I am a Postpartum Doula certified through Childbirth International. I have a large extended family and have always been used to being around and working with children. For 3 years I worked as a child and school photographer traveling school to school in the tristate area. With all of this, I felt that I could best support families in a different way and decided to become certified as a Doula. I find comfort in supporting families in a comprehensive and holistic way. I look forward to opportunities to support any type of family in the community. When I am not working I enjoy backpacking, photography, and spending time with family.

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m a birth doula based in Perkiomenville, PA, and I love supporting families in both Montgomery and Bucks counties. My passion for this work comes from wanting to help parents feel cared for and confident as they step into the big transition of welcoming a new baby. As your doula, I’ll be there to support both you and your partner—helping you feel calm, prepared, and confident through birth and into postpartum. Think of me as a steady, reassuring presence by your side throughout the whole journey. When I’m not at a birth, you’ll usually find me outside with my husband and daughter, soaking up the fresh air. And in quieter moments, I love to knit—especially baby blankets, which have become my favorite little keepsakes to make.

I am trained to be non-biased and have no judgment towards any type of birth. I am excited to attend and support any birth experience that may arise. I provide women with emotional, physical and educational support throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum. As a Doula, all I want is to be there for you. Let’s get started.

My name is Kristen. I am a Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and pediatric Registered Dietitian (RDN) with over 10 years of experience in hospitals, NICUs, community programs, early intervention, feeding therapy, WIC, and private practice. I have such a passion for advocating for parents and babies during this intimate and vulnerable time, and I love holding space for new families as they navigate parenthood. I believe lactation support should be accessible, realistic, and non-judgmental; my job is to figure out what works for YOU and YOUR baby. Your feeding journey is as unique as you are, and I will always meet you where you're at, hold space for you for the hard times, celebrate your wins, and fiercely support you in your decisions. Outside of my day to day, I am an avid reader, yogi, and artist, and enjoy exploring new coffee shops and breweries with my husband and our dog, where we live outside of Philadelphia, PA.

I take a wholistic approach that centers each family’s unique needs with care and compassion. With a strong focus on maternal mental health and emotional well-being, I’m a dedicated advocate for informed, empowered choices and gentle, supportive care.

Hi! I'm Yanesa, a certified doula and founder of Doulas Through Life. I support families in Eastern PA. I offer primarily overnight support, birth, newborn care, emotional wellness, and more. I have been a doula for 5 years now and currently work with a agency as well. Whether you are a first-time parent or growing your family, I'm here to help you feel confident and cared for. I like working with kids but as a doula I have grown to love working with the parents as well. Seeing a family grow and gain confidence is so precious and fulfilling. Both mom and dad (yes dads can have postpartum) need love to. I majored in public health and have used that knowledge to better equip doula care to be more community based and well known and not some secret society haha. It doesn't always take a village but it truly does make all the difference having one by your side and we all deserve too.

I’m an RN and IBCLC who believes mothers deserve better information, better support, and better outcomes. My work centers on helping women understand their bodies—especially during pregnancy, postpartum, and breastfeeding—so they can make confident, informed decisions about their health and their babies. I specialize in complex feeding challenges like painful latch, low milk supply, and tongue tie, but my approach goes beyond fixing symptoms. I focus on the physiology, the family system, and the lived experience of motherhood so that care is practical, compassionate, and deeply individualized. Through my lactation practice, education for healthcare providers, and hormone-focused coaching, I help families move from confusion and overwhelm to clarity and confidence. My philosophy is simple: when mothers are given accurate education, skilled support, and respect for their intuition, they become powerful advocates for themselves and their children. My goal is not just to solve problems in the moment—but to equip women with knowledge that serves them for a lifetime. My work exists at the intersection of postpartum, lactation and hormone wellness - I have specialized training in complex feeding challenges including low milk supply, tongue/lip tie assessment and management, and hormone imbalances.

Hi, I’m Kellie, a birth doula, pediatric nurse, women’s health herbalist, and the heart behind The Nourished Mother. I bring over a decade of nursing experience into the birth space, along with a deep reverence for the physiology of a woman’s body. My approach blends evidence-based care with herbal wisdom, breathwork, and somatic practices that help women soften, trust, and embody their power during pregnancy and birth. I believe birth preparation is not just about learning positions or writing a birth plan. It is about reconnecting to your body. It is about learning how your breath can soften your pelvic floor. It is about helping your partner feel confident holding you through intensity. It is about cultivating safety in your nervous system so your body can open. During our time together, we will prepare not only for labor, but for postpartum. We will discuss hormonal shifts, recovery, nourishment, support systems, and the emotional transformation into motherhood. I often incorporate herbal teas, grounding rituals, breathwork, and practical postpartum planning into our prenatal sessions. As both a nurse and a doula, I am comfortable navigating conversations with medical providers while also protecting the sacredness of your experience. I am a calm, steady presence who listens deeply and advocates clearly. My hope is that you feel informed, supported, and deeply connected to your body as you step into birth and motherhood. You deserve to feel nourished in every phase ❤️

My passion as a Doula has roots in mental health care & advocacy, family bonding, trauma informed care, support for parents in recovery, disability navigation, young mother mentoring, & so much more.
