Hi! My name is Melissa Lucchesi. I am a certified fertility, birth and postpartum doula and maternal mental health coach. I own Moon Sage Mama, which is a beautiful cooperative made up of amazing trauma-informed and mental health and wellness supportive doulas! I have spent the last 2 decades in the trauma world, and deeply know professionally and personally how much trauma-informed support in the birth and postpartum space matters. That’s why everyone who works with us can be assured gentle and loving, compassionate support through a trauma-informed lens. That means “Your body. Your birth. Your baby.” Whether you carry with you a trauma history, prior birth or fertility trauma, extra anxieties, or you just want an extra layer of loving kindness in your support, reach out and connect! Wishing you a beautiful, healing birthing day!

I have been so lucky to hire Melissa twice as a doula now and I could not recommend her services enough. She is a wonderful advocate for mothers and truly listened to what I needed. She gave me the space to think about what my needs might be and I don’t think I would have known without her there to ask those questions. She helped prep our whole family in a way where I felt so well cared for. For both of the births Melissa was there for, as soon as she walked in I felt a huge sigh of relief. She was there and she had me and my back and I fully trusted her to guide me. We were also fortunate enough to hire her postpartum doulas! We had the pleasure of working with Veronica, Danielle and Bernadette. Everyone brought different outstanding qualities that were a total joy to experience. They went above and beyond to learn about our families needs and fit right in. I trusted all of them with my postpartum care, cooking meals, giving my husband a break and endless sibling entertainment for my bigger kids so I could snuggle in bed with our new baby. I felt so well supported my body was able to heal physically and I could emotionally take space when needed. There was always round the clock care and they were quick to fill our schedule when I quickly realized I needed more support than I had initially intended. I wish all mothers could experience this kind of care.

Kristen Hunter

10 years of experience

My name is Kristen. I am a Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and pediatric Registered Dietitian (RDN) with over 10 years of experience in hospitals, NICUs, community programs, early intervention, feeding therapy, WIC, and private practice. I have such a passion for advocating for parents and babies during this intimate and vulnerable time, and I love holding space for new families as they navigate parenthood. I believe lactation support should be accessible, realistic, and non-judgmental; my job is to figure out what works for YOU and YOUR baby. Your feeding journey is as unique as you are, and I will always meet you where you're at, hold space for you for the hard times, celebrate your wins, and fiercely support you in your decisions. Outside of my day to day, I am an avid reader, yogi, and artist, and enjoy exploring new coffee shops and breweries with my husband and our dog, where we live outside of Philadelphia, PA.

I cannot recommend Kristen and the Lactation Mentor enough! I struggled so much with my first baby (only made it 4 months breastfeeding - so many clogged ducts/almost mastitis even with 2 local lactation specialists) and was highly recommended by a mom friend to connect with Kristen before I had my baby. Kristen was the BEST resource and investment for our family and I cannot thank her enough. My husband and I truly believe we have a healthier baby/mom/family because she walked with me to prepare for the hardest season of motherhood postpartum. Her program gave me the tools I needed to prepare before my baby came, but her heart was what walked with me every step. She is the most genuine, passionate, human being, and I am truly honored to know her. Preparation brings peace, and Kristen prepared me to the point where I knew what to do. My goal was 6 months breastfeeding. I am now 15 months and counting breastfeeding my little one! She helped me build my confidence as a mom and became the first in my family to breastfeed (I came from a formula only family). I have a healthy baby and am much healtheir mom, and truly think she’s making a huge difference for so many mamas and babies (alongside Taylor - I was so happy they created a program and wish this was a standard for every mom!) Thank you Kristen! ❤️😭

Hello, my name is Katia Almada, and I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula dedicated to helping families feel supported, confident, and cared for as they welcome their new baby. Through my practice, Golden Hour Doula, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment where parents can focus on bonding with their baby, recovering peacefully, and feeling empowered in their journey into parenthood.

Recent review

Katia has been my postpartum doula and caregiver for my baby boy since February 2025. She consistently takes initiative in ways that truly lighten my load as a new mom. One moment that stands out was when she noticed I was juggling baby care and chores—without me even asking, she washed the baby's clothes and bedsheets, took out the trash, and even helped cut vegetables for dinner. She always notices what needs to be done and jumps in with such care and thoughtfulness—it’s clear she’s not just doing a job, but genuinely wants to support and nurture. This was my first baby, and I had never used a doula service before, so I was initially skeptical and a bit anxious about having someone new in our home during such a vulnerable and emotional time. But from the very beginning, Katia made me feel at ease. Although she has extensive experience with babies, she remains open and flexible—listening carefully to my needs and respecting our preferences. She remembered all the little things I mentioned and adapted her care accordingly. Even now, with my baby being 8 months old, I still turn to Katia when I need someone trustworthy to watch him for a few hours. That’s how much confidence and comfort she’s brought to our family. Both my husband and I are deeply grateful for her help—having Katia as our doula has been such a positive and reassuring experience. She made a lasting impact on our early journey as parents, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her by their side.
