Embracing your unique family~

I know that each family has their own individual needs and I enjoy the challenge of molding my support to meet each parents’ needs. My passions are supporting solo parents, LGBTQ+ parents, and parents experiencing perinatal emotions.What does my postpartum support look like?

  • emotional support for those overwhelming feelings      
  • nonjudgemental practical support with evidence based information.                              
  • CLC support with body feeding and/or bottle-feeding
  • a stretch of restorative sleep/time for a peaceful shower                
  • build healthy sleep foundation, interpret infant cues                                                 
  • resources for your individual family needs                              
  • food preparation for optimal nutrition and healing    
  • organizing/cleaning baby laundry, bottles, and pump parts

Contact me and let’s meet and talk about postpartum support! Don’t worry if you are not sure of what you need. I will describe options for you after we chat. Do you have ANY questions? It’s going to be okay!  ~ Jacquie

We worked with Jacquie as a post-partum doula after the birth of our first child, and I could not be more grateful for her kindness and patience. Though we didn’t spend a ton of time with her, her easy presence was immediately comfortable, and it never felt strange to have her in our home. Jacquie was able to help us problem-solve through our most difficult first few weeks challenges, particularly around breastfeeding. She never judged our decisions, and tailored her advice to what she sensed we were comfortable with, without pushing. Every time I have a friend in another state get pregnant, I feel sad that I cannot recommend Jacquie to them–she is truly a gem. ~Sarah, 2018

Wesley and I want to thank you again for all of your support and guidance during the first month Wes was born. You truly have a gift and I feel so lucky that you were there at such an emotional time. I am so excited for all of the new parents that you will impact. ~Wesley’s Mom, October 2015
