Welcoming a new baby brings joy and adjustment to family life. I offer calm, knowledgeable postpartum support as you adjust. I bring expertise grounded in evidence and care rooted in empathy. As a Certified Lactation Provider, Certified Postpartum Doula (DONA), and Newborn Care Specialist with a master's degree in public health and 15+ years in healthcare, I offer comprehensive knowledge across multiple areas. But there's more to care than credentials—compassionate support is what brings it all together.

Customized postpartum care planning that addresses sleep management, postpartum recovery, attachment parenting, routines, and more!

I focus on early problem prevention by identifying potential feeding challenges and providing solutions before they become issues.

Seattle’s Eastside Provider for Postpartum & Lactation Support
After becoming a mother to two wonderful children, I developed a passion for postpartum care. My own experiences taught me how vital it is to have postpartum support during the fourth trimester.
My goal is to empower you with knowledge, hold space for your questions, and support your choices that feel best for your family. With evidence-based information and personalized care, I'm here to help you feel confident and supported. I offer weekend morning postpartum support (flexible 4–7 hour shifts, 5am–12pm) and lactation consultations.
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!”
