Rama, Certified Postpartum Doula & Safe Sleep Expert

With over 12 years of experience in childcare—including the past six years focused specifically on newborn care—I bring both professional expertise and a deep personal understanding to the families I support. As a proud mother of three (two boys and one girl), my own parenting journey has given me invaluable insights that I’m passionate about sharing with others navigating the early days of parenthood.

As a postpartum doula, I provide hands-on support to families, offering guidance with feeding, closely monitoring newborn intake to ensure proper nutrition, and helping create a calm, nurturing environment. I understand firsthand how overwhelming those first few weeks can be, and I’m here to make that transition smoother, more supported, and less stressful.

I truly love being a doula because I get to help both new babies and new moms thrive. It’s incredibly rewarding to witness the strength and growth of families as they settle into life with their newest little one. I’m here to offer not only practical support, but also reassurance, encouragement, and a listening ear during this important time.

Outside of my work, I love cooking, spending quality time with my children, and staying active in my community. These passions keep me grounded and bring balance to my life, and I believe they also enrich the care I offer to the families I serve.

I’m known for being reliable, quick to adapt, and deeply committed to supporting each family with compassion and care. My goal is always to help you feel confident, capable, and cared for as you welcome your new baby into the world.
