About me

I am a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist dedicated to supporting babies and their families. I am currently working towards my nursing prerequisites at Northern Virginia Community College with hopes to pursue a career in lactation consulting in 2025. I am passionate about providing care for families of all backgrounds and cultures. One of my greatest joys is helping new parents learn how go care for their newborns. I am able to help families with diaper changing, bottle sanitizing and preparation, bathing, nursery organization, baby laundry, and much more. I am also experienced in umbilical and circumcision care. I take into consideration the individual needs of each family I work with, striving to guide them through the first months of parenthood. My goal is to help parents feel confident in baby care, nutrition, and safety. Additionally, I have extensive experience with toddlers and school-aged children, having worked as a nanny, lead teacher, and daycare assistant. With this background, I am familiar with creating developmentally appropriate activities for children of all ages. Helping siblings transition into their big sister/brother role is a passion of mine.
