Kristin Stinavage

As a Postpartum Doula, my ultimate goal is to provide unparalleled assistance during the crucial days and weeks after childbirth. I offer my unwavering support for up to 3 months after birth, providing expert guidance with infant care, and both emotional and physical support for the birthing and non-birthing parent. Light housekeeping, cooking, and access to invaluable resources are also included.

My unwavering focus is to be an impartial third-party helper for families as they seamlessly adjust to their life with a newborn. While my certification in CPR and First Aid is a testament example to my expertise, my role is strictly non-medical. Therefore, I don't offer medical advice, perform clinical tasks, or diagnose conditions.

I do, however, obtain and share key resources with you to be able to deal with such matters quickly.

I had the privilege of experiencing a farm-to-table lifestyle growing up visiting my Grandfather's dairy farm in Northeastern Pennsylvania and actively partaking in my Father's large backyard garden in Frederick, Maryland. These experiences set the tone for my passion for the food industry and farming skills in my own life - WWOOFing* in Borgo Val di Taro, Italy & the Relais & Chateaux property, Winvian in Litchfield, CT. Waking up to feed the pigs and chickens, pressing apples for cider, or spending my summer days pickling vegetables & making jams, are memories that I cherish.

My understanding of farm work has developed a profound respect for my family - as well as all farmers-, and what it takes to cultivate such a pristine product.

I am a Culinary Institute of America & Cornell University grad with more than ten years of experience in the food & hospitality industry across the country. From Esalen Institute in Big Sur, CA, Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises in Chicago, IL, and Sakara Life in NYC.
