Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Harvard, MA

Working with children and their families has been my life’s work, whether being a center-based teacher or in-home care. My biggest and greatest accomplishment has been becoming a mother to my two boys. Being a postpartum doula and lactation educator is another way to share in these magical times and help families adjust to life with a newborn. Having experienced vastly different prenatal, birth, and postpartum experiences with both of my sons, this lit the passion in me to help others during this time when things can be unexpected. Training through CAPPA (Childbirth & Postpartum Professional Association) solidified all the reasons why I want to continue to help support families and be a part of their amazing journey as their family grows. My hands-on experience, becoming a mother and working as a teacher, has shown me just how different each baby and family are. I look forward to sharing your unique beginning with you, creating success in your parenting journey.

Hi, I’m Kolby, a full spectrum doula! I come from a big family and have always loved birth & babies. I have been working with children for the past 10 years. In college, I studied nursing (my mom is a nurse), as well as reproductive health. As a doula, I love being able to care for babies and help families adjust to this new stage of life. It makes me happy knowing I’m making a difference in someone’s home. Building relationships and trust with families is important to me, something I take seriously as your doula. Prior to becoming a doula, I worked as an overnight newborn care specialist, nanny and infant teacher– supporting babies and collaborating with parents. I also LOVE working with multiples– I have worked with several multiples families including twins and triplets.

Hello everyone! I am a full spectrum doula and I currently have availability to take on birth clients. I am very passionate about working with birthing people and babies. I received my full spectrum doula certification from Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings in 2023 and I have been supporting families in this period of life for years. My experience is in doula care, infant day-care settings, nannying, non-profit work, and milk banking. My long term goal is to have an impact on marginalized communities. Doula care, especially support during the postpartum period, is seen as a luxury to many people, because it has become more inaccessible. I aim to serve all families and parents, especially those that are not always able to get the care that they need. I am also a certified breastfeeding specialist.

For more than 8 years, I have had the privilege of supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood, including more than 40 births. My approach is warm, calm, evidence-informed, and nonjudgmental. I believe there is no single “right” way to give birth, my role is not to tell you what your birth should look like, but to help you feel informed, prepared, heard, and supported as you make the choices that are right for you and your family. I have experience supporting unmedicated births, epidurals, inductions, VBACs, cesarean births, breastfeeding, postpartum adjustment, and childbirth education. My background in parenting consultation and Circle of Security also shapes the way I care for families. I see birth not as an isolated event, but as the beginning of a new chapter for the whole family. I love supporting parents as they build confidence, learn to understand their baby's needs, and find their own way into parenthood. I provide support in English, Portuguese, and Spanish and proudly serve families throughout the MetroWest area. My hope is that every family I work with feels respected, cared for, and never alone in the journey.

Birth is a transformative journey that deeply affects an individual on emotional, physical, and spiritual levels. I believe that preparing for and experiencing birth empowers and illuminates not only women, but everyone involved in the process.

Hi all. I'm Courtney, a certified Full Spectrum Doula in the Southern NH, Northern MA area. I started Leitay Birth and Life services with the goal to provide knowledge, care, and a nonjudgemental set of ears to every person and/or couple I support. I like to empower families by allowing them the space to ask any questions, talk through any uncertainties, and express all of their joys, hopes and fears. I know firsthand how wonderful the right care team can be, and also know how easy it is for individuals to feel overwhelmed or uncertain while navigating within the healthcare world. Birth and postpartum are some of the most delicate times we experience as human beings. While beautiful, awe inspiring and life changing, they are also times of great vulnerability. Human connection is one of the greatest gifts and I hope my connection with the families I support will provide some level of peace, confidence and strength as we walk through our journey together!

My name is Sarah Tucker and I’m a birth and postpartum doula that specializes in trauma informed care, as well as perinatal and postnatal mood disorders. Doula work, for me is very much sacred, heart work.

Hi! My name is Eleanor and I'm a birth doula excited to support you. I'm passionate about patient advocacy, making sure your needs are heard, and providing evidence-based information and support throughout pregnancy and labor.

Being a nanny, especially one who works with infants, is a privilege that I do not take lightly and I appreciate the chance to support families during this big change. Across my almost 10-year career, I have worked full-time in a daycare center and six private homes, primarily with newborns and toddlers. I find joy in creating spaces that engage my little ones, planning activities that incorporate all areas of children's development, and seeing the outcomes of those efforts. Outside of the traditional nanny role, I received my birth and post-partum certifications from DONA International in 2021. Since then, I have attended two births and continue to volunteer assisting families in need of support. In 2023 I completed my Newborn Care Specialist training via Newborn Care Solutions to deepen my understanding of newborns, especially those born prematurely and with additional medical needs

My mission is to empower and support families through their unique birth journeys by providing compassionate, knowledgeable, and personalized care. I am committed to creating safe, nurturing environments that honor each family’s values and choices, ensuring that every birth experience is positive and transformative.
