She is a seasoned Postpartum Caregiver, Postpartum Chef and Birth Doula, committed to nurturing mothers, babies and families since 2007. My mission is to ensure that mothers embark on their journey into motherhood feeling cherished, well-nourished and cared for. Shelley draws inspiration from her 30-year journey learning how to cook Ayurvedic cuisine passed down through generations by her Pakistani mother-in-law. Advanced certifications in Ayurvedic Postpartum Care from The Center for Sacred Window Studies beautifully complement her culinary expertise.
Shelley is equally passionate about supporting mothers in emotionally processing their birth stories. With advanced training in Birth Story Medicine, she has guided hundreds of mothers in healing their birth experiences. In a session with Shelley, mothers reclaim their sense of self and embrace their birth stories with self-compassion and pride, regardless of the outcome.

With over 175 births attended as a birth doula and thousands of hours caring for mothers during their crucial 40-day postpartum period, Shelley possesses profound in-the-field expertise in addressing the needs of postpartum mothers. Feeding and caring for hundreds of mothers, Shelley has witnessed remarkable results–speedy recovery from birth, abundant milk supply and peacefulness among her clients. This led Shelley to cultivate a methodology for postpartum care that undeniably works. The postpartum mothers she serves thrive. It’s a life-changing approach. She knew she had to teach families to do what she does, so she started her business, New Mother Caregiving, LLC to share her recipes and knowledge with the world.
