Hello! My name is Amanda Sands and I am a Birth Arts International Certified Postpartum Doula and Night Nanny in Pennsburg, PA. As a mama of three, I know how important it is for new moms to rest and recover after birth. As a Postpartum Doula I provide physical, emotional, and feeding support to new moms so they can rest and bond with baby, without worrying about keeping up with the daily household chores and meal preparation. I offer non-judgmental support and advice so you can feel confident and informed as you start your new role as mom. I have also been a Nanny for over five years, supporting multiple families overnight. I understand how important it is for new parents to maximize their nighttime sleep, so they can be well rested while caring for baby during the day. I would be honored to support your family during the day or overnight. I offer a holistic approach when supporting new parents in their home. I want to ensure everyone in the family feels supported and adjusts to their new roles, including pets! I am CPR/First Aid certified and have clearances including child abuse, criminal background, and FBI/PA fingerprinting. In my free time I enjoy walking, card games, and spending time with my kids.

Physical Support Postpartum is a time for Mom to rest and heal from childbirth. I will take on the daily tasks of light housekeeping, snack and meal preparation, laundry, and more so you can rest with baby! Emotional Support I provide emotional support to new moms who experience the normal ups and downs due to hormonal changes after giving birth. I listen without judgement and provide advice and encouragement when needed. I will help you process your birth story, provide emotional and mental health support, and always show empathy, understanding, and companionship - you are not alone in this! Feeding Support A fed baby is a happy baby! Whether you choose to breastfeed or bottle feed, I will support and encourage you during those first few weeks with baby. Breastfeeding may be natural, but it can be challenging in the beginning. I offer support with nursing positions, proper latch, tips, and resources throughout your breastfeeding journey.
