As a mom of two young ones, one being autistic, I know the difficulty of being a parent with unique challenges. Each of us have them. I'm a believer in post partum parents being prioritized by a caretaker. Need a shower? I'll hold the colicky baby. Rest? I'll cuddle your babe. Food? Do you like cookies? I'm here for you. I will certainly love your child as my own, but you need someone looking out for you too. I'll be that gal.

I’m Maria, and I also go by Mayte. I am a birth and postpartum doula, Medical Assistant, mother, emotional-support practitioner, and founder of Luna Moon Doula. My experience in reproductive healthcare allows me to understand pregnancy and birth from inside the clinical environment. I know how quickly appointments can move, how overwhelming medical language can feel, and how easily a family’s emotional needs can disappear behind procedures, monitors, and decisions. For the past two years, I have also been pursuing the educational pathway toward becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I offer compassionate, evidence-informed breastfeeding and infant-feeding education—from preparing before birth to supporting positioning, latch, milk supply, pumping, and the early feeding ransitions. My approach bridges clinical knowledge with deeply personal, holistic care. Depending on what feels supportive to you, I may incorporate movement, breathing, emotional grounding, visualization, and the calming sound of singing bowls. I welcome every family and support unmedicated, medicated, induced, vaginal, and cesarean births with the same respect and care. Support is available in English and Spanish.

Nothing fills my cup quite like this work, and it is truly my honor and privilege to be there with you as you step into your new role and get to know your baby. I've spent the past decade learning and centering my work in perinatal care, supporting patients on their fertility journeys, supporting healthy pregnancies, teaching childbirth education, and nourishing new families with food and support as they find their feet as parents to a new baby.

Hi, I'm Larisa — a certified Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, bilingual in English and Russian. Before training as a doula, I spent two years working in a skilled nursing facility as a nurse assistant, caring for both long-term residents and patients recovering from surgery. That experience taught me how to read what a person needs even when they can't quite say it, and how to build real trust with families during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. I raised my own child largely on my own, including four exhausting months of colic, so I know firsthand what it feels like to be running on no sleep and unsure where to turn. That's part of why I do this work: I want every family I support to feel less alone in those early weeks. I offer both day and overnight support, and whichever shift I'm with you, my focus is the same: helping you rest, heal, and feel genuinely cared for while I take care of your baby. Whether that means letting you nap while I watch the baby, helping with a feeding routine, or simply being a calm, steady presence in the room, I center your physical recovery and comfort as much as your baby's wellbeing. My approach is gentle, practical, and judgment-free — I show up ready to listen first and adapt to what your family actually needs.
