my support

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.

My Services

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 Getting Enough Sleep?

If not, let's talk.

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.

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!

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!! . She’s been perfect for me and baby E. and a great blessing to our family. ❤️❤️

We were blown away by her incredible service, when I was expecting my second baby, her professionalism and kindness made us feel very comfortable in our special journey on every step of the way. Laura has showed us with love and patience how to train our son to sleep all night and potty trained him. We had a great experience. We personally recommend her. She is the best doula ever 😊 thank you dear!

Laura was amazing after I had my baby Matt. She helped me stay calm when I was stressed and helped me so much around the house so i could rest. She assisted with bath time, guided me with feedings and provided a sleep training schedule. She's very knowledgeable! I highly reccomend her!
