Welcome to Parenthood

Whether it is your first time or you are returning to this space, I am here to support you and your family. As a postpartum doula, I offer warm, steady support as you recover, bond, and begin life with your new baby.

Whether you need nourishing meals, infant care guidance, emotional space to process, or rest during overnight shifts, I’m here to tend to your well-being. My care is rooted in respect for your pace, your family’s rhythm, and your unique needs. I offer flexible daytime, overnight, and combination support to ease the early weeks and beyond.

I believe every family deserves to feel held during this sacred transition—my role is to bring calm, reassurance, and a sense of spaciousness to your home. However you’re feeling today, you’re not alone. I’m here to walk alongside you.

This journey starts with care—and grows with connection.

Let's Do This Together!

What Does a Postpartum Doula Do?

A postpartum doula provides nonjudgmental, in-home support to families during the early weeks after birth. Their role includes newborn care guidance, feeding support, light household tasks, emotional reassurance, and helping parents rest and recover. They nurture the entire family—offering education, encouragement, and a calm presence as everyone adjusts to new roles. Whether during the day or overnight, a postpartum doula helps create a grounded, supported environment for healing, bonding, and growing confidence in early parenthood.

Is Mariposa Doula right for me?

Care is tailored to your family’s rhythms—honoring your instincts while offering guidance that supports confidence, rest, and connection.

Whether you need restful sleep, help during the day, or a blend of both, I offer flexible packages to meet your evolving needs.

From warm meals to light tidying, I help create a calm, functional space so you can focus on healing and bonding.

Whether chestfeeding, bottle feeding, or combo feeding, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support aligned with your goals.

I honor your traditions, languages, and healing practices—offering respectful support rooted in cultural awareness and care.

Additional Offerings Available:

Radiant Reiki

I offer Reiki support as a gentle, restorative option during the postpartum period for one-hour sessions. Reiki is a form of energy work that promotes balance, calm, and emotional grounding—ideal for moments of overwhelm, physical recovery, or when you simply need space to reconnect with yourself. Sessions are quiet, intentional, and supportive of your body’s natural healing process. Reiki can be especially helpful for soothing anxiety, regulating sleep, and releasing tension. I offer in-home or distant sessions, and each includes time for reflection and integration. Whether you’re navigating early postpartum, processing your birth experience, or seeking a deeper sense of peace, Reiki offers a nurturing space to feel held and re-centered. This care is open to all birthing and postpartum individuals.
