Hello! I’m excited to connect with families here and offer my doula services to those who may need extra support during the beautiful (and sometimes overwhelming) postpartum period. I’ve had the pleasure of working with many wonderful families, and they often share how much more confident, relaxed, and cared-for they felt with me by their side. I am a doula that offer care, gentle baby massage, and soothing oil massages for moms to help with recovery and self-care after birth. I also offer meal prep for the first week to lighten the load and give you more time to rest and bond with your baby. My goal is to bring calm, comfort, and practical help to your home, making those early days as smooth and nurturing as possible. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to support you and your growing family!

Hey there! I'm Jay, a passionate postpartum doula specializing in all things foodie goodness, self-care, and tackling the maternal health crisis head-on. With 8 years of invaluable newborn experience under my belt, I transitioned into becoming a dedicated postpartum doula 4 years ago. My mission? To ensure that all the mamas and families I support know they are my #1 priority, and that I've always got their back. Beyond doula care, I love whipping up delicious meals, crafting nourishing face masks, offering soothing yoni steams to my clients, and so many more self care hacks to keep a piece of you during this transition. Let's navigate this transformative journey together!

Jala did an exceptional job at emotionally supporting me as a first time mom. She did an amazing job at caring for my newborn while I got rest. She was great when it came to helping me prepare before, during and after labor. She is such a kind soul and so gentle. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else helping me in my journey. My house was always so clean when Jala was helping out too! I loved it. She also always light a nice candle or burned sage (which was one of my requests) in the house. She is definitely apart of the family!

Having Katherine’s support during the first six weeks with my premature baby was truly invaluable. My little one struggled with reflux, and Katherine’s patience and expertise made a huge difference. She took great care in holding my baby upright for 30 minutes after each feeding, which helped tremendously. Her knowledge, gentle approach, and reliability provided a great sense of reassurance. I’m incredibly grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any family in need of newborn care.

Melissa was absolutely wonderful with my newborn! She’s gentle, patient, and clearly very experienced with infants. I felt completely comfortable leaving my baby in her care, she followed all my instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout the time she was watching him. It’s clear she truly loves what she does and cares about the babies she looks after. I would highly recommend Melissa to any parent looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter for their little one!

Nara Lima was my postpartum doula from the very first night I came home from the hospital through my baby’s first three months, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She took exceptional care of both me as a new mom and my baby, always anticipating our needs with warmth, knowledge, and calm confidence. Her support made the postpartum period feel manageable, supported, and deeply cared for. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Nara by their side during such a tender time.

Nancy was an incredible support person during my labor and postpartum. She was warm, caring and most of all gave me all the information I needed to make choices that worked for me. She was nonjudgmental and I felt seen by her every step of the way.

My journey in birth work started at age 12, when I had the unique experience of catching my little sister. At age 22, I started my work as a volunteer doula in Vermont, serving members in the community who lacked support. My early volunteer work gave me a deep understanding of how hospitals function, and how to work with medical staff towards the best possible outcomes for parent and child. In 2023, I was trained and certified through DONA, with mentorship by Penny Bussell Stansfield and Dr. Teri Nava-Anderson. Having been through two training programs has given me a diverse range of strategies to draw upon in our prenatal planning sessions and during your labor and birth! I have been honored to participate in many birth stories, each with unique circumstances and goals. I have experience supporting medicated and unmedicated vaginal births, scheduled and emergent Cesarean births with first, second, and fourth-time parents, queer parents, low-income parents, autistic parents, non-native English-speaking parents, sexual assault survivors, people with depression, and parents of color. I am a member of the queer community and this has strengthened my belief that all bodies deserve respectful, compassionate, and culturally humble care.

My journey as a doula began after years working as a nurse and witnessing how powerful support can be during birth. Becoming a doula allowed me to bring my passion for nursing back to life here in the U.S., after years of working as a nanny, and to continue caring for families in such a meaningful way.

I used to be a nurse in Brazil for 16 years. I would like to proceed in this area because I have always enjoyed working with prenatal and natal stages, including babies aged 0-6 months in the hospital. I decided to concentrate more on being a doula since it encompasses more of what I love to do. I have worked as a combination of an at-home nurse and post-birth baby care for mothers fresh out of the hospital. But since moving here instead of being a nurse again, I have decided to be a certified doula.
