A healer. A dreamer. A believer. A Risk taker. I see the world from many different perspectives which strengthens my intuition and drives me. Giving back to the world has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Whether I am giving the world entertainment or caring for individuals, whether they are four legged or two legged. I am most fulfilled when I am serving. Helping earthlings to heal their mind, body and spirit with support, education, meditation, and healing body products. As a doula, my genuine nature is to be a supporter and healer to those who need assistance strengthening their support system or those who do not have a support system.

Soy mamá de un niño de 4 años, lo que me ha dado una experiencia real, paciente y amorosa en el cuidado infantil. Acabo de llegar a Estados Unidos y estoy muy motivada a trabajar como niñera, especialmente en horario nocturno. Tengo una conexión muy especial con los niños; disfruto brindarles calma, seguridad y atención personalizada, respetando las rutinas indicadas por los padres. Soy responsable, atenta, cariñosa y sé manejar momentos de llanto, cambios de pañal y acompañamiento durante la noche con mucha paciencia. Mi prioridad es que los padres puedan descansar tranquilos sabiendo que sus hijos están en buenas manos.

I am Rosemary Meran, a mother, doula, hypnotherapist, and founder of Soul Connections and Birthanesthesia, an evidence-based, medical-grade hypnosis method for a positive, medication-free birth. I support women in experiencing pregnancy, birth, and motherhood as sacred and empowering journeys. With training in Soul Integration, clinical and transpersonal hypnotherapy, and yoga, I bring a compassionate and holistic approach to my work. My goal is to help mothers connect deeply with their inner wisdom and authentic selves, fostering a birth experience that honors their unique strength and resilience. My journey as a doula was inspired by my own pregnancies and births, where I discovered the profound importance of feeling connected, informed, and supported. In my work, I create a safe and nurturing space for mothers to heal generational patterns, embrace their wholeness, and approach birth with intention. I believe that every birth, whether at home or in a hospital, deserves reverence and a deep connection to inner strength. This foundation of calm and confidence carries forward into the transformative journey of motherhood.

I've been working with Taja for several months. I met her when my baby was a few months old and I was having trouble figuring out how to get her to nap. Taja was very helpful in teaching me how to soothe my baby and help her nap. She is very dependable and trustworthy, has great perception in understanding what the baby needs and has good emotional intelligence. I have used her dozens of times for childcare and she is always early, helpful and very reliable.

Booking Donnette’s postpartum doula services is one of the best decisions we have made as parents to our baby. Donnette is incredibly knowledgeable and has a calm, friendly presence that was simply a pleasure to have in our home. She helped us immensely in the first weeks of our baby’s life with caring for him day and night, answering all of our questions, creating schedules, setting up the many gadgets a baby requires and much, much more. Donnette helped us feel confident in our new role as parents and empowered us to trust our intuition. I must add that she was also so lovely with our rambunctious dog! We enjoyed our time with Donnette so much that we have even asked for some additional hours after her time with us completed. We highly recommend Donnette for her postpartum doula services and hope to work with her again for our next baby!

Geeta is amazing and we loved having her as a post-partum doula. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and soothing during the daytime sessions and was an absolute life saver during the night sessions. She was amazing with our daughter (and our pets!), and really put us at ease when she was around. We felt so comfortable with her and knew our daughter was in good hands; we would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering a post-partum doula.

My name is Chamaine, I am Birthing Postpartum Doula with a deep commitment to supporting families through one of life’s most transformative experiences. I bring a nurturing presence and a calm, reassuring approach to help create a warm and comforting environment where parents feel truly supported and valued. My mission is to offer compassionate, knowledgeable care to families welcoming new life—guiding them through both the joyful moments and the inevitable challenges with patience, empathy, and expertise. In addition to my core practice, I have experience working in kosher kitchens and providing attentive, respectful care for infants following their bris, ensuring families feel confident and cared for during this sacred time.

Recent review

We had the pleasure of having Chamaine support and guide us for the first five weeks after our daughter was born via C-section. As first-time parents returning home after a difficult pregnancy followed by a brief NICU stay, we felt very overwhelmed and anxious about entering the new phase of our lives. Chamaine was like a ray of sunshine entering our home, providing us with an instant sense of warmth and comfort. She made a concerted effort to connect with and care for our entire family, including our newborn daughter, our (extremely needy) dog, and both of us parents. We’ve gleaned so much valuable knowledge from Chamaine that we will surely carry with us throughout parenthood. We couldn’t have asked for someone more nurturing, responsible, thoughtful, and attentive to care for our daughter, and it brought us so much peace to know that she was in such great hands each day and night. We were so lucky to have had Chamaine as our baby nurse, and none of us (dog included!) could have gotten through this challenging adjustment period without her. We appreciate her tremendously and she will always be a very special part of our family!
