Grace Butler — Certified Birth Doula, Certified Postpartum Doula, & Pediatric Sleep Consultant

Hi, I’m Grace.

I’m a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, newborn care specialist, and pediatric sleep consultant with 4 years of experience supporting over 100 families along the way.

Before becoming a doula, I spent eight years as a nanny working closely with children and families, including neurodivergent families. That experience shaped a lot of how I support people now. It taught me to pay attention, stay flexible, and recognize that no two babies, parents, or families need the exact same thing.

Now I bring that background together with my professional training, hands-on experience, and my own experience as a mom to support families through birth, postpartum, newborn care, and sleep.

Outside of work, I’m a mom to a 4-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old Lab, so life at home is usually equal parts busy, loud, and very loved.

My Approach

My approach is calm, evidence-based, flexible, and completely nonjudgmental.

I don’t believe there is one right way to give birth, feed a baby, recover postpartum, or approach sleep. My job is not to push you toward a specific outcome. It’s to help you understand your options, trust your instincts, advocate for what matters to you, and make informed decisions that fit your family.

During birth, that means being part of your care team and helping you feel informed, supported, and involved in your own care.

Postpartum, it means helping you understand your baby, build confidence, and find rhythms that actually work in your home.

With sleep, it means looking at the whole picture rather than forcing every baby into the same schedule or method.

No matter what stage we’re in, the goal stays the same: support that feels grounded, practical, and right for you.
