Change your life

(...AND your sleep.)

FEELING tired and overwhelmed isn't fun

LET'S MAKE SURE IT doesn't HAPPEN TO YOU.

As a postpartum doula and a pediatric sleep consultant I can offer support from the first day you bring your newborn home through any sleep struggles you may face down the line. As rewarding as it is, parenting can be hard and you shouldn’t have to do it all alone. Sometimes just having another set of hands or a trusted ear is what makes all the difference.

When your baby isn’t sleeping it can affect the whole family. Having a plan and lots of support can be just what you need to get the sleep that you need and deserve as well as helping your child to self soothe and sleep independently

Postpartum Doula Support

Certified by:

Bringing a new baby home can be overwhelming but it doesn’t have to be. Hiring a postpartum doula can make for a smooth transition and make you feel supported in those first few weeks. You will have someone who is solely there to help you recover and rest.

What happens when you combine two postpartum doulas, each with their own specialty? An educational and entertaining prenatal class, of course! Liz Lehman from Nourished Family, a certified lactation counselor and postpartum doula, and I have teamed up to present a fun and engaging class to teach you and your partner all the things you didn’t know that you needed to know.

Newborn Sleep Shaping

Certified by:

Setting a strong foundation right from the start is important for creating positive sleep hygiene. I can help teach you gentle ways to shape your newborn’s sleep habits.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

What if I have questions in the middle of the night?

If you are struggling through the night feel free to text or email those questions so you don’t forget and I will get back to you at 9am. If it is an emergency please call me

What if I need to add more postpartum hours?

I am happy to add more hours if I don’t have another commitment at the end of our contract.

What will I do without you?

My job is to work myself out of a job so when our time together is over you should feel confident and ready to do it on your own. You can always schedule an Ask Me Anything call if you still need some guidance

Do you come to our home to implement the sleep plans that you design?

No, I give you a step by step, personalized sleep plan that you will follow and I will support you remotely during our two weeks together. This gives you the opportunity to read your babes cues, learn their cries and support them through their journey of sleeping independently

Do you do full days as a postpartum doula?

Did you know that I have two incredible jobs? By day, I work virtually as a pediatric sleep coach helping parents teach their little ones to fall asleep independently. 

By night, I am an overnight postpartum doula helping parents navigate the newborn stage with a little extra sleep. I help with breastfeeding, bottle feeding, baby laundry, washing pump parts, soothing, burping, swaddling, etc., so parents can get the rest they need to care for their newborns throughout the day. 

If you’re expecting and live within 20 miles of Yardley, PA, I’d love to chat about how I can support you through the fourth trimester. 

You don’t have to navigate it alone 💗

Send to an expecting family that you know could use some overnight help

Naps are hard. Full 🛑 

Anyone who has had a baby can agree that naps are tricky and sometimes unpredictable, especially if you’re winging it. 

Sleep begets sleep. It’s something I say on repeat to my sleep clients. The better a baby sleeps during the day, the better they will sleep at night. 

It isn’t always as easy as it sounds. There comes a moment in a newborn’s life when they are way more interested in your face than they are sleeping. They probably seem happy and awake, smiling even, but it’s short lived and a minute later they are screaming, arching their back and completely overtired. 

You may wonder how you missed it? They didn’t seem tired at all. 

This is why wake windows are so important. It is so easy to miss a sleepy cue from your baby. It doesn’t take much time for a happy baby to become overtired, and once they are overtired it’s very hard to get them to sleep.

Check out the link in my bio for my free age appropriate sleep chart and never have to wonder what your baby’s wake window is again. 

Learn what their overnight total sleep should be and how that changes as they get older.

Wondering when to drop a nap? That’s in there too!

If you’re feeling like you could use more support with your baby’s sleep habits, send me a dm and let’s schedule a call to chat about it. 

Send to an expecting parent so they can set their baby’s sleep foundations right from the beginning

Have a great week!!
🎉 GIVEAWAY TIME 🎉

✨ I recently came across a game-changing invention for babies — and I had to share it with you!

Meet Bottimals™️ — the first-ever infant bottle-lovey, designed to help babies transition from breast to bottle with ease. It was created by a fellow mom with 13 years of experience in clinical research, this product combines comfort and science in the sweetest way.

What makes it so special? Bottimals™️ uses mom’s scent (patent pending) to turn bottle refusal into bottle bliss. 🍼💕

As a postpartum doula, I’ve fed a lot of babies — and I can tell you firsthand how powerful mom’s scent is. I often drape a worn shirt or used burp cloth over my shoulder to help babies feel calm and secure. Bottimals makes it easier for partners and caregivers to feed the baby too!

Plus, the soft animal lovey adds an extra layer of comfort and distraction — perfect for fussy little ones who struggle with the bottle.

Trust me, this is a must-have for new parents. 🐰👶
