I’m a veteran birthworker who’s passionate about providing fun and relatable postnatal education and support to new families and other postpartum doulas. I provide an array of services, expertise and education for parents to help them make the MOST out of their postpartum journeys.

After the birth of my  first son in 2009, I fell in love with babywearing! It was the most single-most impactful skill that I learned as a new parent. In just a few short weeks of practicing with my baby carriers, I went from drowning in the waves of new motherhood to finally being able to catch my breath and feel like myself again. Knowing how to use baby carriers safely and comfortably gave me back the freedom I needed to get out of the house, connect with my community, and finally find the joy in raising my baby.

In 2010, I deepened my formal babywearing education and founded Caribou Baby and Wild Was Mama, Brooklyn’s beloved natural baby and maternity retail stores and class spaces. It was in this space that helped thousands of families gain the skills and confidence they needed to follow their intuition and care for themselves and their families with ease. As a longtime babywearing business owner, I’ve trained countless of my own staff in professional babywearing education, and continue to teach and mentor doulas and birthworkers in the postpartum space.

After selling my stores in 2018, I dove into one-on-one postpartum support full time. I now serve expecting and new families virtually and in-person across the five boroughs! I have an array of expertise in the postpartum space, and my services include postpartum doula work, babywearing classes and consultations, gentle sleep coaching, lactation counseling,  cloth diapering and elimination communication education, support group facilitation, doula mentorship and continuing education for doulas.
