Hello love! My name is Heidi, I was raised in Queens, NY & living in Florida since 2008. I love coffee, my camera, books, nature walks with my husband and cuddles with our fur baby Leo. When I am not cuddling with Leo I spend a lot of my time nurturing my deeply growing passion for my work as a birth doula & photographer, My heart's calling is mothering the mother during the threshold that IS giving birth. I bring a grandmother presence to the room, I am here in loving service to you, to be present and guide you because birth can be challenging, but it can also be extremely magical and deeply empowering. I can remember My first encounter with Birth as a photographer and it was that moment I knew how precious and significant birth is, from then on all I have wanted is to be a part of those Magical moments with my camera or/and as a birth doula. Being a doula is being in service to the Mother-and it would be my honor to be chosen and given the opportunity to cross paths during one of the most life changing altering experiences a woman can experience and that is YOU now- how amazing! congratulations! life is a Miracle and it is you ✨! <3 #letsd🌀ulathistogether ♾

Heidi was absolutely amazing! From our first meeting to the birth, she was incredible helpful and knowledgeable. She provided us with so many helpful tools to get us through the birth and supported us every step of the way. She never made us feel rushed and always gave special attention to our older daughter. She was so great with her which was so helpful! She never overstepped any boundaries and was always there when we needed her. I am beyond grateful that we had Heidi as part of our team for Lily's birth! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula.

As first time parents, I had no idea what to expect when it came to the labor process. After speaking with my midwife, choosing a doula was something we decided to do; but that too, was scary to me. Then we came across Chelsea & the search stopped! From the first message interaction, to our very last visit together, both my husband and I always felt supported & heard. Chelsea brings such a positive & calming presence every room she’s in. During the labor process, she was my voice when I didn’t know what to say and my pain relief when I didn’t know what should be next. If you’re looking for a kind, compassionate, intelligent doula, look no further! I went searching for a doula and my family came out having a forever friend. Thank you Chelsea!

honestly don’t even know where to begin because words cannot express how grateful I am for Peaceful Passages Birthing Support Center. As a first-time mom, I was excited about having my baby, but I was also terrified of labor and delivery. I had so many questions, fears, and moments when I doubted myself. From our very first conversation, I knew I had found the right team. My doula was absolutely AMAZING! She was patient, compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about me and my baby. I never felt like just another client. She checked on me throughout my pregnancy, answered my endless questions, and helped me feel prepared for something I had never experienced before. But it was during my labor that I truly realized how blessed I was to have her. There were moments when I felt like I couldn’t do it anymore. She never left my side. She held my hand, helped me breathe through contractions, applied counterpressure, encouraged me, and reminded me how strong I was. When things became overwhelming, she was my calm in the middle of everything. She was also incredible with my husband. She guided him on how to support me and made sure he felt included in the entire experience. What really stood out was how knowledgeable and professional she was with the nurses and doctors. She helped me understand my options, encouraged me to ask questions, and made sure I felt heard without ever making me feel pressured. After my baby arrived, the support didn’t just stop. She continued checking on us and making sure I was doing okay physically and emotionally. I genuinely believe my birth experience would have been completely different without Peaceful Passages. This wasn’t just a doula showing up to do a job. This was someone who genuinely cared about me, my baby, and my entire birth experience. If you’re pregnant and wondering whether hiring a doula is worth it, PLEASE do yourself a favor and contact Peaceful Passages Birthing Support Center. I would choose them a thousand times over. They gave me something I will cherish forever: a birth experience where I felt safe, supported, empowered, and never alone.

Инара- приятный в общении человек и хороший специалист своего дела. С первой минуты знакомства с ней было максимально комфортно общаться. Она уточняла как я хочу чтоб прошли роды, какую музыку хочу и даже какие аромасвечи, то, о чем я даже и не задумывалась, но это добавило комфорта и спокойствия в процессе родов. У Инары с собой был целый чемодан всевозможных атрибутов, помогающих расслабиться и снять боль во время схваток. Также она помогала проживать схватки, делая массаж поясницы, объясняла как правильно дышать и что делать во время потуг, помогла правильно приложить малыша к груди и сделала фото и видео процесса родов, по моей просьбе. Когда начались схватки, Инара приехала за мной, и подъехав к госпиталю мне показалось, что схватки были ложными. Тогда мы решили поехать на пляж, сделать пару упражнений и прогуляться, чтоб понять реально ли нам пора в госпиталь, или это ложная тревога. Это был незабываемый вечер на пляже перед родами и потом отличная поддержка во время родов, что бесценно! Особенно, когда ты в чужой стране с не самым лучшим знанием языка, такая поддержка необходима, очень рада, что в такой важный момент Инара была со мной.
