blend evidence-based physiology, nervous-system education, mindfulness, and intuitive attunement to help babies and parents settle into sustainable sleep rhythms—without rigid or one-size-fits-all methods. My birth and postpartum services mirror this belief. I believe parenthood is more than a transition—it is a sacred awakening. My mission is to help families feel seen, supported, and deeply aligned with their instincts as they move through birth, bonding, and beyond. Through in-home and virtual care, I hold space for families to soften, settle, and trust themselves—one breath, one night, one season at a time.
