We are a postpartum family support agency, providing emotional and physical support to birthing individuals and their families in addition to families birthed through surrogacy, adoption, kinship care, or foster care.

      Telisha is very knowledgeable about prenatal care and children. She has helped me get through many tough times during my first year as a new Mom. She was comforting and helped me develop a routine for me and my baby. She was able to answer questions during my pregnancy about what I could expect. She also has helped me learn infant massage techniques to bond with my daughter. Telisha is very gifted in this area and I highly recommend her services!

      Telisha reached looking for support and accountability. She listened to all the advice and suggestions I gave her and applied them. She then made sure to check in with her progress. She is proactive and enjoys being a doula. She cares about informing and empowering parents. She is intelligent, kind and compassionate. I would highly recommend her to families.

      Telisha is organized, professional, sensitive and very knowledgeable. Her thoughtfulness is what stands out to me most. Ive been fortunate enough to have experienced her during and after both of my pregancies. Her support on both ends have been invaluable. Also, her infant massage class was very informative. Not only did I learn tips that would aid in my baby’s digestion, but this time was like selfcare for me – it was relaxing, engaging and very sweet. I highly recommend her!
