What areas do you serve? 

I am based in Brooklyn, New York, serving all 5 boroughs and the entire tri-state area. If you think you may be located too far, still reach out! 

How long will you be able to support me as my postpartum doula? 

I’ll always be here as a source of support and encouragement for you and your little one(s)! However, I currently serve families at home during the newborn period of birth to 3 months. It is a pivotal time for establishing systems and routines in the home. 

When should I secure your services? 

You’re welcome to reach out as soon as you find out you’re expecting! I am also happy to hear from parents who have already come home with their little one(s)

I need more than 2 installments for payment, what options do I have?

I’m a single parent, same sex couple, or another “non-traditional” family, can I have postpartum doula support? 

I’m happy to arrange a payment plan, let’s discuss and see what works best for you all

For overnight services, will you sleep? 

I don’t have a separate room for you to sleep in, is that okay?

I’m not sure how long I’ll need overnight support. Is that okay? 

Intermittently, yes, while the baby sleeps. I will be sure to be awake and feed, change, and burp the baby on whatever schedule is agreed upon/as needed. 

What if I want to breastfeed? 

Yes, a comfortable couch with a blanket and pillow works just fine, as long as there is somewhere nearby for the baby to safely sleep. 

Yes! I have a minimum of 7 hrs, at least 1x a week for 4 weeks. We can start out with that, and add more doula shifts as needed. 

What if I want to formula feed? 

Yes! The only requirement for hiring me as postpartum doula support is having an infant.

That’s wonderful! I’d be happy to support you on your breastfeeding journey. We can arrange for you to pump throughout the night, and I can grab the milk pumped throughout the night, or in the morning. I can also bring the baby to you for feeding if you’d like to nurse while I’m with you all. 

Awesome! Prior to birth, we can discuss which formula options would be best for your family. We can also customize a way to prepare bottles, etc for the baby while I am with you. I will also take care of the baby’s dishes (bottles, etc.).
