Hi new parents! I’m Eliana and I am a postpartum doula with over ten years of experience serving growing families. In addition to my work as a doula, I am also a perinatal yoga teacher; I believe that the mind-body connection is essential for postpartum healing and recovery. I incorporate yoga and mindfulness practices into my doula work, offering families tools to help them feel more grounded, centered, and peaceful during this time of transition.

It's so nice to meet you! If you're interested in learning more, please feel free to reach out to me via my website or social media, listed below in the "Social media" section. -- I'm Emily—the heart and hands behind Mothered Majesty. From the time I was a little girl, I've been enchanted by the miracle of life. I would flip eagerly to the “stages of human pregnancy” section in biology books and pore over my mother's copy of What to Expect When You're Expecting like it was a sacred text. Motherhood and parenthood have always felt special to me—something I feel deeply honored to witness and nurture. Caring for others has been woven through my life and work for years. I've cared for infants and toddlers in an in-home daycare, provided childcare and babysitting, volunteered with elementary-aged children, and spent several years working overnight in a professional care-giving role supporting young adults with developmental disabilities. I've also had the privilege of walking alongside families during the postpartum season. These experiences, together with my formal postpartum doula training, shape the way I care for families today. I’ve walked through seasons of transformation in my own life—grief, healing, loss, and renewal. I understand what it can feel like to lose your sense of self in the midst of life-altering change. The postpartum period is a tender threshold, and I bring both my training and lived empathy to meet you where you are. My approach to fourth trimester care goes beyond practical support alone. I aim to see and affirm the inherent worth in every parent I serve. I bring the practical alongside the poetic: preparing meals, caring for your baby while you shower or rest, lightly tidying your space, running errands, offering evidence-based information, and simply being there when you need someone beside you. I don't claim to have all the answers, but you will never be alone in finding them. I believe in honoring the boundaries of my role and connecting families with trusted professionals when something falls beyond my scope. My goal is to help you rest, recover, grow in confidence, and feel supported as you find your footing in this new or new-again chapter of parenthood.

Hi families 🤍 My name is Naurys founder of Blessed Beginnings Maternal. As a mother myself, I know firsthand how beautiful, emotional, exhausting, and life-changing the postpartum journey can be. Going through my own experiences after birth inspired me to step into the maternal support field and become the kind of support I wish more mothers had during those early days. My passion is creating a safe, comforting, and judgment-free space where families feel genuinely supported. I understand that every postpartum journey looks different, and my goal is to help parents feel cared for, confident, and never alone during the fourth trimester. Through Blessed Beginnings Maternal, I offer compassionate postpartum support, newborn care, feeding support, emotional encouragement, and help creating a calm environment so parents can focus on healing, bonding, and adjusting to life with their little one. ❤️

Hi, I am Diamond Goode. A newly trained birth/postpartum doula based in NJ/NY. As a proud mom of two, I know that having support means the world during these special yet most vulnerable times. Becoming a new mom or even just being a mom to a newborn all over again can be overwhelming. There is alway new knowledge to learn. That’s where I come in to be that support and help your mental/body needs. My heart is to walk alongside families with understanding, reassurance, and gentle care as they welcome their babies and adjust to new parenthood.

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’m a caregiver who believes children thrive best when they feel safe, seen, and genuinely understood. I approach each child as a whole person—with their own personality, emotions, and way of learning—and I work to support them with patience, consistency, and respect. I value routines, clear communication, and creating calm, nurturing environments where children can explore, grow, and build confidence at their own pace. My philosophy is rooted in connection first. When children feel emotionally secure, everything else follows—learning, behavior, and independence. I partner closely with parents because consistency between home and care matters. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and intentional in the way I show up each day. Caring for children isn’t just something I do—it’s work I take seriously, with heart and purpose.
