Seeking help can feel intimidating and most think, “Do I really need to speak to a stranger about this problem?” Taking that first step though can help you to learn some strategies for a lifetime. Having been a social worker for over 25 years, my approach is an eclectic one. My practice includes working with people who have a history of perinatal issues, death/dying, DV, and substance use. I work with people from the ages of 4 through seniors.

Hello! I am a doula located in Central Jersey and my goal is to support birthing people in having a positive birthing experience.

I am a Kingdom focused woman with a heart for women’s health and well-being. For more than two decades I have worked with hundreds of women and families delivering childbirth education, doula support, and wellness education. My goal is to help women make informed decisions and advocate for a healthy pregnancy, birth preferences, postpartum recovery, positive parenting experience, and self-care that leads to well-being.

My name is Carynne Martin and I was born, raised and currently reside in NYC. I have recently answered my calling to be a birth doula to serve birthing individuals from all walks of life. My goal and dream as a birth doula is to give birthing persons the birthing experience they deserve which should be joyous, peaceful and comfortable. The title doula to me means being an advocate, a support system, a confidante and an educator. I have completed my training with Mama Glow Foundation and now I am looking forward to serving my community one birth at a time.

Hi, I’m Suzanne. I’m an occupational therapist dedicated to supporting women in the motherhood journey. I work with women through individual sessions and support groups, focusing on the physical and mental shifts necessary for women during their transition to motherhood. In addition to my experience as a mother, I’ve personally struggled with infertility, a high-risk pregnancy, and a traumatic birth experience. Not all pregnancies and births live up to our expectations, and unfortunately women aren’t always comfortable expressing themselves when they don't. In addition to supporting your physical recovery, I hope to serve as a guide to help navigate the complicated emotions that often arise during this journey.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Birth Doula and Lactation Doula committed to supporting families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. With training from DONA International, I provide evidence-based guidance, emotional reassurance, and hands-on support to help birthing individuals feel empowered and confident in their journey to parenthood. My approach is centered on personalized care, advocacy, and informed decision-making, ensuring that each family I work with feels heard, respected, and supported. In addition to birth support, I specialize in lactation assistance, helping new parents navigate breastfeeding and chestfeeding with confidence and ease. I am passionate about creating a nurturing and inclusive space for all birthing individuals, fostering a positive and empowering experience from pregnancy through postpartum.

As a birth and postpartum doula, I am honored to share my story with you. My commitment to supporting and empowering families during the transformative experience of childbirth is deeply rooted in my own origin story. I am originally from Laredo, Texas, a city on the Texas-Mexico border. Raised in Mexican-American upbringings, I grew up on the frontera, minutes from the border. I moved to New York City in 2009 to attend New York University’s Steinhardt’s School Counseling and Guidance program. After living in Manhattan and Queens, I moved to the suburbs, Peekskill, NY in 2020. My birth and postpartum doula journey began during 2022 when I recognized the need for comprehensive, inclusive and compassionate support for expectant parents. Drawing from my personal birth experience as a woman of color, a mother and extensive knowledge as a certified doula, I set out to create a space that celebrates the beauty and strength of childbirth. Thus, Mariposa Doula Care was born in 2022. Outside of my doula work, I am an avid advocate for immigration, holding space for the BIPOC community and dedicating time to community education. My devotion to fostering a positive birthing experience extends to empowering families with knowledge and resources, ensuring they embark on their parenting journey with confidence. When not immersed in the world of birth and postpartum care, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter and discovering new outdoor spots in Westchester County. I aim to provide doula care to all families, all backgrounds including but not limited to: BIPOC, single parents, LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent families.
