Lauren K. | Postpartum Doula in NJ

    Practice overview

    Hello! I live in NJ with my husband of 8 years, and my 2 boys (5 & 2). Motherhood rocked me, changed me, shaped me, in all ways I had no idea it would.. Some days are absolutely amazing, and some days are incredibly hard. I have always prided myself on being real and raw about my motherhood journey and my own mental health struggles. Motherhood can feel lonely, but you are NEVER alone. I am very passionate about postpartum care as I myself struggled with PPA and PPD. I remember all too well the sleepless nights, trouble with nursing and supply, learning a brand new baby's needs, as well as healing my own body after 2 c-sections. I had amazing care and am very thankful to those who helped and supported me during the biggest change in my life. I knew I was meant to support others, in any way they need, as they embark on this challenging but absolutely incredible journey.

    Care philosophy

    My 3 main goals:

    1. To promote and protect the physical and emotional recovery of the mother. 2. Help that sweet newborn adjust to life outside of the womb. 3. Take care of anything that gets in the way of 1 & 2.
