I am currently also training to be a lactation counselor and taking a baby wearing class. I am also trained in bereavement and loss for new parents. Everyone deserves to feel safe during their pregnancy and postpartum journey. As your doula, I am here to help you and your baby have the gentle and loving birth and postpartum experience that you deserve. I am here as a pathway to help show you your own power. You are strong. You are love and you are loved. With my support, you can have the birth and postpartum experience that you desire and you can thrive. Navigating the health care system is really hard and I can be a voice of advocacy for you and an invaluable resource. Your care and comfort measures will be personalized for you. I love the moments when I am working with a family and I see that something clicks for them and they realize how amazing they are! I am here to help hold you in one of the most vulnerable, joyful, difficult, and incredible times of your life. I look forward to meeting you!

I was so lucky to find Jacqueline last minute when I needed her most. My partner was traveling for two days, and it was my first time alone with our newborn for a night. Jacqueline was amazing—she helped me feed and soothe the baby, washed bottles, did laundry, and provided much-needed support. I shared some breastfeeding challenges and she connected me with breastfeeding specialists that same night.

As a first-time mom, I’m usually anxious about others holding my baby, but Jacqueline was so gentle and cautious that I felt completely at ease. I’d highly recommend her to anyone needing postpartum help or encouragement.

P.S. She’s also very pet-friendly and great with dogs!

We worked with Jacqueline for overnight care after our second child was born, and I would highly recommend her! Jacqueline has a lovely, calm demeanor and she was incredibly attentive and observant of our daughter. She was so warm and caring for our whole family, bringing nourishing and delicious food for all of us. Our daughter was a very fussy sleeper for a long stretch (so not the best overnight companion) but Jacqueline was patient and loving with her. Her presence was so appreciated by our whole family as she gave us all the best gifts of rest and nourishment!
