About us

Our mission is to provide professional personalized postpartum support to families as they adjust to life with their newborn during the fourth trimester though infancy.  

Maggie, Owner & Managing Director of Lake Country Newborns, failed during the fourth trimester. Both times. Or at least she felt that way. Maybe you can relate! She struggled with the lack of sleep. She struggled returning to work after maternity leave. She struggled to ask for help when she needed it. 

After the birth of her first daughter and a tough transition back into the workforce, she left her career managing a group home for pregnant and parenting teens to follow her heart and stay home for her growing family. To add some income, she opened her own certified in-home daycare, added another daughter a few years later, and cared for kiddos of all ages for almost a decade. There were good days and bad days, a lot like being a parent!  

As her girls got older, she retired her daycare and moved into managing a small health and wellness business very part-time. After the persistent insistence of her younger sister, Maggie finally pursued her professional postpartum doula training. She served a couple of private clients and eventually contracted for a couple of larger agencies. During that time, with her social worker hat on, she noticed a gap in services, right here in Waukesha County.  

After the persistent insistence of her husband, Maggie finally took the leap and started building the agency from the ground up in February of 2021. On July 14th, 2021, Lake Country Newborns opened. It is an honor to help mothers and families feel like they can thrive during the postpartum period. We are all here and happy to help make life with your newborn easier.
