hi, My name is Ashley

As a homeschooling mother of three, I know it takes a village to help raise babies. Not everyone has a village, so that is where I come in! As your postpartum doula, I will be part of your village and support you through this time of transition. I bring a calming, nonjudgmental attitude and offer wisdom that aligns with your specific needs. It is my mission to help you feel supported, physically and emotionally, and confident in your role as a parent.

I feel I have a God-given calling to support families and their new additions. I have worked with newborns for most of my adult life. I started by running a babysitting agency as a teenager, where I trained babysitters and matched them with families needing care. Since high school, I have been involved with babies in many ways, from working as a full-time, live-in nanny to serving in the Ax Church Nursery on Sundays. I have experience with and am comfortable with multiples, preemies, breastfeeding support, and developmental sleep support.

I hold an American Heart Association Basic Life Support certification. This certification covers CPR, AED application, and choking relief for adults, children, and infants.

In an effort to continually improve myself, I am in the process of earning the DONA International Postpartum Doula certification and the DNT Network Newborn Care Specialist certification.

Ashley did an amazing job with getting a night routine established for the twins! She definitely made us feel comfortable at night to allow us to sleep while she handled the twins! Ashley is very organized and knowledgeable and great with babies! I highly recommend her services! A few days a week makes a big difference for parents to get some much needed rest!! A+++
