Night Nurses & Night Nannies in Toronto, ON

I’m a passionate and experienced parent who knows firsthand how magical - and sometimes overwhelming the newborn stage can be. I had a doula for my own births, and that experience opened my eyes to just how beautiful and capable the human body is. I’ve always been drawn to the process of birth and early parenting, and I’ve loved every stage of being a mom, from breastfeeding all of my babies to babywearing, co-sleeping, and fully embracing the joys and challenges of the newborn period. My philosophy as a postpartum doula is rooted in gentle, intuitive support that honors both baby and parent. I believe every family deserves care, guidance, and reassurance as they navigate the first weeks and months together. I’m here to help parents feel confident, nourished, and supported - whether it’s through hands-on newborn care, breastfeeding support, light household help, or simply being a calm and encouraging presence when you need it most. My goal is to empower families to enjoy this fleeting, transformative stage with less stress and more connection, knowing they are seen, supported, and capable every step of the way.

Hi! I have over three years of experience caring for babies and am CPR and first-aid certified. I have a love for children and am very comfortable working with them. I’d love to help your family get a restful night and get adjusted for a new addition to your family!

I know firsthand how exhausting and overwhelming sleep struggles can feel as a parent. When my own son was waking frequently throughout the night, relying on feeding and rocking to fall asleep, I remember feeling completely lost. I didn’t understand wake windows, sleep needs, or why something that seemed so simple—sleep—could feel so difficult. That experience changed everything for me. I became a certified pediatric sleep consultant because I wanted to help other parents feel less alone and more confident when navigating their child’s sleep. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every baby and toddler is different, and every family deserves a plan that considers their child’s individual needs, temperament, development, and family values. My goal is not just to help your little one sleep better. It’s to help you feel supported, understood, and confident along the way. Whether you need a quick answer to a sleep question or more personalized support, I’m here to help you find a path toward calmer nights and more rested days.I believe sleep training isn’t always the answer. My approach focuses on understanding each child’s unique personality, temperament, and sleep biology to create personalized, responsive sleep support that works for the whole family.

My goal is to ensure every family I work with feels empowered, respected, and cared for during this transformative time.

I started in this field as an infant nanny to my niece back in 2017. Since then I have worked in a variety of childcare settings. My time working at a daycare was spent in the infant room, caring for newborns and up. Most recently, I’ve been a nanny to two wonderful families who I’ve had the privilege of watching their babies grow from newborns to energetic toddlers. I’m extremely passionate about helping families care for their infants and young children.

Id like to show women and families how empowering pregnancy and birth can be. Birth is a sacred and deep journey and my role is to walk beside you. I can offer you things like reassurance, physical comfort, and can provide you with evidence based guidance with your needs/wants. The main goal is for you and your family to feel safe, respected, and fully supported as you welcome your baby.

Offering resources, support and education to family both seasoned and new is something I believe in and hope to be able to help empower parents they being this new journey in life. I hope to help parents fill their birth and postpartum journey with amazing memories.

Birth can be whatever you want or need it to be, and that's where I come in as your doula. Whether you want it to be empowering, transformational, peaceful, healing or you just want to get through it in one piece then working with a doula like me will make all the difference. I'm with you from start to finish, which means from whenever you sign until the end of the fourth trimester, to help any and every way I can. And as a big bonus I also do infant bodywork to help with all of those fun newborn challenges you keep hearing about, like feeding issues or colic. I love what I do and I'm sure you'll love what I do too.

I’m Kait, a Toronto-based (but very mobile!), DONA International-trained doula who is ready to support you throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond! I have a strong passion for pregnancy, birth, babies, and supporting new parents, and my patience, care, and understanding nature are what set me apart. I will always listen without judgement and be here to advocate for you and your family. Think of me as your pregnancy and birth coach – whether this is your first child or your fifth, I am here to support you similarly to how a personal trainer helps you at the gym, how a wedding planner helps you achieve your dream wedding, or how a tour guide helps you plan your perfect vacation. From day one, I will support your pregnancy with resources, information, and education; your birth with positivity and hands-on comfort measures; and your early post-partum journey with confidence and love. I will be by your side as you bring your baby into the world whether at a hospital, birthing centre, or in the comfort of your own home. Once baby is born, I will continue to provide you with educational support as well as encouragement and emotional support as you become acquainted with your baby. I will support your infant feeding journey (breastfeeding or otherwise) and offer household organizational support. My first language is English, but I can also support you in conversational French, Portuguese, and basic Italian! Aside from supporting families as they grow, I have a passion for travelling, art, and food!
