When I found out I was expecting, I felt a mix of excitement and anxiety. I knew I wanted support during my pregnancy and birth, but I wasn’t entirely sure what that would look like. After some research, I decided to hire a doula, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made. From our first meeting, my doula was a calming presence. She not only helped me prepare emotionally for labor, but also educated me about my options, answered all my questions, and helped me feel more confident in my choices. During labor, she was a steady source of support, guiding me in each choice . Having a doula made my birth experience so much easier and lovely . I felt respected. Thank you for everything ??

Tamar Soosi

Here's a professional bio you can use for networking groups, your website, speaking events, or referral introductions: My name is Tamari Soosi, and I am the founder of Doda Doula (dodadoula.org). I am a birth doula, postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and lactation support professional dedicated to helping families feel informed, supported, and confident throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, and infant feeding. My passion for birth work began through my love of supporting families and caring for children. Over the years, I realized I wanted to provide deeper support during the transition into parenthood, which led me to pursue professional training in birth support, childbirth education, postpartum care, and lactation. I continue to expand my knowledge through ongoing education in trauma-informed care and women's health. As a doula, I believe every family deserves evidence-based information, compassionate support, and the opportunity to make informed decisions that align with their values and goals. I am especially passionate about helping families build confidence, reduce fear, navigate challenges, and feel empowered throughout their parenting journey. My skills include emotional and physical labor support, comfort measures, birth planning, partner preparation, advocacy, postpartum recovery support, newborn care education, breastfeeding and feeding guidance, and creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where families feel heard and respected. My approach is warm, honest, trauma-informed, and centered on meeting each family where they are. Through Doda Doula, my goal is to ensure that no parent feels alone as they navigate one of life's most meaningful transitions. 🤍

I believe that with the right sensitive approach and careful assistance, a family can quickly adjust to their new addition to their family. Before i start a job, i meet with the family online and carefully assess the family's dynamics to determine their unique needs. I am here to meet each family wherever they are. Supporting them through tangible tasks, navigating feedings, diaper changes, baby's laundry, sleep training and light cleaning up, while nourishing them with home-cooked meals, or simply holding non-judgmental talk space for anything that's on their mind. Carefully monitoring the mother's physical and mental healing and the babies growth and development. Postpartum care is my passion and my unltimate goal is to empower the parents, providing them with the resources, knowledge and skills they will need to continue their postpartum journey comfortably even when my duties ends. Allowing the mother to rest and recover quicker, also allowing the father to rest as well. For bookings i can be contacted by my cell: 934-867-6890 or email: bennettdebbie7575@gmail.com

Debbie was incredible support during the first few weeks of caring for our newborn daughter as I recovered from delivery and we adjusted to parenthood as first-time parents. Her top priority was always our daughter’s care, handling everything related to her needs, including diaper changes, laundry, and organizing her belongings. Debbie is kind, patient, respectful, and extremely professional. She made us feel comfortable and confident while teaching us essential newborn care skills, from diapering and feeding to bathing and soothing. Beyond hands-on care, she helped us stay organized, offered thoughtful product recommendations, and shared valuable tips for the future. Her knowledge, calm demeanor, and supportive approach made a meaningful difference during such a sensitive and important time in our lives.
