Hi everyone! My name is Tia and I am a full spectrum doula. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout their reproductive journey.

Anna Siwakoti (she/her) is a holistic reproductive practitioner and prenatal educator. Her journey to become a holistic reproductive practitioner began before she was even born. Anna’s parents struggled for many years with infertility and after many years of trying to conceive and multiple miscarriages they conceived. “Growing up, I saw the pain infertility left on my parents. I saw the stress and the scars it left on them. I always knew I wanted a career that had to do with birth and healing but I was never quite sure how that would look.” Having a background in health education, she has always been a strong supporter of informed choices. She strives to be able to help her clients learn in an unbiased and judgement free environment. She hope to become a safe space, a person you can confide in, ask your questions and feel support regardless of what you would like to say or do. “I look forward to supporting you make the right choices for you and your family. The only choice I will advocate you make is an informed one, one you can live with.” Anna loves to approach situations considering all aspects of the being: mind, body and spirit.

I am a Doula, Usui Holy Fire® II Reiki Practitioner, and a Certifying Reflexologist with a background as a Personal Support Worker, and Business Administrative Graduate from Loyalist College. I have a true passion for supporting others in any way I can with empathy, love, and care. 6 years ago, a little boy came into my life in a way I did not expect. I had very little support, nobody took the time to be there and educate me properly despite my efforts to ask questions about labour and birth. I really felt alone in the experience… When the time came to give birth the OBGYN I had was in the hospital long enough to break my water and then was “off for the night”. I ended up with some complete stranger, who was rude, yelled at me, and impatient. He didn’t listen to me, and made me feel very uncomfortable! My son ended up coming out very quickly due to receiving an unnecessary episiotomy (I found this out at my 6 week post birth checkup). This resulted in my son not having mucus squeezed out of his lungs and having issues breathing on his own, he had low APGAR scores and was rushed to the NICU with very little communication from the nurses or the doctor while they stitched me up. The pain I had been feeling escalated as I had no baby, no support and a doctor who had no regards for me as a human… He would get frustrated with me every time I flinched involuntarily and tell me to relax while he stitched me up- he did not believe I could feel it. My epidural had failed with my son. I felt everything. The next couple of days in the hospital were a blur.. I felt a little helpless as I dealt with being sore… nobody had the time to show me how to breastfeed (which failed in epic proportions)… nothing was going right. I had all these plans while pregnant… and none of them were working out, nothing I hoped for was happening. This was the start of postpartum depression With my youngest, I knew better and had learned so much along the way from my personal experience. I was wiser, I knew what to ask and how to advocate. I have an incredible drive to be there for others, this is such a crucial time in your life. Nobody should have to feel alone. This is why I have also become an Evidence Based Birth Professional Member. All I needed was support. This is my why. I want to support YOU, no matter the way you need. I want to be there, educate, and help you through it all 🧡 Labour, Birth, and Postpartum.

Hello, my name is Bohdana (she/her), and I became a Doula because being in a supportive role, sympathetically and empathetically meeting you where you are at in your journey, is something I am both proficient and passionate about. I will be by your side as you bring your baby into the world whether at a hospital, birthing center, or in the comfort of your own home. Once baby is born, I will continue to provide you with educational support as well as encouragement and emotional support as you become acquainted with your baby. I will support your infant feeding journey (breastfeeding or otherwise) and offer household organizational support. I have time to get to know YOU, not just your birth preferences. I have time to provide you with as much support as you need throughout your entire journey. I genuinely love supporting others and being an empath means this role comes naturally to me. After birth, both parent(s) and baby need a lot of support. I can do overnight but also daytime 8-hour shifts to help care for baby so that you can get some rest, or on a consultation basis – an informative session on infant care, breastfeeding techniques and restorative care for the parent who gave birth. I feel blessed that as a doula, I am part of such a beautiful moment and environment called birth, where I am able to help enable mothers to help believe in themselves that they strong, beautiful and powerful. Making moms feel loved, supported, cared for, and special during their labours and births is so rewarding. My first languages are Ukrainian and English, but I can also support you in conversational Russian and basic German!

My name is Lauren. I’m 26 years old and have called Webster, NY home my entire life. Family is at the center of everything I do, and my dog is truly my heart. I believe deeply in showing up for the people and beings we love, and that belief is what draws me so strongly to supporting others during pregnancy and birth. Being part of someone’s journey into parenthood is incredibly meaningful to me. It’s an intimate, powerful, and life-changing time, and I feel honored to walk alongside families with care, compassion, and presence.

I support mothers and their partners to have confident, well-informed births by teaching the most current evidence-based methods for comfort and pain relief.

Welcome! I’m Jessica Rogers. I am a Birth Doula, Postpartum Doula, and Certified Lactation Counselor with a deep passion for supporting families through one of the most powerful journeys of their lives: pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I was trained through DONA International and am actively working towards birth and postpartum certification. I was certified as a lactation counselor by the ALPP after completing the Center for Breastfeeding course and passing the exam. My own experience becoming a mother ignited this calling in me, and it grew even stronger during my second pregnancy. This season can be transformative, overwhelming and beautiful all at once, and you do not have to go through it alone. As your doula, I will be a dedicated and compassionate support system, someone who not only respects you but also walks beside you like a trusted friend throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I bring a calm presence, a good sense of humor, and a listening ear when you need it most. I am a hard worker who believes in your strength and am here to support you and your family every step of the way. When I am not supporting families, you can find me spending time with my amazing husband, children, family and friends, exercising, reading, meal prepping or gardening. I also happen to love spiders and have a new hobby that includes two jumping spiders and a tarantula - weird, maybe, but I love them and have always had a soft spot for exotic pets (and nature in general). I also have a Bachelors Degree in Interior Design from RIT, and spent the previous ~12 years working in the field until the birth of my second baby. I love seeing women empowered through this incredible experience and I would be honored to be a part of your team. I serve the Rochester, NY area hospitals and provide postpartum support to those within 25 minutes from my home in Hilton, NY. I truly look forward to working with you!

