Valerie S.

Greetings! I am so excited to meet you and your family. I am a birth mother to two and an “adoptive” mother to many, and I believe deeply that there is no greater love than serving others and helping bring families closer together. Supporting families during the postpartum season is not just my work, it’s a calling rooted in compassion, connection, and care.

My approach is grounded in holistic wellness and whole-person health. I believe that emotional and mental well-being are deeply intertwined with physical and social health, and I strive to nurture all aspects of a parent’s healing and transition. My personal journey, in addition to DONA trained in December 2025, has given me a wide range of lived experiences, including cesarean birth, breastfeeding, miscarriage, and welcoming a NICU infant. These experiences shape the way I show up for families—with empathy, gentleness, and a deep respect for each unique story.

As your postpartum doula, I offer tender, nonjudgmental support as you navigate this transformative time. Whether you need practical guidance, emotional reassurance, or simply a steady, caring presence, I am here to walk alongside you and help your family feel supported, connected, and cared for.
