Hi, I'm Toni! I am a postpartum doula and experienced infant care provider with years of hands-on experience caring for babies and supporting families. I am also the mother of six children and the proud grandmother of a little girl, so nurturing babies has been a meaningful part of both my personal and professional life. I own and operate a licensed 5-star childcare program, where infant care has always been the area I enjoy most.. My approach is calm, nurturing and dependable. I have experience with feeding and bottle preparation, diapering, soothing, safe sleep practices, infant routines and supporting parents as they adjust to life with their baby. I am now expanding my professional focus into newborn and postpartum care throughout the coast, with the goal of specializing in the first months of a baby's life. I am especially interested in providing daytime (weekends only), evening and overnight support that allows parents to rest while knowing their baby is being cared for with patience and attention. I believe every family deserves support during the postpartum period, and I would love to learn more about your family's needs.

I had a wonderful experience with HumbleWombs. She made me feel so relaxed during the mist of my labor. She advocated for me and made sure it was about what was best for me during my pregnancy and labor. She spent lots of time with me after my labor and supported me through breast feeding. I couldn’t have asked for a better DOULA. Nas❤️

Akira provided amazing service from beginning to end. Her passion and approach is remarkable and the care received is genuine and personalised. You will feel at ease and have faith that your requests are met and any questions are answered. The service is completely tailored to your needs and Akira will always be in your corner to advocate and check up on you at any given time. My birth experience was truly magical. I was able to have an unmedicated, unassisted lotus home birth whilst Akira was my virtual support. Although we are thousands of miles apart that didn’t stop the dedication and support provided by Akira. She supported me during pregnancy, throughout my labour, advocate for me in hospital and check up on me and baby postpartum. I have been constantly reassured with concerns I had with postpartum mental health, breastfeeding or baby’s health. If you’re looking for a one of a kind experience that meets your goals, you will not be disappointed with Akira🤍.

Hello everyone, my name is Maria and I’m an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant with over ten years of experience supporting families through every stage of their feeding journey. My approach is rooted in patience, respect, and a no pressure philosophy, because I believe care should feel empowering, never overwhelming. I’ve worked across virtual, bedside, and outpatient settings, and I’ve had the privilege of teaching RNs and MDs about lactation support in hospital environments. I also lead community outreach efforts, including prenatal breastfeeding classes that center warmth, clarity, and cultural sensitivity. Currently, I’m accepting new clients and proudly partnering with Wildflower and The Lactation Network to expand access to compassionate, evidence-based care. Whether it’s your first baby or your fifth, I’m here to support you with calm, judgment-free guidance tailored to your needs.

We had such a wonderful experience with our lactation consultant. From the moment she walked in, she brought a sense of calm, understanding, and support that we desperately needed. She took the time to really listen, explain everything clearly, and guide us without any judgment. Her expertise was evident, but what meant the most was how validated and understood she made us feel throughout the entire process. We are so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to any family needing lactation support.

Briana is such an incredible doula! She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, warm, and makes you feel supported and cared for every step of the way. I cannot recommend her highly enough! She helped us during pregnancy and beyond with both of our children and I'm forever grateful. I wish everyone could have a Briana in this special time in their lives!

Recent lactation consultant reviews near Pinehurst

Amanda is the best when it comes to lc (I’ve seen many). She is understanding and emotionally involved every step of the way. Breastfeeding is already a struggle so finding someone who comes from a place of no judgment and respects your needs is important. I recommend Amanda to every mom to be who is looking for the best kind of support.

— kelli baker, review of Amanda Petry February 2026

Amanda was amazing for my breastfeeding journey! The first few months I wasn’t sure if we’d make it to even 3 months and now we’re gonna finish out a whole year soon. Came to us which was super helpful with a newborn.
