Vonnie’s love of all things baby started at an early age in the church nursery, where she would volunteer to care for infants during Sunday services. Years later, her own babies were also cared for in the same nursery as Vonnie served on their Board as well as the Lowell YMCA Teen Center’s Board when her kids were younger. 

 

Volunteering has been a passion of Vonnie’s from a young age and as her kids left home for college, she found a new opportunity to volunteer with postpartum moms through a non-profit called MomsBloom. 

 

Vonnie has been mentoring postpartum moms and caring for newborns and siblings for 14 years, and she is a Certified Postpartum Doula through ProDoula. She is also a yoga teacher and her specialities include meal prep, organization, and caring for multiples.

 

Vonnie provides all families with non-judgemental physical and emotional support, gentle guidance, and education. Her goal is to provide compassionate care and community, allowing families to flourish and thrive!

 

Vonnie lives in Grand Rapids and enjoys spending time with family and friends, music and movies, reading and writing, and exploring new parks and playgrounds with her grandson, JP.
