Chaya was amazing for us in the delivery room. My doctors were pushing for a c-section and she stayed respectful of what I wanted while still informing me of my options (Dr's really make it sound like you have no options but what they are suggesting). She advocated for me and made me feel like I had control of my labor.
My labor was stalled and I had been at 6cm for a long time and my baby wasn't in the best position. My Dr. wanted a c-section and I asked for just one more hour to see if I progressed any further. All of the Dr's and nurses left the room and Chaya took action. She went and got a nurse to come back and help her put me in different positions to see if we could get me ready. For the entire hour she directed the nurse on which positions they would do and when my Dr came back, I was 10cm with the baby in the correct position. My doctor was actually shocked and so was I!
Without Chaya I definitely would have had a c-section (something I was trying to avoid). I am very grateful for her and how she encouraged and informed me throughout my entire pregnancy and labor.

Recently hired Nova Birth&Wellness to be my Doula for labor and delivery. She was extremely passionate and very attentive to my needs and exceeded my expectations by ensuring that I had an unmedicated birth that my doctors told me that it isn’t possible but she made me never give up. Also, I had a c-section with my previous birth where I tried without a Doula. I highly recommend having Chaya as your Doula as she is very knowledgeable and passionate. I didn’t want no medication and she always responded quickly to my messages and provided excellent advice. Once I gave birth, she helped me with postpartum by providing me supplies I needed after birth and recommendations with my baby. I definitely couldn’t have accomplished having an unmediated VBAC without her especially being older patient.

I cannot put into words how grateful I am for the support, care, and love that Chaya provided during my pregnancy and birth. From the very first conversation, I felt heard, empowered, and truly cared for. My doula was a calming presence, always reassuring me and my partner and helping us confidently navigate every step.
When labor started, she was by my side, offering comfort measures, encouragement, and unwavering support. Her knowledge and experience made all the difference—I truly don’t know how we would have done it without her! She helped me advocate for myself and reminded me that my voice mattered in my birth journey.
Thanks to her, I felt strong, capable, and completely supported. Our birth was a beautiful experience, and I owe so much of that to her presence. If you are looking for a doula who is compassionate, knowledgeable, and wholeheartedly invested in your birth experience, look no further.
Forever grateful,

10/10 experience! Chaya was very helpful and supportive. She was everything I was looking for in a doula, especially as a first time mom. She is very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the process (both before & during my birth). She made sure that I was fully aware of my options, and my rights (I gave birth in a hospital setting). I felt very cared for and way more comfortable having her there in the room with me. She is also very kind and personable. I highly recommend her services, and I can say that I would definitely love to have her as my doula for future births!

Intrinsic Motherhood or Chaya is such a wealth of knowledge. As a midwife, I choose carefully who I want in the birth space, but after going to a birth with Chaya I cannot recommend her enough. She has so much experience, wisdom, and such a warm heart. I can see why my client felt so at ease with Chaya birthing at home, and she was able to have a beautiful waterbirth. Trust is so important in the birth space, and Chaya brings so many different tricks and tools to help labor but also a calming space for labor to go smoothly. If you are pregnant and want to be informed in your choices and have an informed experience through your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum I highly recommend Chaya! 💗

I highly recommend Chaya. She’s very passionate and proud of her services. She shares so much information and is there every step of the way.

Chaya is passionate, centered and is following her calling. Birth-work is not an easy calling but Chaya works through it all effortlessly. I have learned so much from Facebook business page and tiktok! It’s no easy feat to enlighten, educate, and care for pregnant people but with an individual like Chaya this challenge is met with creativity, and informed consent. This type of care and love is rare. Also check out the beautiful photography! Freedom and autonomy is the goal for Intrinsic Motherhood, so genuine! 💕 💫

Highly recommend Chaya and her services! She did the postpartum kit for my rainbow baby and I. You can feel not just the love, but her heart and soul being put into her work. She is also an amazing doula who will be there for you every step of the way.
I am beyond blessed to have been put into contact with her!
I promise you this, you will NOT be disappointed or sorry if you choose her and her services!

She is very passionate about serving the women in her community. If she cannot help you in person she offers virtual packages as well. She cares about the women she holds space for as a doula. She is a black owned business as well for anyone looking specifically for a doula of color she'd be a great option. She helps women with understanding the birth process and experience and educates them on their many options.

Chaya has been my “virtual” doula throughout my entire pregnancy. I am a first time mom and I just had my little man on September 10th and unfortunately had a very traumatic emergency C section birth. She was amazing during my pregnancy, always answering questions and helping me work through my concerns and fears. My goal was to do a natural birth and she is now helping me cope through my experience emotionally. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about this industry. I will definitely be using her services again for my pregnancies to come!
— Tiffany Riker
Chaya was at my home water birth and was so helpful! She held me up and braced me when I needed help! She was very calming and caring! Definitely glad I had her at my birth! She was also very willing to get in wherever needed! She was ready and gentle! I would recommend her being there to support you! 😊 did I mention she’s super sweet!
