About me
🌟 – The Maternal Concierge / Whispering Lullabies / Birth Mamas Hi, I’m Tory Whitney, founder of The Maternal Concierge. I help parents build restful, supported homes in the critical early stages of parenthood. Through **Whispering Lullabies**, **Birth Mamas**, and our **Virtual Concierge**, my team and I provide hands-on newborn care, postpartum mental health support, and sleep coaching rooted in compassion and experience. With over 25 years of childcare experience, a background as a Naval Hospital Corpsman, and as a mom of four, I’ve supported over 100 families in home including high-profile clients, through the unpredictable journey of birth and beyond. I also specialize in newborn sleep, baby hypnosis, and PMAD-informed care. Our services include: 🌙 Whispering Lullabies– In-home overnight newborn care & gentle sleep coaching (Hampton Roads + expanding regional location and also travel) 🏠 Birth Mamas – In-person postpartum support, lactation help, and classes at our Hampton Roads location 🌐 Virtual Concierge – Mental health check-ins, prenatal/postpartum coaching, Nutrition and virtual newborn care support (coming soon grandparents coaching) ➡️ We’re also building a full-service maternal wellness center (**Birth Mamas**) to address the urgent need for early PMAD support—because 1 in 7 mothers experience postpartum anxiety or depression, and early care changes lives. I’m passionate about creating a safe space for families from all backgrounds, encouraging real conversations, and providing solutions that work for your unique home.

Ratings and reviews
LaTory has been an incredible asset for our family since the day we got home from the hospital with our son Lachlan. She arrived right on time as soon as we got home from the hospital and has been with us every week since. She has a calm yet upbeat and optimistic demeanor, and she always puts my mind at ease. She follows my direction for how I want him to be fed, where and when I want him to sleep, what swaddles to use, etc but she also has very helpful suggestions when I need them as his needs are growing and changing every day. Our older kids love her too, she always has such a nice energy and a smile on her face. She is reliable and punctual, and very responsible. We are so lucky to have her!

K. Murphy September 2023 till December Tory is the absolute biggest blessing to our family. She cares for my twins so well and has seamlessly joined our family dynamic. She is a wealth of knowledge and encourages me daily. She is a natural caretaker and a baby expert. I don’t know how we would manage without her. I get restorative sleep knowing my babies are in such caring hands. My husband and I cannot recommend her enough.

I hired LaTory a month before giving birth in a panic because my 9-month-old was still waking up frequently at night. My goal was to get my baby settled in her room and sleeping through the night before his little brother arrived. With an open-ended arrangement, LaTory achieved this in less than a week! By the second night, my baby dropped her night feeding and was sleeping through, self-soothing back to sleep by the third night. I was amazed. I highly recommend LaTory for anyone seeking baby sleep training!
