The Dumbo Doula

The Dumbo Doula brooklyn style postpartum support for families in northern NJ xx

My goal is to provide postpartum support (and additional services) to help nurture, educate and assist families during this major life event and change. Through experience (both my own and from helping others) I hope to be able to provide you and your family with a safe and nonjudgemental presence as you transition into this next new chapter in your life.

Updated guidelines released today from the AAP. Babies and parents should sleep in the same room for at least the first 6 months to minimize SIDS.

A new report by the American Academy of Pediatricians is recommending parents sleep in the same room as their infants, but not the same bed, for at least the first six months of their life.

Sleep is such a touchy subject. I get many questions from parents on what to do and what is normal and "right." Sleep is an area I don't touch with clients for many reasons, one is my personal beliefs and convictions. As someone who provides unbiased support to new parents and families, this is an area I feel unable to do so.

Personally I don't believe in the phenomenon that is sleep training. This is an excellent article and supports much of what I believe and what feels instinctual. I always tell my families to trust themselves and their guts. If it makes you feel sick, then it isn't right for you or your baby.

AAP’s sleep recommendations don’t take into account needs of real infants.