It began in 2003 when I became certified with DONA International. Since then, I’ve had the immense privilege of witnessing countless births, each one a unique and awe-inspiring miracle. Whether at home or in the hospital, I’ve been by families’ sides, offering support and encouragement every step of the way. But my passion for all things birth goes even deeper. In 2004, I became a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, and in 2008, a Certified Lactation Educator and Counselor. And in 2007, I experienced the profound joy of giving birth to my own beautiful daughter, supported by two incredible doulas who showed me the true meaning of strength and compassion. I believe with all my heart that every woman—every birthing person—holds an incredible power within. Pregnancy and birth are normal, natural processes, and when we understand our innate abilities, we can embrace these experiences with confidence and joy. Over the years, I’ve been honored to support families through first, second, and third births; natural and medicated births; and those tender early postpartum days when breastfeeding journeys begin. I’m here to offer evidence-based information, a listening ear, and a steady hand to hold. My goal is to help you make informed choices that feel right for you and your family.

Hello! I am a doula & birth photographer in Ottawa. I am a mom of 3 school-aged kiddos. I am a huge believer that every birth is different and there's no “right way” to birth your child! I support you in your journey!

Hello, I am a Birth Doula, Post Care Douls, Certified Breast Feeding Consultant & supported over 500 Moms. Owner of Doulas at Large LLC, & trained over 600 doulas worldwide to support mommies during & after birth. My doulas are nurses, social workers & teachers.

⚜️About Me:⚜️ I’m Kailey Yeager, owner of Naturally Nurtured Doula Care LLC, wife, and proud mother of two. My experiences as a mother of a child with special needs inspired me to become a passionate advocate for families navigating healthcare, education, and community support systems. As a community-based, high-risk doula, my goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-informed support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. I believe parents deserve access to accurate information, quality education, and trusted resources so they can make informed decisions that are right for their unique families. My role is not to make decisions for parents, but to ensure they feel confident, respected, and empowered as they make those decisions themselves. Beyond my doula work, I am deeply committed to advocacy. I have advocated for improved access to Early Intervention and preschool special education services, helping raise awareness of the barriers families face in obtaining timely evaluations, services, and support. I am passionate about ensuring children with special needs and their families have access to the services, resources, and opportunities they deserve. I currently serve as Vice President of the Brockport PTSA, where I work to strengthen partnerships between families, schools, and the community through volunteerism, parent engagement, and educational initiatives. I also serve as the Brockport Central School District TIES Program Coordinator, coordinating inclusive social and recreational opportunities that bring together students with and without disabilities. Through TIES, I aim to help foster meaningful friendships, leadership, and a sense of belonging for children and young adults of all abilities. Everything I do is rooted in the belief that education empowers families. Whether I am supporting an expectant parent, advocating for a child with special needs, leading community programs, or connecting families with local resources, my mission is to provide the knowledge, encouragement, and support that help families make informed choices with confidence.

I am a wife and mother to an amazing little girl. Pregnancy, Labor and delivery are my passion. I believe everyone deserves the birth they want with all the support they desire. I am DONA International trained. I’m excited to assist families during their transition into parenthood in whatever way they want or need me to. I hope to be the calm in the room, the person either parent can turn to when they’re feeling unsure and someone they can lean on in those first few weeks of adjustment.

Hi I’m Phyllis Sharp, a mother of 5 children. I have been a full time doula for 5yrs. I love supporting birthing families. I am also a certified lactation counselor and enjoy sharing my knowledge to help others have a successful feeding journey.

I love my work and serving families. Birth truly is my passion. I support in a home, hospital or birth center. I have experience with VBAC and unmedicated labor. I’ve been a doula for 2 years. In my free time I love singing in bands, metal detecting and caring for my guinea pigs and cats.

I was drawn to becoming a birth doula because I saw firsthand the difference that informed, loving support can make. Having gone through my own birth trauma, I realized that a little help goes a long way during this tender phase. I also have a passion for breastfeeding and lactation education. I love to support families that are latching, pumping, bottle feeding, donating, etc.

My name is Jasmine. I’m currently a nurse at a peds office. I just recently did my Doula training class. I just basically want to be someone to support other women that don’t have the help or just need a little bit of extra hands when times get rough I have three kids of my own, so I understand what it can be like so I’m here to be that person when you need it some help and support

I am a trained birth + postpartum doula. I am also a lactation counselor and health educator originally from NJ, via NYC! I am new to the Rochester Area—I've been primarily a lactation counselor and postpartum doula since 2020, and first got trained with Ancient Song Doula Services in 2018. I attended my first birth in 2018 after 3+ years of health education. My family is from the Dominican Republic, I am fluent in Spanish, and conversational in French after 14 years of studying and understand Brazilian Portuguese a fair amount! I have dedicated my life to birth education and doula work, and hope to one day be a nurse midwife. I have a public health degree, a food handlers license and am about to renew my liability insurance which covers all but home births. I am LGBT competent and have assisted primarily single parents both by choice and by circumstance. I hope to end the birth parent mortality crisis in my lifetime and am so proud to be a doula! I am accepting postpartum and education clients only between now (May 2025) and October 1 2025!
