Hi, my name is Aniyla and I am a Birth and Postpartum Doula and newborn care specialist. I created my own business called Rainbow Light with the intention of bringing a sense of belonging, peace, love, and light to women before, during, and after their pregnancy journey. To me, a rainbow represents joy, faith, and promise—a reminder that even in uncertain moments, there is beauty and purpose. At Rainbow Light, my goal is for every woman—of every shape, size, and color to feel welcomed, valued, heard, and deeply cared for throughout her journey. My motto is to bloom in care and beam in love. I want to create a space where you can feel balanced, supported, and able to truly flourish. From a young age, my passion has always been rooted in caring for women, babies, and families. I believe in the strength of the female body and the importance of nurturing and listening to it throughout every stage. Every journey is different, and just because your rainbow may not look like someone else’s does not make it any less beautiful, meaningful, or important. Your experience matters. I am so excited to begin this journey and connect with so many beautiful “rainbows” along the way 💛 Be blessed and bright 🌈 Disclaimer* Please note that at this current time I am in the process of setting up different insurance plans I will take. This does take a while to complete so unfortunately I am not currently able to take that form of payment until further notice. Thank you for your patience.

Aniyla created such a calm, supportive space during our first prenatal visit. She listened without judgment, explained everything clearly, and made me feel confident going into this journey. I already feel more prepared and supported. Her soul truly radiates light and ease. She makes me feel calm even with my pregnancy anxiety. Truly a great listener and a very naturally nurturing young woman! You can tell it is her passion rather than just a career.
