Hi everyone, I am Rachel, a Full-Spectrum Doula. I am a Queer Woman with a deep passion for reproductive justice. I'm a warm, empathetic, and bubbly person who thrives on matching people’s energy and meeting them exactly where they are in their birth and postpartum journey. I love supporting and empowering individuals to have the birth experience that aligns with their needs, desires, and values. I perform as a dancer in the Boston area and love learning about people’s favorite forms of self-expression. I encourage movement throughout pregnancy and postpartum and offers fun, easy movements inspired by my dance experience. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Human Service Studies from Elon University and have worked a variety of roles, from waitressing and gymnastics coaching to being a domestic violence advocate, and a Doula. Looking forward to connecting:)

My passion for supporting, educating, and empowering women giving birth stems from my desire to combat the maternal and infant health crisis that disproportionately impacts the birth experiences and outcomes of Black women. It is my goal to help all birthing people: learn to trust in their bodies; learn to trust themselves to make informed decisions about and advocate for the birth experience they desire; and, have culturally appropriate and non-clinical emotional, physical, and informational support before, during, and after birth. I welcome you to schedule a free, 30-minute consultation to help us get to know one another, decide if we're a good fit and so that I can also answer any questions you may have.

Hi! My name is Yasmina. As a DONA-certified Birth Doula based in Greenwich, CT, I offer my clients evidence-based and curated support before, during, and after labor. From helping you make your birth plan that ensures you communicate your cultural, medical, and personal preferences to your care provider during labor, to working you through breathwork during those tough contractions, my aim is to make my clients' births special, sacred times that reflect their values and unique personalities. I am also trained in Spinning Babies techniques, lactation support, and Baby and Child First Aid. I offer my clients a very hands-on approach to birth support. I take my job as a birth doula very seriously and give my all to every birth I attend - emotionally and physically.

I am a certified, insured, CPR & 1st aid certified, seasoned professional doula. I have supported countless families during my career. Many families have used my services for each of their babies and referred me to their family and friends. I believe a doula should offer compassionate flexible support throughout the ever changing needs and phases of care. It brings me joy to be doing what I love and what has come naturally, after raising my 4 children, including singletons and multiples born via normal spontaneous vaginal delivery and a Cesarean section.

This amazing journey began over 25 years ago, unbeknownst to me the remembering had begun- learning, practicing, and teaching about women’s empowerment, nutrition, energy medicine, herbal medicine, holistic, skincare, natural health and reproductive wellness – Fertility, Ante-Partum, Birth & Post-Partum (Full Spectrum-miscarriage, stillborn, abortion, adoption) Wholistic Doula.

I bring warmth, love, and extensive knowledge to each family as well as their providers. I bring strong advocacy skills while reducing fear and fostering confidence. I also provide lactation consultations and all modalities of massage including prenatal and postpartum.

Although I didn’t know it then, my journey towards becoming a doula began nearly 15 years ago with the birth of my first child. My labor and birth experience was far from empowering and while I was overjoyed to have my son, I always wished things had gone differently- that I had been listened to when I tried to assert myself, that I had been given alternative pain management options when I said I didn’t want an epidural, that the nurses and doctors had explained what they were doing and given me choices before just going ahead and doing it. I always wished that I had felt more in control in that delivery room. Flash forward 14 years to the birth of my second child, and things went exactly as I could have hoped for largely in part due to the team of amazing people I chose to surround myself with. I switched to a Midwife group that took the time to listen to me and honor all of my wishes; I chose a birthing center where I knew I would have plenty of options, but still have the safety and security of a hospital and NICU nearby should something go wrong; and I hired my doula! She made me feel safe, secure, listened to, and protected. She was there as my advocate (though I never had to use her as such because my Midwife was so amazing), she was there as a shoulder to lean on, and she made sure my wife and I had all that we needed during my labor and the birth of my daughter. Between kiddo number one and kiddo number two, a lot happened- 14 years worth of happenings! During that time in-between, I owned and operated Bloom Yoga Fitness Studios in Southington, CT. I taught thousands of hours of yoga- hundreds of them to pregnant clients. And I also became a Licensed Massage Therapist certified in Pregnancy Massage. My personal birth experiences, my decade of yoga teaching, my time as a massage therapist all led me to where I am today. I am now a Birth Doula working with clients in Hartford, New Haven and Middlesex counties. I still teach yoga and perform massage and you’ll see many of my doula offerings include yoga, meditation, and massage. I am passionate about birthing people making informed choices that feel right for them and it’s an honor to standby my clients as they take the amazing journey that is labor and birth.

My name is Molly and I am the owner and instructor of Peaceful and Prenatal. As a perinatal yoga instructor, it is my goal to guide mamas find their breath, balance, and strength during pregnancy and postpartum to feel empowered and in control of their journey. My personal yoga journey started about 10 years ago and led me to taking my yoga teacher training. Along the way, I also become a Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher (RPYT) when I realized there was a lack of perinatal options near me. Since then, I have become heavily involved in perinatal education to provide mamas the best tips, resources, and explanations I can to guide them to feeling empowered during all 4 trimesters.

My name is Lilly Serrano, I am a bilingual (Spanish) birth doula from CT. I am engaged to an amazing partner, and a mama to a beautiful daughter and two fur babies. I was raised around a village of empowering women and mothers, and that is all I ever aspired to be in life. I am here to remind expecting mamas that they can achieve anything and everything they set their minds to, and hopefully make that journey feel a little less overwhelming along the way!
