I was born & raised in New York, attended Fordham University at Rose Hill, Bronx NY and Ross University Medical School, where I completed my Pediatrics residency at Flushing Hospital Medical Center, Bronx NY. Although I loved helping children and young adults of all ages, I always gravitated towards newborns. Breastfeeding moms and babies often don't get the care and attention they need to thrive. So after careful consideration, I realized I could have a positive impact on newborns as a Lactation Consultant. As an IBCLC, I am well equipped to provide newborns, moms & their families with comprehensive breastfeeding support services, while still working in medical field.

Hello, my name is Allison Smigiel I am a registered nurse and lactation consultant. My nursing practice started because I wanted to find another way to support parents as they go through the transformational process of pregnancy and parenthood. I believe in empowering women and families by providing evidence-based information, partnership, and support to help them achieve their goals. My love for Obstetrics started after I saw my first birth in nursing school; I have spent the majority of my 16 years as a nurse working in labor & maternity units, and as a lactation consultant.

I believe that all parents deserve to feel encouraged, respected, and empowered to make the best choices for their families. It was this passion for supporting families that led me to establish Binghamton Metro Doulas. Since 2015, I have provided the Binghamton community with education and support during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period.

Hello! I’m so happy to be here. After 14 years of experience as a nanny, I’m excited to bring my love for newborns and families into my work now as a postpartum doula.

Hi, I’m Paige! I’m a training full-spectrum doula providing compassionate, comprehensive support across birth, postpartum, and lactation. ​My journey into birth work is built on nearly a decade of experience as a full-time professional nanny.

Once your baby arrives, I bring that same steady presence into your home, taking the guesswork out of newborn routines, feeding, and postpartum recovery so you can focus on bonding and healing. ​Whether you need continuous labor advocacy, hands-on help navigating lactation, or an extra set of skilled hands to ease the fourth-trimester transition, I’m here to help your growing family thrive with confidence.
