With over 8 years of childcare experience, including 3+ years dedicated exclusively to overnight newborn care, I specialize in supporting families through the early stages of parenthood. As a certified Newborn Sleep Specialist and CPR-certified caregiver, I bring both expertise and peace of mind to the families I serve. I focus on helping infants establish healthy sleep foundations from the very beginning, which often reduces or eliminates the need for formal sleep training later on. In addition to overnight care, I also offer sleep consultations, providing families with a personalized plan and practical strategies to help improve their baby's sleep. Families trust me for my professionalism, calm presence, and ability to create a nurturing, structured environment during the most important months of a child's development. My goal is to provide parents with confidence, reassurance, and the rest they deserve while knowing their baby is in experienced and compassionate hands.

My husband and I have three kids. When we decided to look into a night nanny, our kids ranged in ages from 2.5,1.5 and a newborn. At this point in time, we were running on fumes, that is when my husband and I felt it necessary to get help, if we were to function in semi normal capacity during the daytime. Emmy came highly recommend by friends of ours that used her services a couple years prior. Our quality of sleep improved tremendously. Emmy came equipped with a wealth of knowledge and experience, which curbed any reservations we may have had. Emmy is loving, gentle, caring and warm, everything we hoped to find in a Sleep Specialist. Emmy was sure to discuss any ideas she thought would be helpful with our daughter's sleep, before implementing her methods. We were very lucky to have been introduce to, Emmy. I feel safe in saying, that if you do decide to choose her as your Newborn sleep specialist, it is a decision you won't regret.

Greetings, my name is Cathleen. Born and raised in Rockland County NY. My background has mostly been weaved in women's wellness focusing on mind-body-spirit connectedness. My style of work is intuitive & spirit-led fusing evidence based information. I'm a full spectrum birth worker, breech without borders trainee, Postpartum Healing Specialist weaving ancient & indigenous healing modalities. I have a more holistic approach such as breath work, the use of essential oils, physical touch, and change of laboring positions. I assist home births, hospital and certified to assist at The Birthing Center of NJ. I work with you to help you have the empowered birthing experience that you desire and deserve. Although, I didn't listen to the call to this path until 2020 to become certified birth worker, my first birth that I supported and postpartum care was provided in 2006.

Cathleen was an extremely caring doula. I am so grateful for having had her as my doula as she was always caring for me and guiding me to balance my body, mind, and soul while preparing to welcome my child to this world. She incorporated sound body movement with soul care, which I am sure influenced my homebirth experience. My labor lasted 12 hours (start to finish), and she was the only one there at the time of the birth because my baby came so speedily that the rest of the team did not arrive in time. I’m sure my baby chose her to be there because of her grounding presence and her positive vibrations. Will definitely choose her next time, and the next, and the next.

Bringing a baby into your life can be a beautiful yet, overwhelming experience. I've been a doula for 11 years and counting, so I've been doing this long enough to know that every family is different. Because of that, I like to get to know the families I work with so that I can support them in a way that is specific to their individual needs. I do not make the decisions for parents or tell them what to do, I empower them to have the confidence in their own parental decisions with evidenced based information, care and empathy. On top of being a doula, I'm a Childbirth educator, Certified Lactation Counselor, Nutritionist, Holistic Health Coach, Certified Sports Nutrition Coach, and Personal Trainer with specialties in pelvic floor, core health, prenatal and postpartum fitness. I bring all of my skills to families to support them in the way that is specific to their needs.

As a birth doula, postpartum doula, and certified newborn care specialist, I’ve had the privilege of supporting dozens of families from labor and delivery through the fourth trimester. My work blends evidence-based care with compassionate presence—whether that means guiding parents through birth, creating restful overnight support, or helping establish nurturing routines for baby and family. My goal is always the same: to ensure families feel confident, cared for, and never alone in their journey. Outside of work, I live a full life filled with lots of travel with my partner, hiking with my three rescue dogs, Louie, Lily and Winter, spending lots of quality time with my nieces and nephews and friends and family.

I am a certified, insured, CPR & 1st aid certified, seasoned professional doula. I have supported countless families during my career. Many families have used my services for each of their babies and referred me to their family and friends. I believe a doula should offer compassionate flexible support throughout the ever changing needs and phases of care. It brings me joy to be doing what I love and what has come naturally, after raising my 4 children, including singletons and multiples born via normal spontaneous vaginal delivery and a Cesarean section.

