Let me start off by saying, Karen was heaven sent. My experience with with her was something I never thought I needed, if you’re looking for a doula she’s a perfect fit. I 1,000% recommend her, 10/10. I feel her work is something every mom to be should experience. I feel she helped heal my mind body and soul in a matter of 3 days. My baby girl and I will for ever be grateful for your help in our life, and when I’m ready to have another baby i have you on speed dial. I really do appreciate the time and energy you put into us.

I am beyond thrilled to share my incredible experience with Ms. Riley, my fertility doula. Words cannot fully capture the gratitude I feel for her unwavering support and expertise throughout this deeply personal journey. After years of longing and uncertainty, I am overjoyed to say that I am now with child—a dream come true that I could not have achieved without Ms. Riley by my side. From the very beginning, she brought a sense of calm and confidence to what felt like an overwhelming process. Her knowledge about fertility and holistic care was unparalleled, and she took the time to truly understand my needs, my story, and my vision for this journey. Ms. Riley went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. Whether it was guiding me through lifestyle adjustments, offering emotional encouragement during challenging moments, or providing practical advice that was tailored to my situation, she was a constant source of strength. She had the unique ability to make me feel heard, valued, and empowered at every step. Thanks to Ms. Riley’s unwavering dedication and guidance, I was able to overcome hurdles I never thought possible. Her compassionate approach and commitment to her clients are truly extraordinary, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone embarking on their fertility journey. Ms. Riley isn’t just a doula—she’s a life-changer.

Hello, my name is Katia Almada, and I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula dedicated to helping families feel supported, confident, and cared for as they welcome their new baby. Through my practice, Golden Hour Doula, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment where parents can focus on bonding with their baby, recovering peacefully, and feeling empowered in their journey into parenthood.

Recent review

Katia has been my postpartum doula and caregiver for my baby boy since February 2025. She consistently takes initiative in ways that truly lighten my load as a new mom. One moment that stands out was when she noticed I was juggling baby care and chores—without me even asking, she washed the baby's clothes and bedsheets, took out the trash, and even helped cut vegetables for dinner. She always notices what needs to be done and jumps in with such care and thoughtfulness—it’s clear she’s not just doing a job, but genuinely wants to support and nurture. This was my first baby, and I had never used a doula service before, so I was initially skeptical and a bit anxious about having someone new in our home during such a vulnerable and emotional time. But from the very beginning, Katia made me feel at ease. Although she has extensive experience with babies, she remains open and flexible—listening carefully to my needs and respecting our preferences. She remembered all the little things I mentioned and adapted her care accordingly. Even now, with my baby being 8 months old, I still turn to Katia when I need someone trustworthy to watch him for a few hours. That’s how much confidence and comfort she’s brought to our family. Both my husband and I are deeply grateful for her help—having Katia as our doula has been such a positive and reassuring experience. She made a lasting impact on our early journey as parents, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her by their side.

Hi, I'm Amanda. I'm a DONA International certified postpartum doula, mother of four (including a set of identical twins!), Ina Garten superfan, book lover, and shock-proof confidant. With over a decade of experience supporting families, I'm a trusted expert in newborn care and the postpartum journey. I know firsthand that becoming a mom—whether it’s your first time or your fourth—can feel overwhelming. Between the sleepless nights, conflicting advice from the internet (and well-meaning family), and the physical recovery, it’s easy for moms to feel lost in the chaos. That’s where I come in. I believe every mother deserves judgment-free support—emotional and physical—during a time when all the attention tends to shift to the baby. During my time with you, I listen deeply, tuning into each family’s unique needs during the fourth trimester, to bring calm, clarity, resources, and care when it's needed most. Whether I'm cooking the comfort meal you’ve been craving, caring for your newborn so you can recharge, offering evidence-based feeding guidance, or being a safe space to vent over coffee—I'm in your corner. After a visit, you’ll feel seen, heard, encouraged, rested (and yes, probably be laughing too). No question is off-limits. No topic is “TMI.” I am here for it all and to help you be a mother YOUR way.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Ireta Hunter. From the moment labor began, she was a calming and reassuring presence. She stayed right by my side, rubbing my feet through contractions, offering words of encouragement, and helping me stay grounded and focused. She recommended sitting on the peanut ball during my labor and it was a game changer from my previous labor. Because of her support, I was able to have the natural birth I had hoped for—it was truly an empowering experience that I will carry with me forever. She reminded me of my strength at every step, and I felt safe, supported, and confident in my choices. Even after birth, she continued to check in and offer postpartum support, which meant so much during those first tender days. Her compassion, knowledge, and gentle presence made such a difference in my journey in motherhood. If you’re looking for a doula who is not only skilled but truly cares about you as a whole person, I wholeheartedly recommend Ireta Hunter. She helped me welcome my baby into the world in the most beautiful way, and I am endlessly grateful.

I am a mama of 3, deeply devoted to the sacred work of supporting women during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Birth is my passion, my calling, my ministry—it is a profound honor to walk alongside women during this very transformational time. I believe that our bodies are designed for birth and that women should hold ultimate authority over their birth experience. My mission is to help women recognize their innate power, trust their instincts, and choose aligned support that empowers them to have a positive experience. As a woman who has experienced birth trauma within the system, I hold space for other women to process and heal from their own stories. I guide women in peeling back the layers of trauma and fear, helping them find their voice, reclaim their power, and birth on their terms. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating postpartum, or seeking healing after birth trauma, I am here to serve you. Birth is sacred, and every woman deserves to feel supported, seen, and powerful on her journey.

Georgette was truly a lifesaver for our family! After a difficult birth experience, we urgently needed support and newborn care for our daughter. From our very first phone call, Georgette provided empathy, understanding, and flexibility around our needs and timing. During each visit, her calming presence and warmth helped create a sense of ease and reassurance, in addition to providing insightful support and guidance.
