Providence, Rhode Island

Danielle Forte (she/her)

Danielle is a DONA International trained Labor and Birth Doula, NICU-Informed Doula, and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. She is currently accepting birth clients through her doula practice, Wholehearted Birth Support. For the past decade, advocacy and empowerment have been at the heart of Danielle's clinical practice. This foundation led to a natural transition into birth work. Danielle arrived at birth work driven by a passion for supporting families with complex fertility journeys, providing trauma-informed birth support and increasing access to LGBTQIA2S+ affirming doula care. Danielle also cares deeply about improving perinatal mental health experiences and access to care, supporting NICU families, and facilitating full family wellness through offering postpartum planning guidance. Her approach to doula care is grounded in deep respect for her clients autonomy and choices, creating authentic connections, and providing compassionate evidence-based support. Pregnancy and birth can be unpredictable and expectant parents may find themselves in uncharted territory. Danielle provides a calm and steady presence and attuned, collaborative support throughout your pregnancy journey and birth experience. Danielle works in concert with the birthing parent and their support system to understand their birth preferences, concerns, and their hopes for their birth experience. She deeply honors the unique and personal journeys that bring people to parenthood, and seeks to understand her client's history prior to birth to inform the individualized care they would benefit from during labor and delivery. Advanced training in perinatal mental health and perinatal loss allow Danielle to not only provide supportive care during pregnancy and birth, but to create a holding environment through any pregnancy outcome. Times of great transition are deserving of tender support and care. Danielle's utmost hope is that time spent together leaves you feeling connected to needed support and with memories of an empowering birth experience.

Ashley Geary

Ashley's journey into the realm of motherhood was marked by challenges, particularly with postpartum anxiety following the birth of her son. The experience, not aligning with her envisioned childbirth, significantly impacted her postpartum transition. This prompted Ashley to delve into the intricacies of childbirth, recognizing a pressing need for maternal support during both the birthing process and postpartum period.Motivated by her own transformative experience, Ashley decided to pursue a homebirth with her daughter, finally obtaining the birthing and postpartum support she had sought. This pivotal moment inspired her to undergo comprehensive training as a birth and postpartum doula. Ashley's commitment to her role is evident in her diverse training background, including certifications from CAPPA, Newborn Mothers Collective, and Birth Arts International. Ashley is currently undergoing training to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and is actively accepting clients under the guidance of her mentor. As part of her commitment to supporting mothers, Ashley extends special discounts for those opting for homebirth and for repeat birth clients.

We had a great experience with Ashley! She was always available and able to help during both the prenatal and postpartum periods. Her questions were thoughtful and helped me think through our priorities, understand my anxieties, and offer great suggestions for both the birth and postpartum periods. Ashley was at my birth, which was really fast so there was not much time for anything, but she was great at helping my husband know how to be helpful during the birth and offered really good massage and lactation support. She knew my birth preferences front to back and was helpful as the go-between when necessary. She were especially good at calming me down while I was waiting to go into labor and offering tips to activate labor. She is a wealth of knowledge and a fabulous support system during such a vulnerable time.
