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.

Greetings! My name is Savasiah Gardner, and I am a full-spectrum doula located in New York City. Being present at a friend's birth gave me my first eye-opening experience into birthwork; my master's in public health, coupled with my training with Birthing Advocacy Doula Training, have equipped me with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to support those on their own birthing journey. In my free time, I enjoy taking walks with my daughter and dog, as well as practicing yoga. I have plans to become a perinatal and postpartum yoga instructor in the future :-)

At Celestial Prime Doula, we believe that birth is a sacred initiation—a deeply personal, soul-shifting experience that deserves reverence, presence, and care that goes beyond the physical. Sacred beginnings speaks to the profound truth that every birth is a gateway, not only for the baby entering the world, but for the parent stepping into a new version of themselves. We honor that transition with intention, holding space for the emotions, fears, dreams, and power that come with it. Celestial care means offering more than just support—it’s about creating an elevated experience that nurtures the body, uplifts the spirit, and affirms the soul. We blend grounded, evidence-based guidance with a calming, spiritual presence, helping our clients feel safe, seen, and sovereign in their choices. Whether it’s through gentle words, intuitive touch, or simply being a steady presence, our care is rooted in love, alignment, and respect for each family’s unique path. This is where modern support meets ancient wisdom—because you deserve to feel divinely supported as you bring life into the world

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!

My passion with working with expectant families is to help them connect with one another, prepare and feel confident during and after their births. I want the people I work with to gain a confidence with their bodies but also feel safe and secure in advocating for their needs during pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I have a passion for nutrition and movement so I am sure to include different health measures and these two factors in my services as well. I have a degree in Psychology from Syracuse University and take what I learn from my formal training in the classroom and incorporate it in how I handle and care for my growing families during our time together. I love to laugh and bring joy in homes of the people I work with and hope that along with educating you on your body and body's super powers I can also bring comfort and confidence on this birth journey.

I had the privilege of having Shane as my doula during my pregnancy and childbirth, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the support, knowledge, and comfort she provided throughout this journey. From the moment we began working together, Shane's warm and calming presence made me feel supported and understood. She possesses a deep knowledge of childbirth and postpartum care, which she shared with me in our prenatal meetings, empowering me with information and confidence as my due date approached. Shane was incredibly responsive to my needs and preferences, always ensuring that my birth plan was respected and advocated for. During labor, her expertise and soothing demeanor were invaluable, providing both physical and emotional support that significantly contributed to my positive birthing experience. She knew exactly when to offer words of encouragement, when to give me space, and how to assist in pain relief techniques that made a significant difference in managing my labor pains. Postpartum, Shane's support was just as impactful. She visited us at home, offering advice on newborn care, breastfeeding, and adjusting to our new family dynamic. Her follow-up care and genuine concern for our well-being were beyond what I had expected, making the transition into parenthood much smoother and less overwhelming. Shane's passion for her work and her compassionate approach to supporting families during one of the most transformative times of their lives is truly remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for a doula who is knowledgeable, empathetic, and truly dedicated to providing the best possible care. Thank you, Shane, for being an essential part of our journey into parenthood. Your impact has been profound and will be remembered fondly.

I have been helping to improve birth experiences in NYC and Westchester County for over a decade. This is my philosophy: You don’t become a different person when you become pregnant, begin labor, enter your birthing space, or bring your baby home for the first time. You’re still you, having an intense and transformative life experience. As your doula, I take the time to learn who you are and what will help you and your family to feel comfortable, informed, prepared, and ready to engage with your birth, both in advance and through the ever-changing moments of the birth process. I am passionate, flexible, and comforting, but also grounded, no-nonsense, and strongly evidence-based.

Recent review

First of all, I must commend the Doula Project itself as an invaluable advocate. Sometimes the medical establishment views us within categories--especially when we are unusual as a result of identity--while the Doula Project listens to us as individuals in order to advocate for us to have the birth closest to our ideal within the context of medical wisdom. From the start I really appreciated Vicki's encouraging me to ask questions, to determine what the range of choices was, and to understand the benefits and risks of each decision. In my own case, I did decide because of advanced maternal age and medical advice to have an induced labor. Vicki was there to meet me at the hospital when I checked in, and she made sure that between her and her Doula Project partner on my case, I always had a doula to advocate for me from start to finish, through 27 hours of labor and beyond. Indeed, Vicki took the first photo of my baby, within minutes of her birth! From our first pre-birth meeting, Vicki correctly identified me as a physically fit person who would benefit from maintaining a physically active relationship to my labor and delivery. I brought a yoga mat and pilates ring to the hospital, and Vicki advocated for my being able to use them, even though my baby had to be monitored throughout the induced labor: we set up my yoga and pilates equipment right next to the bed, and Vicki advocated for periodic breaks from the monitor, especially in light of the fact that my baby was doing so well throughout. When I delivered my daughter, I surprised a number of the doctors, including one who thought a C-section would be a foregone conclusion, by delivering vaginally, after only about five minutes of pushing. I am very grateful to Vicki for her steadfast advocacy that led to such a positive birth experience for me and my daughter.

In my free-time I love to be outdoors, study astrology, and cook. I’m excited to connect with you!

Carolynn was a such a HUGE help during our first week home with our baby girl. She came in with the calmest energy (even when we were a mess tbh), made sure I was eating, resting, and not losing my mind, and somehow always knew what both my sweetie and I needed. She helped me with breastfeeding, newborn care, and more. And yes, I actually got to nap… She was supportive, kind, funny, and zero judgment. Idk how we would’ve made it through that first week without her. We saw her a few times after that until we felt comfy to take on the world as a new family.

I am so excited to meet you! I am a graduate from Brooklyn College (go bulldogs) with a Health and Nutrition degree. I love cheesy fiction books (don't Judge). They just give me an escape from the chaos of this world. The birthing world has always been a passion of mine, and being a part of the support system for any birthing person through education, breathing exercises, comfort and relaxation techniques and aromatherapy is what I enjoy most. I spend most days reading through evidence based research on birth, postpartum and breastfeeding to be well equipped support person for my clients. My clients are my number one priority and they have my unconditional support. I see each pregnancy as a unique miracle.I help women embark on their birthing journey gently through tested and proven methods. I also patiently answer questions and address concerns you may have and provide advice best suited to your situation. Please get in touch to set up an initial consultation. I look forward to meeting you, and always remember you are stronger than you think.

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.
