Nurture To Flourish
"We particularly appreciated her style of direct, open, and compassionate communication. She brought laughter, tenderness, and joyful energy into our home. Daniella is warm, attuned, passionate about her work, and brings a wealth of specialized knowledge to this sacred and transitional time for families." - Mama Rachel
was originated as a soothing balm for my heart. Pouring from an empty cup impacted my quality of life, expression, and connections. Breaking a generational pattern, I felt a strong urge to embrace a new narrative. The mantra "SLOW DOWN, TUNE IN, FILL UP" became my guiding principle and forms the foundation of the support I provide. Together we will find moments of pause and presence, create connection in the postpartum chaos, embrace the discomfort, and infuse playfulness.
I help families connect to their innate wisdom as parents, develop deeper relationships with each other and find more ease and joy in their parenting experience. My approach is gentle and intuitive. I will empower you with the skillsets you need to embrace the ebbs and flows of parenthood. My intention as your doula is to facilitate a healing environment that encourages you to slow down, savor the moments and receive the self-nourishment you need to keep your cup full.
One of the most important things you can do for your child's well being is to nurture a relationship based on healthy, secure attachment and a sense of trust. The key to this is to attune to your baby and respond to their cues, communication and signals often enough that you create a secure bond to nurture their physical, social and emotional development. It's about understanding a child's unique spirit, respecting emotional needs, and navigating the journey together with a focus on genuine connection and holistic well-being
"Her boundless energy and enthusiasm are tempered by her ability to deeply listen. She has a thirst for knowledge of all the beauty-filled woman-ways and is a great resource for ideas and alternatives for caring for you and your little one.." - Mama Anayana

It is natural and normal for the first few weeks to feel disorganized and with presence, patience and mindful transition, we can guide your baby without resorting to fear-inducing sleep training methods. My primary focus lies in cultivating trust through responsive care, meeting your baby at their developmental stage, and empathizing with their experiences. This approach promotes the calming of their nervous system, facilitating a relaxed and peaceful transition to sleep.

Navigating the early stages of parenthood comes with a flood of information- from grandparents' biased perspectives to diverse stories from mom groups, along with conflicting advice from books and your support network. While everyone is well intentioned, in your primal and hormonal state, this can all feel like a lot! As your doula, I will stand as a neutral energy, bringing balance, inclusion, and focus on the whole family system. I will hold compassionate curiosity and reflect back to you, guiding you to your own unique family signature, and helping you to tap into your own innate wisdom.

" We contracted her services for support as I returned to work when our babe was around 6mo old. We knew we needed more than just “childcare” and felt so held and supported by Daniella through it all. Although we were a bit more fortified than the tender early postpartum days, the emotional transition was challenging and Daniella was intuitive and attuned to helping us navigate this transition- offering time to check in on me and my partner emotionally, offering gentle suggestions to the ever changing baby/ new parenting landscape, and most of all tuning in to our daughter’s cues to advocate for her needs. She held our daughter in the brightest light possible, meeting her in pure joy and play as well as holding space for her big emotions and valued needs. Daniella loved her like she was family, which is more than I could have ever asked for. We love you Tia Yella!” - Veronica
