Postpartum doula
About Cai’lin
Raised on her family farm in Alberta, Cai’lin’s journey has been one of compassion and care. Her nurturing nature started with tending to animals in need, and over time, it naturally extended to babies and young children. With a decade of experience as a nanny and a behavior therapist for autistic children, Cai’lin found her calling in supporting families during the early stages of parenthood.
However, it wasn’t until she became a mother herself that Cai’lin’s purpose truly crystallized. The arrival of her daughters brought a profound serenity to her life, drowning out the chaotic noise of the world. It also awakened a sense of solidarity with all parents, spotlighting a community of unsung heroes who show up for their families Every Single Time. Inspired by the beautiful moments and the challenging trials of early motherhood, Cai’lin embarked on a new career path as a postpartum doula. Her goal is to empower new parents, helping them discover their incredible courage and don their own capes with confidence, joy, honesty, and humor.
Cai’lin’s driving force is to pay forward the life-changing support she received during her own parenthood journey, ensuring that others starting theirs are not left alone. Whether it’s offering feeding support, tackling household chores, providing Baby Care 101 lessons, or simply showering older siblings with much-needed attention, Cai’lin is there as your ally, cheering you on. A cared-for baby and family, an empty laundry basket, and a pot of soup simmering on the stove can work wonders for the tired soul. Cai’lin understands this and is committed to creating an environment where you can thrive.
In your corner, you will find a quirky and creative postpartum doula ready to support you. When she is not horsing around with her busy young family, Cai’lin enjoys writing books for her children, board games, crafting, learning, organizing, wearing exceedingly comfortable pants, and, of course, eating. She is passionate about assisting families through the realities of their lives, rather than just the picture-perfect moments curated for social media.
Her ultimate goal is to leave you feeling confident in your abilities, reminding you that you’ve got this - and spoiler alert, you absolutely do! So, if you’re seeking a postpartum doula who brings humor, creativity, and a genuine understanding of the challenges parenthood presents, look no further than Cai’lin. Together, let’s create a space where you can thrive and cherish the beautiful, messy reality of early parenthood.
