Professional Postpartum Doula
Supporting San Francisco & Bay Area Families for over one decade.
The early weeks of postpartum can be both joyous and beautiful, filled with moments of tenderness and connection. It is a time when parents experience the wonder of a new life, each coo and smile bringing immense joy. However, this period can also be overwhelming, with fatigue and the challenges of adjustment taking a toll.
Having a supportive presence can make a significant difference in this transition. The first weeks are not only about caring for the newborn, but also about healing and nurturing the new parents. When parents receive the care they need, they can better enjoy these early days and build a strong foundation for their family.
Every parent deserves the support that fosters their wellbeing, allowing them to relish in the joyous moments while also navigating the complexities of their new roles. By offering understanding, resources, and companionship, I can help transform this time into a period of growth and healing, ensuring that no parent feels alone in the journey ahead. Together, we can cultivate an environment where as parents you feel empowered and supported, enabling you to embrace the beauty of early parenthood fully.
Testimonials
“Genevieve is an absolute gem and a true baby whisperer. From the start, she was incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and attentive to our family’s needs and preferences. She never imposed her methods but instead worked with us to create a plan that aligned with our parenting style and goals. Her care for our baby was exceptional – she handled everything from feeding and bathing to putting him to bed, ensuring he followed a healthy routine. She woke me to pump while letting my husband sleep, respecting our individual preferences. Genevieve consistently went above and beyond, coming over before her official start date to help me with feeding and providing valuable tips and resources. She not only cared for our baby but also supported me as a new mom, teaching me essential skills like baby massage and bathing. Her thoughtful notes during the night kept us informed and reassured. Even outside of her shifts, she was always just a text away, ready to offer advice and recommendations. Genevieve’s warmth, flexibility, and expertise made our lives easier, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Genevieve joined us for 8 weeks when our preemie baby was already home for a month. The 3 days a week that Genevieve was with us allowed us to get some much needed rest. We knew our first baby was being cared for by someone so nurturing, sweet, patient, and experienced. Genevieve brought us tea, gave us useful tips, and just listened to us with no judgment. From the moment we first spoke, we knew we wanted to have her join us in this special - yet vulnerable time. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family needing night support. Our baby is now older and we still keep in touch and certainly miss Genevieve!”

“Genevieve was a tremendous support during our postpartum journey as first-time parents of twins. From the moment she arrived, her calm demeanor and expertise eased the stress that often came with caring for two newborns. She provided not only practical assistance with infant care, but also emotional support that helped us navigate the challenges of sleepless nights and twin dynamics.
Her expertise was evident in every interaction. Genevieve offered hands-on guidance with feeding, diaper changes, and establishing a sleep routine, which allowed my partner and me to catch up on much-needed rest. She also encouraged us to communicate openly as a couple, fostering a positive environment amidst the chaos.
What stood out the most was Genevieve’s ability to listen and adapt to our family's unique needs. Whether providing advice on breastfeeding, formula advice, or simply offering a listening ear, she made us feel understood and supported.
Having Genevieve on our team made the transition to parenthood smoother and more manageable. We are incredibly grateful for her presence during such an overwhelming time and would highly recommend her to any parents, especially those navigating the challenges of twins.”
