LOL! All joking aside, doing overnights with a family as soon as baby arrives, setting them up for success and giving them the support to recover from labour and delivery, is one of my favourite things! We work on feeding, soothing, bathing, basic baby care, and SLEEP! I find that having support in those first few days makes a huge difference in new parents' confidence, mental and physical health. I feel so honoured to be in that space with my families. ❤️

What did you have for your baby that you thought was a lifesaver or what you couldn't live without? For me, it was my baby swing!

Third birth, but first with a Doula! This was such a beautiful, calm, home birth.

I have been very busy with postpartum work lately and there is something we need to talk about.
The last thing either of us need is for you to be worrying about what I think about the state of your home, how much screen time your toddler gets, how you feed your baby, etc....
I am there to support YOU. I can absolutely support you with any of those things if they are your priority, but I am there for whatever you need in that moment- even if it's just a hug and a hot cup of tea.
I am heartbroken when I come to support a family who really needs it and on top of everything they're going through, they start apologizing for how messy the house is or that they are letting their toddler have chicken nuggets for lunch... again. I can promise you, I don't care.
I am looking for ways to make your day brighter and your life easier. I am looking to lift you up and give you some love. I am looking to take care of that baby AND toddler so that you can practice some self-care. I am looking to show you some tricks to make life a little easier. I am there to help you be the amazing parent that you are.
There is zero judgment, ever.

As amazing and wonderful as having children is... some days are hard. Some stages are hard, and that's okay. You are not less of a parent for having bad days!

Feel free to reach out if you need support, there are a lot of resources in our city (some free!) and I can help you find what you need.

I used to be unsure of what to think about being called "calm" or told I "make everything calm". I thought that of everything I did, if that's the most memorable, then I clearly wasn't doing enough. I have now realized what a huge compliment it is and I wear "calm" with pride. If you are in labour and feeling calm rather than stressed or scared... that's pretty freaking awesome!

From my client:
"We are very happy we purchased the labour and post-partum package from Danielle. Her easygoing and relaxed demeanour, thoughtfulness in regards to our needs, and knowledge about labour and newborns helped keep the energy calm, positive and relaxed for me. This extended into the overnight help we received from her the first week our baby boy came home. The testimonials on her website all held true. I would highly recommend Danielle if you are wanting extra support for this momentous life occasion!" K&P

Another thing I love about my job? I meet some pretty incredible people, and this gorgeous mama is one of those people. I had the honour of being by her side while she brought this beautiful baby into the world just a few weeks ago. Her strength, courage, and integrity literally took my breath away, and I am SO proud of her!
