About me

Meet Mary Broene | Postpartum & Infant Care Doula Mary Broene is a certified Postpartum & Infant Care Doula through ProDoula who is passionate about helping families feel supported, confident, and cared for during the transition into life with a newborn. With experience as a Lactation Peer Counselor and a mother of four, Mary brings a unique combination of professional knowledge, hands-on experience, and genuine compassion to every family she serves. Her passion for postpartum care was shaped by her own motherhood journey, including the experience of welcoming a premature baby and navigating time in the NICU. These experiences gave Mary a deep appreciation for the emotional and physical challenges that can accompany the postpartum season and strengthened her desire to provide families with the reassurance and individualized care they deserve. Mary believes postpartum support should extend beyond caring for the baby. Her approach centers on nurturing the entire family by helping parents rest, recover, build confidence, and feel more comfortable in their new roles. From newborn care and feeding guidance to overnight support, she strives to create a peaceful, supportive environment where parents can focus on healing, bonding, and enjoying those precious early moments with their baby. With her background in lactation support, Mary is especially passionate about helping families navigate feeding with confidence and without judgment. She understands that every family and feeding journey is different and takes the time to offer encouragement, education, and support tailored to each family’s needs. Outside of her work as a doula, Mary enjoys life with her husband and four children in Allendale, Michigan. She loves spending summer days by the family pool, making memories at Disney, coaching soccer, and cheering her children on in their activities. Family time is at the heart of who she is, and she brings that same genuine care and dedication to the families she supports. Mary feels honored to walk alongside new parents during such a transformative season of life. Her goal is to help families feel less overwhelmed, more rested, and confident in their ability to care for their newest little one—providing the hands-on assistance, encouragement, and compassionate support they need every step of the way.

Service introduction

As a postpartum doula, I provide compassionate, hands-on support to families as they adjust to life with a newborn. I assist with newborn care, feeding education, soothing techniques, diapering, and establishing routines that work for each family. I also support parents by encouraging rest, promoting postpartum recovery, and helping build confidence in their new roles. Offering overnight care, my goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment where parents feel supported, empowered, and cared for while bonding with their baby.
