Hello everyone, my name is Yajaira (Jay) Vacanti and I'm a Certified Postpartum Doula and Infant Care Specialist located in Omaha, NE. From a young age, I was fascinated by pregnancy, newborns, and children—dreaming of becoming a baby nurse. This led me to pursue a nursing degree, but life took me down a different path in the corporate world, though still within healthcare. Becoming a doula has allowed me to bring my childhood dream to life, blending my passion for nurturing families with my healthcare background. As the oldest of three, I took on the role of caring for my siblings, and at 16, I began working as a Certified Nurse Aide in a nursing home, where I learned the profound impact of listening, empathy, and companionship. As a mother of six, I have firsthand experience with children of all ages and understand the joys and challenges of raising a family. I believe that family is life's greatest blessing, but let’s be real, it also comes with its fair share of challenges. Life changes in a big way after the birth of a child, whether it’s the first or third one. Every situation, pregnancy, birth story, baby, and postpartum period is unique. My goal is to ensure families receive the non-judgmental and compassionate support they deserve during these times. When I'm not caring for my clients, you can find me spending time with my family, reading, at church, or enjoying a good rom-com. I also love exploring new places, grabbing coffee with friends, or indulging in a little shopping spree.

Hello! My name is Hayden and I am 20 years old. I am currently studying business management at Peru State College. I just moved to Omaha and transferred to online schooling. I have prior experience working with children as I worked at the boys & girls club, a local preschool with kids aging from 3-7, and a summer camp working with kids with special needs.

Birth is one of the most important and transformative moments in a mom's life. I believe she deserves to be seen, heard, and honored during this time. My goal is to always hold space for her. Barry Steven once said, "Don't push the river, it flows by itself." I think this quote is beautiful and so fitting for birth. It's beneficial to let contractions flow instead of fighting against them, birth can benefit from being given space to move on its own. There are times when she may need help or assistance, and there are also times the mom decides to choose an intervention. Personal autonomy is so important and I believe all moms should be listened to. Their intuition knows best.
