As a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula I offer overnight care primarily. This is to help parents get the much needed rest. I offer sleep training, feeding, changing, keep a log of how the night went.
From the very beginning, JulieAnn proved to be an invaluable presence in our home, providing exceptional care for our baby. One of the things that stood out most about JulieAnn was her excellent communication. After each night, she provided us with thorough updates, keeping us informed about our baby’s sleep, feedings, and overall well-being. Her insights and observations were incredibly helpful, and she always took the time to answer our questions and offer thoughtful suggestions. Beyond her expertise, JulieAnn brought a positive attitude and warmth into our home. She was truly a joy to have with us during such an important and sometimes overwhelming time. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared—not just for our baby, but for our whole family. She was patient, kind, and always encouraging, which made a world of difference as we navigated life with a newborn. JulieAnn was also incredibly reliable and professional. She was always on time and ready to help, giving us peace of mind knowing we could count on her each night. Her consistency and dependability made a challenging period so much more manageable. We always felt confident that our baby was in the best hands. We are grateful for the care and support JulieAnn provided, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for an experienced, compassionate, and dependable night nurse. She made a lasting impact on our family, and any parents who have the opportunity to work with her will be incredibly lucky.

I had the pleasure of having Julie Ann in my Foundations of Child Development course here at Rasmussen College. I can without a doubt say that Julie Ann has been an outstanding student and contributor to the class. Throughout the course, Julie Ann’s work has been outstanding. In her assignments, she went above and beyond the expectations, showing initiative and excellence. She has an excellent grasp of child development. During the quarter, the students have an opportunity to answer questions in a discussion forum. Again, Julie Ann went above and beyond the expectations by researching the topic thoroughly. Many students read her posts and responded to them. Julie Ann’s posts in return were thoughtful and supportive. Often asking questions that would further the on-line discussion. I can recommend Julie Ann, without a doubt for any early childhood position. She is passionate about working with young children and would be an asset to any program or position.

It is with great pleasure that we recommend Julie Ann Bergeson as a postpartum doula. Julie Ann is dedicated, intelligent and a compassionate doula. She is deeply committed to supporting women after the birth of their baby. She met with me in-person prior to the arrival of our baby, to assist us with the necessities for our baby’s nursery. It was so great as we don’t have family close by, so she really helped to put us at ease and gave input with and helped us out so so much! As my postpartum doula, where do I start? Julie Ann was such a calming presence in our home, she rose to the occasion and helped with whatever my needs happened to be for that particular night. She was comfortable and willing to assist. She was a self-starter which was amazing. She helped me with my breastfeeding issues/concerns, offered me resources in terms of a lactation consultant she highly recommended. And she gave us space and was mindful to meet us where we were at. No judgment whatsoever, and offers advice gently and I knew I could rely on her. Julie Ann was a blessing to our family. I am honestly not sure how would have ever handled everything without her. Every woman needs a doula, whether this is her first baby or second or sixth baby. But it is a lucky woman who is able to have a doula as skilled, experienced, loving and patient and oh so amazing as Julie Ann.

I am writing to highly recommend Julie Ann Bergeson, who worked as a night nurse for my family during the summer of 2021. Julie Ann was an absolute blessing during a challenging time in my life. I was struggling with sleep deprivation and postpartum depression, and her calm, nurturing presence provided the support I needed. Julie Ann was incredibly kind and attentive, always going above and beyond without even asking me. She left detailed notes after each shift, documenting my son’s nighttime feeds, diaper changes, and any other pertinent details. She also offered light cooking and cleaning, even though it wasn’t part of her role, which helped ease the load for me. She brought a lot of peace of mind and looked me to get the rest I needed and also offered a comforting shoulder for me to talk to and confide in. Her maternal instincts and gentle approach were exactly what I needed. I feel completely comfortable trusting her with the overnight care of my son, and I looked forward to her shifts because I knew my child was in excellent hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Julie Ann to anyone in need of a night nurse. She is thoughtful, compassionate, and truly dedicated to her work. I am deeply grateful for the care she provided to both Miss child and me during a difficult time.

Her gentle and calming nature helped ease our anxieties and we felt extremely comfortable leaving our son in her care while we were able to get much needed rest. We are grateful we had her support for almost 2 months after giving birth. She was so knowledgeable and encouraging. We love her and would highly recommend her.

I wish I could give a better review, but unfortunately, she canceled on us for her only two scheduled shifts at the last minute. She mentioned a family emergency for the first cancellation and a car accident for the second. While I understand that unexpected situations arise, the cancellations impacted our plans, and reliability was a major concern.

I hired JulieAnn as our postpartum doula…..she was with me several nights a week for overnight help. I can’t recommend JulieAnn enough. She is incredible sweet, knowledgeable and thoughtful and most importantly trustworthy. She was so kind and supportive and gentle. A wonderful soul. I also gifted my sister a few hours of postpartum support after the birth of her first baby. And JulieAnn was in my sister’s words “a godsend.” I highly recommend JulieAnn!

I hired JulieAnn as my postpartum doula. Our first day home from the hospital JulieAnn came to our home. She is extremely warm and knowledgeable. We immediately felt comfortable with JulieAnn. When I had a question she always helped to guide me through towards making decisions when I felt unsure. She was super sweet with our new little one. A great experience!
