Baby Sleep Consultants & Coaches Near Me in Mechanicsville, VA

My name is Ashley Gopaul. I am a state certified full spectrum Doula & Certified Lactation Consultant. I started my journey as a doula in 2021 while finishing my last semester at VCU with my Bachelors in Health Sciences. I started with Birth In Color RVA as an intern finishing my requirements for graduation and left my internship ….as a doula ! Working as a doula is truly such a rewarding field as I am allowed the opportunity to create a safe space for my clients to be vulnerable, empowered, deconstruct stigmas, and really get into their lives to optimize a safe birth as well as set them up for a successful start to parenthood. With the help of my mentor and experience, I then opened “Lily’s Birth Boutique,” to further expand support to my community. Whether I am helping a first time or a fifth time parent, every experience is so unique and is truly a learning experience even for myself. On a personal note, my side interests and hobbies include playing with interior design, spending time with family, and dance !

My name is Sasha, and I am a mom of two with a passion for birth education and support.

I believe birth is a sacred experience, and you deserve a doula that honors and facilitates that!

At Baby Sleep Goals we strive to provide parents with the education, tools and support they need to get their children sleeping better for years to come!

Hello/Shalom!♥️ Im Judith☺️ Mom of 8 beautiful children, Birth/Postpartum Doula, Herbalist, and Childbirth educator. I like to take the more Holistic route with birth with as less interventions as possible as I do believe the woman’s body simply just knows what to do, BUT I’m completely open to all angles of birth (homebirth, birth center, Hospital) as I’m here to serve and protect 🥰.

I’m a postpartum doula and placenta encapsulation specialist serving in Richmond and Henrico, VA.

I am a postpartum doula certified through DONA International, a lactation consultant trained through The Healthy Children Project, and a Ayurvedic masseur certified through The California College or Ayurveda. I’m a personal chef that specializes in postpartum nutrition and have a catalogue of frozen stews, broths and soups to choose from if you need inspiration for your meal planning. I meet prenatally to help organize the home, nursery and any other members of the support team. (Outlining responsibilities and expectations is work that is best done in advance.) I provide a newborn care class and a lactation class as well as meal prep for soups, stews and broths to be frozen. I always encourage my clients to try to book me for a visit right after the birth while in the hospital for lactation support and a modified version of my Ayurvedic massage. Once the family is home I cook nourishing foods rich in iron, protein, collagen, micro and macro nutrients to aid in recovery from depletion and help speed healing. (I also have a Postpartum Soup Bundle that can be purchased ahead of time.) I do dishes, laundry and of course provide even more lactation support. I can also simply care for the newborn while parents sleep. After the first few weeks the focus tends to shift into finding a daily rhythm, newborn care techniques and education on developmentally appropriate sleep habits for the baby. I also help parents with planning childcare help. I can be a sleep consultant one day and provide a massage the next. Maybe I play with the older children while mama naps with the newborn. Sometimes the work is just to sit and talk about all the things that the parents are struggling with. My job and my life’s joy is to simply be an extra set of hands or a sympathetic ear to new parents.
