Hi! My name is Madelyn, and I am a Certified Full Spectrum Doula. For as long as I can remember I have been interested in becoming a birth worker. I have several years of experience in infant/newborn care, as well as postpartum assistance and overnight care. I work as a nanny and have loved the career I have established for myself, but am ready to move forward in providing care to mamas and newborns during the prenatal, labor, and postpartum stages. I recently got to experience this with one of my nanny families which ultimately encouraged me to pursue this career professionally. The experience in caring for a postpartum mother to twins has really provided me with knowledge in doing the same for many others.

Hello families! My name is Sarrah Hernandez, and I'm an Ayurvedic birth and postpartum doula and Ayurvedic women's health consultant based in Kapolei, Hawaiʻi. At the heart of my work is a commitment to building meaningful relationships with the women and families I serve. I believe pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood are profound rites of passage and not simply medical events to be managed, but transformative seasons that deserve to be nurtured with presence, knowledge, and compassionate support. My role is to help re-center women in their matrescence journey while serving as a bridge for families seeking care that extends beyond the clinical model and honors the whole person. As an integrative health practitioner, I blend evidence-informed education with traditional wisdom and nurturing practices that have often been lost in modern maternity care. I walk alongside women throughout pregnancy, offering personalized health and wellness guidance, weekly one-on-one prenatal yoga sessions, support as they adapt to the physical, emotional, and identity changes of pregnancy, and family-centered birth and postpartum preparation. After birth, I provide restorative Ayurvedic postpartum care focused on nourishing, protecting, and caring for the mother during the first 45 days as she recovers and transitions into motherhood. I recently moved to Oʻahu in February 2026 with my husband, who was born and raised here, and it is truly an honor to serve the women, babies, and families of Hawaiʻi who resonate with this relationship-centered, holistic model of care.

I believe every family and every baby is unique, so I adapt my care to each family’s individual needs, routines, values, and parenting preferences.

Hi! I’m a labor + postpartum doula and lactation support educator. I have great experience with military and local families on the island of Oahu, Hawaii! I find joy in serving new moms as they venture into motherhood, educating them about labor, birth and postpartum!

Aloha! My name is Tyra Fonseca-Smith, born and raised in Puʻuloa, Oʻahu and I currently reside in the ahupuaʻa of Aiea, on the island of Oʻahu with my ‘ohana. I am a wife and māmā of 2 daughters, Emalani & Kapuahālaʻi. I love spending time with my ʻohana at the beach, eating delicious foods, and hula. From a young age I loved babies and taking care of others and I have had the opportunity to grow up around amazing women and mothers. I began my birth work experience as a lactation counselor in 2017 and after the birth of my hiapo (eldest child) I was inspired to become a Birth and postpartum doula. ʻAʻole pau ka ʻike i ka hālau hoʻokahi; knowledge does not come from one school. - Mary Kawena Pukui (ʻŌlelo Noʻeau) From my personal and educational experiences I see the importance of culturally relevant and relatable supportive care during the sacred time of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. When mothers are treated with the care they deserve, keiki and the entire ʻohana benefit from it. Being grounded in generational traditions, new traditions, ʻāina (land), and strong pilina (connections) are also vital during this time and it is an honor to serve families through that journey. As an Indigenous Lactation Counselor, birth doula (DONA trained) and Postpartum Doula. I aim to support and uplift ʻohana in their birth, breastfeeding and postpartum experiences. I truly believe that a supported birth and postpartum experience has positive impacts on this and future generations to come.
