About me

I’m a Full Spectrum Doula, newborn care specialist, and boy mom. My infant care journey, trainings, and previous role as a nanny has allowed me to gain a plethora of knowledge about caring for both mothers and their newborns. It has also given me the privilege of supporting moms through the sleepless but undoubtedly euphoric times of the postpartum and newborn stages. I accomplish this by educating and encouraging my families while also providing evidence based care and comfort to their newborn. I know this is an immensely delicate time for every family but its my delight to help transition from womb to room.

Jnai is absolutely wonderful! She did overnights with my baby a few nights per week from the time my baby was 10 days old, and I am so thankful for her. She is a baby whisperer and could calm and soothe my newborn with ease every evening. I knew my baby was in good hands with Jnai. I wish I knew Jnai when I had my first baby!

l We were incredibly lucky to have J’Nai care for our son during his first four months. After a couple of disappointing experiences with previous night nurses, we were understandably nervous about trusting someone new—but J’Nai quickly put us at ease. She was warm, gentle, and so soothing with our son, who was struggling with reflux and needed extra care and patience. She clearly has a special touch with babies and was also a huge support to us as first-time parents. She answered our questions, helped us build our confidence, and gave us practical guidance along the way. J’Nai also helped with bottle washing and nightly routines, which made a big difference during those exhausting early months.

We had a wonderful experience working with J'Nai as our postpartum doula. She jumped in immediately just a few days after my son was born until he was six weeks old. It was important to me that whoever we worked with felt like a part of our family and never made my husband or I feel uncomfortable. From the beginning, we felt at ease around J'Nai. She has an incredibly calming presence and took such good care of our son. She helped us with little things too - teaching us how to put diapers on properly to prevent leaks, creating a bedtime routine, and sharing words of wisdom that kept us sane during the newborn stage. I am grateful to have worked with J'Nai.
