All you've ever wanted was to be a parent but you never imagined it would be so difficult. Whether you are a parent or soon to be parent, you wonder why no one warned you this would be so hard? On the outside you look like you have it all figured out but on the inside you are struggling. You thought this was supposed to be the “happiest time of your life” but it's brought so much heartache & stress. Did you know 1 out of 5 women struggle with perinatal anxiety or depression and 1 out of 8 couples will struggle with fertility? You are not alone. My name is Danielle Smith and I am a therapist who specializes in all things pregnancy, postpartum, and anxiety. I have a passion for supporting women, specifically those who are struggling with excess fear, worry and stress related to motherhood. I believe we all deserve to be heard and to tell our story in a safe environment in order to promote healing that that is what I aim to provide. Whether you are struggling with general anxiety or struggles related to pregnancy and parenthood you do not have to suffer in silence anymore. You deserve to live a happy more carefree life free of self judgment and comparisons.

Keriann provided such wonderful preparation for my second child. She is very well educated and I found her informational guides to be very helpful. She also provided me with such interesting and transformational things like prenatal yoga and reiki. I had never done these before and I feel they really impacted my birth positively.

Carolyn is an amazing midwife. She is committed to her craft and her passion shows. I had both of my babies with her. I transferred to her at 8 months pregnant with my first and I'm so glad I did. She took great care of me and my little boys before, during and after the delivery. She helped me feel in control of the whole process and was committed to helping me make educated decisions for the best possible outcome. I am very grateful.

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)!
