Welcoming a new baby is a joyful and transformative experience that brings a new dynamic to family life. Postpartum doula support offers calm, knowledgeable care to help you feel supported as you adjust. Investing in thoughtful postpartum care is a wonderful way to prioritize your family’s comfort and connection during this special season.
As a DONA-certified Postpartum Doula, I offer comprehensive newborn care to help you recover, rest, and bond with your baby. I provide compassionate, evidence-based guidance in newborn care, infant feeding and lactation, soothing techniques, safe sleep conditioning, age-appropriate routines, postpartum recovery, and more. My DONA certification reflects my deep commitment to supporting families and signifies the successful completion of a rigorous training and evaluation process that upholds the highest professional standards of care.
Hiring a professional who is certified in lactation can also make a significant difference for parents navigating feeding at the breast, combo feeding, or exclusively bottle feeding by providing:
Evidence-Based Guidance: Specialized training in bottle feeding, breastfeeding education, anatomy, and lactation management.
Personalized Support: Tailored guidance to your unique situation—whether it’s latching issues, milk supply concerns, or pumping strategies.
Early Problem Prevention: Identifying potential feeding challenges early and providing solutions before they become major issues.
Community Connection: Connecting families with local resources, support groups, and healthcare providers when needed.

Kind Words From Postpartum Families…
“If you are looking for a reliable, extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, up-to-date educated, emotionally intelligent postpartum doula who possesses strong newborn care skills and experience and offers calm, nonjudgmental and empathetic support, Kimberly is your person! Kimberly first visited me the night after my discharge from the hospital when I was an emotional and physical wreck. Kimberly’s presence, all-encompassing support —then and in the days that followed— assistance with everything from lactation guidance and practical tips, feeding positions, burping, to swaddling, changing diapers, bathing, massage, carriers and wraps use, made me gain my confidence back and helped me understand and normalize all the changes and challenges that come with new motherhood. Kimberly is extremely resourceful and is a great communicator, which crucial, because baby blues can hit anytime, and it is truly invaluable to know that Kimberly can listen and hear you and offer, in a compassionate manner, a solution or simply a shoulder to cry on. Without a doubt, Kimberly will provide a superb, personalized support to any new mother and her baby, helping with anything and everything postpartum. I’m so grateful I had the chance to know Kimberly and be supported by her during such a vulnerable time.”

“I can't recommend Kimberly enough as a postpartum doula! Even before our baby arrived, she was a rockstar, sending over incredibly helpful resources on everything from breastfeeding to nutrition and pumping. Those really helped calm my nerves and made me feel so much more prepared. Once our little one was here, Kimberly was amazing, especially with all things lactation and pumping. But seriously, the biggest gift she gave us was sleep! There were so many nights where she was the only one who could calm our baby and get her to sleep, which meant my husband and I actually got some much-needed rest. She also checked in on me often during the day, always ready with a plan to tackle whatever new challenge popped up. If you're looking for support, Kimberly is truly amazing!”
