About me

Hi, I’m Melissa, I’m a certified postpartum doula through ProDoula with over 5 years of experience caring for newborns and 2 years dedicated to overnight support. I’m passionate about helping families feel confident, rested, and cared for during those first tender weeks at home. I’ve worked with singletons, twins, and preemies. I absolutely love supporting all things newborn, breastfeeding, and postpartum recovery. My goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment so you can rest, heal, and enjoy bonding with your baby. Every family’s journey is unique, and I’m here to make yours a little smoother and a lot more supported. 💛

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!
