About me
As a certified ProDoula, I provide compassionate and personalized support to mothers, newborns, and families during the postpartum period. The early weeks after welcoming a baby can bring both joy and adjustment, and my goal is to help families feel confident, supported, and cared for during this special time. I offer hands-on assistance with newborn care, breastfeeding support, emotional encouragement, and light household organization. My role is to create a calm and nurturing environment where parents can rest, recover, and focus on bonding with their baby while gaining confidence in their parenting journey. Whether you are a first-time parent or welcoming another child into your family, I am dedicated to making the postpartum transition smoother, more peaceful, and empowering for both mother and family.

Service introduction
As a certified ProDoula, I provide comprehensive, family-centered postpartum support to help families transition smoothly into life with their newborn. My services include hands-on newborn care, including feeding, meeting baby’s basic needs, and soothing, while supporting parents in building confidence and competence in caring for their baby. I offer feeding support, guiding mothers through common challenges and helping to establish healthy, sustainable routines. I also assist with light household organization and meal preparation to promote a calm, functional, and supportive home environment. Care is thoughtfully centered on the mother’s health and well-being, with attention to postpartum recovery and support around potential anxiety or emotional overwhelm. I provide a safe, reassuring space for parents to process the adjustments of postpartum life with empathy and understanding. In alignment with the ProDoula model, I offer attentive, non-medical support as an additional set of eyes and ears in the home. This includes observing feeding patterns, monitoring for any signs of infant distress, and providing sensory nurturing care while modeling evidence-based best practices. Evening and overnight support are available to help families obtain the rest they need. My goal is to foster a peaceful, nurturing environment where families feel supported, confident, and able to focus on bonding and building a strong connection with their baby.

Dionne greeted me on my first night at home with my newborn, and I knew immediately that we were both in good hands due to her warm, calming, and joyful presence. We were only able to work together a handful of nights, but I would definitely work with Dionne again!
