How I Can Support You

Care rooted in The Eden Method — support from the first breath to the first bedtime. I offer full-spectrum family care across birth, postpartum recovery, and gentle newborn sleep, grounded in emotional safety, attachment-supportive education, and PSI-informed awareness.

Care may also include thoughtful, supportive elements such as gentle birth documentation, environmental support, and continuity across pregnancy, birth, and the early weeks at home — always woven in with intention and presence.

☁️ Gentle Newborn Sleep Coaching & Care

Personalized newborn care and gentle sleep support that protects attachment and emotional well-being — never Cry-It-Out. Support for short naps, day–night confusion, overtired spirals, fussy evenings, and establishing early rhythms so you feel more confident and less overwhelmed.

🌿 Birth Doula Support

Grounded, trauma-aware support for labor — including home birth, VBAC journeys, and families who want calm advocacy and emotional steadiness throughout birth. Integrative positioning, ambience design, and continuous comfort help you feel informed, respected, and supported every step of the way.

🕊️ Postpartum Recovery & Nourishment

Gentle support for recovery, feeding, emotional wellness, and early sleep rhythms — with PSI-informed awareness of perinatal mood needs. Especially helpful for families feeling stretched thin, exhausted, or unsure how to balance newborn care with their own healing.

Whether this is your first baby or a new chapter in your growing family, Eden & Embrace offers steady, emotionally safe, whole-family support through every season of early parenthood.

Gentle Newborn Sleep & Postpartum Family Care

Those early weeks can feel tender and intense — your baby is adjusting to the world, and you’re learning how to care for them while caring for yourself. If rest feels far away or your days feel heavier than you expected, you’re not alone.

Through The Eden Method, Eden & Embrace offers gentle newborn sleep guidance, attachment-informed postpartum support, and holistic family care that brings steadiness back into your home. I help you understand your baby’s cues, reduce overwhelm, and create rhythms that feel calm, connected, and sustainable. Support is available virtually and locally throughout West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C.

Whether it’s contact naps, frequent waking, postpartum recovery, or simply wanting to feel more confident, this approach blends gentle sleep education, nurturing guidance, and restorative postpartum rituals into one continuous care path — helping your home feel softer, steadier, and more rested again.

Common Questions, Answered with Care

What does a gentle newborn sleep coach do?

A gentle newborn sleep coach helps families create calm, connection-based routines that honor baby’s cues — without using Cry-It-Out, Ferber, or extinction methods. I guide parents in establishing realistic rhythms for naps, nighttime, and feeding while protecting trust, attachment, and emotional well-being.

How is a postpartum doula different from a nanny or night nurse?

A postpartum doula nurtures the entire family — not just the baby. My role focuses on your recovery, emotional adjustment, and confidence as a parent. I offer gentle feeding support, newborn care education, rest strategies, and a grounded presence that helps you feel safe, supported, and seen during this tender season.

Do you attend home births or work with hospital births?

Yes. I attend both home and hospital births, but my approach is deeply rooted in calm, physiological, home-like birth support. I collaborate with your chosen care team to create an environment that feels sacred, peaceful, and empowering — whether at home or in a hospital setting.

Can we work together virtually if I’m outside of West Virginia?

Absolutely. I offer virtual newborn sleep coaching, birth preparation, and postpartum consultations across West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C.

Do you offer birth documentation or photos?

Yes. Birth documentation is offered as a gentle keepsake alongside doula care. When appropriate, I may capture candid moments during labor, birth, or the immediate postpartum period — with hands-on support, emotional presence, and your care always coming first.

Ready to Begin?

Your journey into parenthood deserves care that feels calm, connected, and truly supportive. Whether you’re preparing for a home birth, settling into postpartum recovery, or learning gentle rhythms for newborn sleep, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
