About me

Hi! My name is Doula Alanah & I am located in New York City. My goal is to help my client(s) and their team create a birth plan & begin taking intentional steps to prepare for desired labor. I create a judgement free environment where clients feel safe to share their labor goals & childrearing preferences. I am an experienced yoga instructor and can provide prenatal yoga ad sound baths I assist my client(s) who choose to birth in hospital settings by teaching them advocacy skill's. I enjoy incorporating affirmations, birth balls, partner exercises, books, yoga, etc to prepare birthing people for labor. I also integrate asana, pranayama, meditation, sound healing & talk therapy practices for prenatal & postnatal mama’s! My favorite trimester is the fourth as Mama is healing from labor, transforming into motherhood & learning her newborn. I love providing postpartum rituals, baby wearing tips, breast feeding & formula tips, providing emotional support and herbal remedies for recovery. In my free time I lead yoga, classes, enjoy being outdoors & am a mama to a toddler. I’m also the proud founder of Full Circle Wellness Space, a brick-and-mortar sanctuary for holistic healing and community care. ✨ Currently accepting Fidelis, EmblemHealth and Healthfirst Managed Medicaid insurance plans. ✨

The best decision we made for our birth journey was getting a doula. Alanah provided unwavering support, knowledge, and a unique calming presence which truly made a difference. As a first time mother, I couldn’t have asked for better support, her presence was invaluable throughout my pregnancy, delivery and postpartum period. She exceeded all expectations and really showed up for me and my family during a very long labor. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to engage her services again. Highly recommend.
