My goal is to help you adapt to life with a newborn with confidence, to advocate for you and your family, and to have a positive impact on your birth and post-birth experience.
As a certified Doula, a Newborn Care Specialist, and a Sleep Consultant, I can help you navigate all the twists and turns of having your baby and life with a newborn.
I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic. When I was little I loved babies, and as I got older I would babysit every chance I got.
I began my career as a preschool teacher before transitioning to a nanny. For the past 12 years I have had the opportunity to work with many amazing families. Each child still holds a special place in my heart!
A few years ago I became a certified birth and postpartum doula where I have seen firsthand the struggles many parents go through adapting to life with a newborn. This led me to my newest passion as a Newborn Care Specialist (NCS).
I am privileged to have met and built relationships with so many wonderful families. I can’t wait to meet yours!
Are you feeling drained, sleep-deprived, and unable to make sense of your days and nights? Do you want you AND your baby to sleep through the night? I’ll help you develop a personalized sleep plan that works for your family. I’ll give you the encouragement you need to follow through on that plan so you see (and feel!) a big improvement.

My newborn loved her and she had a wealth of knowledge about any baby related question I asked her (as a first time parent I had many). Should we have another child we will definitely hire Laura again.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura is an absolute angel, and we couldn’t have made it through those early days without her. She’s incredibly experienced and gave me a super practical shopping list before the baby arrived, so I only bought what we really needed—no wasted money on useless stuff. Even before the birth, Laura was constantly checking in on me, offering advice on everything from what to eat and drink to exercises that would help make labor easier. None of this was really her job, but she was always willing to go above and beyond to help. When we got home from the hospital, totally exhausted and unsure of what to do, Laura was right there, stepping in to take care of the baby so we could get some much-needed rest. Every night, she took care of our little one with so much love and attention, and in the morning, she’d fill us in on everything, giving us tips on how to handle different situations. We were so thankful to have her—she really saved us from making a lot of rookie mistakes. Laura’s personality is just so warm and reassuring. As first-time parents, we were pretty anxious, but she made everything feel so much easier. And you can tell she genuinely loves babies—our little one was always so happy to see her. We were so sad when her time with us ended, and we even tried to get her to come back later, but she was already fully booked. If you’re expecting, I can’t recommend Laura enough—make sure you book her early!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura is an amazing newborn care specialist! We hired her for 8 weeks to help us with our newborn baby and she did a great job taking care of our son. Our baby can be very fussy at times but she knew how to calm him down and make him happy. What can I say? She really is Mary Poppins! She’s also very professional, always punctual, and very friendly and accommodating. Laura goes above and beyond to make baby and parents happy. The peace of mind she provides is so worth it. Highly recommend.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing experience to work with Laura. She was so thoughtful with our baby and truly has such a great spirit overall. From the moment our baby met her, he was so calm and she showed him with love and care how to enjoy the experience of sleep. She checked in constantly and gave us so many thoughtful tips and advice throughout the process. Her warmth and expertise are truly top notch and our nanny was so impressed with her that she recommended Laura to another family. Within 3 nights, our son discovered how to sleep through the night and to do so without trauma or stress. Laura is a true angel and we'll be utilizing her services for all of our babies to come. RUN don't walk to this lovely lady!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We found Laura a few months before our baby boy was born. As new parents, we knew that we wanted professional help right away and it was totally worth it! Laura provided Night Services for the 1st month. It was such a relief to know someone was watching our baby while we slept. She accommodated all of our preferences and truly tailored our routine based on our baby’s developing habits. He is now 2 months old and sleeps 6 hours straight any given day. He is starting to sleep 7-8 hours some nights. I truly believe it’s because of the wonderful work Laura did with us. We always felt comfortable around her and will always hold a special place in our hearts.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Laura to help sleep train our baby. I was someone who was nervous and skeptical about the process because I thought I had baby who just wouldn’t sleep through the night or nap without me holding her. When my baby turned 4 months old, I accepted that a lack of sleep and a sore back from holding my baby and feeding my baby to sleep nonstop was my new reality. We hired Laura and she helped us in so many ways. Whenever I doubted whether or not I was doing the wrong thing, she was my cheerleader and supporter night and day. I was also nervous to reach out for help because there are so many professionals who mom guilt, and I did not want to feel bad because my baby did not have the best sleep habits. But Laura was so kind and she helped us slowly wean our baby from her habits and start her on healthy independent habits that worked for all of us. She did it all in such a gentle way and helped us sleep train and find a process that worked for us. Besides the general off-day from gas, teething, etc., our baby is sleeping through the night and our family is all sleeping soundly. Thank you so much Laura! You’re our hero!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m convinced she’s Mary Poppins. Laura is so kind and knowledgeable, I learn from her everyday. Laura was able to sleep train my by baby 3 1/2 months, helped with her regression, teething, feeding, and so much more. Definitely a keeper!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura was excellent! We trusted her completely with our 8 week old and was with her for over 2 months. Our little one is now sleeping through the night (12hrs!) thanks to her tips and advise and we got the much needed sleep we had lost. She’s caring, an advocate for safe sleep, very professional, and incredibly supportive! She was a lifesaver!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When the time came to give birth to my beautiful baby, I was going through a lot of emotions, excitement but I also had a lot of anxiety, having Laura as my doula made the process easier, she took care of me through the entire process, she helped me with pain management, prepared a special bath for me and gave me a massage to help me relax, she walk me through a couple of exercises to release pressure to manage pain and tension, to feel better and I did I was able to be as relax as I could and cope with the pain of contractions go through the process very organically, until it was time to go to the Hospital and give birth. Laura made sure to keep me as comfortable as possible through the whole birth process. Laura never left my side she was so positive, clam and reassuring and very caring. Laura was very attentive to all my needs and it was easy to connect with her on an intimate level, she became my sister in birth; she was a very fundamental part to have a beautiful birth experience. The day I gave birth to my daughter was one of the most important moments of my life , to see the miracle of life happening right before my eyes was beautiful and touching . I was surrounded by the most important people in my life , my husband, my mom and my sister and of course my wonderful doula Laura!!. Love and positive energy was all over that room!! I had an amazing birth experience and still reminisce about it. The care that I received throughout my pregnancy was great, but the day I gave birth and postpartum I felt like a celebrity haha! Laura was so attentive and made sure I was looked after. She was very protective of my healing process, I had natural birth and I did tear a bit I was in pain and sore for the first couple of days after giving birth. She made sure I ate well , rested as much as I could, coach me through breastfeeding and created a sleeping schedule for my new born. By two months my daughter was sleeping through the night!! As a first time mom, Laura has been of great help to me she has guided me through this new experience of motherhood. She is very accessible through call and text and responds really quickly. She has answered every question or concerns I had regarding the care of my new born. Laura brings such warmth, and maternal energy to the whole process. I feel safe , comfortable and trusting of Laura my baby does too and she loves her. I totally recommend Laura as a birth and postpartum Doula, she is a great choice for any family, and I can’t say this enough!! .
