Hello! My name is Julie (they/she), and I am a full-spectrum doula keen on prioritizing care work that centers being an advocate, joy-seeker, and companion for families and individuals desiring community support during periods of great transition. As a full-spectrum doula, I offer my services of care for a range of experiences within the perinatal lifecycle: pregnancy, birth, postpartum, abortion, loss, and beyond. And above all - I aspire to connect pregnant and birthing people with themselves and their communities so that family networks can thrive during these liminal spaces and incredible rites of passage - however they may unfold. Whatever your personal story is, I hope to uplift and embrace it, non-judgmentally supporting families and providing a tailored alchemy of emotional, educational, logistical, and advocacy support in planning and preparing for the journey you are about to embark on. All families deserve to be held with care during these transitions, and I look forward to welcoming all the emotions that come up to help you find the most powerful, informed, safe, loving experience you can imagine.

Julie was an absolute lifesaver for our family. She helped us set our baby up for sleep success and gave us such great breastfeeding advice. Julie's emotional support for mom was just what we needed, and her incredible care and attention as our baby grew and her needs changed were so reassuring. It felt like Julie became a part of our family during that time, and her presence made everything so much easier. We couldn’t have asked for a better postpartum doula and are so grateful for everything she did for us. Highly recommended!

Hi, I’m Olga — a birth doula, birth photographer, and founder of YourCherish. I believe birth is not just a medical event, but a profound life transition. My work is grounded in emotional presence, calm confidence, and honoring each family's unique story. At YourCherish, we offer high-touch, holistic support through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Our approach combines practical guidance, emotional anchoring, and deeply intentional documentation — photography and video that captures the truth and beauty of your experience without disrupting the sacredness of it. Whether you're birthing in a hospital, at home, or somewhere in between, my role is to support your choices, help you feel safe and seen, and hold space for the unfolding of something truly unforgettable.

Working with Olga Zinner and her team at YourCherish was one of the most meaningful and supportive choices we made during our pregnancy. From our first conversation, we felt deeply cared for — not just as clients, but as a family stepping into a life-changing moment. We received both birth doula support and photography services, and the care was seamless, soulful, and incredibly thoughtful. Olga brings a calm, grounded presence that helped us feel safe, supported, and emotionally anchored throughout labor. Her team was equally kind, professional, and attentive — responsive with communication, gentle in their presence, and beautifully in sync. The photos and video we received were beyond what we imagined — raw, emotional, and full of light. Every detail, from preparation to postpartum follow-up, felt personal and intentional. If you’re looking for support that is truly heart-led and high-quality — this is it. Olga and the YourCherish team hold space with deep respect, quiet strength, and so much love. We’re forever grateful.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A True Godsend! Divine Doula Care Lives Up to the Name Where do I even begin? Working with De’naja and Divine Doula Care, LLC has been one of the most life-changing and empowering experiences I’ve ever had; not just for me, but for my sons and their father too. From the very first moment we connected, De’naja made me feel seen, safe, and fully supported. Her presence is calming, nurturing, and deeply intuitive. She doesn’t just provide a service, she offers an experience rooted in love, wisdom, and divine feminine strength. Throughout my pregnancy, De’naja was there every step of the way. She answered every question, soothed every anxiety, and held space for me to show up exactly as I was, no judgment, just care. Her knowledge and holistic approach made me feel more confident, prepared, and in tune with my body and my baby. But it didn’t stop at birth. Her postpartum support has been everything. She continues to show up for not just me, but for my family as a whole. She’s helped guide my partner in being present and intentional, and has been a beautiful, grounding energy in our parenting journey. Her care doesn’t come with a time limit—it’s genuine, ongoing, and rooted in deep compassion. De’naja is more than a doula. She is a healer, an educator, an advocate, and a sister in spirit. Divine Doula Care, LLC isn’t just a business, it’s a personal calling, something she pours her heart and soul into every single day and it shows. I am forever grateful to have had her walk beside us on this sacred path. If you're considering a doula, stop searching—De’naja is the one. Trust me, your mind, body, soul (and your family) will thank you. 💚

Breanna Gay was an amazing postpartum doula for our newborn baby boy Dekari from June 2023 to August 2023. She was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us through our first couple of months at home. Any questions we had, she was able to answer. As nervous first-time parents, we had so many questions, but she made us feel much more comfortable knowing that she was super experienced, and it showed! From the beginning, she was there to support us, even before our baby was born. We were able to text her all of our questions, and she replied quickly. She came in and helped us organize our nursery and set up all our gadgets. When our baby came home, she was there the first night, supporting us through breastfeeding and our long nights. She even helped tidy up the house and made me a little midnight snack because Iwas up all night. Breanna is such a joy to have, and I would recommend her to any family looking for support.

My name is Arlene Maynard and I draw upon 27 years of experience supporting families during the early days of parenthood as both a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula.One of the most valuable lessons I have learnt is the importance of individualized support. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse array of families, including 74 sets of twins, 4 sets of triplets, and 1 set of quads. Each family's dynamics presented unique challenges, and I have come to appreciate that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to care. By actively listening and tailoring my support to meet their specific needs, I have been able to foster a nurturing environment that empowers parents and promotes the well-being of their newborns. My commitment to professional growth has led me to become a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, a Certified Postpartum Doula, a Cache certified Newborn Care Specialist, an Advanced NCS through the NCSA, a Certified Perinatal Behavior Coach, and I am trained in the RIE method as well the Direct Connect Nurture method. My CPR certification further demonstrates my dedication to ensuring a safe atmosphere for newborns. These experiences have enriched my ability to provide comprehensive care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of families. I find great fulfillment in witnessing families gain confidence in their parenting skills and strive to create a supportive environment where they can share concerns and celebrate milestones. Throughout my years as a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, it has reinforced my belief in the transformative power of compassion, education, and community support. I am enthusiastic about gaining an opportunity to provide exceptional care for families as they navigate this rewarding yet challenging journey of welcoming a new life.

We used Arlene as our postpartum doula for the first six weeks after the birth of our son and we were very happy with her service. Not only was she very compassionate, but she was super knowledgeable. She actually helped to save my breastfeeding journey with her little tips and tricks.
