Meet Carrie

Best doula in chicago

Carrie is a DONA trained postpartum doula on our team. She has supported families since 2009, providing both childcare and project management services. The transition to postpartum doula came about after she noticed the lack of support and care many parents feel after birth. There was a need for warm, knowledgeable, shame-free guidance and she knew she could fill that role.

Carrie provides reliable and non-judgmental care to her families. As a queer person, she is able to provide thoughtful support for LGBTQ+ families, and she sees every family as deserving of love and affirmation, no matter how their bonds are formed.

Whether families are feeding their babies with their bodies, using formula, or a combination of both, Carrie supports their feeding journey, and she is able to answer questions about positioning, latching, and safe bottle preparation. Carrie sees mental health as a facet of how parents choose to feed their newborns, and she provides guidance for making choices that support the well-being of all members of the family.

Carrie is pet-friendly, as she has 1 dog and 2 cats of her own, and she is not intimidated by even the most boisterous of dogs.
