How I Can Support You

I offer full-spectrum family care — from newborn sleep to birth and postpartum — rooted in gentle guidance, PSI-informed emotional wellness, and attachment-supportive education.

For families navigating short naps, overtired evenings, feeding challenges, anxious thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or simply wanting calmer nights and a steadier rhythm — support begins here.

☁️ Gentle Newborn Sleep Coaching & Care

Personalized newborn care and gentle sleep support that protects connection and mental health — never Cry-It-Out or extinction methods. PSI-trained, attachment-minded coaching to help with short naps, mixed day–night patterns, overtired spirals, and those long, fussy evenings so you feel less worried and more confident.

🌿 Birth Doula Support

Grounded, trauma-aware care for labor and birth — including home births, VBAC journeys, and families who want calm, clear advocacy in the room. Support includes integrative positioning, ambiance design, and continuous emotional and physical comfort so you feel informed, respected, and supported throughout your entire birth experience.

🕊️ Postpartum Recovery & Nourishment

Gentle recovery, feeding support, and sleep rhythms with PSI-informed awareness of perinatal mood and anxiety risks — especially helpful for families feeling overwhelmed, under-rested, emotionally stretched, or unsure how to balance newborn needs with their own healing.

Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or expanding your family, Eden & Embrace offers holistic, PSI-trained and emotionally safe care — from rest to renewal — for every season of early parenthood.

Gentle Newborn Sleep & Postpartum Family Care

The early weeks after birth are tender — your baby is learning how to settle in the world, and you’re adjusting to a brand-new rhythm of life. When you’re navigating short naps, frequent night waking, or simply feeling stretched thin, steady support makes all the difference.

Eden & Embrace brings calm to the fourth trimester through gentle newborn sleep coaching, attachment-informed postpartum care, and holistic family guidance that helps you understand your baby’s cues, soften overwhelm, and create restful rhythms that don’t compromise connection. Services are available virtually and locally across West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C.

Whether you need support with contact naps, night wakings, postpartum recovery, emotional regulation, or simply feeling more confident, our approach weaves sleep education, gentle family coaching, and nourishing postpartum rituals into one continuous care experience — helping your home feel grounded, rested, and connected again.

1 Samuel 1:27–28

For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted my petition.

Why Doula Care & Gentle Sleep Support Matter More Than Ever

  • 🌿 Continuous doula care in pregnancy and birth helps parents feel safer, more informed, and emotionally supported — which reduces fear, protects mental health, and improves overall outcomes.
  • 🕊️ Postpartum doula support gives you a real, PSI-trained professional to turn to during the foggiest weeks. Instead of guessing or scrolling at 3 a.m., you receive grounded guidance for feeding, recovery, emotions, and rest.
  • ☁️ Gentle, attachment-focused sleep coaching protects bonding and emotional well-being while helping everyone get more predictable rest — without harsh methods, sleep training pressure, or one-size-fits-all schedules.
  • 🌸 When doula care and sleep support come together, your whole household is held emotionally and practically. You gain nervous system support, a clearer plan, and evidence-informed tools — helping you feel calmer, more confident, and less alone.

You are not meant to do this alone. The right doula and gentle sleep support don’t replace your instincts — they protect your mental health, your baby's sense of safety, and the experience you carry for years to come.

Common Questions, Answered with Care

What does a gentle newborn sleep coach do?

A gentle newborn sleep coach helps families create calm, connection-based routines that honor baby’s cues — without using Cry-It-Out, Ferber, or extinction methods. I guide parents in establishing realistic rhythms for naps, nighttime, and feeding while protecting trust, attachment, and emotional well-being.

How is a postpartum doula different from a nanny or night nurse?

A postpartum doula nurtures the entire family — not just the baby. My role focuses on your recovery, emotional adjustment, and confidence as a parent. I offer gentle feeding support, newborn care education, rest strategies, and a grounded presence that helps you feel safe, supported, and seen during this tender season.

Do you attend home births or work with hospital births?

Yes. I attend both home and hospital births, but my approach is deeply rooted in calm, physiological, home-like birth support. I collaborate with your chosen care team to create an environment that feels sacred, peaceful, and empowering — whether at home or in a hospital setting.

Can we work together virtually if I’m outside of West Virginia?

Absolutely. I offer virtual newborn sleep coaching, birth preparation, and postpartum consultations across West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C.
