You deserve to feel supported
Hi! I’m Lisette - founder of Belly to Baby Coaching, a PhD-prepared, board-certified labor and delivery nurse, and someone who is deeply passionate about supporting women through pregnancy and postpartum.
I created this space because I’ve seen firsthand what so many women go through - and how often they’re expected to navigate it alone.
In the hospital, I cared for women during some of the most life-changing moments of their lives. But what stayed with me wasn’t just the births - it was what happened after.
The questions
The uncertainty
The moments when a mother quietly wondered, “Is this normal?”
And too often, there wasn’t enough time, support, or follow-up to truly meet her where she was. I realized something important:
Women aren’t lacking strength - they’re lacking support
With advanced training and years of hands-on experience in labor, delivery, and postpartum care. I bring both clinical knowledge and real-world understanding of the families I support.
I know how to:
Recognize what’s normal - and what’s not
Help you make informed, confident decisions
Support you through both the physical and emotional aspects of this journey.
This isn’t generic advice - it’s evidence-based, personalized care designed around you.

Did you know??
Many moms feel more overwhelmed after going home than they did during labor
You’ll likely have fewer check-ins with providers postpartum than during pregnancy
It’s completely normal to wonder, “Is this normal?” multiple times a day
Physical recovery can be more intense and longer than expected
Emotional changes can happen quickly, even if everything is “going well.”
Mothers who seek out education and support during pregnancy are more well-informed about their medical options and have a more positive birth experience.
Your ongoing nurse support
A perinatal nurse coach is a medically trained expert who supports you through pregnancy, birth preparation, and postpartum recovery - not just during appointments, but in real life. Unlike traditional care, where visits are brief and spaced out, a perinatal nurse coach provides ongoing, personalized guidance so you’re never left wondering what’s normal and what to do next.
With a perinatal nurse coach, you have:
Clinical expertise you can trust
Personalized support tailored to your unique experience
Guidance between appointments, when questions actually come up
Help navigating decisions with clarity and confidence.
What this means for you. Instead of turning to Google or waiting for your next visit, you have someone in your corner who understands what your body is going through and supports both your physical and emotional needs.
The result of working with a perinatal nurse coach is that you feel:
More prepared for birth and postpartum
More confident in your decisions
Less overwhelmed and alone
It’s the kind of support most women don’t even realize they need - until they have it.
