Postpartum Doula based in Nashville, TN. The HEROIC support your family deserves.

12/31/2025

2025 has been one of the best (yet most difficult) years since starting my business. I worked with seven wonderful clients throughout the year. Spent an incredibly sweet period with one family for an extended timeframe (ten months). Became Carrot-approved so future clients can utilize their company’s benefits to cover postpartum services. Was interviewed by Nashville Voyager about my business. Spoke with multiple local mental health organizations about utilizing their services for future clients who may be struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety. Made many connections with other providers in a variety of fields with overlapping client needs.

My mother had a terrifying health scare over the summer that forced me to pull back dramatically on the amount of time I could spend with clients. She has stabilized for the moment, but end-stage Alzheimer’s and predictability don’t work well together. I am continuing to limit my calendar for spring 2026 due to her health needs/upcoming surgeries, and hope to be able to take more clients on as summer gets closer. I will also be starting yoga teacher training in January, and am looking forward to eventually offering prenatal/postpartum yoga in addition to postpartum care.

I had the great fortune of being interviewed by Nashville Voyager magazine recently about being a postpartum doula. If you’d like to learn more about my “why” and how I made the transition from corporate life to helping families with their newborns, please check out the link in my bio!

What a year 2024 has been!!!!

I know I’ve barely posted here but for good reason. In my third year of being a postpartum doula, I’ve almost doubled the number of families I worked with between private and agency clients. 20 (yes, 20!) families have trusted me with helping them adjust to life with a newborn this year. A number I could’ve never imagined serving when I first started out almost three years ago🥹

I want to thank all of the wonderful families who’ve welcomed me into their homes, referred me to their expecting friends, and trusted me with their care. Being able to see the difference I can make in a family’s day at the end of each postpartum shift fills my cup to the brim.

I’ve had the incredible fortune to work with 42 families since I became a doula, and my life has changed so much for the better because of them💗💗💗

In 2023, I had the incredible fortune to work with eleven families as their postpartum doula💗 I won over some anxious pups, shared my lap with cats and babies during bottle feeds, did so many contact and carrier naps, and comforted anxious new (and experienced) parents. I also attended first birthday parties for a few clients from 2022 and it was so unbelievably humbling hearing the impact my care had on them. Extended family members and friends I met for the first time knew exactly who I was as soon as I said my name 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I also officially launched my personal doula business this year, after keeping it low-key since it started in early 2022. A name change, so many forms filled out, and so many decisions large and small were made. Thanks to my incredible in-house marketing strategist/web designer/hype man/husband for creating all the things that go along with what truly fits my personality.

I’m filled with so much gratitude at the beauty of it all. The trust parents place in me. The wonder in their newborns’ eyes. The smiles of recognition and relief all around.

I can’t wait to do this even more in 2024.

This isn’t the most flattering photo, but being newly postpartum, I didn’t care. My son Hugo cluster-fed for the first six weeks of his life. That means I slept in 30-90 minute increments a few times per day, and I was leaking milk constantly, hence the burp cloth sticking out of my nursing tank. When we went to my son’s one month checkup, he’d gained four pounds from eating so much. The pediatrician said “keep doing what you’re doing!” and I immediately broke down in tears. I knew there had to be a better way, and this couldn’t be normal.

Now that I can look back four years later, I know my son exhibited many red flags in regard to tongue ties. I didn’t know any better at the time though, and if I’d had a village of support, this could’ve been addressed earlier and made my whole postpartum experience completely different. Had I worked with another person (like a postpartum doula) who could tell me what a normal feed looks and sounds like, I could’ve been referred to a lactation consultant, a tongue tie specialist, and so on.

The question I get most after “what is a postpartum doula” is “where do you go?”

My standard service range is shown here and much thought and consideration was put into it. Traffic in Nashville has increased dramatically, and after traveling all over for almost two years working with postpartum clients, this is the territory I can predictably cover on a daily basis for multiple clients.

I also see clients outside of this range (the orange areas are my extended service range). If you are in an area outside of this map, please reach out so we can discuss further.

Booking is dependent upon where my other clients are located and how many shifts are anticipated/needed once baby arrives. Length of shifts are taken into consideration, as I offer shifts ranging from 4 hours to 6 hours depending on my client’s needs. There is an additional hourly fee for any addresses in my extended service range and that is discussed up front during my initial consult.

If you’re interested in postpartum services and would like to discuss further, please email me at the link in my bio!
