Hi, I’m Sofia.
I’m a birth and postpartum doula trained through The Circle Family Center, a certified 500-hour yoga teacher with six years of experience specializing in pre and postnatal yoga, and a trained mindfulness childbirth educator through the Mindfulness Childbirth Class with Nancy Bardacki. My work integrates mindfulness, embodiment, and evidence-based education to support parents through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with confidence, clarity, and calm.
When people feel supported and safe, their bodies are better able to move out of the fight flight freeze response and into a more grounded, responsive state. This shift allows labor to unfold more smoothly and helps parents stay present and connected throughout the process.
I meet each client where they’re at, honoring the full spectrum of birth preferences and experiences with compassion, presence, and care. As a mother to a three-year-old, I bring both personal insight and professional experience to my work, offering guidance that is informed, empathetic, and deeply rooted in lived experience.
I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible support I received from Sofia during the birth of my first child. From the moment we connected, it felt like it was meant to be. She was everything I didn’t even know I needed and so much more. During labor, especially when unexpected complications arose, she was my anchor. She guided me through every intense moment with such positivity and grounding techniques that I didn’t panic and remained confident in my body. I am sure that because of her support, I was able to avoid a C-section and stay focused on what my body was capable of. She also supported my husband and mother. They also are so grateful. Her compassion, knowledge and advocacy truly are unmatched. She made all of us feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I truly believe my birth experience would have been completely different without her—she transformed it into something I look back on with strength, pride, and deep gratitude.
If you are considering a doula, lucky you to have found her. She is phenomenal in every sense of the word, and I feel beyond blessed that she was my doula. I will cherish the impact she had on my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum life forever.
