Empowering families across Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan to thrive in their early postpartum era and beyond

Hi, I’m Allison!

“Dar a luz” (“giving light”) refers to childbirth in Spanish.

After giving birth in 2021, I immediately felt that warm and fuzzy light. It was actually a lot of fuzzy, about three months of fuzz. After a home birth turned hospital birth turned surgical birth (after ~4 days of labor!), I made it to the other side but with little capacity to process everything.

My early postpartum journey was challenging, and yet still not as rough as the incredible burnout I felt after returning to work. Using my professional skillset, I designed holistic processes and tools that worked for my family and me to address our pain points and bring our vision for our family to life. Of course, our lives are still chaotic, but by getting a good chunk of the operations ironed out, we found the bandwidth to embrace the controlled chaos and these genuinely priceless moments.

Rediscovering my fuzzy light has inspired me to empower families during the early postpartum phase and beyond.

Let me help you build the family life you envision.
