Hi there! I'm so happy you're here. I am a certified full spectrum doula in Toronto. I am so honoured to do this meaningful work in supporting families during pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum. I have assisted over 300 families, and love seeing you come into your power and confidence as a new family. It takes a village and I am happy to be part of yours. My Doula values stem from a feminist caring approach. It is very important to me that you feel validated and heard and have bodily autonomy while you make informed decisions.

I’m Suki Gaetz, a perinatal mental health counsellor and the founder of Matrescence Counselling. I offer a warm, grounded space for people navigating pregnancy, postpartum and the emotional transition into parenthood. Since 2019, my work as a birth and certified postpartum doula has brought me alongside families through birth, newborn care and the adjustment to life with a baby. This experience informs my understanding of the exhaustion, uncertainty, relationship changes and shifts in identity that can accompany parenthood, helping clients feel heard and supported as they find their own way forward. My professional background includes more than 15 years of experience in social services, supporting individuals and families through intake, assessment, crisis intervention and emotional support. I hold a Social Service Worker diploma from Seneca College and a Professional Counselling diploma from Rhodes Wellness College, where I also work as a teaching assistant. I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers and hold a provisional designation with the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA). My approach is compassionate, collaborative and informed by an understanding of trauma, with a focus on supporting emotional well-being through the changes and challenges of the perinatal period.

Hello, my name is Karen Gonzalez. I am a Certified Postpartum Doula with experience providing overnight support to families with newborns. During overnight shifts, I support parents by caring for their baby while they get much needed rest. My support can include bottle feeding, burping, diaper changes, soothing, safe sleep practices, breast milk handling, bottle and cleaning pump parts, light baby-related household tasks. I am calm, caring, reliable, and attentive to each family’s preferences and routines. My goal is to provide safe and compassionate support while helping parents feel comfortable and confident during the postpartum period.

Hi, I’m Patice, a full-spectrum doula serving Toronto and the GTA. Nine years of supporting individuals and families has taught me every person comes into pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with their own story, priorities, and idea of what support should look like. That’s why I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to doula care. My role is to understand what matters most to you and adapt my support as your needs and preferences evolve. Whether we’re talking through options during a prenatal visit, adjusting to unexpected changes in plans, finding ways to make labour more comfortable, or simply making space for a pause in the middle of it all, my goal is always the same: to help you feel informed, respected, and confident in the decisions you’re making. Good support isn’t about taking over. Support can be active in quiet ways. Sometimes it looks like breaking down options when things feel uncertain, so you can decide what feels right for you. Sometimes it looks like stepping back so you can focus on what your body and instincts are telling you. And sometimes it is simply making the space feel steady enough that you can pause and decide what comes next. The right support doesn’t draw attention to itself. It helps you feel more capable of navigating what is in front of you. Clients often describe me as calm, practical, and easy to talk to.

Hello parents and caregivers! I am Cheyanne. A mother, midwifery student, current nanny and future postpartum doula located in Toronto, ON. I have a deep passion for nurturing families through one of life’s most transformative journeys. My own experiences of motherhood inspired my commitment to creating gentle, informed, and compassionate care for new parents. As I work to complete my certification as a postpartum doula, I aim to offer hands-on support, emotional grounding, and evidence-based guidance to help families find balance, confidence, and rest in the early days after birth. I believe that every parent deserves to feel seen, supported, and celebrated as they welcome their baby and step into this new chapter.

I'm Gio Aiello, the passionate founder and CEO of Mindful Mommy Doula Matchmaking Agency. What started as a solo doula practice in 2017 has blossomed into a thriving community of 40+ doulas who have collectively attended hundreds of births and supported countless women. My journey from solo practitioner to leading a team of dedicated professionals has been incredibly rewarding, fueled by a deep commitment to empowering families with love, acceptance, and intention throughout their birth processes.

Birth can be whatever you want or need it to be, and that's where I come in as your doula. Whether you want it to be empowering, transformational, peaceful, healing or you just want to get through it in one piece then working with a doula like me will make all the difference. I'm with you from start to finish, which means from whenever you sign until the end of the fourth trimester, to help any and every way I can.

I love what I do and I'm sure you'll love what I do too.

I will always listen without judgement and be here to advocate for you and your family.

Once baby is born, I will continue to provide you with educational support as well as encouragement and emotional support as you become acquainted with your baby.

Hi there, my name is Marj — a birth and postpartum doula, a yoga/fitness instructor, an essential oil educator, and a mom of two! I am deeply committed to wellness as a holistic lifestyle. You're welcome to book a time in my calendar (https://calendly.com/marjwong/30-45min), I'd love to connect OR send a DM on IG @marj.wong As a DONA certified doula, I believe it is within each birthing person’s innate wisdom and ability to give birth. As well, birth should be an empowering experience. Throughout both of my own pregnancies, I practiced prenatal yoga, and I attribute my own remarkable birth experiences to my yoga practice and the HypnoBirthing method. From motherhood, becoming a birth and postpartum doula was a natural progression for me and I quickly found myself fully immersed in supporting clients through pregnancy, labour and beyond. It is in this role where I feel my intuition, guidance, and personal experiences to be incredibly supportive and valuable. The maternal period can be challenging, but with the right support, I know it can also be an incredibly joyous and transformative time. I am a diaper-free, breastfeeding, and HypnoBirthing advocate. I've been trained in many comfort techniques and tend to keep my approach educational and informative. With my help, you will gain the confidence to nourish and care for your baby and yourself in the best way possible. Chat soon and I look forward to supporting you!

I am a birth worker since 2012, I have provided a variety of services in a variety of settings around the world. I am located in Toronto, Canada, but I am available to travel for minimum one month commitments. I have worked in Macau & Hong Kong, Manila, Nairobi, Vancouver, and Guadalajara, and have a global perspective on birth physiology and traditions. I provide trauma-informed, and culturally safe care, be it education, lactation support, birth and postpartum doula services, or midwifery care. I’m available as a midwife only where a license isn’t required. My approach is very collaborative—rather than “save” you from unsafe practitioners, I prefer to work with you comprehensively in the prenatal period to be sure you have the environment you need for a peaceful and satisfying (physiologic, if possible) birth. My years and depth of experience and knowledge sets me apart from most locally-focused doulas, so I tend to work well with expats and globe-trotters like myself. My happy place is home in Ontario in the near North, at the cottage that has been a part of my family’s experience for 100+ years. I love all animals but especially dogs, and I ADORE drinking coffee and discussing big ideas.
