Hello! My name is Allison McDonald, and I’m a professional postpartum doula with a passion for nurturing families during the tender weeks and months after birth. I am a certified childbirth educator, a certified massage therapist, and trained doula. Before stepping into postpartum work, I spent over ten years as a professional nanny, caring for primarily newborns, infants and, toddlers. I also have experience with overnight newborn care. My goal is to support families in whatever way they need.

I also assist with light household tasks like meal prep, errands, laundry, light cleaning, and organizing to help make your home feel calmer and more manageable.

Hello! My name is Amy Adams. I am a wife, mother, preschool teacher and certified postpartum doula. As someone who suffered from postpartum depression I know what I wish I'd have had in my postpartum journey that I did not. I strive to make mothers feel supported and nurtured during their 4th trimester. I would love to be a listening ear, a supportive friend, a vocal cheerleader and a willing helper to you and your family.

Here is a little background on me (the short version) - I started working at KinderCare during my summers in college. 2016-2018. August of 2018 I started nannying for a 15 month old while I was still finishing my Bachelors Degree. I stayed with that family until I graduated college in May of 2020. (I actually still have contact with this family and remain very close with them.) I graduated college from UMN Twin Cities with a BS in Child Developmental Psychology. After college I worked as an ABA therapist for Kiddos with Autism. Then I moved to a school district and worked in SPED with kiddos with EBD (emotional behavioral disorder). Finally that brings me to my current job 2020-now. I work as a Guardian ad Litem for the State of Minnesota. Essentially a cross between an attorney and a child advocate in the family court system. I am looking for some part time work for a couple of reasons, but the main reason is I recently lost my mom to chemotherapy complications in May of 2024. Since then I have been trying to find things that bring me joy in such dark times. Children are that joy for me. While I work with children in my regular career, I want to get back to my roots in providing direct one on one care for kiddos.
