Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Sayreville, NJ

I am Full Spectrum Doula for three years striving to craft a practice in which I work with women during pregnancy to seek evidence-based information, and to feel capable, confident, and strong as consumers, as birthing women, and as life-givers. Regardless of their birth choices, these prenatal visits, as well as the additional communication during my clients’ pregnancies, have the potential to set women on a path of making their own decisions and trusting themselves throughout pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period .As is so often the case with birth, things may go completely differently than envisioned. But with a strong foundation of trust in themselves, their bodies, and their supporting person going into labor, a doula can help support a woman to have a powerful birthing experience in which she is an active participant and the ultimate decision maker. How I show up for each woman in labor will be different, according to her personality, her needs, her desires, and the rest of her support team

I practice a non-judgmental and caring approach to supporting mother and baby, while providing parents with advice when asked, and fact-based information on postpartum care.

I am passionate about Post Partum care and would love to hear from you. I am trained with Health Connect One as a full spectrum Doula, and will support your journey with calm, compassionate care every step of the way.

I am Joan Sherwood, founder of Peaceful Beginnings To You. My calling to become a doula was born from a personal experience. During the birth of my child, I was left alone in a hospital room without any support. My spouse and brother were sent home because I was not in active labor. My water had broken, so I was admitted, and I faced the daunting process of labor alone, in a secluded area until it was time to push. This experience, where I delivered a 9 -pound, 2-ounce baby without my loved one's present, ignited my passion to ensure that no other person would have to endure such solitude. My journey as a doula began 25 years ago when I assisted a family member through labor. Since then, I have been a source of support and guidance for family and friends, which eventually led me to pursue certification as a birth doula through DONA International. I am deeply committed to holistic birth and postpartum care, and my extensive training reflects this dedication. My education includes a Family Development Credential, studies at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, the Center for Homeopathic Education, and the Swedish Institute College of Health Sciences. I am also a certified Calm Birth Instructor, Infant Massage Instructor Trainer, Womb Sauna Practitioner, and have received postpartum training from Indigemama, BirthMama, Traditional Postpartum Practitioner, and Birth Arts International. My approach to doula care is centered on the needs of the laboring person. I come with no preconceived notions, and I remain as fluid and flexible as possible to meet the evolving needs of each individual. In addition, to running my private doula practice, I have provided doula care to underserved communities as a doula and doula mentor for a federally funded program in Brooklyn.
