Experience: 9 yrs
I recently earned my Childbirth Doula Certification and am working towards becoming a full-spectrum doula. I am currently on track to complete the Postpartum Doula training in January of 2026. I have more than 9 years of childcare experience with four of those years being dedicated to twins. I've mostly worked with children ages 0-5years but feel comfortable with all ages. I am actively looking for birth doula and postpartum doula positions and am also available as a short term babysitter. I am CPR certified, do not smoke and have a clean driving history. I love animals, arts and crafts, dancing, singing, reading, and being outside. I have my Bachelors in Child and Adolescent Psychology and my Masters in Somatic Psychology. My Masters thesis was centered on the Mother's postpartum experience and creating a program that was supportive to Her experience. After four years in education, I made my way back to this passion of helping Mothers and families.
We worked with Jamie for the past year, from when our son was three months old until he was fifteen months; she also regularly helped care for our older child, now four. During her time with our family, Jamie was completing her studies to become a postpartum doula, and the depth of that training was evident in her work every day. Jamie is exceptionally thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, and attuned to the needs of both children and parents. She brought a calm, grounding presence into our home and was particularly skilled at supporting us during the early and often demanding postpartum period. Her sensitivity, sound judgment, and ability to anticipate needs made a meaningful difference for our entire family. In addition to her excellent childcare skills, Jamie consistently went above and beyond in supporting our household. She prepared healthy, delicious snacks for all of us — which was both practical and deeply appreciated during a busy season of life. She is flexible, dependable, and proactive, adapting seamlessly as routines shifted and needs evolved. Jamie is now pursuing postpartum doula work, and any family looking for knowledgeable, compassionate, and capable postpartum support would be fortunate to work with her. We recommend her enthusiastically and without reservation.
