Hello! As a birth doula, my intention is to help my clients feel comfortable, confident, and at ease from conception to postpartum. I provide my clients with evidence-based, nonjudgmental, physical and emotional support, and a loving, calming presence. What brings me the most joy in doing this work are the relationships formed, understanding my client’s needs and goals, and supporting them to get there. I’m a mom to two little girls, a former collegiate volleyball player, strength coach, and certified yoga teacher. Functional movement and training have been a part of my life for quite some time, and a significant component of my approach - helping my clients to physically prepare for motherhood. I look forward to connecting and seeing how I can best support you during this season of life!

Hello, My name is Erica Espinal and I am a trained Doula as well as a Licensed Esthetician. I wanted to be become a doula because birth is a life-changing experience and all women deserve to have the opportunity to be given that extra support they might have needed or wanted. As well as being a birth doula, I am also training to be a postpartum doula, because I believe that care and support is needed not only during pregnancy and birth but once the baby is born as well!

I am a certified birth& postpartum doula, as well as CPR& first aide. After having 3 babies of my own, I knew this is exactly the career for me. I know how lonely and tiring the postpartum journey can be, and that’s what I am here for! I’d love to be your extra support. My goal is to actively listen to your needs and wants, and to create a healthy sleep schedule for your baby and you. Rest is very important in the fourth trimester. I can give you resources, suggestions, and advice when needed. I will be there to do some chores as well such as cleaning bottle and pump parts, and doing the baby’s laundry. I’m excited to learn all about your plan, and be there by your side!

Hi, I’m Carrie-Lee! I grew up in a house full of chaos and kids. I'm one of nine siblings, with a mom who ran a home daycare for 30+ years and a sister who is also a nanny. So, caregiving isn’t just what I do, it’s pretty much woven into my DNA! Between that and raising my own three kids, supporting families has always felt like second nature. My oldest is up in Maine, working on building his yurt and achieving the off-grid dream. My middle kid is a Junior at Keene State, fully immersed in the world of theater tech, making sure the show always goes on! And my youngest is a vocalist who will be attending Berklee College of Music this fall. Raising them has been the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done—and proof that every kid comes into this world with their own wild, wonderful personality. When I’m not up late with newborns, you’ll probably find me camping, roller skating, or practicing archery—because balance and precision are key in both work and life. Or at least, that’s what I tell myself! My style is laid back and nonjudgmental. I'm easy going and ready to pivot depending on your needs and how they may change. Providing support so you can rest is what makes this professional rewarding for me.

Hi my name is Jess. I have always known that my gift is to help others heal. Being a doula is a manifestation of that. Birth work is a direct response to the injustice and disparities experienced by BIPOC in the US. And we all have the power to change that narrative. ​​ I look forward to healing with you.

Working with children and their families has been my life’s work, whether being a center-based teacher or in-home care. My biggest and greatest accomplishment has been becoming a mother to my two boys. Being a postpartum doula and lactation educator is another way to share in these magical times and help families adjust to life with a newborn. Having experienced vastly different prenatal, birth, and postpartum experiences with both of my sons, this lit the passion in me to help others during this time when things can be unexpected. Training through CAPPA (Childbirth & Postpartum Professional Association) solidified all the reasons why I want to continue to help support families and be a part of their amazing journey as their family grows. My hands-on experience, becoming a mother and working as a teacher, has shown me just how different each baby and family are. I look forward to sharing your unique beginning with you, creating success in your parenting journey.

Hello! My name is Ava and I am a Postpartum Doula and Reiki Practitioner. My passion is for women’s health. My goal as a doula is to give mom a break to rest and care for herself. Having a baby is a major life transition and I’m happy to do what I can to make it as smooth as possible for your family whether it’s cooking a meal that is healing for mom, watching baby while you rest, tidying up around the house, cleaning bottles, helping your partner get used to being a parent, or just chatting about your birth experience and the motherhood journey! It takes a village and I’d love to be a part of your village!

Hi! I'm Naomi. I am a Certified Practitioner Midwife choosing to focus on providing birth and postpartum doula support. I keep my Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Neonatal Resuscitation (NRP) cards active at all times. I am currently in the process of becoming certified as a postpartum doula. I believe that if women/birthing persons and their babies were truly supported in the way they most need, we would have peace on Earth. I decided to become a midwife and doula because I want to make the world a better place, and I believe the way to do that is to bring compassionate support to mothers and their babies. I received my training through Maternidad La Luz (birth center on the US/Mexico border) and the Childbirth and Postpartum Professional Association (CAPPA). I have attended around 150 births and have provided care for many newborns. I currently run Little Angel Doula and work part time as a midwife assistant for a local home birth practice. My philosophy centers around trusting the birthing body and trusting the process of transition into parenthood. I am a firm believer in the power of gentle touch and calm words, good rest, good nourishment, and laughter. I have confidence in my heart and my hands to be there for you and your child.

Hello my name is Amya, I am 21 years old. I was born and raised in the groton/newlondon area. I am the oldest out of 10, i have 5 sisters and 4 brothers. I love working with newborns and kids. I am a mother myself, My daughter just turned 4 months. Her name is Azariyah. Fun fact - my mom named all of her kids starting with the letter A, so i am keeping the trend going lol. I enjoy taking care of others it comes natural to me. Birth is such a beautiful experience to go through. To me there will never be enough time to soak it all in. Postpartum is very challenging with trying to heal, taking care of yourself and also taking care of your little one. Trust me when i say i know! Everyone parents different, and i am a parent who does not judge ! I would love to help you out with your little one and your transition to feel back to yourself again.
