Bereavement Doulas in Philadelphia, PA

My name is Markita Roberts, and I am a dedicated mother of two boys. My journey as a parent has inspired me to focus on educating and empowering families to make informed decisions. I aspire to create an inclusive platform where knowledge can be shared freely, and resources can be provided that resonate with your lifestyle. My motivation stems from personal experiences that highlighted the importance of support, education, and advocacy in the birthing process. I aim to provide emotional and physical comfort, ensuring that parents feel safe and respected in their choices regardless of how they choose to give birth. I recognize that every parent’s journey is unique, and I want to help them navigate their options with confidence and knowledge. I inspire to create an environment where mothers can embrace their strengths, celebrate their bodies and cherish the moments surrounding childbirth. My focus is on the parents and baby's well-being throughout the course of pregnancy and postpartum with a huge emphasis on mental health and self-care and God. Ultimately it is my goal to foster positive childbirth experiences that resonate long after the baby arrives, leaving parents with lasting feelings of empowerment and joy.

I believe it is a gift to be able to make a difference in the way a family feels supported and cared for throughout their journey. It’s the reason I became a Doula. I personally know what it feels like to be supported vs not. I feel extremely fortunate and honored to have been trusted and invited into many birth spaces over the years. It is a mission that I continue to take very seriously. I specialize in helping people have redemptive births after previous birth trauma, VBAC, advocacy, and physiologic birth. I aim to help people find their voice and birth from a place of power, strength and confidence!

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.

Creating lasting memories, empowering women, and providing comprehensive support are central to my approach. I am deeply committed to making a positive impact with the families I support, offering them care, guidance, and a safe space for communication. I look forward to supporting you!

Kirsten “Kiki” Schiller CBD, CPD, CLC, Perinatal Trainer I grew up outside Philly in a big family, playing sports my whole life, and fell hard for the arts in my 20s. I became a woodworker, drummed in a band, and eventually became a mom. After years of nannying, caregiving, and supporting families, doula work felt like a natural next chapter — grounded in a genuine love for people and a deep instinct to show up when it matters. Outside of birth work, I’m usually near the ocean, making something with my hands, moving my body, cooking for the people I love, spending time with my son and family, or learning something new. I’m always evolving, staying curious, and finding ways to bring more intention into the way I live and work. I’m excited to get to know you, your family, and the story you’re stepping into…

Hi everyone I’m Ari! (she/they) I'm a Trained Full Spectrum Doula located in Philadelphia, PA. I’m dedicated to providing trauma-informed, client-centered, and affirming care for all.

To read testimonials from parents who have trusted me to be a part of their experience, follow this link: https://doulamatch.net/profile/34407/ari-eisen. As a birth doula, my focus is on prenatal education that centers physical, emotional, social, and spiritual factors impacting your pregnancy and parenthood journey. I'm here to support your unique vision for your birth experience and serve as your advocate in times of need. I understand that the bodymind is vulnerable and reactive to regimes of oppression. My goal is to uplift the innate beauty and strength of all bodies, with a focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC parents in navigating barriers to just medical care (though I work with parents of all identities). I am sensitive to the institutions and practices that contribute to poor maternal and birth outcomes and I maintain that anti-racism is essential to holistic carework. For years, I've engaged in embodiment practices such as yoga, meditation, and acupuncture to deepen my connection with bodymind intelligence and navigate my own chronic pain journey gracefully. Throughout my various doula trainings, I've upheld my values, which I'm eager to share with you. It would be an honor to be your guide and provide you with compassionate, radically inclusive support.

Hi, I’m Ali! A Philadelphia birth doula trained through Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings. My own births were the first healthcare experiences where I felt deeply listened to, respected, and trusted in my body, and that experience is a big part of what drew me to this work. I want the families I support to feel that same sense of dignity, confidence, and care - whatever their birth looks like. I believe there is no single right way to give birth. My role is to offer calm, compassionate, evidence-informed support, help you understand your options and communicate what matters to you, and stay steady as things unfold. Before becoming a doula, I spent more than a decade in international humanitarian and development work, which taught me a lot about listening, building trust, and staying grounded in uncertain situations. I’m also a parent of two young children and love spending time with my family, being outside, and traveling!
