Vanessa is a warm and kind certified Birth & Baby University postpartum doula. She provides overnight care for both families welcoming their first baby as well as families welcoming a new addition to an already busy household.

She is proactive with tidying up the house, including helping with dishes, washing bottles, household organization, and baby laundry.

Before becoming a doula, Vanessa gained over 14 years of hands-on experience caring for infants and children in both home and center-based settings. She was a nanny for several families, forming strong bonds and providing personalized care tailored to each baby and child’s unique needs. Vanessa also spent many years working in a daycare environment, where she supported infants & children through key developmental stages and partnered closely with families to encourage healthy routines and growth.

Families love Vanessa’s warm, dependable, and engaging presence. She is consistently reliable, punctual, and respectful—qualities that instantly build trust and ease in the home. Vanessa’s caring and loving nature shines through in every interaction. Her fun, outgoing personality brings a lightness and joy that children adore. Families appreciate her clear communication and the way she approaches each day with integrity and heart.

When Vanessa isn’t supporting families, she enjoys riding her bike and exploring new places with her dog, Dobby.
