Welcome to Northern Star, a place where your birth journey is honored and held with care.
Whether you’re preparing for labor, welcoming your baby, or settling into new parenthood, you deserve steady support you can trust.
We provide birth and postpartum doula services, childbirth education, and lactation guidance to families across South Jersey, Philadelphia, the Main Line, and the surrounding Southeastern Pennsylvania region.
New Announcement: If you’re planning a home birth, I’m proud to offer individualized, relationship-based midwifery care in Southeast PA and South Jersey.
Birth Doula Support
By adding a doula to your birth team, you give yourself the gift of continuous support and guidance throughout your pregnancy and birthing journey, and enhance the overall experience for you AND your spouse/family. Birth doula support has been reported to boost morale, increase confidence, enhance partner involvement, decrease unnecessary intervention, improve outcomes, and reduce anxiety/fear and birth trauma — which lends to a more positive and satisfying birth memory and postpartum transition!
Teamwork is key! As birth doulas, we love our OB colleagues, and will work steadfastly alongside your provider of choice (or recommend our faves) – And having done this work a while, we also believe that for many, Doulas and Midwives will make an optimal team. While they both have very different roles, they work together wonderfully to encourage a positive experience and improve overall outcomes, for those who are low risk and wishing to experience a low tech (intervention) birth. See how!
Postpartum Doula Support (Day or Night)
Need a few nights of sleep or an extra set of trusted and experienced hands to care for baby while you rest and recover from your birth experience?
Need someone to come love on you and your baby, keep you company, provide nuggets of newborn wisdom and education, and prepare you delicious snacks and tea while doing so?
We can help!
