I am a mother to a 5 year old and have loved children since I was a child myself. I have always been someone who enjoys helping people. I started on the path towards nursing, earning my Associate’s degree in Fall of 2022. After mostly completing my degree in summer of 2022, I realized my personality wouldn't shine in nursing. I am more empathetic and personable, which lead me to becoming a doula. I started with birth doula in August and it opened my eyes to my passion for birthwork. Shortly after, I took the postpartum doula workshop. That led me to also taking infant CPR, and earning a certified lactation support counselor as well. I am looking forward to sitting for the Lamaze CBE exam Fall of 2023. I have worked with families both prior to these certifications and currently and I can’t wait to explore and learn more

Hi my name is Ashley Whether you are a first time mom or a seasoned pro you want to be supported. My approach to working as a doula is to encourage you to be vocal about your needs while creating a safe environment. Birth is exciting but at times can be filled with a lot of uncertainty. As your doula we will work together to create your ideal birth plan but I also prepare you for alternative situations that might occur. We all have an idea of what we want our birth to look like whether it's in a hospital, a water birth, or just simply being surrounded by those we cherish the most. I want you to reach your goal. Our weeks together will be spent on creating that plan for you and I encourage those closest to you to be your support system as well. The goal is for a healthy mom and baby. At the end of your birthing journey I hope to leave you and your love ones feeling stronger and confident as you embark on this new journey of motherhood.

Hello! My name is Giselle Ramirez, and I am a certified Full Spectrum Doula and Lactation Educator located between NYC/NJ. As a doula, I aim to arm families with the advocacy, education, knowledge, reassurance, and the care they need to navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with confidence.

From struggles and triumphs, to tarot readings to affirm her through doubts, the experience of babies at the NICU, to holding two babies in our arms, along with late night feedings every two hours, I stood by her side. Witnessing the transformation of my sister’s hope into reality was one of the most profound experiences of my life. This was not my first time providing care for a mother and child, but it was the moment I knew I had found my calling.

Teresa (Terry Wong) Huang, MPH, MCHES, Doula For the past 16 years, I traveled the world as a public health advocate, but FAMILY led me to become a Doula! My sister found love later in life and was deemed high risk for having her first baby at 39 - after all my research, I learned that the best way to support her was to be her Doula.
