Hi! My name is Heather and I’m a birth & postpartum doula out of Bellingham, MA. I have 2 young kids and was inspired in my own pregnancies and deliveries to become a family support worker during the incredible transition of welcoming home a new baby. My number one goal is advocating and educating the families I work with from day 1 so everyone can have the childbirth experience they deserve. I have been working as a doula for over a year and have served 7+ families as a doula and newborn care specialist during that time.

As a certified postpartum doula and certified lactation counselor since 2022, I have guided dozens of families as they've grown their families. Birth and new parenthood can be unpredictable, and I am here as a trusted resource to help you navigate the experience.

My goal is to provide unbiased, evidence-informed guidance so that parents can confidently make decisions that feel right for them, whatever they may be. I’m honored to be a part of such a personal and intimate experience for the clients I serve. In my free time I enjoy long walks my dog, Frank, cooking up a storm for friends, and tending to my garden. Prior to becoming a doula, I received my BA in modern Middle Eastern history from Yale University and worked in political and nonprofit consulting.

I am a certified birth& postpartum doula, as well as CPR& first aide. After having 3 babies of my own, I knew this is exactly the career for me. I know how lonely and tiring the postpartum journey can be, and that’s what I am here for! I’d love to be your extra support. My goal is to actively listen to your needs and wants, and to create a healthy sleep schedule for your baby and you. Rest is very important in the fourth trimester. I can give you resources, suggestions, and advice when needed. I will be there to do some chores as well such as cleaning bottle and pump parts, and doing the baby’s laundry. I’m excited to learn all about your plan, and be there by your side!

Although I didn’t know it then, my journey towards becoming a doula began nearly 15 years ago with the birth of my first child. My labor and birth experience was far from empowering and while I was overjoyed to have my son, I always wished things had gone differently- that I had been listened to when I tried to assert myself, that I had been given alternative pain management options when I said I didn’t want an epidural, that the nurses and doctors had explained what they were doing and given me choices before just going ahead and doing it. I always wished that I had felt more in control in that delivery room. Flash forward 14 years to the birth of my second child, and things went exactly as I could have hoped for largely in part due to the team of amazing people I chose to surround myself with. I switched to a Midwife group that took the time to listen to me and honor all of my wishes; I chose a birthing center where I knew I would have plenty of options, but still have the safety and security of a hospital and NICU nearby should something go wrong; and I hired my doula! She made me feel safe, secure, listened to, and protected. She was there as my advocate (though I never had to use her as such because my Midwife was so amazing), she was there as a shoulder to lean on, and she made sure my wife and I had all that we needed during my labor and the birth of my daughter. Between kiddo number one and kiddo number two, a lot happened- 14 years worth of happenings! During that time in-between, I owned and operated Bloom Yoga Fitness Studios in Southington, CT. I taught thousands of hours of yoga- hundreds of them to pregnant clients. And I also became a Licensed Massage Therapist certified in Pregnancy Massage. My personal birth experiences, my decade of yoga teaching, my time as a massage therapist all led me to where I am today. I am now a Birth Doula working with clients in Hartford, New Haven and Middlesex counties. I still teach yoga and perform massage and you’ll see many of my doula offerings include yoga, meditation, and massage. I am passionate about birthing people making informed choices that feel right for them and it’s an honor to standby my clients as they take the amazing journey that is labor and birth.

As a full-spectrum doula, I see birth as more than a physical event. It is a sacred and transformative rite of passage. My care is rooted in faith, mindfulness, education, and spiritual wisdom, creating space for clients to slow down, tune in, and trust the bodies God has given them. I support the whole person, mind, body, and spirit, through breathwork, affirmations, prayer, and grounded presence. Whether during pregnancy, labor, or postpartum, I help clients move through each phase with clarity, peace, and confidence, while honoring God’s presence throughout the journey.

About Linda I am a Postpartum Doula, a lactation counselor and a Newborn Care Specialist. I care for and support new parents and their families after the birth of their baby/babies. I offer infant care, education and guidance, breastfeeding and bottle feeding support, emotional and educational support, cooking, errands and more. This is a very exciting, yet very overwhelming transition in your life and I will be there to guide you through the first 6-12 weeks. The need for support after birth is great. Many families live very far away from the members of their family that could offer help and guidance. If they do live close, chances are they work or have very busy lives themselves. Many partners have to go back to work after just a couple of days or a week off. Having a postpartum doula reduces the chance of depression and increases your positive nursing experience.

My name is Polina Westcott. I am a birth doula serving New Haven, Middlesex, Hartford and Litchfield counties. I believe that women's bodies are built to birth, and I work with mamas to help them achieve the best possible outcomes in their birth experience. I believe that while medical interventions are sometimes necessary and can be life-saving, they are often overused. Since having my two boys (both home births) I have become obsessed with all things birth. I have a podcast about pregnancy, birth, postpartum and parenting. I love helping mamas in any way I can to have a great experience in their journey into and through motherhood.

Ashley's journey into the realm of motherhood was marked by challenges, particularly with postpartum anxiety following the birth of her son. The experience, not aligning with her envisioned childbirth, significantly impacted her postpartum transition. This prompted Ashley to delve into the intricacies of childbirth, recognizing a pressing need for maternal support during both the birthing process and postpartum period.Motivated by her own transformative experience, Ashley decided to pursue a homebirth with her daughter, finally obtaining the birthing and postpartum support she had sought. This pivotal moment inspired her to undergo comprehensive training as a birth and postpartum doula. Ashley's commitment to her role is evident in her diverse training background, including certifications from CAPPA, Newborn Mothers Collective, and Birth Arts International. Ashley is currently undergoing training to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and is actively accepting clients under the guidance of her mentor. As part of her commitment to supporting mothers, Ashley extends special discounts for those opting for homebirth and for repeat birth clients.

Good afternoon ladies. I chose to become a doula because I truly love being able to support women during one of the most important moments of their lives. My background in healthcare and maternity care has shown me how much of a difference it can make when a woman feels heard, supported, respected, and reassured. I want women to feel like they have someone in their corner—someone who will listen to them, support their choices, answer their questions, and remind them of their strength. I want every woman to feel seen, heard, and supported throughout her pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey, rather than feeling like she has to go through it alone. Being able to comfort and encourage families during such a life-changing experience is something I’m genuinely passionate about. I also want to give back to my community by providing compassionate and culturally sensitive support in English, French, and Haitian Creole. For me, being a doula is more than just a job—it’s about making women feel empowered, cared for, and truly supported when they need it most. ❤️

She will always advocate for your birthing preferences to be respected and is committed to showing up with a kind ear, an open heart, and caring hands to serve new families and their babies. Above all, she will hold space for your birth to feel beautiful, safe, intimate, and sacred, always with a dash of humor!
