As a doula, my goal is to ensure that you are an active participant in decisions surrounding your labor rather than your labor happening to you. We will do this through education, support and advocacy. Looking forward to helping you achieve the birth of your dreams!

Working with Ashleigh was an amazing experience. She was knowledgeable on so many birth topics and took the time to review all of our options with my husband and I. She was warm and compassionate and guided me through a natural birth in a hospital environment. I would absolutely recommend her to my friends and family.

As a first generation Latina, I understand the hustle of proving we could do it all on our own. Since becoming a mother, I quickly realized that this new life isn’t meant to be done alone. As an advocate for postpartum support, my core foundation is to hold space, advocate for your needs and guide you to thrive into parenthood. My biggest invitation is to honor the traditional ways for your postpartum healing.

I’m Nubia, a mom of five teens & young adults. I’m an experienced certified birth doula CD(DONA), postpartum doula, parent educator, certified breastfeeding counselor (CLC), an integrative nutrition health coach (IIN) and a student midwife. Mothers deserve to be respected, heard and nurtured doing this major transition in life to becoming a mom, whether its for the first time or the 8th time! I’m a strong advocate for mothers and families birthing in all settings including hospital, home & birth centers. I respect the many choices in mothering and parenting. It's an honor to walk the path of mothering with women as they navigate the many options we have today. I strongly believe in the woman's ability to grow, birth and nourish her baby with her natural, innate abilities while also respecting the need or preference of medical support along the way. It's all about the balance of holistic & medical. My journey supporting women and families began in 2000. After birthing with midwives, I decided to develop a working relationship at the birth center where my children were born. At this free-standing birth center, I served on the board of directors and led support groups for the expectant families and breastfeeding moms. In 2012, my career as a doula took off as I volunteered my services for many families in my hometown, Washington, DC. In 2015, my family relocated and I began serving a diverse population throughout New York and New Jersey where I’m currently practicing, along with a team of equally skilled perinatal professionals. ​ On my spare time I enjoy relaxing on the Jersey Shore beaches, traveling internationally, cooking, dancing, spending time in nature, and enjoying quality time with my teenage and young adult children. I spent a couple of years living abroad and off the beaten path with my children and their dad. It was the most rewarding life experience to date. I plans to serve as a birthworker internationally, as well, so that I can merge my love for international travel and serving mothers.

Hello! My name is Amalia Ali and I am currently taking clients seeking Birth and Postpartum Doula Services. My care is centered around holistic practices in order to improve birth and postpartum outcomes for expecting mamas!

Recent review

Amalia provided her birth doula services to me in the summer of 2023. She was professional, timely, compassionate & easy to connect with. The package I chose allowed for assistance with my birthing plan, options to help induce labor, ways to encourage calmness during the chaos of the different stages of labor. Amalia was available to chat when I needed her, provided on call services in my high risk pregnancy and became a trusted source when I needed her. For my first experience with a Doula, Amalia made it worth it. I finally experience a labor and delivery experience that was filled with support and positive energy! So grateful to have found Amalia and experience her knowledge of birth and her beautiful spirit.

Simone has been holding space for expecting and postpartum families for over 10 years. Birth has a powerful way of healing and transforming you, and her first birth did just that. The ability to have 2 empowered births the way she wanted, gave light to the need for advocacy, education and doula support amongst the birthing community, especially black families. Simone is a mother, doula, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, childbirth educator and infant sleep educator. She has been teaching and mentoring doulas along the way and excited to dive deeper into holding the hands of the next generation of birth workers.

Services include a comprehensive Client Intake and interview meeting. Two prenatal visits (preferably one in your home), birth plan support and planning, materials and resources created for your keeping, continuous support from active labor through the hour+ after your birth, and one postpartum visit at your home. I’ve been a middle and high school teacher and administrator for 22+ years and bring a wide breadth of experience in educating you specifically how you need it, including tailored materials and resources. I believe staying in contact and feeling connected, especially during the third trimester is helpful and can be comforting. Being informed, knowledgeable, and empowered in your decisions can truly have amazing effects on your, and your partner’s, birthing experience. The more you know, the less you fear. This is your birth. I’m here to support you, how you best feel supported.

Marisa was an AMAZING postpartum doula! She was knowledgeable about so many things and even helped us with nursing, which was a struggle for us. She also made the best food that would sustain us for a week! It was so nice to have nourishment when we really had no time to care for ourselves in the early weeks. Her presence truly made our lives easier. Our baby and our dog also LOVED her - she really became like family! I recommend her so so highly.

I set out to become a birth doula over 25 years ago after becoming a massage therapist, but I put this career goal on hold until my children became adults. I finally achieved my goal and became certified as a birth doula this year. As a seasoned massage therapist, I offer a broad understanding of a person's physical and emotional needs, especially during this special time as you prepare your body for the birth of your baby.

Recent review

I had such an amazing birth experience with Elyse! My first labor and delivery were really tough, it was traumatic and ended in a C-section. It actually took me years to even think about having another baby because I was so afraid of going through that again. Multiple doctors told me I’d probably need another C-section, that because I pushed for so long the first time, a vaginal birth wasn’t likely. It left me feeling broken and like my body just couldn’t do it. When I finally decided I wanted to try for a VBAC, I knew I needed extra support and that’s when I found Elyse. She was the first doula I interviewed, and honestly, after that first conversation, I knew she was the one. She really listened to my story and my fears, and right away she helped me believe that my body wasn’t broken and that a vaginal birth was possible for me. Throughout my pregnancy, Elyse was amazing. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and always made me feel calm and supported. She answered all my questions, showed me exercises to prepare for labor, and constantly reminded me that I was capable and strong. When I went into labor, she was there for me right away. She helped set such a peaceful, calming vibe in the hospital room with music, lights, diffuser, etc. She massaged me, helped me get into different positions, advocated for me, and reminded me to take my time and make decisions that felt right for me. She supported me without judgment and kept me grounded the whole time. Because of Elyse, I had the redemptive birth experience I’d been dreaming of, a successful VBAC! She also made sure my husband felt included and confident throughout the whole process. Even after birth, she checked in on me and connected me with great postpartum resources. I seriously can’t thank her enough. She’s knowledgeable, calming, and truly cares about her clients. I wouldn’t have had my dream birth without her!
