Imagine having a postpartum doula as a personal guide by your side after the birth of your baby. Someone compassionate who will care for you as you heal. Someone with experience who will provide breastfeeding support and teach you how to care for your precious baby. Someone with insight who will address your concerns, answer your questions and lighten the load as you begin your journey into motherhood. I will gently counsel you and your husband/partner through the highs and lows with patience, warmth, humor, and understanding.
With two sons, two beautiful grandchildren, and over 35 families supported as a postpartum doula, I look forward to meeting your new family.
~ Dina D. Toy, Postpartum Doula
"Dina’s doula services were an invaluable part in helping us to develop as capable and effective parents for our newborn during those sleep-deprived first few months." - Evan
"Dina is such a pro but for me, what makes her so special is her warmth, gentleness, and loving energy. Her doula work isn’t just a job, it is her passion and it shows. It touched my heart to see how tender and loving she was with Jack. Dina left a lasting impression on our family and we are so grateful for our time with her." - Jane
“Dina is the absolute best. I initially planned on meeting other postpartum doulas for the interview process but after meeting Dina I didn't need to meet anyone else: she was perfect. Not only does Dina have a wonderful, nurturing way about her, but she also is incredibly knowledgeable about child development, postpartum care for mom, etc. She addressed my questions and concerns with evidence-based information and would gently bring up tips and information to me if I was in a new-mom haze and needed a boost. I cannot recommend Dina enough!” - Caitlin
