As a mom of two young ones, one being autistic, I know the difficulty of being a parent with unique challenges. Each of us have them.

I will certainly love your child as my own, but you need someone looking out for you too. I'll be that gal.

Hello! My name is Sydni and I am DNT certified postpartum doula, DONA trained birth doula and experienced overnight newborn caregiver with 8+ years working with postpartum mothers, and over 11 years working with children of all ages. I was recently accepted to Columbia University and Seattle University to pursue an MSN-DNP in Midwifery. I'm also very passionate about indigenous midwifery and traveling to international communities that blend modern medicine and traditional practices. The invaluable knowledge I've gained abroad directly influences the way I serve local families as a doula. I enjoy adapting to the needs of a variety of families, and learning from the varied experiences and stories that mothers, grandmothers, and caregivers alike have shared throughout my career as a doula. I am located in the Hudson Valley, and spend my free-time hiking in the Catskills and hanging out with my cats.

Hi, I'm Abby! I am a Sleep Doula and provide custom, tailored sleep support and education for little ones 0-5. I prioritize both the development of the child and mental health of the parent and work to create a solution that works for the whole family and support you along the way.

While the world is often described as being made up of hunters and gatherers, I have always been a fire tender. I am awake and alert through the night, tending to the quiet rhythms of sleep and the well-being of those around me. While families rest deeply and safely, I hold the space—watchful, calm, and present—so warmth, comfort, and care are never interrupted. Creating a peaceful nighttime environment where babies feel safe and comforted, and parents are able to rest and feel supported, is deeply fulfilling. Night work is sacred. It’s in these hours that healing happens, bonds are strengthened, and rest becomes truly restorative. As a night nanny, my role is to protect that rest, ensuring babies are soothed, parents can fully let go, and the household remains peaceful until morning. I tend the fire so your family can sleep. I’m often described as soft-spoken, skilled, and a little silly, and I bring warm, attuned, and gentle care into all of my work with children. Being trusted with such a quiet, intimate part of a family’s early journey feels very special, and I approach it with great respect, attentiveness, and care. I’ve worked with families for over 10 years and have an abundance of glowing references available upon request. I value open communication, collaboration, and consent based, gentle caregiving practices, and I prioritize finding a strong mutual fit with the families I support. My expertise is in multiples, trauma, premies, and infant health issues. Rest is waiting. Let me hold the night.
