Find a Doula Near Me in New Jersey

Hi, I’m Bri ! I am a DONA-certified doula who specializes in what happens after the baby arrives. Because let’s be honest, postpartum is hard, and you shouldn’t have to figure it out alone. I’m here for the sleepless nights, the emotional waves, the questions you’re afraid to ask, and everything in between. I also support families in building birth plans they actually feel confident about including C-section preparation, so nothing catches you off guard. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, judgment-free, and genuinely in your corner. When you work with me, you feel it. I became a doula because I know what it feels like to need support and not have it. That experience drives everything I do. When you work with me, you can expect real, hands-on care such as help with newborn feeding, recovery support, emotional check-ins, and someone who actually listens. No scripts, no rushing you along. And if you’re sitting there feeling scared or overwhelmed; that’s exactly who I’m here for.

Being a doula isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I come to this work with both heart and hands: deeply compassionate and clinically trained. I believe birth and family-building in all its forms deserve steady, knowledgeable, and nonjudgmental support. Whether I’m offering comfort measures in active labor, explaining medical options in a hospital room, or simply sitting quietly and holding space, my goal is always the same — to help families feel safe, informed, and truly cared for. I trust the wisdom of the body, but I also respect the realities of modern medicine, and I bridge those two worlds with calm confidence. I proudly support all types of families and all paths to parenthood — traditional birth, cesarean birth, adoption, surrogacy, and even palliative and end-of-life journeys surrounding pregnancy and infants. I understand that not every story unfolds the way we hope, and I believe every story still deserves tenderness, dignity, and unwavering advocacy. My philosophy is rooted in inclusivity, respect, and meeting families exactly where they are. Whether welcoming new life or navigating complex emotions, I show up fully — with warmth, clinical understanding, and a deep belief that no one should walk these moments alone

Hello! My name is Olivia, and I am an experienced childcare professional with over five years of caregiving experience for children of all ages, including more than three years working professionally as a nanny in NYC/NJ. My recent work has focused primarily on infants, supporting families through feeding, sleep challenges, developmental milestones, and the day to day transitions that come with a growing baby. I am currently completing my training as a Newborn Care Specialist (NCS) and Postpartum Doula (PPD), and I am passionate about supporting families during the early weeks and months of parenthood. I believe every family deserves compassionate, reliable support during this significant life transition. Welcoming a new baby can be joyful, exciting, overwhelming, and exhausting all at once, and my goal is to help parents feel informed, confident, and cared for as they navigate this new chapter. My caregiving philosophy is heavily rooted in kindness, respect, and collaboration. I strive to meet families where they are, support their individual parenting goals, and create a calm, nurturing environment where both parents and babies can thrive. In addition to my nanny experience, I have worked as an assistant teacher in a Level 3 ASD elementary SpEd classroom, and am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and First Aid. I look forward to supporting families with warmth, professionalism, and evidence-based care during some of life’s most precious moments. I am happy to provide references of former families with infants I have worked with.

Hi, I’m Angela — a mother, grandmother, and postpartum doula based in New Jersey, proudly serving families throughout the NJ/NY/CT tristate area. I am deeply passionate about supporting families during the tender and transformative postpartum period, offering calm, compassionate care when it’s needed most. I have supported over 40 families and their newborns through overnight postpartum care and newborn support, helping parents rest, recover, and confidently adjust to their new reality. While I also provide daytime care, my primary focus is overnight support for families who need specialized, hands-on assistance during the early weeks after birth. My passion for postpartum care grew from my own journey into motherhood, when I realized how essential it is for birthing parents to feel nurtured, supported, and truly seen after birth. What began as caring for family and friends naturally evolved into my calling as a postpartum doula. In addition to my doula work, I bring over 15 years of experience caring for children and teenagers, along with nearly two decades of volunteer service supporting parents, children, and teens in my community. I approach every family with warmth, respect, and a wholehearted commitment to helping you feel confident, supported, and cared for during this beautiful new chapter.

Becoming a mother transformed the way I see birth, postpartum, and the importance of compassionate support. My own journey inspired me to become a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, and today I feel honored to guide families through one of the most meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe every family deserves evidence-based information, emotional support, and practical help so they can feel confident, respected, and empowered in their own choices. I provide calm, nonjudgmental care tailored to each family's unique needs. Whether supporting you during labor, helping you recover after birth, assisting with newborn care, feeding, soothing techniques, or simply offering reassurance during those first weeks, my goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and never alone. It is a privilege to walk alongside families as they welcome their babies with confidence and peace.

Hi there, Friend! I became a doula, because I realized my passion for prenatal care, birth, and postpartum support was not departing after my own experiences. My goal is to be able to help and support other women in my community. I desire to have them experience excitement and confidence in themselves that I hope leaves them encouraged. I have been through three pregnancies myself and have walked alongside many friends and family members journeys. I live in the tranquil countryside of Northern NJ, about 5 minutes away from the borders of Upstate NY and PA and only 90 minutes away from NYC! My husband of 10 years and myself were born and raised in Sussex County. We love where we live as it is quiet, beautiful, and allows us to continue our dreams of one day having our own homestead. We look forward to raising our three beautiful children here as well. As a collegiate business major and previous elementary/middle school educator, communication, organization, learning, and teaching are very important to me. Volunteering my time frequently allows my empathetic attributes to selflessly serve others and walk alongside my neighbors, peers, friends, and family. In my free time, I love being outside and active with people near and dear to me. I love to garden, take care of our chickens, cook, bake sour-dough, play board games, take hikes, and watch the occasional football game! When it is just my husband and I, you would find us reading or enjoying a nice conversation by the fire or outside in nature on the deck! I cannot wait to connect with you and hear about your journey into motherhood! Through communication, support, and love I am confident and hopeful to be able to come alongside you so you can experience strength, dignity, and laughter in all your maternal moments! XOXO
