Michele Cooke: Home Made Love Doula, Certified Lactation Education Counselor

I acknowledge each mother and child are different, and I completely support, without judgement, whichever feeding method you use. I'm ready to assist you through the ups and downs of breastfeeding, or to help you with formula preparation and bottle feeds.

I also recognize that babies can be adopted or born through surrogates, and that families with one parent, or two dads, or any other possible family configuration, need support for their newborn infants, and I'm ready to help you adjust to your new life.

I make it a point to understand each client's goals and concerns, preferred routines and household priorities so I can step in and make your life easier, while you relax and bond with your baby or get much needed sleep.

I'm here to listen, act as a resource for emerging questions, and brainstorm with you to resolve tricky situations that may arise. I document the care I provide so you know what happened, when, and how your baby responded.

You can truly recover and rest, knowing that someone who loves your baby is providing skilled, attentive care.
