Barbara, Metro DC Postpartum Doula

Barbara, Certified Breastfeeding Counselor, & Sleep Consultant

After working as a infant teacher and nanny for over 20 years then becoming a grandmother myself, I knew that I wanted to continue working with families but just in a different capacity.

So in 2016 is when I started my journey as a doula. Since then I had invested and gain much knowledge working with so many different families. It gave me so much joy to know that I was able to help in so ways beyond my expectations.

I love spending time with my family, traveling to different countries, reading and doing research to improve my insight on baby related subjects, listening to some smooth jazz, or watching Netflix. Love to explore new restaurants.
