About me

Hello and welcome! My name is Mandy and I am a certified Postpartum Doula dedicated to helping families find their footing during life with a newborn. My path to this work wasn’t just professional—it was personal. As a mother of four and a wife, I’ve walked the postpartum journey multiple times myself. I know exactly how beautiful, exhausting, and overwhelming those first few weeks can be. My own experiences taught me that families don’t just need advice; they need rest, nourishment, and a calm, non-judgmental presence to lean on. That is exactly what I strive to provide. Having lived in Germany and coming from a multicultural background, I bring an open heart and deep respect for different traditions and parenting styles. I understand that there is no "one right way" to parent—only the way that works best for your family. Whether you need support with newborn care, help getting a few hours of sleep, or just an extra set of hands to keep the household running, I’m here to make your transition smoother. I want you to feel cared for so you can focus on bonding with your baby. Let’s make your postpartum experience a time of healing and connection. I would be honored to support you.

My goal is to nurture the whole family so you can focus on bonding and recovery. Newborn Care: Assistance with feeding (breast/bottle), diapering, bathing, and soothing techniques. Mother’s Recovery: Physical and emotional support to help you heal and rest after birth. Overnight Support: Caring for your baby through the night so you can get the sleep you need. Household Help: Light housekeeping, meal preparation, and sibling support to keep your home running smoothly.

Every family is different, and I am here to provide the non-judgmental, hands-on help that fits your life.
