About Rachel

Hello, my name is a Rachel. I am a Certified Postpartum Doula that located in New Jersey. Helping people is my passion and I have over 15 years' experience in the medical field. Whether this is your first baby or fifth, I would love the opportunity to help your family grow in a judgement - free zone. I am here to help, emotionally or mentally. I don't have much free time, as I help my dad on his farm as well as my other jobs, but when I do get a moment, I enjoy hanging out with my husband and our two cats. I also enjoy the aunt life, and it is busy. Six nephews and one niece of all ages keep me busy!

Rachel (Roo) is one of the most selfless people I know. She is beyond caring and compassionate. She was so flexible, available when I needed her, and ready to lend a hand with anything. She sat next to me as I rode the waves of postpartum with my first. My second was born at 25 weeks, and Roo got special training to ensure we felt comfortable with her providing overnight care. I have always felt at ease when Roo is with me. She supported our entire family and has been there for us every step of the way!

Rachel was the additional blessing we needed after Madeleine was born. I'm a first time mom and this experience was so much easier on my husband and I, both physically and emotionally with her there. She wasn't just there to take care of Maddy's needs, but also gave us reassurance that we are doing everything right, we're going to be ok, and most importantly that Maddy had the care and comfort she needed. I cannot thank Rachel enough for her support, knowledge, and assistance during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much for everything!

We used Rachel as our postpartum dual and can not say enough good things about her surface it was. She was helpful an educated, she held this with a any arising issues and answered every question that we through her way. If she did not know the answer, she would do her best to get us every source that could give us a direct answer. Day or night, she was readily available she set us up for a successful day a had. Bottles were sanitized, she made a few for us before she laughed. She was very loving and treated are some like her own. She always left him sad and change so my wife and I could get some extra sleep. He would we will be using Rachel again when the time comes
