Hi, I’m Tisa. I am a certifying labour and Postpartum Doula and proud mom of six beautiful children. I consider myself to be a compassionate person who strives to help you and your family navigate this new exciting chapter of your lives. I strongly believe it is my mission to help you have not only a positive postpartum journey but to help better assist and equip you with all the right tools for success. My passion for birth work began 20 years ago after the birth of my eldest son. Due to a series of events that could have very well crippled me only made me stronger. I was very fortunate to find access to many great regional programs and I met someone who not only poured wisdom into me at a young age but believed I could do great things in this field of work. I will never let my birth trauma define me, rather it has shaped me into who I am today. I am dedicated to providing assistance, support and spreading the message that you are not alone. My role as your doula is to provide continuous emotional, physical, and informational support. I am committed to empowering you to make informed decisions. The Postpartum stage isn't a race, it's about picking up the little pieces we may lose along the way. When I am not attending a birth or working overnight postpartum shifts, you can most likely find me in the comfort of my home surrounded by my family. My house is filled with laughter, playful banter, persistent chirps from my Lovebirds and Conure, yapping can be heard from the family Pomeranian; Mochi. I enjoy worship nights held by my church, reading webtoons, soaking up k-dramas and building miniature wooden puzzles and book-nooks.

My name is Jasmine. I’m currently a nurse at a peds office. I just recently did my Doula training class. I just basically want to be someone to support other women that don’t have the help or just need a little bit of extra hands when times get rough I have three kids of my own, so I understand what it can be like so I’m here to be that person when you need it some help and support

I am a trained birth + postpartum doula. I am also a lactation counselor and health educator originally from NJ, via NYC! I am new to the Rochester Area—I've been primarily a lactation counselor and postpartum doula since 2020, and first got trained with Ancient Song Doula Services in 2018. I attended my first birth in 2018 after 3+ years of health education. My family is from the Dominican Republic, I am fluent in Spanish, and conversational in French after 14 years of studying and understand Brazilian Portuguese a fair amount! I have dedicated my life to birth education and doula work, and hope to one day be a nurse midwife. I have a public health degree, a food handlers license and am about to renew my liability insurance which covers all but home births. I am LGBT competent and have assisted primarily single parents both by choice and by circumstance. I hope to end the birth parent mortality crisis in my lifetime and am so proud to be a doula! I am accepting postpartum and education clients only between now (May 2025) and October 1 2025!

I was drawn to becoming a birth doula because I saw firsthand the difference that informed, loving support can make. Having gone through my own birth trauma, I realized that a little help goes a long way during this tender phase. I also have a passion for breastfeeding and lactation education. I love to support families that are latching, pumping, bottle feeding, donating, etc.

Anna was amazing & her pay what you can afford was a God send. She supported me through the end of pregnancy, as well as a stress free, smooth labor & delivery. She advocates very well for her clients and I don't think I could ever go to anyone else! She's also very good with baby at the Post Visit! Here's to May 2026!

I’m Jessica, a birth doula with a deep passion for supporting women and families through one of the most powerful journeys of their lives: pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My own experience becoming a mother ignited this calling in me, and it grew even stronger during my second pregnancy. I know firsthand how transformative, overwhelming and beautiful this season can be, and you do not have to go through it alone. As your doula, I will be a dedicated and compassionate support system, someone who not only respects you but also walks beside you like a trusted friend throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I bring a calm presence, a good sense of humor, and a listening ear when you need it most. I am a hard worker who believes in your strength and am here to support you and your family every step of the way. I love seeing women empowered through this incredible experience and I would be honored to be a part of your team. I truly look forward to working with you.

Jessica brought so much positivity and peace to my birth. From helping me feel mentally prepared ahead of time to cheering me on in the moment, she made me feel happy, confident, and cared for every step of the way. She honored all my choices and created a truly loving, supportive space - it was everything I hoped for. Choosing a doula is such an important decision, and I’m so grateful I trusted Jessica with one of the most meaningful moments of my life.

I’m Elissa – a wife, mother, author, writer, and postpartum professional. As a postpartum doula and mentor, I work with parents before and after welcoming baby into their lives. Society pushes a lot of opinions onto new parents about how they should care for their newborn. I get to empower them to become the parents they want to be.

I support, guide, and nurture birthing families so they can give birth naturally and with confidence. Birth is a beautiful and transformative experience. Having a happy and positive mindset can greatly enhance the process. It is important to surround yourself with supportive people, including a doula who can provide emotional and physical support. As you embark on this majestic journey, trust that your body knows what to do and allow yourself to fully embrace the dream of bringing new life into the world.
