My Story

Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to start a family sooner rather than later. Looking back, I believe that's where my passion for caring for babies first began. After High School, I started working at a hotel. During that time, I occasionally helped out at a daycare where I loved watching the little ones learn, grow, and develop their personalities. Not long after, I came across an ad to become an Au Pair. It felt like the perfect next big step in life, so I moved from my home town of Hamburg, Germany, all the way to New York. Caring for a newborn and two older siblings wasn't always easy, but I enjoyed every second of it. ​

Just before my time as an Au Pair came to an end, I met my husband. We instantly clicked, started dating and eventually started building our life together in Dallas, Texas. After we got married, I started a new job as a daytime nanny. While I worked for the family, they announced they were expecting another baby, which gave me the opportunity to experience another newborn and postpartum journey alongside them.

Then it was my turn: I was pregnant with a baby girl!! 

Like many first-time moms, I was so excited. I tried so hard to not research every little detail but I needed to know one thing:

Who can help me while I'm healing from birth?

Thankfully, it didn't take long for my mom to offer help. She traveled all the way from Germany to support me during my postpartum recovery while helping out caring for her first grandbaby. 

Just like that I got to experience the greatest gift: what it means to have a village. 

Little baby Matilda was an amazing baby. She was everything I prayed for. She slept through the night by 9 weeks so her mama got all the rest she needed. Going through postpartum and realizing how crucial the right support can be, inspired me to become a Postpartum Doula. My goal is to give that back to as many parents as possible. I would love for you to experience that same support. Having someone when you feel alone.

Because every family deserves a village.
