Daphney -Birth & Postpartum Doula and Nanny

  • Daphney’s journey into birth work began in the tender, transformative space of early parenthood. After eight years as an infant and toddler nanny — five of them spent supporting postpartum mothers — she discovered a deep calling to walk beside families through birth and beyond.

    Her care is rooted in compassion, cultural awareness, and presence, shaped by her experience working with families across four countries. She believes every parent deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported, and she finds purpose in creating that space.

    Now expanding her practice as a fertility doula, with plans to add lactation and sleep support, Daphney is passionate about nurturing families through every step of their journey. Gentle, grounded, and deeply dedicated, she offers care that honors both the physical and emotional transitions of welcoming new life.
