Lack of sleep is a big concern for all new parents and this can cause a lot of anxiety regarding the daunting nighttime hours. Whether it is your first baby or fifth, everyone needs sleep to feel their best and be the best version of themselves during the day!

Your overnight doula will help you to get quality rest with the peace of mind that your little one is being cared for by an expert. Whether you are breast or bottle feeding, your doula will work with you to maximize your sleep. While you sleep, your doula will ensure that you are set up for success for the next day (e.g. laundry, dishes, cleaning/sterilizing bottle/pump parts, etc.). Your doula will also help you to process how the day went and answer any questions that came up or concerns you are having.

A typical shift for overnight support is 9pm-7am (10 hours), but 8 and 12 hour shifts are also available depending on your needs!

Bringing home a new baby is a scary experience for any new parent, but if your baby has been in the NICU, it can add an extra layer of anxiety when you finally get to bring them home.

As a former NICU RN, I have experience with caring for newborns with a variety of conditions both in the NICU and at home after discharge.

While I cannot perform any care that you are not responsible for performing on your own for your baby, I can help to provide education, support, and reassurance as well as give you a much needed break!

As each case is very unique, please schedule a consultation to discuss your family’s situation.
