7 years of experience

Throughout the 26-year journey of raising my sons, and being a nanny and caregiver, I have gained knowledge, skill and wisdom. I desire to teach, help and support new moms as they “find their inner mama”. I am there to teach new parents how to care for, soothe, breastfeed, read “cues” and feel confident and comfortable in the care of their babies. As a postpartum doula, my desire is for families to ease into the huge life change of adding a newborn as smoothly as possible, whether it’s their first baby or their fifth, since each child holds it own challenge, and the needs of families ebb and flow with a new child. My heart is to support families in a non-judgmental way in all their needs, whether it’s sleep, advice, holding the baby, helping the baby sleep, preparing a nourishing soup, folding laundry, helping you find resources in your local community, or just being a veteran mom who will listen as you process all the emotions of your transition into motherhood.

I don't know where our family would be without Rebekah's postpartum support! On a typical day, Rebekah will watch the baby while I get a good nap. She'll often cook a healthy snack or make dinner for us to reheat later. She is also a baby & breastfeeding expert and has so much knowledge to share. She has so many good tips about everything from nursing positions to diaper changes to managing sleep. Getting through this tough newborn phase has been so much easier with her guidance!

Luicana has been the best help and support we got during our postpartum journey as a family.. she was always on time, very professional, good at communicating, very caring and careful with our son, on top of his care and schedule/feeding... our son fed very well with her. She also provided a lot of tips on how to organize his sleep schedule/feeding depending on his age, she printed out a pamphlet with all the information needed to train the baby and organize his naps/sleep which was very helpful. She's very kind and has a calm energy that I really needed, trustworthy, and caring. Definitely we recommend her to our friends and would bring her back again!

Hi! I’m Ashley. I’m a DONA Certified Birth Doula & Advanced VBAC Doula, Certified Lactation Counselor, owner of Saltwater Doula, and an educator and agency coordinator at the Relief Doula Agency based out of Relief Parenting Respite and Resource Center in Hampton, NH. I am also the lucky mom of two sweet and salty girls! I offer prenatal, birth, postpartum, and lactation services to families in Portsmouth, Dover, Exeter, Manchester and other areas throughout the seacoast and southern New Hampshire. I provide support for clients of all kinds. This includes clients who wish to go unmedicated or are planning on an epidural, those with scheduled c-sections or who are preparing for a VBAC. I am there for you whether you are planning to birth at a hospital, at home, or at a local birth center. As your birth doula, my goal is to support you (without bias or judgement) in any way you may need throughout your pregnancy, labor, and the delicate days of the 4th trimester. I’m so glad you’ve made your way here and are in search of doula support!

There was no way to know ahead of time how medically complex my birth would end up being, and having Ashley on our team was a huge part of what made such a wild, chaotic, adventurous birth still somehow a wonderful one. It's hard to adequately express how much her support, grounding, kindness, humor, steadfastness, confidence, and care meant to our entire family. I earnestly would not want to experience birth without her. If you're expecting and thinking about getting a doula - DO IT!!! And if you're a NH local and you're looking for the best one around, your search is over because Ashley's it!

I support families in the weeks and months after baby arrives. In person, virtually, all across Hampton and the surrounding NH towns, southern Maine, and the North Shore of MA. Most nights I'm in your home while you sleep. I handle the feeds, the diaper changes, the 3am stuff, so you can actually rest instead of running on empty. Daytime shifts look different depending on what you need that day. Some families want a hand with the baby. Some want help around the house. Some just want someone there who knows what they're doing. I used to get tangled up in the idea that paid support wasn't as real as a village showing up for free, but I don't anymore. When I was in it myself, some of the people who showed up were paid and some weren't. In the moment, I didn't care which was which. I was just glad someone was there. What matters is whether the person in your house is actually present with you, not just going through the motions. That's what I try to be.

Kourtney is gift to the postpartum world. We will forever be grateful for her help in our first nights as new parents and her continued support to this day. Her calm demeanor immediately put us at ease and we felt so comfortable knowing that our baby was under her care during her overnight stays. She is incredibly organized and knowledgeable. We loved that she created a live notes doc to update us on our son and also provided us links and information on questions we had asked. Kourtney wants the best for families and we truly felt this support. Even just recently she met with me to go over a carseat concern I had and was able to fix the problem in minutes. We love Kourtney and could not recommend working with her more!

Hi, I’m Shannon! I have over 15 years of childcare experience, including the past 5 years specializing as a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula. Supporting families during the newborn stage is truly my passion, and I feel honored to help parents navigate one of the biggest transitions of their lives. I believe every family is unique, so I take the time to understand your parenting style, goals, and routines in order to provide personalized, evidence-based support. Whether it’s establishing healthy sleep foundations, supporting feeding, or simply giving parents the confidence to enjoy their new baby, my goal is to make the newborn transition as smooth and stress-free as possible. Families describe me as calm, patient, dependable, and proactive. I strive to create a peaceful environment where parents feel supported and babies feel safe, loved, and understood. I look forward to becoming a trusted member of your family’s support team and helping you navigate this exciting new chapter with confidence.

