my support

My goal is to help you adapt to life with a newborn with confidence, to advocate for you and your family, and to have a positive impact on your birth and post-birth experience.

As a certified Doula, a Newborn Care Specialist, and a Sleep Consultant, I can help you navigate all the twists and turns of having your baby and life with a newborn.

My Services

I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic. When I was little I loved babies, and as I got older I would babysit every chance I got.

I began my career as a preschool teacher before transitioning to a nanny. For the past 12 years I have had the opportunity to work with many amazing families. Each child still holds a special place in my heart!

A few years ago I became a certified birth and postpartum doula where I have seen firsthand the struggles many parents go through adapting to life with a newborn. This led me to my newest passion as a Newborn Care Specialist (NCS).

I am privileged to have met and built relationships with so many wonderful families. I can’t wait to meet yours!

Are You Getting Enough Sleep?

If not, let's talk.

Are you feeling drained, sleep-deprived, and unable to make sense of your days and nights? Do you want you AND your baby to sleep through the night? I’ll help you develop a personalized sleep plan that works for your family. I’ll give you the encouragement you need to follow through on that plan so you see (and feel!) a big improvement.
