Postpartum Doulas

  I am a Postpartum Doula and the mother of two daughters. I have always loved children, especially babies! Birth and Postpartum have been a passion of mine since the moment I felt the empowering energy that giving birth and motherhood brings. I love helping families come into their own and find their way through the early sacred days of parenthood. I feel passionate about bringing awareness to postpartum mood disorders and helping new moms and their loved ones navigate those rough waters. I would love to help you in building your support system for motherhood.

   My name is Nikki Karam and I am a Postpartum Doula. I am a self-professed foodie, adventure seeker, avid (and very amateur) lover of Pilates, and perpetual dreamer. I am a devoted wife and a mother to three children— ages five, three, and just under two. While motherhood has proven to be the most magnificent journey so far, it has also taught me that mothers (and their entire family) need more support in the days, weeks, and months after bringing life into this world. I believe that mothers need to be nurtured, encouraged, and empowered during the postpartum period. Every mother deserves the opportunity to see the amazing things she is capable of and I believe that comes with some loving support. I have a special interest in bringing awareness to postpartum mood disorders, various breastfeeding issues, and postpartum nutrition (I was a chef before I had children!). It would be my honor to serve families during their postpartum journey.

    My name is Deidre Honea and I am a postpartum doula! I am the mom to three energetic and beautiful children and enjoy life happily with my husband. Our family has a small urban farm where we raise chickens and rabbits and enjoy 4 full garden beds of herbs and heirloom varieties. I currently homeschool my sweet children and wouldn't have it any other way! Becoming parents is such a beautiful journey and it takes a village to navigate the growth. I am here to help make that growth a little bit easier and perhaps a little less lonely along the way. I cannot wait to meet you and grow with you!
