Hello everyone! My name is Soleil Townes, I am the owner of Evangeline Birthing Services, which provides full-spectrum doula services to those in select counties in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I have a passion for helping queer families of color have beautiful birth experiences and receive the support they need whether that is grief support or adoption support. I fell in love with birth work during my years at Montclair State University where I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Family Sciences and Human Development. While there, I took a class called “Medical Humanities” where I learned the different health disparities different ethnicities have faced in our health care system. What stood out to me was how Black birthing persons have such high birthing mortality rates. And upon further research, I stumbled upon the beauty and importance of birth work. I have always had a passion for helping queer families of color, and this shines through my work. I have over 5 years of childcare experience before becoming a doula. When I'm not working, I spend my free time expanding my hobbies: video games, reading, attending comic and anime conventions, community service, watching cartoons, and creating handmade jewelry.

Hello! My name is Miriam Samassa, and I’m a licensed nurse with 2 years of experience in Emergency Room nursing. I’m now transitioning into in-home infant care and nanny work, where I can continue supporting families with the calm, attentive care I provided in the hospital setting.

In the ER, I often worked with infants and young children—developing not only clinical skills but also the empathy, communication, and attentiveness essential to caring for little ones and their parents. I am CPR and First Aid certified, familiar with infant cues and developmental stages, and deeply committed to providing a safe, restful environment for families adjusting to life with a new baby. I’m especially passionate about helping parents feel supported during those challenging overnight hours. I’m currently seeking overnight or part-time positions in Philadelphia and surrounding areas, and I would be honored to bring my medical experience and nurturing approach into your home. Thank you for considering me — I look forward to connecting!

As a certified Newborn Care Specialist, Postpartum Doula, and Sleep Consultant, I support families through the newborn and postpartum period with individualized, evidence-based care. My childcare journey began in 2015 through volunteer work in Brazil, where I cared for children in orphanages, pediatric cancer hospitals, and low-income daycare centers. After moving to the United States in 2016, I built my career caring primarily for babies, with the majority of my experience focused on newborns and infants. In 2022, I completed my Newborn Care Specialist training, further strengthening my expertise in newborn and postpartum care, and have continued expanding my education in postpartum support and infant sleep. Throughout my career, I have provided overnight newborn care, feeding support, promoted healthy sleep habits, established age-appropriate routines, and cared for premature newborns and multiples.

In addition to my hands-on experience, I am certified in Pediatric CPR, AED, and First Aid.
