Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Rochester, NY

I love my work and serving families. Birth truly is my passion. I support in a home, hospital or birth center. I have experience with VBAC and unmedicated labor. I’ve been a doula for 2 years. In my free time I love singing in bands, metal detecting and caring for my guinea pigs and cats.

Hi, I'm Amanda Souza, a DONA-trained birth and postpartum doula based in Rochester, NY and the founder of Alma Sprout. Before becoming a doula I spent years as a professional nanny, so I bring real hands-on newborn experience into everything I do. I work with all kinds of families — I speak English and Portuguese, and I offer inclusive, affirming care for everyone. I offer birth support, daytime and overnight postpartum care, and newborn sleep guidance virtually across the US.

Hi I’m Phyllis Sharp, a mother of 5 children. I have been a full time doula for 5yrs. I love supporting birthing families. I am also a certified lactation counselor and enjoy sharing my knowledge to help others have a successful feeding journey.

It began in 2003 when I became certified with DONA International. Since then, I’ve had the immense privilege of witnessing countless births, each one a unique and awe-inspiring miracle. Whether at home or in the hospital, I’ve been by families’ sides, offering support and encouragement every step of the way. But my passion for all things birth goes even deeper. In 2004, I became a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, and in 2008, a Certified Lactation Educator and Counselor. And in 2007, I experienced the profound joy of giving birth to my own beautiful daughter, supported by two incredible doulas who showed me the true meaning of strength and compassion. I believe with all my heart that every woman—every birthing person—holds an incredible power within. Pregnancy and birth are normal, natural processes, and when we understand our innate abilities, we can embrace these experiences with confidence and joy. Over the years, I’ve been honored to support families through first, second, and third births; natural and medicated births; and those tender early postpartum days when breastfeeding journeys begin. I’m here to offer evidence-based information, a listening ear, and a steady hand to hold. My goal is to help you make informed choices that feel right for you and your family.

My name is Lauren. I’m 26 years old and have called Webster, NY home my entire life. Family is at the center of everything I do, and my dog is truly my heart. I believe deeply in showing up for the people and beings we love, and that belief is what draws me so strongly to supporting others during pregnancy and birth. Being part of someone’s journey into parenthood is incredibly meaningful to me. It’s an intimate, powerful, and life-changing time, and I feel honored to walk alongside families with care, compassion, and presence.

Hi, I’m Christine! I support, guide, and nurture birthing families so they can give birth naturally and with confidence. Birth is a beautiful and transformative experience. Having a happy and positive mindset can greatly enhance the process. It is important to surround yourself with supportive people, including a doula who can provide emotional and physical support. As you embark on this majestic journey, trust that your body knows what to do and allow yourself to fully embrace the dream of bringing new life into the world. "Helping families discover their power to birth their babies the way they want to!"

Welcome! I’m Jessica Rogers. I am a Birth Doula, Postpartum Doula, and Certified Lactation Counselor with a deep passion for supporting families through one of the most powerful journeys of their lives: pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I was trained through DONA International and am actively working towards birth and postpartum certification. I was certified as a lactation counselor by the ALPP after completing the Center for Breastfeeding course and passing the exam. My own experience becoming a mother ignited this calling in me, and it grew even stronger during my second pregnancy. This season can be transformative, overwhelming and beautiful all at once, and you do not have to go through it alone. As your doula, I will be a dedicated and compassionate support system, someone who not only respects you but also walks beside you like a trusted friend throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I bring a calm presence, a good sense of humor, and a listening ear when you need it most. I am a hard worker who believes in your strength and am here to support you and your family every step of the way. When I am not supporting families, you can find me spending time with my amazing husband, children, family and friends, exercising, reading, meal prepping or gardening. I also happen to love spiders and have a new hobby that includes two jumping spiders and a tarantula - weird, maybe, but I love them and have always had a soft spot for exotic pets (and nature in general). I also have a Bachelors Degree in Interior Design from RIT, and spent the previous ~12 years working in the field until the birth of my second baby. I love seeing women empowered through this incredible experience and I would be honored to be a part of your team. I serve the Rochester, NY area hospitals and provide postpartum support to those within 25 minutes from my home in Hilton, NY. I truly look forward to working with you!

My name is Jasmine. I’m currently a nurse at a peds office. I just recently did my Doula training class. I just basically want to be someone to support other women that don’t have the help or just need a little bit of extra hands when times get rough I have three kids of my own, so I understand what it can be like so I’m here to be that person when you need it some help and support

I was drawn to becoming a birth doula because I saw firsthand the difference that informed, loving support can make. Having gone through my own birth trauma, I realized that a little help goes a long way during this tender phase. I also have a passion for breastfeeding and lactation education. I love to support families that are latching, pumping, bottle feeding, donating, etc.

I have dedicated my life to birth education and doula work, and hope to one day be a nurse midwife. I have a public health degree, a food handlers license and am about to renew my liability insurance which covers all but home births. I am LGBT competent and have assisted primarily single parents both by choice and by circumstance. I hope to end the birth parent mortality crisis in my lifetime and am so proud to be a doula!

⚜️About Me:⚜️ I’m Kailey Yeager, owner of Naturally Nurtured Doula Care LLC, wife, and proud mother of two. My experiences as a mother of a child with special needs inspired me to become a passionate advocate for families navigating healthcare, education, and community support systems. As a community-based, high-risk doula, my goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-informed support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. I believe parents deserve access to accurate information, quality education, and trusted resources so they can make informed decisions that are right for their unique families. My role is not to make decisions for parents, but to ensure they feel confident, respected, and empowered as they make those decisions themselves. Beyond my doula work, I am deeply committed to advocacy. I have advocated for improved access to Early Intervention and preschool special education services, helping raise awareness of the barriers families face in obtaining timely evaluations, services, and support. I am passionate about ensuring children with special needs and their families have access to the services, resources, and opportunities they deserve. I currently serve as Vice President of the Brockport PTSA, where I work to strengthen partnerships between families, schools, and the community through volunteerism, parent engagement, and educational initiatives. I also serve as the Brockport Central School District TIES Program Coordinator, coordinating inclusive social and recreational opportunities that bring together students with and without disabilities. Through TIES, I aim to help foster meaningful friendships, leadership, and a sense of belonging for children and young adults of all abilities. Everything I do is rooted in the belief that education empowers families. Whether I am supporting an expectant parent, advocating for a child with special needs, leading community programs, or connecting families with local resources, my mission is to provide the knowledge, encouragement, and support that help families make informed choices with confidence.
