Hello, my name is Martha J. I am a Certified Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist (NCS) with over 24 years of hands-on experience supporting families since 2000. I am deeply drawn to this work because I value the family environment and the critical role of care during the earliest days after birth. I provide emotional and practical support to parents both individually and as a couple, helping them navigate the transition with confidence and calm. Supporting mothers during the first weeks postpartum is a true calling for me. Caring for the newborn while parents recover from the long, demanding hours of labor, whether in a hospital setting or following a home birth, is work I find meaningful. I am experienced in breastfeeding support, including baby latching, milk production, expression, safe milk storage, and bottle feeding. I closely monitor the baby’s well-being, bringing the baby to the mother for feedings, changing diapers, swaddling, and supporting healthy sleep routines. I maintain clear daily communication with parents regarding their baby’s care and development. Additional responsibilities include washing pump accessories and bottles, wipes and diapers, diaper cream, etc., refills, light nursery tidying, and newborn laundry. My goal is to create a stable, supportive environment in which both parents and baby can rest, recover, and bond.

Hi parents, my name is Lindsey. I’ve been a nanny for 17+ years with most of my focus on children ages newborn to 6 years old. I am a specialized professional who will provide superior care and support to cater to each child individually. With my many years of experience, I am able to provide a top tier level of service for your family. I also support families as they welcome their new babies to the world. A postpartum doula/nanny is a valuable short term partner to help mom and dad rest during this huge life transition. I am dedicated to providing you with individualized service to aid in your newborns development and also providing you with essential skills and support that will help them thrive in all aspects of life.

As first time parents with demanding schedules, my wife and I knew we could use an extra set of helping hands. Lindsey was a Godsend and we honestly don’t know how we would have survived the last few months without her by our side. Not only did she give top tier care to our newborn but she was a mentor, friend and so much more. The help began before the baby even arrived with tips and suggestions as we waited to welcome our new addition. The help continued after arrival with tending to our colicky baby so we could rest and recharge our batteries to manage our busy days. She fed the baby, cared for the baby, taught us about sleep training and even helped with breast feeding concerns. As first time parents, we did all the reading and felt even with the knowledge we had learned on our own, Lindsey brought more to the table than we could have even hoped for. With so many years of experience and the delicate touch to soothe a fussy little one, she was well worth every penny. We have also already recommended her to several soon to be parents and think so highly of her, just wanted to take the time to share our amazing experience… Thank you Lindsey!

Hi I'm Kyndal!My path into postpartum care began in 2017 as a nanny for families with newborns. I had the privilege of growing alongside many families during their baby's first year of life, most of them first-time parents. While I loved caring for newborns, I quickly realized my true passion was educating and supporting parents as they transitioned from the hospital to home. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of families, including those welcoming premature babies, growing their families through adoption or surrogacy, and, most recently, caring for twins and multiples, a specialty that has become one of my most recent favorites. In 2021, I completed my training through Newborn Care Solutions to become a Newborn Care Specialist, allowing me to deepen my knowledge and provide even more comprehensive support to families. Then, in 2024, while working with a family on newborn sleep, I was given the opportunity to pursue my certification as a Postpartum Doula. After becoming certified, I retired from full-time nannying to dedicate my career exclusively to overnight postpartum care. My career and entrepreneurial journey have uniquely positioned me to support families beyond the traditional six-week postpartum period. Rather than offering short-term care, I work with families for 16 to 21 weeks. This extended support allows us to establish healthy newborn sleep habits from the very beginning while giving parents a trusted newborn guide they can rely on during one of the biggest transitions of their lives. My goal is to support your entire family, not just your baby. From your in-home newborn care and postpartum preparation class during pregnancy to my very last overnight, I am there to support your physical recovery, emotional well-being, and growing confidence as a parent. I don't believe my role ends when things become more challenging. Babies change quickly, and every stage brings new questions, new routines, and new adjustments. I want to walk alongside your family through those changes, helping you troubleshoot, adapt, and discover what works best for your unique home. When my time with your family comes to an end, my hope is that you don't feel overwhelmed or uncertain. Instead, I want you to feel rested, supported, educated, If you're looking for a postpartum doula who prioritizes your recovery while helping your baby build healthy sleep habits from the very beginning, I'd love to connect. I specialize in long-term support, partnering with families for a minimum of 16 weeks to create lasting routines and confidence.

