One of our favorite newborn reflexes: the palmar grasp 💕 It’s such a sweet one! It’s a reminder that we have an innate need for connection- as babies and even as adults.

This dad-to-be is going into the birth of his daughter feeling confident and empowered!! He’s practiced paced bottle feeds, diapering, the 5S’s to soothe a fussy baby, baby wearing, swaddling, etc. He’s learned all about breastfeeding, pumping, postpartum hormones and emotions and will be the most supportive partner 💜

I LOVE teaching Baby Basics classes to moms AND dads so they both feel (at least a bit more 😅) ready for baby!! These two were a beautiful team and it was my honor to spend the morning with them!

If you’re expecting reach out so we can get your private, in-home class booked!!

Went for a walk with these two under 2 today while their mom caught a nap and a shower! When we got home mom had quality time with each babe while I hung out with the other one. When both girls went down for a nap mama and I had time to connect and chat about anything and everything- sleep, breastfeeding, mom guilt, family dynamics, self care.

I’m so thankful this mama trusts me to support her and her family during this delicate yet transformative, beautiful and powerful time. I loved every minute of my day with these 3 🥰

Lactation balls are a staple postpartum snack- perfect for grab and go while pumping or nursing babe!

We make them a bit differently based on each mama’s preferences and what ingredients she has in the home. This new mama loves all the ads ins: chia, h**p hearts, flax, brewers yeast, bee pollen, protein powder, cinnamon, turmeric. And of course a base of oats and peanut butter. But the secret ingredient in these was butterscotch morsels because this mama is a huge butterscotch fan! Snacks can be healthy AND delicious 💜

It takes time to learn your new little human and yourself as a mother. It’s a process. You’re a team. You’re doing a really good job together ❤️

Postpartum doulas do this!

☀️ we snuggle your babe so you can rest
☀️ we make healthy snacks so you can nourish your body while nourishing your baby 🤱🏻
☀️ we walk your dog so you can prioritize rest and recovery
☀️ we set up a little diaper change station downstairs so you don’t have to go up and down
☀️ we show you how to pace feed your baby and share our knowledge about why this is important
☀️ we ask how you are feeling (emotionally and physically) and we listen
☀️ we bring you flowers because you deserve them- because you are worthy of love, support and beautiful things all days but especially postpartum days 💜

I love what I do!!! I’d love to meet you if you’re expecting! 🤰

Last day together with this amazing first time mama and her ADORABLE babe 💙! We’ve worked together for 8 weeks navigating sleep, feeding, attachment, and self-care.

Watching parents develop confidence in their ability to care for their baby (and themselves!) is the most amazing part of my job. I will forever be grateful for the opportunity to empower and support them during such a transformative, beautiful, vulnerable time ❤️

Who we are.

Hannah Murfet and Ashley Demmitt are sisters (in law) and "social workers-turned-doulas" who joined forces to support and empower women and families as they transform through the birth and postpartum experience. We believe that encouragement, coaching, and education can make the difference between an overwhelming experience and a fulfilling one. We will hold space for you to experience just that.

We believe in providing evidence-based care. Years of research shows the following benefits of having a 3rd party support person during labor:

-Fewer interventions (Pitocin, cesarean, etc.) -Increased relaxation and reduced anxiety -Increased movement/efficiency during labor -Better APGAR scores for baby -Increased comfort and reassurance -Greater satisfaction with the birth experience (less trauma, stress) -Increased confidence
