Hi, I’m Christine! I support, guide, and nurture birthing families so they can give birth naturally and with confidence. Birth is a beautiful and transformative experience. Having a happy and positive mindset can greatly enhance the process. It is important to surround yourself with supportive people, including a doula who can provide emotional and physical support. As you embark on this majestic journey, trust that your body knows what to do and allow yourself to fully embrace the dream of bringing new life into the world.

My name is Natasha, pronouns she/her, mom, gardener, and life-long learner. My mission is so simple: to provide accessible and non-biased support for all people navigating journeys of lactation and infant feeding. I am a Toronto-based International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Lactation Counselor (CBI), completed the Mohawk College Breastfeeding Program, and I am a DONA trained postpartum doula. My doula training directly informs my feeding support style, allowing me to be present and engaged, never rushed, and always there for you. I have no agenda in support other than to help each client understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is not one right way to do it.

My name is Ekaterina Mariposa. I am a birth doula, perinatal psychologist, and lactation consultant with 10 years of doula practice and 13 years working as a psychologist. I work in Spain, Georgia, and internationally — online and in person. My clients are often navigating birth in an unfamiliar country, culture, or language — and I know that experience firsthand. I have lived across continents, and my practice grew from that intercultural reality. I speak English, Russian, and Spanish, and I bring both clinical training and deep personal understanding to every birth I attend. My role is not to lead, but to walk alongside — holding space for whatever this birth becomes. Here on Bornbir I am presenting my services online to support you remotely - if you live in the U.S. or Canada, and in person if you are in Europe.
