Parenting Touch Inc.

Hello

My name is Ellen and I am a birth and postpartum doula, which means I offer non-medical support to new and seasonal families before, during, and after pregnancy. I am also a Baby-Led Sleep Consultant, I help parents understand their babies' unique sleep needs.

​

I help families to thrive during the most beautiful and challenging phase of our lives: parenthood. I believe that everyone has the right to make their own decisions without judgment and is empowered by knowledge, which includes pregnancy, birth, and parenting choices. I serve Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, and some Connecticut areas.

​

Some fun facts about me:

• I was born and raised in Brazil, currently living in Hopewell Junction/NY.

• My husband, Miguel, is Portuguese and we met during a ski trip in Vermont. We have a beautiful daughter who is 2 years old. The sweetest girl ever!

• I have a stepson who is (somehow) almost 12 years old.

• I love CrossFit and have been practicing it for 8 years. Except during 2020 - Wonder why?! And during my pregnancy. It was rough.

• I am a huge fan of How I Met Your Mother and constantly use their quotes for important moments in my life.

• Nothing makes my smile bigger than a brunch with bottomless Mimosas surrounded by my people!!!

Looking forward to connecting with you and getting to know each other more!!!
