Hello parents! My name is Yahaira Ruiz, and I’m a trained Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula with professional experience supporting families throughout Long Island. I specialize in providing compassionate, structured, and reliable care for newborns, ensuring their safety, comfort, and healthy development from the very first days at home. In my role, I assist parents with establishing feeding and sleep routines, maintaining detailed care records, and creating a calm and nurturing environment for both baby and family. My background in childcare has helped me develop strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills, while responding confidently in any situation.

Fluent in both English and Spanish, I’m dedicated to making every family feel supported and empowered as they adjust to life with their new baby.

With over 20 years of experience supporting families across six countries, I bring a deep understanding of the diverse ways cultures nurture parent-child relationships. My journey into birth work began as a Health Community Worker, advocating for immigrant Latino families in New York. Later, while working at a mental health agency in Connecticut, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact that nurturing, consistent, and responsive caregiving has on a child’s development. This realization fueled my passion for family support and led me to become a Birth and Postpartum Doula, ensuring families receive guidance and care from the very start of their parenting journey. Three years ago, I earned my certification in Perinatal Mental Health, allowing me to further support families through the emotional complexities of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Fluent in both Spanish and English, I am dedicated to creating a compassionate and culturally informed space for every family I serve.
