Hello I'm Victoria. I've been a postpartum doula for 8 years now. I love helping parents through the adjustment of adding to their family. I believe every little one just needs some time to get used to entering the world. Both child and parent need patience and care.

I had been a stay at home mother since the birth of my first son in 1995. Since then I had three more babies and loved being pregnant and giving birth. Every aspect of motherhood comes very natural to me and being a stay at home Mom had been the perfect fit. I live in Bethany, CT with my husband and children. As my children had grown and became more self-sufficient I realized that my energy and enthusiasm needed to be put to good use. I discovered doula services and the more I learned the more I realized that this was the perfect fit for me! I started my journey to become a doula in 2012. During that time I have become completely immersed in my work and continuing education. I have met so many wonderful people and to date I have participated in hundreds of amazing births. How lucky am I to get to experience the miracle of birth over and over again! Being pregnant, experiencing labor and birth are not medical conditions. I believe women should have a voice in how they would like to labor and birth their babies. I offer open minded and enthusiastic support for Parents to be. Whether you are planning a medicated birth, a C-section, VBAC or would like an unmedicated birth, I am there for you. As your birth doula I will help you achieve a calm and gentle birth. I will provide continuous emotional, physical and informational support. I will gently remind you of your birth plan. In labor it is easy to lose focus. I will help you with visualization and to stay as calm and relaxed as possible in between surges. I will provide comfort measures during surges. After the birth I will help you with skin-to-skin and baby self-latching if you plan on breastfeeding. I am trained in Childbirth Education, Spinning Babies and Evidence Based Birth. I also have a lot of experience with clients using Hypnobirthing techniques. I am looking forward to helping you achieve your dream birth.

With over 17 years of experience as a holistic healer and a deep passion for nurturing children and families, I bring a unique and comprehensive approach to my role as a Birth & Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specilalist. My career began as an infant-toddler teacher, where I developed expertise in early childhood development, providing care that supports both the physical and emotional growth of young children. Over the years, I’ve continued to specialize in infant care, serving as a private nanny for families and gaining hands-on experience in nurturing the needs of newborns. As a certified postpartum doula and newborn care specialist, I am well-versed in providing thoughtful, trauma-informed care to both babies and their parents during the most delicate early months. My background as a holistic healer, specializing in therapeutic massage, yoga, Breathwork, and meditation, informs my nurturing approach. I am dedicated to creating calm, balanced environments where children and families feel safe, supported, and cared for. I am committed to offering the highest level of service, fostering loving, mindful connections every step of the way. Outside of work, I live a full life filled with lots of travel, hiking with my two dogs, Louie and Lily, spending lots of quality time with my nieces and nephews and friends and family.

I am a seasoned certified, insured, CPR & 1st aid certified, professional doula. I have supported countless families during my career.

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.

As a birth + postpartum doula, childbirth educator, infant-feeding + lactation specialist, and IBCLC in training, Andreina has served the growing families of Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey since 2014. Her passion for birth work, expectant families, and newborns has been prevalent since she was a child- watching television series like TLC’s A Baby Story, which chronicled different birthing experiences throughout the United States. It was this initial peek into the sphere of birth in America that made Andreina aware of the disconnection that society had to an event so preternatural and fundamentally inherent such as birth. In her pursuit of restoring the sense of confidence and capacity in all birthing people, Andreina trained under renowned DONA International Doula trainer Rina Rios, and was subsequently selected to join the year-long Manhattan Birth training and mentorship program, led by doula turned home birth midwife, Tanya Wills CNM. Learning under these knowledgeable and influential women, Andreina gained invaluable knowledge that complemented her natural passion and innate skills in supporting expecting and newly postpartum individuals. Such skills and passion were further honed during Andreina’s own 72 hour home birth experience where she and her husband welcomed their son in 2022. With a bachelor of science from Iona University and five years of experience as a skilled pediatric phlebotomist, Andreina’s approach to childbirth, lactation, and postpartum melds the best of western medicine with the best of tried and true holistic care for all of her clients.
