Postpartum Doula/ NCS Support

Compassionate Postpartum Support for New & Growing Families
The postpartum period is a time of healing, adjustment, and emotional transition. While welcoming a new baby can be filled with love, it can also bring exhaustion, overwhelm, and uncertainty — especially without support.
Postpartum doula support is designed to care for you, not just your baby.
As a Certified Postpartum Doula, I provide calm, non-judgmental support to families throughout Bluffton, Beaufort, Hilton Head, Savannah, and surrounding Lowcountry communities, helping the fourth trimester feel more supported and less isolating.

Recovering from birth and adjusting physically or emotionally Experiencing sleep deprivation or overwhelm Navigating feeding choices (breastfeeding, formula, pumping, or combination) Bringing baby home with older siblings Feeling isolated or unsure where to turn for support Wanting compassionate guidance without pressure or judgment

Client Experiences:
Dawn is AMAZING. As someone who is highly skeptic and was somewhat nervous about having a night nanny with my newborn son- she was nothing short of epic. Truly saved our lives as she was our night nanny for the month between my son’s 1st month to 2nd month jump. She is so calming and so trustworthy and I highly encourage anyone and everyone to use her for her services. She also was prompt every night she came and would answer any and all questions I had as an exhausted FTM (even on off hours during the day when I wasn’t sure what was up or down from being so tired). I told her as soon as we are pregnant with our second, I will be calling and booking for even more time. Cannot recommend her enough. She is worth every dollar spent and then some!

We hired Dawn in Feburary of 2024 for Night Care Services when we brought our baby girl home. Initially we hired her for a 1 week Contract, but quickly realized how beneficial her services were and extended the contract. Her contract ended in August of 2024 (6 whole months with our family!) because we couldn’t imagine not having her help as we began sleep training our baby. Dawn was attentive, compassionate, and answered ALL of the questions I presented her with! It was such a relief knowing the nights she would be with us. We highly recommend her service to postpartum families as they transition home with their babies.Hiring her for 6 months should be a testimonial in itself! We could never thank her enough for the confidence she instilled in us as new parents. The extra sleep and help around the house were just bonuses. We will always cherish our time together and look forward to working with her again in the future for baby #2!

We hired Dawn to start as our night nurse the day we got home from the hospital until our daughter reached 12 weeks of age. As first-time parents, her nurturing presence and extensive knowledge transformed what could have been a stressful and overwhelming time into a period of growth, learning, and precious moments with our newborn. She was also instrumental in helping us sleep-train our daughter from the start. Now at 4 months, she is sleeping 12 hours through the night!
Dawn is not just a Doula or a night nurse; she’s a baby whisperer who becomes an indispensable part of your family.
We’ll be booking her the second I find out I’m pregnant with our second child!
