Darla Lenz

Postpartum & Newborn Care Specialist | Gentle Sleep Coach

Hi! I’m native to Kansas City and I have a serious passion for helping families enjoy the transition that come with growing a family, not just survive it. Whether it is helping before, during, immediately after birth or months later it is so important for a family to have someone they can trust with the well being of their family.

After the birth of my daughter I realized how much women are lacking in conventional care. I made sure to be there for my friends & family as much as possible to help them through this time. Sometimes it was taking a meal, helping clean up around the house, holding the baby so they could rest, or just sitting and talking. Years later I heard the title “Postpartum Doula” and realized that that was what I was doing! I trained through DONA International and became a professional Postpartum Doula in 2018.

With my first few clients I came to realize the need for SLEEP both for babies to learn healthy sleep habits & for parents. I became aware of Summer Hartman and all that she was doing to help families get the sleep they need. I trained under her and in 2019 became a Professional Sleep Trainer & Consultant.

I would love to connect with you and help you find the balance you need so that you can have a wonderful postpartum experience!
