ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Chrissie! I’m a certified Birth & Postpartum Doula, Lactation Counselor, and Infant Sleep Consultant serving families in Chicago. As your doula, my role isn’t to give you a set of rules or make decisions for you, it’s to stand beside you. I’ll help you prepare for birth, support you in the hospital or at home, and be there in the early weeks when everything feels new. I can teach you how to read your baby’s cues, guide you through feeding (breastfeeding, pumping, or bottle-feeding), talk through sleep strategies, or help with babywearing so your hands are free and your baby stays close. Sometimes the support looks like answering a question at 2 a.m., and sometimes it’s folding laundry or making sure you eat a hot meal.

Families often search for birth doula support, postpartum doula care, lactation counseling, or infant sleep consulting, but what they truly want is someone who understands how hard this transition can feel and who shows up with both compassion and practical solutions. That’s the kind of care I love to offer.

When I’m not supporting families, I’m with my own kids, exploring our Chicago neighborhood, or connecting with other parents in the community. I believe it really does take a village, and I’d be honored to be part of yours.
