Zoe Jasper

Hello! I'm Zoe Jasper (she/her), a certified birth, postpartum, and community doula living in Philly. My path to birth work started with attending an abortion doula training as a college student, which led me to realize my passion for supporting people through the entire spectrum of pregnancy outcomes. After going on to work as a teacher, nanny, and union organizer, I completed my birth and postpartum training through Maternity Care Coalition’s Community Doula and Lactation Program. My training gave me a strong foundation in community centered and culturally responsive practices. As a queer woman and a doula, I am committed to supporting all kinds of pregnant people and family structures in their unique journeys to becoming parents. I see this work as a necessary intervention in a medical system that all too often dehumanizes birthing parents and neglects the process of informed consent. All parents deserve to feel safe, respected, and affirmed. My goal is always to instill in my clients a sense of their own agency and power. I offer guidance in creating a birth experience that aligns with your vision and unconditional compassion as you navigate the perinatal period. Through evidence-based prenatal education, continuous, hands-on support during labor, and encouragement as you adjust to life with a newborn, I am in your corner every step of the way. Outside of birth work, you can find me spending time with my cat, organizing with the Philadelphia Tenants Union, singing badly at karaoke bars, and bopping around West Philly.

Zoe is incredible. From prenatal to postpartum, Zoe makes sure you are informed, safe, and taken care of. She helped us advocate for ourselves during our induction. When it came time for delivery, she took control of the room, keeping us calm and focused. Zoe is knowledgeable, confident, and deeply compassionate. We could not have done this without her. We would work with her again and again and again.

Accepts insurance

I’m a caregiver who believes children thrive best when they feel safe, seen, and genuinely understood. I approach each child as a whole person—with their own personality, emotions, and way of learning—and I work to support them with patience, consistency, and respect. I value routines, clear communication, and creating calm, nurturing environments where children can explore, grow, and build confidence at their own pace. My philosophy is rooted in connection first. When children feel emotionally secure, everything else follows—learning, behavior, and independence. I partner closely with parents because consistency between home and care matters. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and intentional in the way I show up each day. Caring for children isn’t just something I do—it’s work I take seriously, with heart and purpose.

Ashley is Amazing , compassionate, understanding , flexible, patient and loving. I love and value that she advocates for my wants and needs. Her being a mommy and woman herself shines through how well she really relates to what are all the motions and vulnerability we experience during birth that i never really even knew to pay attention to until I met with Ashley. Alongside her compassion she doesnt ignore core values of your beliefs and expectations as planet fitness would say she gives that judge free zone, or we listen and we don't judge. Im Thankful and grateful to have crossed paths with the heaven sent angel she is, forseeking and wanting to experience a doula since learning about them im glad she was matched with me to give me an unforgettable experience for what is my first pregnancy with Twins but also my final pregnancy/labor & Birth experience. We Love and Thank You So much Ashley The Best Doula Anyone can ask for 💛

Hello! My name is Vania, and I am a Certified Postpartum Doula specializing in overnight newborn care. Based in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, I provide compassionate overnight support to families throughout the Greater Philadelphia area, including Philadelphia and its suburbs, as well as Central and Northern New Jersey. I am available to travel within a 90 minute radius and am currently accepting Fall 2026 clients. I am DONA trained, ProDoula certified, hold a Bachelor's degree in Social Work from Brazil, and am currently pursuing my nursing education. Since 2013, I have worked closely with newborns, infants, and families as a professional newborn nanny and postpartum professional, gaining extensive experience in newborn care, feeding support, infant development, and family adjustment. I have a deep passion for supporting families and caring for babies. For me, this work is more than a profession; it is truly fulfilling. I enjoy understanding each family's unique emotions, challenges, and needs, and helping parents find their rhythm so they can have more peaceful days and restful nights. As a postpartum doula, I provide compassionate, evidence informed support tailored to each family's unique needs. I have experience supporting families with newborns, twins, premature infants, NICU graduates, and unique family dynamics, including surrogate siblings born one month apart. My goal is to help parents feel confident, supported, and well rested as they adjust to life with a new baby. Caring for both babies and parents is a true calling for me. I love providing the support, reassurance, and guidance that helps moms and dads feel confident, relaxed, and cared for during the postpartum journey. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a family feel supported, rested, and confident as they settle into their new routine.

Vania is an exceptional doula! She is gentle, loving, understanding, and kind. She worked with us as a team, along with our other night doula, to come up with a plan and make sure our twins would be happy, healthy, and able to sleep through the night by the time she left us. Her communication was wonderful and she provided many additional tips beyond night support, such as products to buy and exercises to do with the babies. We loved our time having her in our home and are so grateful for the skills and tools she worked with the babies on that will continue to help them as they grow!

Kamilla Matos

6 years of experience

Hi, I’m Kamilla! I was born and raised in Brazil in a large, loving family where caring for others was part of everyday life. Inspired by my grandmother, a traditional midwife, I grew up learning newborn care and nurturing practices that shaped my passion for postpartum support. My journey became even more personal when I supported my own mother through postpartum depression, which opened my eyes to how deeply families need care during this vulnerable transition. That experience led me to dedicate my career to postpartum and newborn care, with the belief that when we care for the mother, we care for the entire family. With over 6 years of international experience, I support families from diverse backgrounds with compassionate, practical, and evidence-based care. I am a Certified Postpartum Birthworker through Cornerstone Birthwork Training, and I also hold certifications in Montessori education, Sleep Training, and Early Childhood Development. In addition, I have a degree in Law and am currently pursuing my nursing education to continue expanding my knowledge in maternal and newborn care. I do not romanticize postpartum recovery — I understand it can be overwhelming, exhausting, and emotional. My goal is to provide steady, individualized support so parents can rest, recover, and feel confident in their journey.

