Chelsea was our postpartum doula for our firstborn child. We met her ahead of time, and her first official shift was our first night home from the hospital. Chelsea was punctual (and even brought me treats), knowledgeable (she taught us new ways to get our fussy baby to pass gas), and helped us get some well-needed sleep during the early days. She was fantastic at soothing our baby, knowing when to bring her for feeding vs when to work on other ways of soothing. She would bring me water or snacks to my bedside when I was feeding so I never needed to get out of bed. She would also help with baby laundry, wash bottles + pump parts, and never left any mess. 

 

It's such an important thing to trust the person taking care of your newborn, and I am grateful to have had Chelsea in our village taking care of our baby.

We used Chelsea as our postpartum doula and had a wonderful experience! As nervous, first time parents and a baby with nightly witching hour, it was always such a relief when we knew Chelsea would be coming over to rescue us. She took initiative with confidence and was ready to take over upon arrival. She followed my specific and evolving instructions throughout our time together and provided detailed notes each night helping us to progress his sleep habits. We knew he was in great hands and we could rest peacefully any time she was here. We're so thankful for the loving care, sleep and support she provided us and couldn't recommend her more!

Chelsea was a vital part of our postpartum journey and if I could add her to the executive board of directors of this family I would. Not only did she offer us overnight support through the first few months she was a great sounding board for all those first time mom questions. We decided to hire a postpartum doula because we do not have family local to us, it was such a relief in the first few weeks to have 1-2 nights a where we could count on her support. 10/10 highly recommend!

I truly can’t say enough good things about Chelsea. Having her as our postpartum doula was one of the best decisions I made during such a vulnerable time in my life.

 


She was there for me and her calm presence, reassurance, and kindness made such a difference on the hard days. She helped me feel less overwhelmed, more confident, and reminded me that I was doing okay, even when it didn’t feel like it.

 


Chelsea has such a natural way with babies, and watching her care for mine gave me so much peace of mind. 

 


I’m so incredibly grateful for her and the role she played in our postpartum journey. I would recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a great, supportive, and truly amazing postpartum doula.

We had the pleasure of working with Chelsea after the birth of our first child in February 2025. During those crazy early days of having our first newborn, Chelsea was a stable, good humored presence, and we always eagerly awaited her arrival at night time, knowing that she would calm our nerves, calm our baby, and reassure us that all was well, even when we weren't sure what we were doing! She was an absolute delight to spend time with, which is so important when you're inviting someone into your home during those vulnerable first days with a newborn. We loved having her around, and her help throughout the night was always so sweet, peaceful, and truly helped me to get some sleep. We enjoyed getting to know her so much that we have continued to be in contact with her, and if we have number two, you better believe that we will be calling Chelsea to be a part of our care team! Families with little ones will be so blessed to have her in their lives!

Chelsea was an absolute dream to have with us once we got home from the hospital with our firstborn. We were honestly clueless and hadn’t taken any classes prior to her support. She was with us for the first few months of our baby’s life and quickly became an essential part of our family’s well-being.

Not only is she exceptional at newborn care, but she also supported me through the early stages of my breastfeeding journey. She has such a fun yet nurturing personality—any family would be truly lucky to work with her!

I had a wonderful experience with Chelsea as our overnight doula when we brought our newborn home from the hospital. Our baby took to her right away, and I felt very confident going to sleep and having her take care of him overnight. She was very knowledgeable about questions I asked. She was with us for a few weeks. I strongly believe that her help with overnight care helped me avoid postpartum depression due to sleep deprivation. She was always on time and in a cheerful mood. I really can't thank her enough for helping us through that special and exciting time.

We loved working with Chelsea! She did some overnight shifts for us in the first few months after our baby was born. Postpartum can feel so overwhelming and intense but I never worried with Chelsea. Knowing that she was coming to help overnight truly allowed me to take a breath. We went through a pregnancy after loss and experienced a lot of anxiety during and after pregnancy. Chelsea helped put me at ease and gave me a lot of encouragement as a fellow mom. If you're considering a postpartum doula going with Chelsea would be an easy choice to make.

Chelsea was truly a lifesaver for our family during those early weeks with our first baby. From the very beginning, she brought such a calm and reassuring presence into our home which was something we didn’t even realize how much we needed until she was there.

As first time parents, we had what felt like endless questions and concerns, and Chelsea was always patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. She never made us feel silly for asking anything, taught us a lot, and gave us great suggestions for things to get to make our lives easier.

Chelsea has the kindest heart. She cared for our baby with so much love and attentiveness, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in her hands. It’s rare to find someone who is genuinely compassionate and Chelsea is exactly that.

We truly don’t know how we would bhave made it through those early days without her. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Chelsea’s support.

Chelsea was an absolute lifesaver during those early weeks. She brought a calm, reassuring presence into our home and helped us feel more confident as new parents.

From soothing our baby to offering practical tips and emotional support, she always seemed to know exactly what we needed. Because of her, I was able to rest, recover, and actually enjoy time with my newborn. I genuinely think because of her care, I didn’t experience any sort postpartum mood disorders. 

We’re so grateful for her care and would recommend her to any family without hesitation.
