Karla Aguilar, Newborn Care Specialist & Postpartum Doula
“The birth of a child is the birth of a parent.”
Welcoming a new baby is a beautiful journey, but the transition into parenthood can come with many new questions and adjustments. While pregnancy often comes with a strong support system, many parents are surprised by how little guidance is available once they return home.
That’s where I come in.
As a Certified NCS, Postpartum Doula, mother, and teacher, I provide evidence-based/ Non- Medical daytime and overnight newborn care, postpartum support, and personalized parenting guidance to help families feel confident, rested, and cared for. Every family is unique, and my services are thoughtfully tailored to your individual needs.