Shannon was an incredible newborn care specialist for our family. From the beginning, she was caring, reliable, and thoughtful in the way she cared for our newborn. She gave us tremendous peace of mind during those exhausting early months. One of the things we appreciated most was her balanced approach to helping our baby develop healthy sleep habits. Shannon was gentle and nurturing, never relying on a “cry it out” approach, but she also helped our baby learn to settle without creating habits that would be difficult to unwind later. She struck exactly the right balance between comfort, consistency, and structure. Shannon handled all of the late-night changes, soothed our baby with care, and woke us when needed for feeds. She saved us countless hours of lost sleep, stress, and second-guessing. Thanks in large part to her help, our baby was sleeping through the night by around three months. We are so grateful for Shannon and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a kind, dependable, and experienced newborn care specialist

It's said that breastfeeding a baby is the most natural thing in the world, but it doesn't always come naturally. Like many new parents, I experienced a few challenges while breastfeeding my own children. I want to help others avoid or overcome similar difficulties, if possible. The nursing dyad is such a special relationship and I want as many people as possible to get a chance to experience it. Here in America, lactation consultants are often the only health professional visiting a new family in their home, and sometimes we are the only health care worker seeing a new mom in the first six weeks postpartum. I feel really lucky to be one of the first people to meet the new baby! An IBCLC is a unique professional for your family's unique needs. We are small parts sister, friend, nurse, doula, nutritionist, therapist, parenting coach, biology teacher, and detective! We are an important part of your postpartum support system!

Don’t look elsewhere, hire Sharla! Working with Sharla was truly one of the best decisions I made after having my baby. Breastfeeding can be an overwhelming, confusing, and sometimes difficult journey, and Sharla made it so much easier for me. She is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, responsive, and she made me feel confident in what I was doing. When we ran into challenges, including my son’s tongue-tie and my experience with mastitis, Sharla quickly helped identify what was going on and gave me solutions that made a huge difference. Whenever I had a question or wasn’t sure what to do next, I could turn to Sharla, who gave me thoughtful and practical guidance. I only wish I had found Sharla with my first healthy child! Having her support this time around made a massive positive difference in my postpartum experience. If you’re considering working with a lactation consultant, I cannot recommend Sharla enough. She is absolutely worth it!

Hi, we are Anna and Ashley, Registered Nurses specializing in High Risk Obstetrics and founders Of Birth Savvy LLC. Meet Ashley RN, BSN My career began in pediatric primary care and community health, but my true passion led me to Labor & Delivery in 2015. For several years, I worked at one of Boston’s top institutions, caring for high-risk and critically ill birthing patients. I was driven to expand my expertise beyond the delivery room—supporting families holistically throughout their entire pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience. In 2021, I transitioned into Maternal Fetal Medicine, deepening my knowledge of complex pregnancies and high-risk care. My mission is to provide a culturally competent, integrated approach that nurtures both physical and emotional well-being. Beyond my professional experience, I’ve personally navigated a high-risk pregnancy and birth—a journey that sparked my Aha! moment: knowledge, paired with unwavering support, is the true key to empowerment in the perinatal and postpartum experience. That realization led me to create Birth Savvy, because every birthing person deserves high-quality education, autonomy, and confidence. I mix humor, encouragement, and real talk to help parents connect mind and body, fuel inner strength, and embrace birth without fear. I’m a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner, Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC), CPR/AED/First Aid Instructor, and trained in perinatal mental health. When I’m not empowering families, you’ll find me traveling, watching action movies, enjoying great food, listening to music, and, of course, being a mom! Meet Anna RN, MSN I’m Anna, a dedicated OB nurse with over 13 years of experience in labor and delivery, postpartum, antepartum, abortion care, and Maternal Fetal Medicine. My passion for childbirth started early, inspired by my grandmother’s stories shared around the dinner table. From the moment I stepped into nursing, I knew supporting families through pregnancy and birth was my calling. Beyond hospital-based care, I earned a Master’s in Public Health and worked in community health, providing vital reproductive care and family planning services. As a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC), Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner, and Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) specialist, I bring a holistic and evidence-based approach to every birth experience. My goal is to help families feel calm, confident, and in control, no matter their journey. I founded Birth Savvy because the greatest joy in my career has been guiding parents toward empowered, informed choices—no matter how complex their situation may be. When I’m not working, you’ll find me cooking, traveling, re-learning piano, or tackling endless home improvement projects!

Recent newborn care specialist reviews near North Andover

Natasha Barros is more than a doula. She has become a true family friend. This was my first pregnancy, and as a women over 35 I had many questions, concerns, and uncertainties along the way. Natasha was with me every step of the way. She provided exactly the support I needed throughout my pregnancy and was an incredible source of knowledge and guidance.   She accompanied me to my appointments and asked important questions that I would not have known to ask myself. Her expertise helped me feel informed, confident, and empowered when making decisions about my care. She always made sure everything was in order and helped ensure that no unnecessary tests or procedures were being done. Beyond her knowledge Natasha is kind, gentle, funny, caring, and has a wonderful personality. I did not have much support other than my spouse who had to work, so having Natasha by my side meant everything to me. Always there when I needed her, whether it was helping with household tasks, checking in on my wellbeing or simply having a conversation and offering encouragement. I am truly grateful to have such an amazing doula. Her support extends far beyond doctors visits. She genuinely cares about her clients and their families. And she goes above and beyond to make sure they feel supported. I honestly do not know what I would do without Natasha. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who is pregnant or looking for compassion., knowledgeable support during their pregnancy journey. Ms. Barros is simply the best. If I decide to have another baby, I would absolutely choose her again to guide and support me. Thank you Natasha for everything. Your An angel!!

— Alicia martin, review of Natasha Barros September 2026

Ollie is the best! She meets you wherever you’re at mentally, emotionally, physically throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I had a rough 30 hour labor that ended in a c-section and she stuck with me the entire time! She translated the doctor talk and helped me weigh pros and cons of each step in my birth plan, when every step changed. Having her calm and fun presence to help me through the most challenging event I’ve ever faced was invaluable. She is a rockstar and you’d be silly not to work with her.

— Autumn B., review of Ollie Strong August 2026

Danielle is amazing. So kind, caring, and really anticipates your needs. My kids both immediately loved her, which isn't often the case and I always felt like I could trust her. She is amazing, you won't regret hiring her
