About me

I'm Jennifer Paige, a DONA certified Postpartum Doula with over a decade of experience working with families in the Hunterdon County area. Specializing in caring for infants and parents; my passion lies in offering guidance, comfort, and unwavering support to families eagerly anticipating the arrival of a new member. My commitment goes beyond traditional support; I believe in empowering new parents to use their voices, ensuring they feel heard, seen, and free from judgment. Throughout our time together, my goal is to create an environment where you not only feel supported but also armed with the latest evidence-based information, fostering confidence in your parenting journey. On a personal note, I cherish nature walks unplugged from technology, share a deep bond with animals, and have a knack for baking and cooking. However, my true expertise lies in cleaning and organization. Embracing a zero-waste lifestyle, I'm enthusiastic about sharing eco-friendly alternatives for common household products. Let's embark on this transformative journey together, where support, education, and confidence intersect seamlessly.
