I've been doing postpartum work for 18 years now, and love what I do. I'm very passionate about supporting women & their families, and do what I can to ease the transition for new parents.
I started my career in Chicago, worked briefly in southwest Maine, and have been practicing as a doula in northwest Arkansas since 2018. The landscape is different, but families' support needs are still largely the same.
I would love to meet you and talk about how we can work together to make your birth & postpartum experience the absolute best it can be!

This combination package includes a mix of daytime & overnight shifts to maximize the impact on your postpartum experience. Daytime care is helpful for parent questions, breastfeeding guidance, and getting things done around the house. Overnight care is more focused on getting both parents some restorative sleep, so I am mainly in charge of Baby, and can bring them to you if needed, but handling all other care needs as much as possible.

If you prefer, you may also choose to keep the same schedule each week. You may not know exactly what kind of schedule you may need, and that’s OK! You are welcome to select the hours you like here at...
