About me

Hi! I’m Trisha, a postpartum doula with a big heart for babies and the people who bring them into this world. I’ve spent over 15 years caring for little ones and supporting new families, and I truly believe that no one should have to walk this journey alone. Those early days (and nights!) with a newborn can be beautiful, overwhelming, and everything in between. I’m here to be a calm and steady presence, someone who shows up with open arms, a listening ear, and a helping hand. Through Melodies in Bloom Doula Services, I offer both daytime and overnight support. Whether you need extra rest, help with newborn care, or just someone to talk to during a 3 a.m. feeding, I’ve got you. My goal is to support you in a way that feels natural and empowering, like having a good friend who happens to know a lot about babies! You’ve got this… and I’ve got you.

Service introduction

As a postpartum doula, I offer both daytime and overnight support to help you feel more rested, confident, and cared for in this deeply personal season of life. My care goes beyond just baby snuggles (though there will be plenty of those!). I’m here to support you in every way. To help you heal physically, emotionally, and mentally as you adjust to this new chapter. Whether it’s holding space for your birth story, offering a moment of quiet so you can breathe, or reminding you that you’re doing an amazing job, my goal is to show up with warmth, understanding, and no judgment. During daytime visits, I can help with newborn care, feeding support (bottle or breastfeeding), light housework, education, running light errands and anything else that brings ease to your day. Overnight care gives you the chance to rest while I handle feedings, diaper changes, and soothing so you can recharge. Every family is different, so I tailor my support to fit your rhythms and needs, always with your healing and well-being at the center of it all.
