About me

Hi! I’m Liz. I’m a Brooklyn-based doula providing birth and postpartum support in the broader NYC area. My doula journey started a year after the birth of our delightful, curious baby Casper. I had been feeling an immense pull toward more local, hands-on work and a desire to help create the world I want our children to live in. Motivated by my birth and postpartum experience, I completed my DONA International Birth Doula Training in 2026. Since then, I have advanced my training through mentorship with Manhattan Birth. Prior to pursuing birthwork, I spent a decade planning and implementing within nonprofits and startups. Understanding, connecting with, and communicating with people has always been the heart of my work. I love the active process of making sense out of messiness and adapting toward what feels right. I am a daughter, sister, partner, and mama. You can often find me climbing, reading, and exploring outside with family and friends. Nature has been one of my greatest teachers — I aim to live with gratitude, awe, and a deep respect for all creatures. My pronouns are she/they. I proudly support parents of all genders.

Service introduction

***Birth Doula Support*** As your birth doula, I work in service of you and your path. I aim to protect and nurture your memory of your birth. Every birth is different, and my support will adjust as your needs emerge. Leading up to birth… we focus on what will help you feel most prepared. I will check in to see how you are really doing and can provide resources tailored to your learning style. We will collaborate during prenatal sessions to understand your birth process and preferences emotionally, physically, and logistically. During birth… we focus on continuously supporting you. I can support you with comfort measures, decision-making conversations, and help you find your rhythm and respond to changes. My goal is to be a grounded, consistent presence for you no matter how your birth unfolds. After birth… we focus on nurturing you. I can support you with lactation/feeding and help with newborn care and questions. We can walk through your memories of your birth and process feelings as they arise. We can also just sit and I will hold space for you in these early, tender days. ***Daytime Postpartum Doula Support*** My goal is to help you feel cared for and nurtured. Since each postpartum experience is unique, we will determine together what support you need most on a given day. My support can look like helping you with your newborn, exploring lactation and feeding, and doing light household tasks. I can make you tea and be present with you. I will listen calmly and without judgment to whatever is bubbling up for you.