Kamilla was an incredible postpartum doula for our family. Her calm, compassionate support gave us the confidence to navigate those first few weeks with our newborn while also allowing us to get much-needed rest. She cared for our son Dylan with so much love and attention. We are so grateful for everything she did, and we can't recommend her highly enough.

Xiomara Gittens

7 years of experience

Peace and blessings! My name is Xiomara, I am a mother of a beautiful girl. I am from the very small town of Pemberton, located in Southern New Jersey. I take pride and I am inspired by my (Afro Caribbean-Latina) Panamanian roots and culture. I believe in holistic and wholistic healing and practices, and the balance between the two. I am 2x certified full spectrum doula, (through Doula Trainings International and the state of NJ via NJMIHIA), Reiki Master, and Placenta Specialist. I became a doula because of my own birthing experience, which led me to my passion for birth-work. Helping families by educating, advocating, and providing a safe space for a meaningful and purposeful birth. No birth is the same, no pregnancy is the same. However, by providing a safe space, and exceptional services, we can shift the narrative so that more families are aware of birth-workers within and outside of the healthcare system, with a focus on culturally competent care. Our mission at The Purple Purpose LLC is to inspire our clients to become the highest most confident versions of themselves, while embracing their journey, from the beginning until the end. We aim to bring forth a new way to assist families in maintaining their health and wellness, before, during, and after birth. We want to bring a deeper level of holistic and wholistic practice that will allow personal and professional growth, but most importantly, a safe, successful, and purposeful birth .

I had the pleasure of working with Xiomara for prenatal, birth, and postpartum support, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about her work, and truly attentive to the needs of her clients. From the very beginning, she was professional and supportive, helping me create a birth plan that reflected my wishes and values. During labor, she was a strong advocate for me and played a key role in making the experience smooth and empowering. Thanks to her support, I was able to have an unmedicated birth, which was a significantly better experience compared to my first. Her care didn’t stop at birth—she continued to check in during the postpartum period and even recommended excellent services, like a lymphatic drainage massage, that really helped with recovery. She’s very well-connected and a great resource all around. If you’re looking for a dedicated and compassionate doula, Xio is absolutely the one to call.

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m a birth doula based in Perkiomenville, PA, and I love supporting families in both Montgomery and Bucks counties. My passion for this work comes from wanting to help parents feel cared for and confident as they step into the big transition of welcoming a new baby. As your doula, I’ll be there to support both you and your partner—helping you feel calm, prepared, and confident through birth and into postpartum. Think of me as a steady, reassuring presence by your side throughout the whole journey. When I’m not at a birth, you’ll usually find me outside with my husband and daughter, soaking up the fresh air. And in quieter moments, I love to knit—especially baby blankets, which have become my favorite little keepsakes to make.

Rachel is exceptional. Working with her as our Doula for my first pregnancy was the best decision my husband and I made. She provided valuable prenatal education and resources along with being readily available to answer questions and discuss anything I was concerned about. During labor, Rachel served as a kind, steady and calming cheerleader and coach not just for me, but for my husband as well. He felt just as supported and cared for as I did. I had a long and difficult labor that ended with a C-section and I do not exaggerate when I say that I wouldn’t have survived without Rachel. She did everything from walking my husband through different comfort measures to help me, to holding me through the epidural procedure, and feeding me honey sticks to help keep my energy up. She was a calming and encouraging presence through our biggest life change of becoming parents. I deeply appreciated that postpartum visits are part of what Rachel offers. Those meetings were so helpful in processing through the birth experience and all that comes with postpartum healing and caring for a newborn. Rachel is a life saver and just a genuinely wonderful person. I highly recommend working with her!

Hello! I’m Katie! I am certified birth and postpartum doula(DONA).I am located in South Park, Pa. I have been working with little ones for about 15 years and I have been in the birth field for about 3 of those years. I absolutely love supporting families! I have all clearances, CPR certification, and am extremely reliable. On top of being a private doula I also work at Magee Women’s hospital as a prenatal and birth doula for the last three years supporting over a hundred births at this point! Being part of someone’s birth journey is always such an honor. I try to bring a calm and confident presence in the room to help you with all of your birth goals; and help you to have the birth you imagined. If I’m not at a birth or helping a family overnight with their new bundle of joy; you would find me with my little family. My husband and I have been married since 2017 and we have a little boy who is almost 6 years old! Some of our favorite things are camping, going to the movies and vacations to Disney world !

Working with Katie as a night time postpartum doula was truly invaluable during our newborn stage. Those first few weeks can be exhausting, and having professional overnight support made all the difference in our family’s well-being. I was able to rest knowing my baby was in experienced, attentive, and caring hands. She handled feedings, diaper changes, and soothing with such calm confidence, and always kept me informed while still allowing me the uninterrupted sleep I desperately needed. She also helped in my breastfeeding journey as she would bring the baby to me and put the baby back in the bassinet for me so I never had to leave the bed. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, and dependable night time postpartum support. It was one of the best investments we made for our family.

Recent review

Davona was my doula for my first birth - she was invaluable and I credit her with a huge role in making things go as smoothly as possible. I was induced and ultimately needed to have a C-section for failure to progress, which was not my ideal birth experience. Davona was extremely knowledgeable about the process and helped me to talk things through before deciding to proceed with the C-section, factoring in my own preferences and advocating for me during the hustle and bustle of prepping for surgery. She was also a huge support for my own support people - my husband and my mom - who were worried about me and the process. If I have more children, I will certainly request Davona to be my doula again!
