Great question! An overnight doula specializes in the care and support of newborns and postpartum parents. While a nanny may focus more on general childcare, I provide holistic overnight support that includes newborn care, emotional support for the birthing parent, breastfeeding guidance, and expert insight into infant sleep and development. My work centers on nurturing both baby and family through the postpartum transition.

While you rest, I care for your baby (or babies) throughout the night. That means soothing, feeding (or bringing baby to you for feeds), burping, diapering, and settling baby back to sleep. I also handle light baby-related tasks like bottle washing, restocking diapers and wipes, or keeping a simple log of baby’s feeds and sleep. My presence is meant to bring peace of mind and more restorative sleep for you. I may catch a quick cat nap while baby is sleeping if baby allows.

You can! Gentle, holistic sleep coaching is available as an add-on to any overnight care package. Whether you're preparing for long-term healthy sleep habits or navigating a specific challenge (like early wakings or nap transitions), I offer a calm, responsive approach that respects your baby’s needs and your parenting style.

I am a certified postpartum doula and holistic sleep coach, with specialized training in newborn care, infant sleep, lactation support, and maternal wellness. My background also includes CPR certification for infants and adults, and I continuously invest in education to stay current on safe sleep practices, feeding trends, and gentle parenting philosophies.

Yes! I have extensive experience supporting families with twins. I understand the unique dynamics and logistics that come with multiples, and I’m confident in managing feeds, soothing techniques, and sleep for more than one baby—while ensuring you’re supported, too.

Not at all! I love animals and am totally comfortable in pet-friendly homes. That said, I do focus solely on newborn and postpartum care, so pet care (like walking or feeding) should be handled by the family or a pet sitter.

If you’re breastfeeding, I’ll bring your baby to you when it’s time to feed and help with positioning or latch if needed. After the feed, I’ll take over so you can go right back to sleep—I’ll burp, change, and settle baby back down. I’m also happy to help you navigate pumping or mixed feeding if that’s part of your journey.

Absolutely! I’ve tested and seen hundreds of baby products in action. I love helping parents find practical, quality items that work for your unique needs—whether that’s swaddles, bottles, sleep tools, or postpartum recovery essentials. I also provide registry concierge services, which you can book HERE

Yes, I offer both virtual and private in-person classes covering breastfeeding basics, bottle feeding, newborn care, sleep foundations, and more. These sessions are relaxed, informative, and personalized to your family’s goals.

Your baby’s health and safety are always my top priority. If your little one has a mild illness like a runny nose or teething discomfort, I can still provide care. However, if your baby has a fever or a contagious illness, we’ll need to pause and reschedule your overnight support until they’re feeling better. If someone else in the home is sick, please let me know right away so we can decide together if it’s safe for me to come. Likewise, if I am ever ill or exposed to something contagious, I won’t come into your home and will notify you as soon as possible. Open communication ensures that everyone stays healthy and cared for.

Because I reserve your dates exclusively for your family, payments made in full and/or retainer fee, and on call fees are non-refundable. However, if I ever need to cancel due to illness or a family emergency, your care will always be rescheduled at the earliest convenience so you receive the full value of your package. Packages must be used within a given period of time after baby's due date or original start of service date. For example the 36 night package must be used within 15 weeks of intended start date or baby's due date.

If your family needs to cancel, I ask for at least 24 hours’ notice whenever possible. Illness-related cancellations are handled with flexibility, and we’ll pause and resume care once your baby and household are well. For non-illness cancellations, we’ll work together to find the best way to reschedule within your package timeframe.

My goal is to keep things simple, supportive, and fair while ensuring your family feels cared for and prioritized.
