Almost nothing is more satisfying than helping a parent-child dyad find success with breastfeeding after they have struggled.

Remember: If you have pain when nursing, seek support immediately from a qualified lactation counselor or IBCLC. Breastfeeding should NEVER hurt!

Congratulations to the Levie family! It was such an honor to attend them as they welcomed baby Oliver after a tumultuous pregnancy.

There is no other experience like being allowed to hold space for a new family after a joyful birth.

Welcome, baby Oliver! You are so fortunate to have these two as your parents, and you are so very, very loved.

Melissa Kistler is new to doula practice, but an old hand at labor and delivery after having four children of her own.

She is a member of DONA international and is currently pursuing DONA certification as a birth and post-partum doula, as well as pursuing ALPP certification as a lactation counselor.

Melissa believes that every laboring mother - and partner! - deserves the calm, steady support of a trusted elder sister to see them through the momentous miracle of birth and those first critical days with a newborn.

Please feel free to reach out and schedule a consultation to help you decide if Melissa is the right doula for your family.

**Expectant parents are welcomed regardless of race, nationality, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, or gender identification. Kindness is the only pre-requisite.**
