Find a Doula Near Me in Newport News, VA

I am Isamarys Medina Rivera, a birth and postpartum doula. I was living in Puerto Rico, until my age of 21. I am the youngest daughter of a family of four, composed of a geriatric nurse mom, one older sister and a brick mason dad. Since the beginning of my life, I’ve always had a passion for a career in maternity fields. When I moved to Virginia, I decided that it was time to embrace that passion, especially being surrounded by Hispanic moms who feel vulnerable, because of the language barrier, as well as overwhelming emotions. My desire to become a support for women grows every time I meet single moms and Hispanic families. The best way for me to become that support was to become a Doula. Inspired and motivated by this passion, I took the Birth and Postpartum Doula training with DONA International. After that I created my business, Amarys Doula, Child of the moon. As a Hispanic military wife, I know how hard can be. And by experience, I know how hard it can be to give birth and have a healthy postpartum, when your military partner is not around. That is why I am always looking to assist military families. After I took the training for Birth and Postpartum Doula, I added a placenta encapsulation services, because I believe it is important for my clients to be able to benefit from their own nutrients available in their placenta, such as iron, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, to help them regain their strength and give them a piece of art that their bodies bodies created. After my first postpartum experience, mature moms have a special place in my heart, and it will be more than an honor serve them. I help my birth and postpartum clients with respect, love, and I give them all the evidence based information possible. It is my goal that they feel confident and empowered during labor and postpartum. I will be there to help them adjust to this new life, including working with their body, using services such as Yoni steaming. I serve in the Hampton Roads area and reside in Norfolk. If you have any question do not hesitate to contact me. I speak Spanish natively, and also speak English

A Little About Myself My name is Elise Osmun, I grew up in a small town in southern Oregon with my parents and three siblings. Over the last ten years I have made many moves in my life. My family and I left Oregon to live in San Diego California where I then attend San Diego State University to obtain a Bachelors in Psychology. While working as a professional nanny for years, I gained a beautiful community of families, mothers, and babies. I had the pleasure of meeting a doula who suggested I volunteer at the hospital birthing center to see how I liked it. I fell in love with the Doula world and went on to obtain my certification. While going through the program I realized the many other certifications that would be beneficial in helping as many people as possible. I have met my life partner and decided to join his military lifestyle. After a few moves we now have a long term home in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I have always had a strong passion for supporting families during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Each family has their own way of parenting, needs, and values. My goal is to support you in having a non-judgmental, informed, and respected birth experience. I am committed to getting to know you throughout your pregnancy, and creating a close relationship with you before that special day. It would be an honor to support & comfort you during these most intimate and sacred moments of your life!
