Her passion for childbirth began in her birthing her four children within five years and learning the amazing power of the mind, soul, and body in physiologic birth and thereafter. Becoming a DONA trained Doula has given her the professional skills and resources to help other birthing people and their partner(s) awaken and tune into this power. As your Doula, she is honored to hold space for you and meet you where you are along your reproductive journey. She will provide emotional, informational, and physical support and hold your hand as you learn to advocate for your preferences in what is the most personal and sacred time in your life. By encouraging you to feel confident, fully supported, in control of your choices, and well equipped with the tools and comfort measures, her goal is to help you optimize any path your birth takes. She especially wants to do all she can to educate the community about the power of birth support, increase access to these evidence based services, and work with BBIPOC and trans and queer birthing people who often experience trauma and inequitable care along their gestational journey. As a Latinx Doula, she is a strong proponent of reclaiming and honoring the cultural roots of birthing communities and their traditional practices. Elizabeth is bilingual in Spanish.

I’m Erica Castillo a full-spectrum doula, body literacy educator, and folk herbalist walking the path toward becoming a home birth midwife. I offer culturally rooted care across the reproductive spectrum, including birth, postpartum, fertility, menstruation, and reproductive health support. My practice weaves together ancestral knowledge and contemporary support, grounded in the traditional healing ways of my African and Taíno ancestors. In many traditions, midwives were more than just birth attendants, they were community healers, herbalists, bodyworkers, and spiritual guides. That legacy shapes how I show up in this work: with reverence, skill, and a deep commitment to care that uplifts the whole person. For the last 8 years, I’ve supported families with a blend of intuition, evidence-based tools, and heart. If you’re looking for a grounded, culturally aligned doula who honors your intuition and uplifts your experience, and advocates for you, I’d be honored to support!

I’m Clarissa Alves, born on September 21, 2001, in the heart of the Bronx, New York. Now, I live in New Jersey with my wonderful husband, who is my rock, and our two wild, magical toddler daughters who remind me daily of the beauty and chaos of life. I’m a wife, a mother, and a lover of life. My husband is my anchor, my safe place, and the steady rhythm in the background of all my adventures. Our daughters, with their boundless energy and free spirits, have taught me to live fully in the present, to surrender to the natural flow of life, and to find joy in the smallest moments. They are my greatest teachers. When I’m not nurturing my family, I lose myself in the things that bring me joy. Music, movies, arts, and crafts have always been a part of my life. I have always been drawn to creativity and expression, finding beauty in handmade things and stories that move the soul. I am also deeply passionate about human rights, especially intactivism, children’s well-being, and the protection of reproductive and birth rights. I believe in the power of informed choice, respect for bodily autonomy, and the right of every person to receive the care and support they deserve. Motherhood has been a transformative journey for me, filled with love, loss, and incredible resilience. Both of my daughters are rainbow babies, born after the pain of miscarriage. Through the heartbreak of recurring pregnancy loss, I learned just how sacred and fragile life is. My pregnancies were further complicated by hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), a debilitating illness that goes far beyond morning sickness. It left me drained, struggling, and often feeling like I had lost control of my own body. But I wasn’t alone. My doula was there, holding space for me when I felt powerless, reminding me that even in the hardest moments, my body carried deep wisdom. She supported me through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, offering unwavering care, comfort, and knowledge. Because of her, I became the first in my family to experience a vaginal birth and the first to breastfeed exclusively. Breastfeeding became such an important part of my journey that while nursing my own baby, I was able to donate over 10,000 ounces of breast milk to nourish others. The love and guidance I received through my own experiences shaped my path forward. I knew I wanted to offer that same support to others, to walk alongside birthing people through the most raw, sacred, and transformative moments of their lives. Each birth I have attended has only deepened that calling, solidifying my passion for this work. There is nothing more humbling than witnessing the strength, power, and vulnerability of birth, and it is an honor to be a part of that journey.

I started in this field as a nanny and thrived in that career for over 15 years. Supporting families, and specifically mothers became a deep calling and I am thrilled now to have entered the birthing and postpartum space. I have supported families across this city, in Tribeca, UWS, Brooklyn and Queens. My approach is to follow the parents lead at all times, to create space for mother and newborn, while also providing advice/insight when appropriate. I am a postpartum doula and NBCS, but I am also a mom. I know the sleepless nights, the anxiety, the second guessing that can come along with bringing home a brand new babe and navigating a brand new relationship with them. I would love to be a second (or third or fourth) pair of hands to assist you during this time and to bring some peace, consistency and comfort that you and baby are ready and waiting for!
