Jess A. | Postpartum Doula in Wilmington, NC

Babymoon Doula Services

    Practice overview

    After the birth of my first daughter in 2013, I quickly realized that I was woefully unprepared for life with a newborn. Between the heaps of conflicting information available and sleep deprivation, my head was spinning. Thankfully a friend who is a midwife came to my home, taught me how to hand express breastmilk and how to use my pump, and *listened* to me. This experience in itself was life changing. I quickly became passionate about tearing down the obstacles that many parents face with a new baby. That same friend suggested I train to become a Postpartum Doula - a mother helper - basically. That was a decade ago. I have since worked with hundreds of families, supporting them all in their own unique way. Babymoon Doula Services was born in Jan 2023 as a fresh start for my doula practice. My priority is providing evidence-based information and nonjudgmental, compassionate care to every family I have the honor of serving. Packages are available for daytime care, overnight care, or a combination. All of my packages were designed to ensure the best start for each family by ensuring plenty of time rest, recover from birth, and bond with your baby.
