Isabelle, Advanced Certified Postpartum Doula & Lactation Counselor
Bonjour, my name is Isabelle and I am from Paris, France. I’m a certified postpartum doula and newborn care specialist – I love this work and the real difference it makes in people’s lives. I have a strong background in early childhood and child development, and I also ran a daycare for 27 years.
I raised 5 children in this country; it was only my husband and I, no family to help. I wish I had access to a doula at that time! Sometimes it was a lonely road - the lack of sleep etc. That why I'm passionate about my job; it makes a difference in the life of many families. Rain, sun, snow, 1 hour commute? No problem! You need me, I will be there.
I love being a doula because I love helping new parents navigate the first couple of months of their baby’s life, including gentle sleep shaping and breastfeeding support.
