Birth Doulas
By adding a doula to your birth team, you give yourself the gift of continuous support and guidance throughout your pregnancy and birthing journey, and enhance the overall experience for you AND your spouse/family. Birth doula support has been reported to boost morale, increase confidence, enhance partner involvement, decrease unnecessary intervention, improve outcomes, and reduce anxiety/fear and birth trauma — which lends to a more positive and satisfying birth memory and postpartum transition!
BONUS: Doulas and Midwives are the perfect team! While they both have very different roles, they work together wonderfully to encourage a positive experience and improve overall outcomes. See how!
“Birth is about radical, creative, life-affirming change. It is about adaptation on a nearly unbelievable scale.”
Northern Star Doula proudly accepts awards for “Best Doula” and “Family Favorite” in the 2020-2023 Love Awards!

Postpartum + Newborn Care Doulas
Need a few nights of sleep and an extra set of trusted hands while you rest and recover from your birth experience? Interested in an extended period of postpartum support through the first several beautifully challenging weeks of your postpartum experience? We can help!
An overnight postpartum + newborn care doula might be a great addition to your postpartum support system. Similar to a night nanny but with specific training in the nuances of the postpartum period, recovering from the birth process, all while caring for a brand new baby – an overnight postpartum doula supports you and your family through the night time hours when you need it most. New parents receive education and practical household support, all while transitioning into their new role. Our Doulas are experienced in sleep shaping.
Daytime and Overnight Postpartum Support is available, as well as Postpartum Nourishment – Meals & Snacks!
*We provide discreet professional overnight postpartum and newborn care services for high profile families in NJ, DE, MD, PA & NYC.
As a mother of three, this work is very near and dear to my heart.
I believe that supporting families through their birth and postpartum experiences is a meaningful and important task — and a role that I take very seriously. I believe there is a doula out there for everyone… and that everyone that wants one should have one! We have an amazing small team practice… and combined, we have attended 1,500 + births in all settings, and have supported 400 + families through the postpartum and early parenting stages.
