Doula Services in Brooklyn, NYC and Beyond
Sleepy Eyes Baby World offers doula services for every season of growing a family: fertility, birth, postpartum, feeding, newborn care and loss. Also, all doula services come from one caregiver, Marcelline David, in Brooklyn, NYC, New Jersey, Connecticut and Upstate New York.
Our doula services at a glance
You can choose one service, or else combine a few. For example, many families pair birth support with postpartum care. Then, if feeding feels hard, lactation support can join the plan.
Why one caregiver for every stage?
Most families meet a new helper at every stage. In contrast, our families keep one familiar face, so there are fewer introductions and more trust.
Because Marcelline holds six certifications, she can shift as your needs change. For example, she may help you prepare for labor. A few weeks later, she may help with night feeds or a sleep routine.
What our doula services do not include
Our care is non-medical. Therefore, we do not diagnose, prescribe or replace your doctor, midwife, nurse or pediatrician. Instead, we work alongside them, and we help you know when to call them.
If you need medical lactation care, we will suggest you also see an IBCLC or your pediatrician. In addition, for mental health concerns after birth, Postpartum Support International offers a helpline and support groups.
How to get started
To begin with, call 347-356-4691 or send a booking request. After that, we will talk about your dates, your home and your goals. Finally, you get a clear plan and quote. Rates depend on the service, hours and location, so we share them during your consultation.
We also travel across our service areas, and you can find quick answers on our FAQ page.
Questions about our doula services
Can I combine more than one service?
Yes. Many families combine birth support, postpartum care and lactation help, so Marcelline builds a plan that changes as your baby grows.
Are your services medical?
No. Doulas, lactation support counselors and newborn care specialists give non-medical support, so we always encourage you to follow your medical team’s advice.
Do you work with families who use formula?
Yes. We support every feeding choice, including breastfeeding, chestfeeding, pumping, formula and combination feeding.
When should I book?
As early as you can, especially for birth support and overnight care. However, you can reach out at any time, even after your baby arrives.
Do you support twins?
Yes, because Marcelline has six years of experience with twins and other multiples.
