Meet Marla, Your Birth & Postpartum Doula With 5 years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the fourth trimester, Marla brings a rare blend of wisdom, warmth, and steady presence to every birth she attends. As a mature African American doula, she offers not just trained expertise but the lived understanding that comes from years of walking alongside women and families through some of life's most vulnerable and powerful moments.

She works to ensure her clients' voices are honored, their choices respected, and their comfort prioritized, whether they're planning a home birth, hospital delivery, or navigating an unexpected turn.

She helps families settle into this new chapter with practical help, emotional grounding, and a calm, reassuring hand. Certified through Maternity Care Coalition, Marla combines professional training with the intuitive knowledge of someone who has walked this path many times before — as a doula, and often as a mother, grandmother, or community elder herself.

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. My background in art and passion for research motivate me to offer imaginative, evidence-based birth education and holistic support. 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.

Hello everyone! My name is Soleil Townes, I am the owner of Evangeline Birthing Services, which provides full-spectrum doula services to those in select counties in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I have a passion for helping queer families of color have beautiful birth experiences and receive the support they need whether that is grief support or adoption support. I fell in love with birth work during my years at Montclair State University where I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Family Sciences and Human Development. While there, I took a class called “Medical Humanities” where I learned the different health disparities different ethnicities have faced in our health care system. What stood out to me was how Black birthing persons have such high birthing mortality rates. And upon further research, I stumbled upon the beauty and importance of birth work. I have always had a passion for helping queer families of color, and this shines through my work. I have over 5 years of childcare experience before becoming a doula. When I'm not working, I spend my free time expanding my hobbies: video games, reading, attending comic and anime conventions, community service, watching cartoons, and creating handmade jewelry.

I am a certified doula with ten years of experience in supporting and empowering families through their journeys. My passion for this work began with babysitting in my community, which then led to my role as an infant daycare teacher and eventually to becoming an overnight caregiver for new families. It has been an honor and privilege to be trusted by families during such a pivotal time in their lives. 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!

Greetings! I’m Lana and I’ve been working in childcare for over 10 years now in the greater Philadelphia area. I also just obtained my Masters in Childhood Studies this past spring. My work in childcare lead me to my career in birth work and advocacy. I’ve been a doula for a little over 2 years now; mainly doing postpartum care. Moving into the field of birth work has helped me to feel truly fulfilled in my career and is something I’ve become extremely passionate about. Whether it be assisting in births or helping families welcome home their new tiny human. In these two years I’ve had many clients and am happy to say I’ve grown close with each and every one of them :)

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.
