I know what it feels like to need a village and not have one. I'm Jessica, a prenatal and postpartum doula and a fellow mother who navigated early parenthood without the support system I needed. I adjusted - but I know now how much smoother, calmer, and more joyful that season could have been with the right person beside me. That experience is the foundation of my work. I serve the whole family to prepare and thrive in the first weeks: the mother who is recovering her body, the partner learning to lead, perhaps an older child adjusting to a new sibling, and the baby who just needs to be held while someone who loves them eats a warm meal. My work is also rooted in a deep personal faith - a belief that we are each given exactly what we can carry, and that we were never meant to carry it alone. Whatever your background or beliefs, know that i bring that same spirit of grace and purpose to every family I serve. I am not here to share my faith with you; I am here because of it.

I support women and birthing people of color who are feeling dismissed, unsure, or overwhelmed during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

If you’re a woman or birthing person of color feeling dismissed, unsure, or overwhelmed—you’re in the right place. This journey is yours. I’m simply here to hold space, answer your questions, and make sure you feel safe, seen, and supported every step of the way. ​ Random Facts: I've supported births at Katz Women's Hospital at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, Hungtinton Hospital, NewYork-Presbyterian Alexandra Cohen Hospital for Women and Newborns and NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital.

Hello and welcome to my profile! My name is Dalia, and I am a postpartum doula based in NYC. My path to this work began with my own postpartum experiences as a mother of two. The immense joy, the exhaustion, and the emotional ups and downs transformed me in ways I could never have anticipated. During that time, I became deeply aware of how often new parents are not supported in meaningful, holistic ways—how easy it is to feel alone in a season that requires so much care and community. That realization is what inspired me to pursue this work. As a postpartum doula, I support new parents as they navigate the complexities of the postpartum period with care and understanding. Alongside emotional support and a steady, nonjudgmental presence, I offer hands-on help with newborn care, feeding support, light household tasks, and creating rhythms that feel sustainable for your family. Whether it’s answering questions after I'm gone, helping you get a bit more rest, or simply holding space for everything you’re feeling, I’m there to meet you where you are. I believe every parent deserves to feel seen, held, and supported during this tender chapter, and I would be truly honored to walk alongside your family as you welcome new life and find your footing in this new season. I look forward to connecting.

Hi everyone! I’m Christina Singh

I am Full Spectrum Doula for three years striving to craft a practice in which I work with women during pregnancy to seek evidence-based information, and to feel capable, confident, and strong as consumers, as birthing women, and as life-givers. Regardless of their birth choices, these prenatal visits, as well as the additional communication during my clients’ pregnancies, have the potential to set women on a path of making their own decisions and trusting themselves throughout pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period .As is so often the case with birth, things may go completely differently than envisioned. But with a strong foundation of trust in themselves, their bodies, and their supporting person going into labor, a doula can help support a woman to have a powerful birthing experience in which she is an active participant and the ultimate decision maker. How I show up for each woman in labor will be different, according to her personality, her needs, her desires, and the rest of her support team
