We provide postpartum emotional support, practical guidance, and valuable resources for a smooth transition into motherhood.
Hi, I'm Andrea
I’m Andrea, a certified postpartum doula and lactation counselor with over 20 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and new families. My love for babies started early—at just 14 years old—when I helped care for my youngest sister. That experience sparked a lifelong passion for nurturing others, one that’s deeply rooted in my Spanish-Italian heritage and my natural desire to support and care for growing families.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
We Treat Every Client Like Family
Andrea was amazing! As new parents, we were so anxious about taking care of a newborn. Due to the pandemic, neither of our parents were able to come and help us. I did a lot of research online and I interviewed several doulas. I am glad I found Andrea. She helped us for the first two months! My baby was born one month early. Andrea tried her best to come as soon as possible. She is really good at taking care of newborns. She also helped me with breastfeeding and light housework. I really appreciated her support and I highly recommend Andrea to any new parents who need an extra pair of hands.
DW
We were referred to Andrea by another doula, and I am so glad that she did! I wanted to have confinement meals prepared and newborn help. Andrea did just that! She was organized and proactive in researching the type of meals to prepare. She always made sure I was well nourished and well rested during her time with us. Andrea also helped me with breastfeeding and newborn care. I am so glad she was there supporting me and my baby during the fourth trimester.
GK
Andrea for postpartum support- The best decision! Having a first baby during a pandemic brought with it many unknowns, but one of the best decisions we made was connecting with a postpartum doula to support us in our transition to parenthood. Andrea has been key to a relaxed and wonderful first few weeks with our daughter, filled with learning, rest and recovery. She has been our personal coach and mentor in all things newborn-related, especially breastfeeding and baby care. With her guidance and wealth of experience and knowledge we now have the confidence and skills to be successful parents. We loved having Andrea with us during this special time as a new family. Even our puppy has welcomed Andrea as part of our family. If we ever have a second baby, we wouldn’t hesitate to have Andrea help us again, she has been amazing, and we cannot recommend her enough!!!
