Hailey Henry - Birth & Postpartum Doula

About Hailey

Hello! I'm Hailey Henry, a compassionate full-spectrum doula based in New York City, committed to providing inclusive and personalized support through all stages of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Inspired by my loved ones' journeys into parenthood and my passion for reproductive justice, I trained with Doula Training International and specialize in supporting diverse experiences, including high-risk pregnancies, neurodivergent parents, and advanced maternal age. I believe in empowering families with evidence-based, non-judgmental care, ensuring that every birthing person feels valued and heard. Outside of my practice, I enjoy strolls with my dog, Benji, and eating all over NYC.

The absolute best. I could not be more grateful that we found each other and she was able to make my fourth and last birthing experience better than I could have ever imagined. If you don’t think you need a doula, think again and hire this amazing woman!

Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits of having a doula?

Having a doula means having continuous, personalized support throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. Doulas provide emotional reassurance, expert guidance, and practical assistance, helping you make informed decisions and feel empowered. Studies show that doula support can lead to shorter labors, fewer interventions, and a more positive birth experience. I ensure you feel confident, calm, and in control, making your journey as smooth and comfortable as possible.

How do you work with my medical team during labor?

I collaborate closely with your medical team to ensure your birth preferences are respected and your voice is heard. My role is to complement their expertise by focusing on your comfort and emotional well-being. I advocate for your birth plan, help you understand your options, and ensure you feel supported throughout the process, while maintaining a positive and respectful relationship with your healthcare providers.

How does a complimentary meet & greet work?

The complimentary meet & greet is a no-obligation opportunity for us to connect virtually. During this time, we’ll discuss your expectations, preferences, and how I can support you through birth or postpartum. It’s also a chance for you to ask questions and see if we’re a good fit for working together. This initial conversation helps set the foundation for our partnership, ensuring that I’m aligned with your needs and birth goals.

What is a full-spectrum doula, and why choose one for your birth or postpartum?

As a full-spectrum doula, I support you through every stage of your reproductive journey—whether that’s pregnancy, birth, postpartum, or even navigating fertility challenges or loss. My role goes beyond just labor support; I’m here to offer personalized care that aligns with your needs and goals. By choosing a full-spectrum doula, you’ll have continuous, compassionate support to help you feel informed, empowered, and confident, no matter your journey. From crafting your birth plan to easing into postpartum life, I’m dedicated to making your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.
