My nurturing nature stems from my personal experience as a mother, which compels me to be quite compassionate and driven in caring for others, and in addition, I enjoy listening and communicating with others while still maintaining a professional demeanor.

Christina was wonderful from the beginning! I connected with Christina in the beginning of my pregnancy and she was supportive and had my back right up until my baby was born. We had monthly calls that were always very informative and made me feel so supported. During our calls Christina never rushed me or made me feel like my questions were silly. She also answered and questions I had in between our scheduled calls. Christina understood my vision for my birth from the beginning and helped me transfer care in the middle of my pregnancy. Christina made me feel confident, heard, and prepared for my delivery. She also helped me navigate complications during my pregnancy and gave me the tools to advocate for myself. During my delivery she came while I was in active labor and jumped right in. She brought fake candles and aromatherapy for me which were so nice. I had a hard time once my water broke and she really helped me through it. I also had to make the decision of continuing with labor or getting a c-section and she talked it through with me and my boyfriend. I ended up getting a c-section and she stayed with me in the OR the entire time. She was also a huge support for my boyfriend who was extremely scared for me and our baby. She also took amazing pictures of my surgery and or me and my boyfriend during the c-section. I was pretty out of it and didn’t realize she was taking pictures which I’m so thankful for now. I also asked Christina if she would make prints with my placenta after the delivery. She was happy to do so and they came out beautiful! Christina stayed with me and my family until about 5 am to make sure we were all ok. Christina exceeded my expectations and truly made my pregnancy so wonderful. My birth did not go as I planned but her support truly made the difference for me. She has also been a huge support postpartum! She is a wonderful doula and human being and I highly recommend her for your pregnancy 💕

From the start of my career as a Physician Assistant, I was drawn to pediatrics and the mother-baby dyad. My PA journey kicked off on the pediatric ward at Jamaica Hospital in Queens, NY, where I was completely captivated by caring for children and families. Then, life brought me to Central NJ, where I had the opportunity to work in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, caring for some of the tiniest, most vulnerable patients. I became a board-certified lactation consultant and was thrilled to offer lactation consultations and make a real difference for new parents and babies. Bringing together my neonatal and pediatric medical experience with lactation and breastfeeding medicine has been incredibly rewarding! I’m proud to be board-certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants and the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners. But I didn’t stop there—I went on to get a Master's in Healthcare Administration from the University of Maryland, and I’ve continued to push myself to learn and grow in every way possible. I’ve trained in advanced bodywork techniques, including craniosacral therapy (CST) through the Upledger Institute and the Barnes Myofascial Release method. I’ve also attended the Oral Habilitation of the Breastfeeding Dyad course three times! Continuing education is a constant for me because I believe there’s always more to learn when it comes to helping families. I have 2 locations, in Edison and Brick, NJ and have focused on creating a collaborative practice which includes other specialists as well. Whether it’s kayaking, biking, or tending to our organic and medicinal garden, my family and I like finding new ways to stay active and connected with nature.
