Kimberly B. Email & Phone Number

Are you an expectant or new grandparent who wants to connect with your grown kids and spend more time with your grandbaby or grandkids? Are you becoming a parent and wish you had more support from your family but wish you didn't have to tell them what to do?I have built a class on 3000 postpartum families that I have served, learning what works and what doesn't serve new parents. I believe in building harmony through keeping the bubble small but efficient, and that early support results in more love, trust and better bonds between extended families--as well as a better life for babies!I help parents & grandparents understand and interpret their babies. Working with 750 sets of twins over 2 decades of being a doula has given me nuanced understanding of what each newborn needs, which helps parents and grandparents feel confident.I love teaching classes through Providence Health System in Portland, Oregon where I offer Becoming a Grandparent, Feeding Your Newborn, Twins and More and New Mom's Groups, as well as Newborn Care and Breastfeeding Comprehensive classes.I love creating tools that help others understand and care for babies, and have made two professional newborn videos on bathing, swaddling, and understanding babies needs.My specialties are early family transitions, grandparents welcoming a new baby, lactation support, and managing twins and triplets.I was IBCLC certified in 2011, so breast and bottle feeding is a huge focus of my education and experience. I'm always looking for opportunities to support families through the early days of life and healing after birth or welcoming babies. It's time for a postpartum revolution and I am starting with new parents and grandparents!
