I am here to “mother the mother”

When it comes to the postpartum period, I am the fairy that comes in and leaves your home feeling more calm, clean, and comfortable. I find great joy in organizing and tidying and am often coming up with functional ways to store things.

I will enter your home with an open heart, mind, and set of ears. I’m here to hold space as your process your birth and step into this new chapter of your life.

As an introvert myself, I am a huge advocate for taking alone time and prioritizing self-care. You can’t pour from an empty cup. I aim to show up and take care of the little things so you can rest, recover, and bond with your little one.

“I can't imagine having my beautiful birth experience without Kelsey's support. My labor progressed very quickly at home and we were lucky to have Kelsey come to our apartment and help us transition to the hospital. We were in traffic for over an hour, and I would not have remained calm without Kelsey's guidance and encouragement. She held my hand throughout the car ride, helped find labor progressing positions once I decided to receive an epidural, held my legs while I was pushing, and helped my baby boy latch only one hour after birth. Kelsey also supported us in the early postpartum weeks by making snacks, helping with laundry, tidying around the apartment, and lending an ear and advice during this challenging period. We love Kelsey and highly recommend her as a doula!”

“We felt so comfortable having her care for our baby while we got some much needed sleep. My husband and I would get in bed each time she visited and say "wow she's great, so glad she's here." Kelsey was warm and just so reassuring, even taught us a few things too! She always communicated, took notes on our baby's wake/feed/diaper schedule, and was just such a great presence in our household.”

- Robyn

“Having Kelsey… felt like a ray of sunshine during a really dark time in our lives. I had a traumatic, nearly fatal, complication after having my baby. Kelsey would put me in a better mood all day and the nights she'd be there were such a relief. I always felt safe and confident that my baby was being loved and cared for. Kelsey is just such a doll. She let me vent about what I'd been through and made me feel heard. She was there to care for me just as much as my baby. We are truly grateful for Kelsey and any family will be lucky to have her in their lives.”

- Lucy

“Kelsey saved us during those fragile and special postpartum months, and I don’t know what we would have done without her. She was warm, proactive, and incredibly helpful with caring for the baby, doing work around the house, preparing food, and more. We trusted her immediately and our sensitive baby did too. Kelsey walked in and quickly felt like that member of the family who always knows what to say to be supportive, what to do to help, and when to give you your own space and time. She is also just a lovely and positive force to be around. We’d hire her again in a heartbeat and any family would be lucky to have her support.”
