Greetings, my name is Makeda and I am based in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. I am a certified Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula.

I am dedicated to offering personalized at-home care and practical assistance during the early day, weeks, and months after childbirth.

I have witnessed firsthand the extraordinary compassion, dedication, and warmth she brings to every aspect of her life. I wholeheartedly believe she will be exceptional in this role. Makeda’s work ethic is something I have always deeply admired. When she commits to something, she gives it her entire heart. She approaches this work not as a casual interest but as a true calling. She studies diligently and constantly seeks to deepen her understanding of maternal and newborn health. Her professionalism is evident in how seriously she takes her preparation and how she holds herself accountable to the highest standards in everything she does. One of Makeda’s greatest gifts is her ability to communicate with both warmth and clarity. She has a natural way of making people feel heard and understood. Whether she is offering guidance to a new parent, sharing information, or simply listening, she creates a space of trust and safety. I have watched her interact with expectant and new mothers, and her presence is immediately calming. She has an intuitive ability to read a room, to know when someone needs encouragement and when they simply need a steady, reassuring hand. This is a rare and invaluable quality for someone entrusted with the care of newborns and their families. At her core, Makeda is one of the most compassionate and caring people I have ever known. Originally from Trinidad, she carries with her a deep cultural appreciation for community, family, and the sacred experience of welcoming new life into the world. Her background working with children has given her a profound understanding of families' needs and the importance of nurturing support during life’s most tender moments. She has a remarkable gift for connecting with little ones, offering patience, gentleness, and a love that is felt deeply by every child she cares for. Watching her with the children in our family has only strengthened my confidence that she is meant for this work. Makeda’s passion has also inspired me to advocate. She is deeply committed to ensuring that every mother and newborn receives informed, compassionate, and empowering care. She understands the disparities in maternal and infant healthcare and is driven by a genuine desire to make a difference - one family at a time. She is the kind of person who will stand beside a family not only during those precious early days but throughout the entire journey, with grace, knowledge, and an unshakable calm. She has the heart, the mind, and the spirit to be a truly outstanding Postpartum doula and Newborn Care Specialist. Any family that has her by their side will be profoundly fortunate.

Trauma-Informed Birth & Postpartum Doula + Mind-Body Birth Support Specialist - serving sensitive souls, trauma survivors & diverse families with holistic, inclusive care. Virtual support worldwide | In-person in Philadelphia, Florida & travel throughout US I believe in care that meets you exactly where you are - honoring both the profound transformation and messy reality of reproductive experiences. As a Somatic Experiencing (SE) student with a psychology background, I offer trauma-informed doula care that integrates nervous system regulation and mind-body birth support. I go beyond logistics to support the emotional complexity, relationship dynamics, and identity shifts that accompany life-changing transitions. After navigating my own pregnancy experiences with minimal support and feeling dismissed by medical systems that couldn't hold the complexity of mind/body connection, I became passionate about offering the embodied, compassionate support I needed, but couldn't find. My approach centers on the emotional and relational complexities of becoming parents - drawing from over a decade of somatic-based, trauma-informed intimacy and relationship coaching to focus on the psychological and somatic shifts that come with growing a family. I specialize in supporting empaths, sensitive souls, cycle-breakers, LGBTQIA+ and non-traditional families, and those seeking heart-centered, evidence-based, identity-affirming care that honors their full humanity. Whether you're seeking birth doula support, postpartum care, pregnancy loss support, or prenatal preparation, I provide grounding support through nervous system regulation, practical advocacy, body-based somatic tools, and steady, non-judgmental presence that helps you stay connected to your identity and agency while navigating medical systems and profound personal transformation.

Recent review

From the moment we connected, Lorrae created a space where I felt genuinely seen, affirmed, and supported in ways that are unfortunately rare in healthcare settings. During my pregnancy, she consistently prioritized my needs, choices, and comfort over any agenda, and did not push me toward any particular protocol or outcome. Lorrae is exactly the kind of practitioner our community needs. She combines professional skill with authentic compassion, and her nervous system regulation tools became invaluable during both labor and postpartum. She has a gift for creating calm in moments of intensity. Beyond her clinical skills, Lorrae embodies genuine care and integrity and I cannot recommend her highly enough to other parents seeking support.
