Hello, dear mama, My name is Vita Baranauskas, and I am a wife, mother to two, and grandma to two. With over twenty years in the medical field, I have always been drawn to caring for others, but becoming a doula was my true calling. Why do I do this? It is my belief that every mother should have someone by her side. My only goal is for you to experience your ideal birth, whatever that looks like for you. I learn to remain calm and adapt to life's movements through my happy place, the ocean, while my lush garden reminds me to nurture with love and patience. Care, intuition, and confidence are what I bring to you. I'm here to support you, provide compassionate, judgement-free care, and help you make the choices that feel right for you.

Vita was a warm, consistent support through out the end of my pregnancy and through my labor. She provided videos, visuals, reading materials, and demonstrations for a variety of techniques to prep for birth. She worked with me and my partner so we felt prepared for a VBAC. She answered my middle of the night texts to determine when to move to the hospital. She consistently provided cues for movement and breath to support pain management and the successful movement of my baby through the labor process. She also helped me focus on hydration and keeping my energy up. Vita provided cues for my husband to support me as well. I went from my first birth being an induction ending in an unplanned c section to a completely natural birth with the help of Vita! It was exactly what we wanted and Vita helped us feel confident advocating in the hospital. I cannot thank Vita enough for all of her support.

Throughout the 26-year journey of raising my sons, and being a nanny and caregiver, I have gained knowledge, skill and wisdom. I desire to teach, help and support new moms as they “find their inner mama”. I am there to teach new parents how to care for, soothe, breastfeed, read “cues” and feel confident and comfortable in the care of their babies. As a postpartum doula, my desire is for families to ease into the huge life change of adding a newborn as smoothly as possible, whether it’s their first baby or their fifth, since each child holds it own challenge, and the needs of families ebb and flow with a new child. My heart is to support families in a non-judgmental way in all their needs, whether it’s sleep, advice, holding the baby, helping the baby sleep, preparing a nourishing soup, folding laundry, helping you find resources in your local community, or just being a veteran mom who will listen as you process all the emotions of your transition into motherhood.

I don't know where our family would be without Rebekah's postpartum support! On a typical day, Rebekah will watch the baby while I get a good nap. She'll often cook a healthy snack or make dinner for us to reheat later. She is also a baby & breastfeeding expert and has so much knowledge to share. She has so many good tips about everything from nursing positions to diaper changes to managing sleep. Getting through this tough newborn phase has been so much easier with her guidance!

I am writing to highly recommend Luciana Gerrish as a Newborn Care Specialist. Luciana began working with our family when our son was 1 week old in the Summer of 2023. My husband and I were overwhelmed with caring for our new baby in addition to our 4 year old daughter, and Luciana stepped in and put us at ease immediately. We “clicked” right away, as Luciana was warm and confident. I could tell immediately by the way she picked our son up and spoke to him that she loved her job, which made it easier to go to sleep while she was looking after him. Luciana always arrived each night a few minutes before her shift started at 9 pm, so that we could fill her in on our day and she could answer any questions we had. We settled in to sleep knowing our son was in excellent hands. We trusted her fully and were able to sleep well because of this. In the morning, Luciana would either have the baby asleep for us when we woke up, or, if he was awake, she would be playing with him sweetly. Bottles were sanitized and ready for the day, and she shared a detailed recap of the prior night. Our 4 year old daughter loved seeing Luciana in the morning, and was jealous Luciana was only there for the baby because she was so kind to her! Having Luciana work with your family is like having a personal baby expert available to you, who can help you maximize sleep and feeding routines in a loving way. Getting sleep after a busy day with two kids was a gift, and she made it easy! She was with us for four months, and then our son was sleeping from 6:30 pm-6:00 am (we credit her with this great sleep), so we no longer needed her help. It was bittersweet to no longer see her each night, but we are so grateful for her loving care of our son. While Luciana’s impact on our family can’t possibly be summarized on paper, I hope you will infer how wonderful she is from this letter. Hiring Luciana was the best decision!

I was extremely anxious during my second pregnancy after having a miscarriage during my first. I didn’t know what to do and had many questions with just about everything. Cheyenne was very patient, friendly, and professional. She answered about every question I had and provided me with great support. I was about to relax a little bit with her around. I will definitely work with her again the next time around.

Pregnancy, childbirth and new babies have been my passion since I first found out I was pregnant over 16 years ago. My birth and postpartum experiences - both wonderful and challenging - fed my spirit and inspired me to give back to other new parents.

I have both LIVED and LEARNED experience with pregnancy, birth, postpartum, newborns and new parenthood. I am excited to help you and your family along your journey of parenthood in an open, non-judgmental manner. From pregnancy through birth and beyond, my support, knowledge, and experience can help you become the parents you know you can be. I would love to help ease the many transitions that a new baby can bring, help you build confidence in your abilities, and provide support for all your new family needs. I look forward to supporting you along this joyful, exciting, and amazing adventure! I am here to help YOU, expecting and new parents, to feel sure of yourselves in your roles by shining light on your own innate intelligence and that of your new baby. I am excited to teach you the basics, the truths, and the skills to confidently prepare for, enter, and beautifully navigate postpartum and new parenthood.

We hired Hilary as our Postpartum Doula and she provided us critical support, care, and counsel from day one of leaving the hospital with our newborn son. I don't know how we could have gotten through this phase without her regular day and night time visits. The breaks she provided us a few times a week were invaluable: leaving our son with someone we fully trusted to catch up on sleep or even run errands. She was also a constant ear for us with all of our new-parent questions: from our baby's health, to breastfeeding, to products. If she doesn't know the right answer, she will get you in touch with someone who does. She is fully dedicated to making sure you have the support you need and are on a good path as a new family. Hilary has a great approach to coming into your home and making everything feel smooth and easy. We are going to miss working with her, and can't recommend her business enough to other families whether it's your first kid or your fourth.
