Postpartum & Sleep support
designed for you
If you’re seeking personalized, nurturing support for both you and your baby, my postpartum doula and sleep consulting services in Western Connecticut are designed to help your entire family rest, recover, and thrive.
Maternity Leave
Few periods in life are as intense as the transition into motherhood. Your baby is your first thought - they need to be comforted, soothed, and acclimated to the world around them. It can be easy to forget that you, too, need time and space to acclimate to your new body, world, and life.
The physical and emotional care needed during this time can also be complicated by more mundane needs. Your laundry needs to be done, the family needs to eat, and showers eventually become necessary. None of these are as important as caring for yourself and your baby, but it can be easy to feel pressured to get back into the swing of daily life.

it means me too"

Gift Registry Consultation
Thoughtfully Prepare for Postpartum- Without the Overwhelm
Did you know the average couple spends 40+ hours researching baby products and building a registry?
As a postpartum doula, sleep consultant, and gift registry advocate, I help parents cut through the noise—ensuring you register for what truly supports you without overspending or getting lost in a sea of baby gear.
Instead of piles of onesies and gadgets you may never use, I guide you in creating a practical, well-balanced registry that includes:
- Essential baby gear (without the gimmicks)
- Postpartum support services like doula care, lactation support & pelvic floor therapy
- Insider recommendations based on years of hands-on experience
- Must-have vs. nice-to-have guidance tailored to your lifestyle
I’m also partnered with Be Her Village, a free registry that helps parents receive the support they need—not just more stuff.
90-Minute Virtual Consultation + Personalized Gift Registry Guide

In this one-on-one consultation, we’ll discuss your unique needs, parenting style, and budget to build a registry that truly serves you.
Preparing for your new arrival can feel overwhelming, but I’m here to help simplify the process and tailor it to your unique needs. My goal is to guide you in building a registry that truly supports you and your growing family.
What’s Included:
• 90-Minute Virtual Consultation – We’ll discuss your lifestyle, preferences, and priorities to ensure your registry reflects what you truly need.

Infant & Toddler Sleep Support
(For Babies 19 Weeks - Toddlers Still In a Crib)
Struggling with your baby or toddler’s sleep? You’re not alone.
If what once worked no longer does, I’m here to help.

My approach is warm, responsive, and tailored to your family’s needs. I focus on gentle consistency and supportive strategies that improve sleep while respecting your baby’s temperament, development, and your parenting style.

With compassion and reassurance, I’ll guide you at a pace that feels right for your family, so you can improve sleep in a way that feels safe, supportive, and aligned with your values.
With the right support, restful nights are possible for everyone.

Kristin has been a tremendous blessing to us.
“Kristin began helping my wife and me shortly after we returned home with our daughter from the hospital NICU. She was immediately a calming and stabilizing presence in our home and helped us during very challenging times, in just the way a loving family member would. We always felt completely comfortable and at ease around her. My wife and baby faced a range of medical situations and Kristin was always ready to answer our questions with insight and practical wisdom. Her advice with difficult lactation issues was truly first-rate; offering more insightful and effective help than any lactation consultant and doctor we visited. Kristin is effective with household matters, a source of intelligent and sound advice, and has a warm, gentle spirit. She has been a tremendous blessing to us and we can not recommend her enough."
