Postpartum Doula & Sleep Consulting-
Serving Families In-Home & Virtually
Gentle, personalized support to help your family rest, recover,
and feel confident through every stage of early parenthood.
Whether you're recovering after birth, navigating feeding challenges, or longing for more restful sleep, I'm here to guide and reassure you - in your home or virtually. My postpartum doula and sleep consulting services support families throughout Western Connecticut, New York, and across the U.S., so you can feel calm, confident, and cared for as you move through each season of early parenthood.
Postpartum Recovery Support
Few periods in life are as intense as the transition into motherhood. Your baby is your first thought - they need to be comforted, soothed, and acclimated to the world around them. It can be easy to forget that you, too, need time and space to acclimate to your new body, world, and life.
The physical and emotional care needed during this time can also be complicated by more mundane needs. Your laundry needs to be done, the family needs to eat, and showers eventually become necessary. None of these are as important as caring for yourself and your baby, but it can be easy to feel pressured to get back into the swing of daily life.

it means me too"

Virtual 1:1 Postpartum Doula Support
Personalized, one-on-one guidance-wherever you are
Parenthood is a lot. And not every family needs, or wants, in-person support. Maybe you already have people helping you with physical tasks, but what you really need is someone to help you make sense of everything else.
Whether you're recovering from birth, struggling with sleep, or unsure if you're "doing it right," you're not alone. And you shouldn't have to figure it all out at 2 am with Google (especially when every article says something different and sends you down a rabbit hole that leaves you more confused and second-guessing everything).
That's why I offer virtual postpartum support, providing you with real answers, calm guidance, and expert help tailored to your family.
It's one-on-one postpartum support you can access from anywhere, right when you need it -even in your PJs, curled up in your favorite chair, sipping cold coffee or one that has been reheated for the third time.
Why Parents Choose Virtual Support
- It's flexible and easy, and doesn't require leaving the house. No need to get dressed, tidy up, or pack a diaper bag. Just hop on from your couch, bed, or rocking chair and get the support you need-right where you are, whenever you're ready.
- You get real-time answers from someone who gets it. No more second-guessing every decision or spending hours on conflicting advice from the internet. I'll help you sort through the noise and make confident choices for your baby and your family.
- It's personalized, hands-on support that fits your life. Every session is one-on-one and focused on what matters most to you. Whether it's babywearing, feeding, sleep routines, or soothing techniques, I'll walk you through it step by step so that you feel confident, not just informed.
- It's more affordable than in-person care. You get expert, compassionate support at a lower cost-without sacrificing quality or connection.
- It grows with you. My virtual support doesn't end after the newborn stage. I'm here for the whole journey- whether you're figuring out feeding, adjusting to naps and routines, starting solids, managing toddler transitions, or just navigating the everyday changes that come with each new phase.
- It builds your confidence, not just your to-do list. You'll leave each session feeling clearer, calmer, and more supported-with real strategies you can use right away.

Baby + Child Sleep Support
Gentle, Personalized Help for Ages 4 Months - 5 Years
Struggling With Your Child's Sleep? You’re Not Alone.
If your child's sleep feels unpredictable, exhausting, or like nothing is working anymore, I'm here to help. Whether you're navigating bedtime battles, night waking, early rising, or tricky nap transitions. I'll work with you to create a realistic, personalized plan that feels right for your child and for you.
Common Sleep Challenges I Support:
- Frequent night waking and early morning wake-ups
- Short naps and nap transitions
- Bedtime battles, resistance, or long routines
- Needing to lie with your child or stay in the room until they fall asleep
- Feeding, rocking, or holding to sleep (including breast, bottle, or pacifier use)
- Sleep regressions, travel, sickness, or schedule disruptions
- Separation anxiety and bedsharing (including support transitioning out)
My approach is gentle,
responsive and family-centered.
I don’t believe in rigid schedules or leaving your child to “cry it out” alone. Instead, I use sleep teaching—a gradual, supportive way to help your little one build independent sleep skills while still feeling safe, loved, and connected.
With My Support, You Can Expect:
- Better rest for your child now
- Healthier sleep habits for the long run
- More peace, energy, and connection for your whole family
You don't have to choose between connection and better sleep. With the right guidance, you can have both.
What Makes This Different From Just Reading About Baby/Toddler Sleep Online?
You can find endless sleep tips online — but most of it is general advice, not made for your baby. That’s where real support makes the difference.
When we work together, I create a plan tailored to your child’s unique sleep challenges and your family’s values. More than that, you get one-on-one guidance and daily coaching as you make changes — so you're never left wondering what to do next.
Instead of second-guessing every nap or bedtime, you’ll feel clear, confident, and supported through every step of the process.

Kristin has been a tremendous blessing to us.
“Kristin began helping my wife and me shortly after we returned home with our daughter from the hospital NICU. She was immediately a calming and stabilizing presence in our home and helped us during very challenging times, in just the way a loving family member would. We always felt completely comfortable and at ease around her. My wife and baby faced a range of medical situations and Kristin was always ready to answer our questions with insight and practical wisdom. Her advice with difficult lactation issues was truly first-rate; offering more insightful and effective help than any lactation consultant and doctor we visited. Kristin is effective with household matters, a source of intelligent and sound advice, and has a warm, gentle spirit. She has been a tremendous blessing to us and we can not recommend her enough."
