Postpartum Doula, Sleep Training and Recovery Specialist in Manhattan

“Postpartum is a quest back to yourself. Alone in your body again. You will never be the same, you are stronger than you were.”

-Amethyst Joy

This season is not about doing everything perfectly. It’s about being supported while you heal, rest, and settle into life with your baby.

Luxury concierge postpartum care for modern Manhattan families

The days and weeks after birth can feel overwhelming—especially in a city that never slows down. At Smooth Transitions Postpartum Concierge Services, we provide calm, professional support to help you recover, care for your newborn, and adjust to life during the fourth trimester.

Led by Yvonne Hancock, Certified Postpartum Doula, Lactation Counselor, and Newborn Specialist, our care supports both mother and baby during one of the most vulnerable seasons of life. Whether this is your first baby or your next, you deserve guidance that feels reassuring, personalized, and grounded in experience.

Postpartum is more than feeding schedules and sleep. It’s physical recovery, emotional changes, learning your baby, and learning yourself as a parent. Without support, this season can feel confusing and exhausting. With the right care, it can feel calmer, more supported, and easier to navigate. Our concierge services are tailored to your family and may include postpartum recovery support, newborn care education, feeding guidance, sleep support, overnight care, and traditional belly binding to promote healing after birth.

In a city like Manhattan, the traditional “village” often doesn’t exist—but it’s still deeply needed. Smooth Transitions brings that village to you. We offer in-home and virtual support throughout Manhattan, including the Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Tribeca, and surrounding neighborhoods. Every family is different, which is why our care is fully customized to your needs, schedule, and lifestyle.

Smooth Transitions is here to help you feel confident, cared for, and less alone during the fourth trimester.

  • I cannot recommend Yvonne enough as a postpartum doula. She was incredibly knowledgeable, dependable, and truly went above and beyond to make sure both my baby and I felt supported during those early weeks. From helping with baby care and watching my newborn so I could rest, to belly binding support and thoughtful guidance, she brought so much calm, confidence, and care into our home. She anticipated needs before I even had to ask and made a vulnerable time feel much more manageable. I’m so grateful for her support and would absolutely recommend her to any new parent looking for compassionate, expert postpartum care.

    —Kailin V.

  • Yvonne was such a source of comfort and knowledge when I brought my first baby home. Not only did she prioritize my well-being and sanity and nerves but she helped me set up my home and routines to support our newborn. I would be a lost mess without her. Thank you, Yvonne, for the care you continue to give; you've made this experience a lot more positive and smooth than it would have been without you!

    —Alison C.

  • Yvonne was the perfect support for our postpartum moments. Im so glad we found her. She is so professional, knows everything about babies and how moms feel physically and emotionally after delivery. I don’t know what we would have done without her and can’t thank her enough!
