About Reihaneh

My philosophy is that every new parent deserves compassionate, respectful, and nonjudgmental support as they adjust to life with their baby. I provide calm, hands-on care tailored to each family’s culture, preferences, and individual needs. Rather than taking over, I work alongside parents, helping them build confidence in caring for their newborn while ensuring they have time to rest, recover, and feel supported. As a DONA-certified postpartum doula and certified breastfeeding specialist with a background in midwifery and a PhD in Community Nutrition, I combine practical experience with evidence-based guidance. I support families with newborn care, feeding and lactation, postpartum recovery, nutrition, and emotional reassurance. My goal is to create a peaceful environment where parents feel heard, empowered, and confident in making the choices that are right for their family.

Let me just say—it was truly a blessing to have found Reihaneh (Rey) Hadipour to support us on our newborn journey. From day one, she was an incredible help, especially for a first-time mom. Whether it was guiding us through different feeding positions, showing us how to bathe the baby, gently clipping those delicate little nails, or offering countless other thoughtful services, Rey brought both care and confidence to every moment. She comes with a wealth of experience and is truly a compassionate, skilled professional. We’re so grateful for her support during such a special and tender time in our lives

She was an amazing help! I couldn’t have asked for a better doula postpartum. She was kind and attentive, and very supportive. She had a lot of respect and compassion and she is very knowledgeable about breastfeeding and nutrition, and just overall very intelligent. She was very good to my baby. I was very happy with her services and she helped me tremendously, even in a short amount of time.

Rey was absolutely incredible and worth every penny! I struggled with baby blues pretty bad the first few weeks after my son’s birth and did not want to be alone when my husband went back to work, so we hired Rey! She was always on time, flexible when we needed to switch dates and times, and also had a smile! She is so incredibly knowledgeable about babies and really helped me figure out what was causing my son’s reflux! I knew that I would be heading back to work and I needed my son to take a bottle which he refused to do, until Rey started working with him everyday and he now takes a bottle! She was truly what I needed during my postpartum time and I cannot recommend her enough, you will not be disappointed!
