About Me + My Approach

Hi, I’m Greta! Founder of Cradle and Kin and postpartum doula specializing in holistic baby sleep and feeding. I’m also mama to my daughter Charlotte, wife to Brandon, and "dog mama" to Coozer.

From a young age, whenever someone asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always the same: a mom. I’ve always held a deep reverence for motherhood. It is transformative, complex, messy, sacrificial, and beautiful.

When I had Charlotte, I experienced firsthand how essential support is during pregnancy and postpartum. Blessed with an incredible "village," I was able to truly enjoy early motherhood and I firmly believe every parent deserves that same level of care. That experience inspired me to launch Cradle & Kin so I could be a piece of that village for other families.

Through my work with new parents, it became clear that sleep and feeding are where mamas often felt the most overwhelmed. I chose to focus here because these are the everyday challenges where thoughtful, 1:1 support can make a huge difference for a struggling family.

Whether you're struggling with one or trying to untangle both, my approach is simple:

• Holistic & Whole-Family: Looking at your baby's natural growth, feeding patterns, and overall family well-being as one connected picture.

• Zero Rigid Rules: No strict schedules, forced clock-watching, or pressure to leave your baby to cry it out.

• Flexible Care: Practical guidance tailored to what your baby and your family actually needs right now, so everyone can get a little relief.

I'm not here to sell you magic cures. I'm just here to help you figure out what your specific baby needs, take the pressure off, and give your family room to breathe.