Kim spent 3 weeks with our family as a night doula and we could not be more grateful for her. Kim knowledgeable, personable and a joy to have in your home, she took excellent care of our newborn and made the transition in the first postpartum weeks easy for the entire family. I highly recommend Kim for families looking for a postpartum doula!

I am Full Spectrum Doula for three years striving to craft a practice in which I work with women during pregnancy to seek evidence-based information, and to feel capable, confident, and strong as consumers, as birthing women, and as life-givers. Regardless of their birth choices, these prenatal visits, as well as the additional communication during my clients’ pregnancies, have the potential to set women on a path of making their own decisions and trusting themselves throughout pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period .As is so often the case with birth, things may go completely differently than envisioned. But with a strong foundation of trust in themselves, their bodies, and their supporting person going into labor, a doula can help support a woman to have a powerful birthing experience in which she is an active participant and the ultimate decision maker. How I show up for each woman in labor will be different, according to her personality, her needs, her desires, and the rest of her support team

I am beyond thrilled to share my incredible experience with Ms. Riley, my fertility doula. Words cannot fully capture the gratitude I feel for her unwavering support and expertise throughout this deeply personal journey. After years of longing and uncertainty, I am overjoyed to say that I am now with child—a dream come true that I could not have achieved without Ms. Riley by my side. From the very beginning, she brought a sense of calm and confidence to what felt like an overwhelming process. Her knowledge about fertility and holistic care was unparalleled, and she took the time to truly understand my needs, my story, and my vision for this journey. Ms. Riley went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. Whether it was guiding me through lifestyle adjustments, offering emotional encouragement during challenging moments, or providing practical advice that was tailored to my situation, she was a constant source of strength. She had the unique ability to make me feel heard, valued, and empowered at every step.

Hi, I'm Amanda. I'm a DONA International certified postpartum doula, mother of four (including a set of identical twins!), Ina Garten superfan, book lover, and shock-proof confidant. With over a decade of experience supporting families, I'm a trusted expert in newborn care and the postpartum journey. I know firsthand that becoming a mom—whether it’s your first time or your fourth—can feel overwhelming. Between the sleepless nights, conflicting advice from the internet (and well-meaning family), and the physical recovery, it’s easy for moms to feel lost in the chaos. That’s where I come in. I believe every mother deserves judgment-free support—emotional and physical—during a time when all the attention tends to shift to the baby. During my time with you, I listen deeply, tuning into each family’s unique needs during the fourth trimester, to bring calm, clarity, resources, and care when it's needed most. Whether I'm cooking the comfort meal you’ve been craving, caring for your newborn so you can recharge, offering evidence-based feeding guidance, or being a safe space to vent over coffee—I'm in your corner. After a visit, you’ll feel seen, heard, encouraged, rested (and yes, probably be laughing too). No question is off-limits. No topic is “TMI.” I am here for it all and to help you be a mother YOUR way.

Hello, my name is Katia Almada, and I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula dedicated to helping families feel supported, confident, and cared for as they welcome their new baby. Through my practice, Golden Hour Doula, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment where parents can focus on bonding with their baby, recovering peacefully, and feeling empowered in their journey into parenthood.

Recent review

Katia has been my postpartum doula and caregiver for my baby boy since February 2025. She consistently takes initiative in ways that truly lighten my load as a new mom. One moment that stands out was when she noticed I was juggling baby care and chores—without me even asking, she washed the baby's clothes and bedsheets, took out the trash, and even helped cut vegetables for dinner. She always notices what needs to be done and jumps in with such care and thoughtfulness—it’s clear she’s not just doing a job, but genuinely wants to support and nurture. This was my first baby, and I had never used a doula service before, so I was initially skeptical and a bit anxious about having someone new in our home during such a vulnerable and emotional time. But from the very beginning, Katia made me feel at ease. Although she has extensive experience with babies, she remains open and flexible—listening carefully to my needs and respecting our preferences. She remembered all the little things I mentioned and adapted her care accordingly. Even now, with my baby being 8 months old, I still turn to Katia when I need someone trustworthy to watch him for a few hours. That’s how much confidence and comfort she’s brought to our family. Both my husband and I are deeply grateful for her help—having Katia as our doula has been such a positive and reassuring experience. She made a lasting impact on our early journey as parents, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her by their side.
