Supportive, flexible, and compassionate

I'm Nicole, a local West Virginian in the Eastern Panhandle, who has an absolute passion for new mothers and new babies. I became a doula back in 2017 after almost 8 years of being a long term nanny to a few wonderful families. Supporting families is all I've ever known in my career. Being a former nanny showed me just how desperate of a need there was, for serious postpartum support. Not only for new mothers, but overwhelmed seasoned mothers too! I like to think of myself as a Master swaddler, and a good cook. I love to teach about baby wearing and loth diapers. I fold laundry like no other, and love some good vacuum lines. I am extremely passionate about lactation education, as well and pumping and bottle feeding education. When I'm not being a doula, I love to work in my garden, and try new recipes with food I grow for me and my family. On the weekends you'll find me probably hanging out with my 7 year old, and husband. we are super involved in our daughter’s Catholic school community, and our small town. Supporting small businesses is super important to us! When we're home we love to cook, bake, listen to vinyls, read, craft, and goof around with our rescue dog, Atlas.

What Clients Say About Nicole

“We were incredibly fortunate to have Nicole as our postpartum doula! Her support, expertise, and genuine care made all the difference during our transition into parenthood. From baby wearing to feedings, she guided us through every step, and her calm presence was invaluable. Nicole was wonderful with our son and helped me feel so much more confident as a new mom. We are beyond grateful for her and highly recommend her to parents looking for compassionate and knowledgeable support!”
