Pregnancy and childbirth are among the most transformative experiences in a woman's life. While this journey is natural, it also comes with many physical and emotional challenges. As your doula, my role is to provide continuous emotional support, physical comfort, and evidence-based guidance to help you have the best possible birth experience according to your values and preferences. With years of training and experience attending births, I understand the birthing process intimately. My goal is to be your constant companion, equipping you with knowledge and techniques to navigate each stage of labor. From breathing exercises and massage to simply holding your hand, I'll be by your side every step of the way. More than just medical support, I aim to cultivate a nurturing environment where you feel empowered, respected, and in control throughout your labor and delivery. My services extend beyond the birth as well, offering postpartum assistance to ensure you start this new chapter feeling confident and supported. Birth is an incredible rite of passage. As your doula, I'm honored to be part of your unique journey, providing the guidance and compassion you deserve during this profound life event. Let's work together to create a positive, fulfilling birth experience tailored to your individual needs.

Kayla is amazing!! I used her for placenta encapsulation for my last two babies and couldn’t be happier! She has such a great personality and made us feel so comfortable and excited about the whole process. She was prompt with coming to pick up the placenta and had the pills back to us so quickly. I didn’t do placenta encapsulation with my first baby and I certainly noticed a difference when using them with my last two! 10/10 recommend!

Marilyn helped me Post partum after I had my third baby. I was really weak after the birth, having had my baby unexpectedly at home with just my husband. She came over with a quiet and warm personality, she was super caring and anticipated what I would need during the night. She got me hot packs and cold packs, positioned me, took wonderful care of my son and even got me a goodie mommy basket which just shows you how thoughtful she is. I enjoyed having her help and can assure other moms that your child and you are in great hands with Marilyn.

Hi! I'm Jossy, like Josie and the Pussycats. I am the middle child of 3 girls coming from a huge latin family from Staten Island, NY. From my early years, I have been privileged to support new mothers and their precious babies within my own family, a journey that has shaped my commitment to serving with compassion and grace. I believe that my nurturing spirit and peaceful demeanor, guided by faith and supported by evidence-based practices and resources, are invaluable during these sacred moments in life. Professionally, I have dedicated years supporting women on their fertility journeys as a care advocate. As a Doula, I believe my nurturing and calm spirit, combined with evidence-based resources for decision-making, are essential during such sacred moments in our lives. My vision is to build caring, trusting, and honest relationships with the families I serve, honoring their birth and postpartum preferences. Whether I serve you as a fertility, birth or postpartum doula, I know the impact we will make on each other will be a forever treasured. My mission is to empower expecting parents with the confidence and knowledge to embrace each milestone on their journey to parenthood. Outside of my doula work, I cherish staying active with my husband, sharing coffee moments with friends, and reveling in the beauty of nature. I am eager to connect with you and explore how I can support you on this remarkable path. Together, let's embrace this journey with faith and joy!

I can't say enough great things about Jossy. We hired her as our postpartum doula for the first six weeks following the birth of my son. From the moment I first spoke with her, I was drawn to her easygoing attitude and comforting nature - I spoke with a number of doulas, and Jossy was the one I felt most at ease with. The conversation flowed naturally, and it was immediately clear how much she loves being a doula. Even though Jossy was only helping us with postpartum care, she was so sweet in sending regular check-ins leading up to my due date and giving tips and suggestions for issues I was dealing with. When I first met Jossy in person, I immediately felt completely comfortable around her and felt comfortable having her in our home and with our son. She quickly felt like a friend I could confide in and joke around with, which made all the difference in the first few weeks of postpartum. Jossy was so loving and sweet with our son, and it was so clear that she cared very deeply about his safety, wellbeing and happiness. After our overnights, she was always checking in to see how she was doing and offering ideas and suggestions of things to try with him. No matter how tired she was after back-to-back overnights, Jossy always arrived on time and with a smile. She was also so sweet with our high energy dog. Thank you Jossy for everything (and I wish we could have you to help us forever)!

Miriam is calm and levelheaded during labor providing a warm, knowledgeable presence. She knew just when to grab my hand as the contractions were getting intense and her words of encouragement (“You are so strong!” “You can do this”) were just what I needed in the homestretch. I highly recommend her as a doula.

As a full-spectrum doula, my purpose is to hold space for pregnant people through the profound journey of creating life - offering compassionate support during the prenatal, birth, and postpartum stages. I am here to help them reclaim their voice, reconnect with their creativity, and step into their inherent power as they navigate not only the physical aspects of birth but the emotional and spiritual transitions of life. Through every stage, I aim to empower them to feel seen, heard, and deeply supported in their transformation. I am committed to educating and uplifting my clients by sharing the rich history of Black women in birth work, ensuring that their stories are included in the broader narrative. I empower people to write and reclaim their own birth narratives, allowing their voices to be heard and honoring the legacy of Black women in this sacred space.
