I'm Tessa! I'm passionate about caring for children, nurturing families, and promoting holistic wellness. I hold a B. S. in Health and Nutrition Sciences and have over 15 years of childcare experience, caring for newborns through adolescents. As the founder of Warrior Womban Wellness, I support families through fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and lactation, empowering women and families from preconception to beyond. I am a Full Spectrum Doula and Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, with certifications in CPR, BLS, and AED. I have also completed a Professional Childcare Training Course. I believe caregiving is rooted in connection, empowerment, and trust. My approach blends nurturing care, healthy routines, educational activities, and emotional support, all tailored to each child's needs. Every family is unique, and my attention to detail allows me to customize care that honors their values. I'd love the opportunity to care for your family-message me!
Tessa provided overnight doula care for our newborn son during his first 2 months. As first-time parents navigating those early weeks — including bringing our son home after a short NICU stay — her care was comforting and reassuring. She brought knowledge, patience, and calmness to the nights, thoughtfully answering our questions and easing our anxieties with explanations, practical guidance, and specific product recommendations. Tessa provided hands-on guidance, from recognizing signs of discomfort, to soothing a fussy baby, and of course, letting us catch up on sleep. As a lactation consultant, she was especially helpful in providing support around breastfeeding, pumping, and breastmilk management. She also consistently checked in on my recovery following a C-section, showing genuine care and attentiveness to both our baby and us as new parents. She was communicative and flexible when schedule adjustments were needed. Having Tessa care for our son during those first months gave us much-needed rest, and we are grateful for her expertise and support.
