Recent review

Elena was our night nurse starting at the end of December last year, and she worked with our family for two months. Simply put—she was the best help I could have ever asked for during that time. As a first-time mom navigating those exhausting newborn nights, having he support made all the difference. She brought a calming presence, a wealth of knowledge, and so much genuine care for our son. From creating a gentle routine to helping us understand his cues, Elena guided us every step of the way and gave us the confidence (and rest!) we truly needed. We felt completely at ease with her, and our baby loved her.

We cannot say enough good things about Zala! She is absolutely amazing and hiring her was the best decision we've made for our little girl. Zala is a wealth of knowledge and incredibly professional. She put our minds at ease from night one, and helped create a schedule for our daughter and got her sleep trained within just a few short months. This is our first child, so naturally we weren't sure what to expect, but having Zala was like having a personal, dedicated, expert caregiver that truly cared about her wellbeing and was open to discussing and working with us as we navigated the first few months of her life. We would give her 10 stars, if we could. She is worth every penny and is an amazing person and will undoubtedly make a lasting impression on anyone she works with.

Hi 👋🏼 I am a postpartum doula, meeting families where they are at. I assist with preparing meals, light housework, baby care, lactation support, bottle feeding support, and providing resources. I am a mother of two myself and love empowering parents in such a special time. I work day shifts, late nights and overnights.

Barbara was an amazing support for my family in the first weeks of our daughters arrival. She came over the evening we got home from the hospital and because of her I was not anxious to bring my baby home and not know what to do. I had her to ask questions, give support and be an extra set of hands. In the few weeks Barbara was in our home, she made sure my main focus was being with my baby and healing my body. She aided in nourishing my body with healthy snacks, drinks and meals as well as taught me the reasons behind the healing properties certain ingredients had. There were countless times I didn’t need to ask for help on things around the house, Barbara would be one step ahead of me already doing it. This created a great flow between the two of us. The advice and knowledge that Barbara gave my family eased our mind many times. My husband was able to return to work knowing that baby and I were well taken care of and supported. Her support exceeded my expectations of what a postpartum doula brings to your family. Thank you Barbara for the wonderful experience. You helped our family in the best way possible.

Recent review

We were so grateful to have Terese's advice, guidance, and support for the first six weeks of our son's life. As new parents, we were very nervous about bringing a newborn home and Terese put us at such ease with her knowledge and experience. She showed us how to use all the baby gadgets (swaddles, breast pump, sterilizer, baby carrier etc) and made helpful suggestions about sleep, nursing, bottles, tummy time and more. She helped us with household tasks so that I could get some much needed rest. She was so great to work with and we plan to stay in touch. We highly recommend her services.

I look forward to being a part of your journey and supporting you during one of the most special times of your life!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the amazing Mariah ! She provided a type of care I truly wasn’t prepared to receive for my entry into motherhood. Not even thinking a doula would be a necessary as a new mom I’m so glad I decided to give it a shot. As our postpartum doula, she was simply incredible offering both overnight and daytime support with a level of care, compassion, and professionalism that far exceeded mine and my husband’s expectations. Mariah was attentive to every need, making sure I felt supported not just physically, but emotionally throughout the months I was lucky to have her support. She created such a peaceful environment for both me and my baby, and I always felt at ease knowing she was there. Literally after the first time of overnight I gave her my baby and didn’t have any hesitation which as a mom is not something I have experienced for anyone other than my husband and mom. What truly sets Mariah apart is how consistently she went above and beyond to make sure I knew every detail when she had my baby. No matter how last-minute a request was, she found a way to help without hesitation. Her flexibility, kindness, and genuine dedication made such a difference for our family, and we are forever grateful for her. I would highly recommend Mariah to anyone looking for a postpartum doula who truly cares and brings heart, skill, and thoughtfulness to everything she does. She was truly a blessing to our family.

I’m a DONA-trained birth and postpartum doula who blends city grit with grounded, nature-rooted care. My journey began supporting friends through birth and postpartum while navigating the unpredictable life of a military family. A path that taught me flexibility, compassion, and a deep respect for the strength of parents. Before becoming a doula, I worked as a corrections officer, where I honed the skills to stay calm under pressure and advocate fiercely for others. Today, I bring that same steady confidence to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Once a city girl, now deeply connected to nature, I offer a balance of strength and softness to every family I serve. As a mom to two spirited boys and two lovable fur babies, I know firsthand how messy, magical, and transformative those early days can be. Whether you’re preparing for birth or adjusting to life with a newborn, I’m here to walk beside you with knowledge, warmth, and zero judgment.

Working with Doula Chantal was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the moment we first connected, she made me feel completely supported, informed, and cared for. Throughout my pregnancy, Chantal provided so much knowledge and reassurance, helping me feel confident and calm as I prepared for birth. During labor, she was an incredible source of comfort, gentle, attentive, and so in tune with what I needed, often before I even had to ask. Her presence helped create a peaceful and empowering environment that allowed me to focus and trust my body. After birth, Doula Chantal continued to check in and offer guidance, helping me navigate everything from breastfeeding to postpartum recovery with patience and compassion. It truly felt like having a knowledgeable friend by my side through every step. 10/10 would recommend her!!!

With years of experience as a dedicated midwife, my journey into newborn care has been a natural and deeply fulfilling progression. Supporting families through birth has given me a profound understanding of the gentle care, patience, and presence that newborns need. My background has equipped me not only with clinical expertise, but also with the emotional insight that comes from truly connecting with both babies and their families. What inspires me most is the opportunity to work with children. There’s a unique joy and innocence in every little one, and being a part of their earliest days is a privilege I hold close to my heart. I love watching their personalities begin to unfold and knowing that the nurturing and support I provide can make a lasting impact on their growth and development. Helping families feel confident and cared for during this tender time is what continues to drive my passion every day.

Hello! I’m Lindsay, a birth and postpartum doula and mom of 2. I became passionate about maternal wellness when I was expecting my first child in Norway. I received such quality care — midwives, visiting baby nurses, cushy parental leave! — but I was still missing the emotional support and expertise I needed to help me navigate a foreign medical system and the many anxieties I held as a first time parent. Since then, I’ve learned from hundreds of parents that they, too, needed more support than was available to them. Often times, they felt others were pushing an agenda that was not in their best interest. I became a doula to help change that, one family at a time. I’m here to hold space for you, learn with you, ease your fears, and empower you to feel confident through this important time in your life. If you are looking for a doula to help you birth and nurture your child on your own terms, please consider booking a free consultation with me. I’d love to learn more about you and see if we are a good fit.

Recent review

Asking Lindsay to be our Doula and specifically assist with postpartum care is the best decision we could have made as parents. Our second born was much more challenging than our first and loved to scream all hours of the day. Not only is Lindsay educated, great at explaining things, and creative, she also has a very patient and calming presence that we desperately needed. SOme of the other Doulas I met were too "out there" and I appreciated Lindsay's "down to earth" responses that were kind and intelligent. She helped us feel confident and stay focused and calm when we thought we couldn't handle the screaming anymore. She gave us reassurance even as second time parents, we couldn't have done it without her!