Kyndal from confident mama and baby care absolutely changed our lives for the better! Our sweet baby girl came early and was battling feeding difficulties and had trouble sleeping because of it. Kyndal was so knowledgeable and really listened to us. She was incredible with her and was there for not only our baby, but for us as well so that we could be our best! I wish we could keep Kyndal forever we miss her so much! 100% recommend Kyndal for newborn and postpartum care!

Hi y’all, For those interested in using a doula for your next pregnancy I highly recommend Juanita Lewis-Jones. She offered prenatal, delivery, and postpartum support and has been an absolute blessing to my husband and I. Doulas provide emotional support and work along side the medical providers. Juanita attended my first delivery at BAMC, helped me understand my options, and allowed me to make critical decisions in the labor room when it was most needed. She has such a calming presence and I felt comfortable leaning on her for guidance and support. Juanita is retired military and is very familiar with our particular needs as we are here on military orders and do not have any family in the area. She met with us virtually which made our meetings so convenient for our busy schedules. I would recommend requesting a doula early in pregnancy as their services are well sought after; however, they give priority to military, teen moms, and low income families. We have Christian and Buddhist backgrounds. If you’d like to incorporate belief into your journey, she will accommodate the request, but won’t push any particular sect which was perfect for our bi-cultural family. I recommend to every pregnant mom I meet to allow a doula to be part of their birth story. Juanita made all the difference in our experience. We have a healthy baby girl and I have healed both mentally and physically more quickly than I ever thought possible and I full heartedly believe it was due to her influence and support. We are better prepared as parents and partners to each other moving forward. We do and will always love Juanita like a family member Sincerely, Erika & Alex Rattanatay

Angelica was such a huge help to us with our twins! She was so thoughtful, caring, and provided great sleep guidance to us during the 4 month sleep regression period. I would highly recommend Angelica to families needing that extra support and rest.

October 2026

I feel incredibly fortunate to have had Julie as our night doula! Julie is everything you could hope for in a doula—proactive, punctual, reliable, experienced, and genuinely loving toward our son. Her care and dedication began long before our baby arrived. She visited me twice before delivery, brought helpful preparation materials, and consistently checked in to see how I was doing. She stayed in close communication to make sure everything was coordinated and that support would be available when we needed it. Our son ended up arriving a week earlier than expected, but Julie went above and beyond to adjust her schedule and be there for us on our very first night home from the hospital. That support meant so much to us, especially as first-time parents navigating those overwhelming early days. Throughout our time together, Julie was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. She always provided detailed notes about our son’s nights, kept us updated on anything she noticed, and helped us think through possible reasons behind certain behaviors or symptoms. She also generously shared a wealth of helpful resources and practical information to guide us through various situations and challenges with our newborn. Her experience, patience, and genuine care gave us so much comfort and confidence. Most importantly, it was clear how much love and tenderness Julie brought to caring for our son. Knowing he was in such caring and capable hands allowed our family to rest and recover with peace of mind. I truly cannot thank Julie enough for the warmth, kindness, and exceptional care she brought to our son and our entire family. She made such a meaningful difference during one of the most important transitions of our lives. I wholeheartedly recommend Julie to any family looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely caring doula. Any family would be lucky to have her!

We absolutely loved having Christina as our overnight doula! She was always on time, reliable, and such a joy to have in our home. She helped coach us through the newborn stage with sleep and feeding strategies that helped our baby stay comfortable and sleep longer stretches—which saved us some much-needed sleep and sanity! Christina quickly felt like part of the family. We would talk and laugh before bed, and she embraced our toddler and even our dog just as much as our new baby. Her support was especially meaningful as I navigated being newly postpartum while also going through cancer treatment. We trusted her completely and are so grateful she was part of this season with our family. We would recommend Christina in a heartbeat!
