Offerings

What Cradled Offers

01
Postpartum Care
In the first tender weeks, I'm in your home holding the baby while you nap, running a load of laundry, or simply sitting with you while you process it all. Trained through DONA International.
02
Nourishment
Warm, healing meals prepared in your kitchen using ingredients you love. I'm trained in postpartum nutrition through Postpartum University.
03
Lactation Support
Gentle, evidence-based help with latch, positioning, pumping, and the emotional weight of feeding. Trained through UC San Diego's IBCLC preparation program.
04
Overnight Support
So you can actually sleep. I handle night feedings, settling, and soothing while you rest in another room.

Kourtney Vanasse
"Because it takes a village to raise a mother."

After years working as a paramedic and counselor, I kept seeing the same gap: families navigating the hardest weeks of their lives with almost no support. I became a postpartum doula because I believe the fourth trimester deserves the same care and preparation as the birth itself.

I work across New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts, and I genuinely love this work.

Kind Words
"When I think of a doula, I think 'above and beyond' and that is exactly what Kourtney is. There are two sacred places I would welcome her again and again, one is my home, and the other is my postpartum 'nest.'"

Mallory, via DoulaMatch

"We used Kourtney as our overnight doula after my first baby was born. She was able to see things we didn't see. I would hire Kourtney in a heartbeat again."

Sarah S., via DoulaMatch

"Kourtney cared for our family like we were her own. We would utilize her again in a heartbeat."

Sarah, via DoulaMatch

You deserve to be held, too.
