About me

Hello! My name is Tanesha Jackson CCE, and I am a Certified Childbirth Educator, Postpartum Doula, and Labor Doula ( Trained by CAPPA). I have a passion to help parents during one of the most transformative times in their lives. The journey through parenthood can be a long one. Having a steady support system to help along the way and smooth out the kinks makes the journey easier. I am located in Brooklyn, NY. I have a background in childcare as a professional nanny with 25 years of expertise. My goal as a doula is to offer support that is inclusive and compassionate. I believe in the power of informed choice and the importance of nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. My approach is rooted in respect for each family's unique background, culture, and birthing preferences. I aim to create a safe, supportive environment where families can thrive. During my free time I enjoy a good audiobook and walk through the park with a latte in my hand and playtime with my sweet pomeranian Milo.
