About me

With over 17 years of experience as a holistic healer and a deep passion for nurturing children and families, I bring a unique and comprehensive approach to my role as a Birth & Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specilalist. My career began as an infant-toddler teacher, where I developed expertise in early childhood development, providing care that supports both the physical and emotional growth of young children. Over the years, I’ve continued to specialize in infant care, serving as a private nanny for families and gaining hands-on experience in nurturing the needs of newborns. As a certified postpartum doula and newborn care specialist, I am well-versed in providing thoughtful, trauma-informed care to both babies and their parents during the most delicate early months. My background as a holistic healer, specializing in therapeutic massage, yoga, Breathwork, and meditation, informs my nurturing approach. I am dedicated to creating calm, balanced environments where children and families feel safe, supported, and cared for. I am committed to offering the highest level of service, fostering loving, mindful connections every step of the way. Outside of work, I live a full life filled with lots of travel, hiking with my two dogs, Louie and Lily, spending lots of quality time with my nieces and nephews and friends and family.
