Larissa Melo Pienkowski

Packages from $1,600

I’m Larissa (she/ela/ella), a birth and postpartum doula based in Philadelphia, PA. My practice is rooted in the beliefs that birth is a sacred act of transformation, that birthing people hold innate wisdom in their bodies, and that we all deserve safe, affirming, size-inclusive reproductive healthcare. As a birthworker, I offer a compassionate and comforting presence, intuitive and evidence-based information, physical support, fierce advocacy, and space for birthing people of all identities to move through pregnancy and labor peacefully and confidently. I myself identify as queer and Latina. Eu falo português e adoraria trabalhar com famílias brasileiras. 🇧🇷 In my free time, I love to cook, read, journal, play volleyball, practice Pilates, and make pottery, and I’m passionate about weaving mindfulness, movement, and nourishment into birthwork in ways that uplift radiant, full-body joy. I’m lucky to live with my wife and our Siberian husky, Olaf, in Germantown, Philadelphia.

Have you ever experienced the joy of working with someone who is so clearly doing what they were meant to do? Such is the radiant experience of working with Larissa as a doula. From our first conversation, I connected with her unique combination if confidence, optimism, and groundedness. She always listened with true intention, never trying to push me any which way but instead helping me figure out my own needs and wants for my pregnancy and delivery. She helped fill in gaps in my knowledge and, most importantly, guided me through tough decisions and helped me feel confident in those decisions. She was equally supportive of my partner and their experience. During labor, delivery, and birth, Larissa was my steadfast advocate, and I delivered a healthy baby. Thank you Larissa!

Robin was such a wonderful addition to our home the first few weeks after welcoming #2. She is so loving and from the moment she stepped in and held our little one, I felt at ease. She cared for the baby, made sure I was physically and emotionally well, and when morning came things were set for our day to start easier. My husband was on the fence about overnight help and as with many families, it ended up being such a good fit for us that we extended the weeks she was with us. Happy to give one on one reference information if needed!

Rasheada Wallace has been an absolute blessing to my family and me during the birth and early postpartum period of our newborn. From the moment we began working together, Rasheada Wallace exceeded our expectations in every way, offering not just professional support, but genuine care and compassion. Rasheada Wallace demonstrated a deep knowledge of birth and postpartum practices, and I felt completely confident in her expertise. Her calm presence and thoughtful guidance helped us navigate every challenge with grace, whether it was providing emotional support during labor or offering practical advice for newborn care. She always took the time to listen to our concerns, answer our questions, and tailor her approach to meet our unique needs. What truly set Rasheada apart was her unwavering dedication to ensuring our well-being as new parents. Her support didn’t end at birth—she continued to check in, offering advice on breastfeeding, infant sleep, and self-care for me as I recovered. Her encouragement and reassurances were invaluable, and her hands-on assistance with our newborn allowed us to adjust to our new role with much more confidence and peace of mind.

My philosophy is rooted in prevention, presence and peace of mind. I believe every family deserves calm, respectful and individualized care as they welcome a new baby. I am there to steady the room—not to take over—so parents can rest, recover, ask questions and become more confident in understanding their baby and trusting themselves. I am passionate about overnight postpartum care, newborn safety, feeding and lactation support, and protecting the emotional well-being of the entire family. With more than 20 years of professional newborn and family-care experience, I understand that every household has its own values, preferences and rhythms. I listen carefully, support without judgment and offer evidence-informed guidance that is thoughtfully adapted to each family.

In the depths of my own postpartum dark night and fear literally spreading through the world on a global level, Bethany was the one simple, easy choice I made with zero regrets. Hmmmm. Do I want a loving, steady, calm, peaceful human being in my home? Do I want someone who will come with a song in her heart and thoughtful activities like children’s Yoga and books about Mrs. Badger’s mountain foraging adventures? Do I want that same thoughtfulness to radiate out to me in how she cares for my home while she’s there…the sink full of dishes done, the million little baby clothes all tidily folded and put away, the real human conversations that allow me today to call Bethany- not only an integral part of my support community-but also a friend? Yes! Yes. Yes. Yes. She’s worth every penny of the investment, and, even more than that…Mama, YOU are worth every penny of the investment. I think we are all waking up to the fact that how mothers and babies are treated matters. Not just to that one family she touches…but to the world as a whole. Bethany has devoted her life to centering the care of women and babies and, if you ask me, there is truly no higher or more impactful calling. 🩷

Charlene Walker

I am a full-spectrum doula offering compassionate support through every stage of the journey — from birth and postpartum to grief and placenta care. My heart is in holding space for all experiences, whether it’s welcoming new life, processing loss, or finding healing in the postpartum period. I believe in the power of connection — not just between parent and baby, but also between people and cultures. I love helping others explore and embrace different traditions, ways of healing, and perspectives from around the world. Through this work, I aim to nurture, uplift, and walk alongside every person I serve with empathy, respect, and deep care.

Recent review

Having a doula is truly worth it, and my experience with Charlene Walker was amazing. We first connected online during the pandemic, and even though she was new to being a doula, her passion for children and helping others really stood out. Charlene later visited me and my kids in Baltimore, attended my doctor’s appointments virtually, and supported me through my planned C-section. She made sure my children were cared for and that I had everything I needed for delivery. She wasn’t just my doula — she felt like family. Charlene kept me calm and reassured throughout my birth experience. During a later doctor’s visit for my son, a nurse mentioned how much she remembered Charlene from the delivery and praised how well she handled things when my baby briefly wasn’t breathing. When I called Charlene about it, she shared that her focus had been making sure I was okay and that she had been in constant contact with the nurses. That meant so much to me. Even now, we stay in touch, and I can always reach out to her for advice or support. Charlene is compassionate, professional, and truly dedicated to her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable doula!

Eilís Crossen

Responds within an hour

Dia duit, hello! I am Eilís and I am a certified doula and full spectrum birth worker in Philadelphia PA. I have long been drawn to pregnancy and birth, and after the birth of my first baby at 16, I first trained to be a doula in 2005. I apprenticed and assisted with midwives for many years, and am also a trauma-informed social worker, herbalist, yoga teacher, and energy and body worker. I weave my experiences and skill sets together, providing intuitive and tailored physical, informational, educational, mental, emotional, and spiritual supports. I see the role of a doula or monitrice as a steward- someone to tend to and watch over the person, couple, family during labor, birth, and postpartum and providing care and remedies as is fit and called for. Every birth, body, baby is unique and I see it as my role to meet everyone where they're at. Some people need every bell and whistle, some people need their back squeezed for 12 hours, some people need a quiet, confident witness to be present, but hands off. I am here for all of that and everything in between. Outside of birth work, I am a mother to seven and I love to garden, cook, learn Irish, swim in all bodies of water, and overall, just have a good time of it.

Eilís was my birth doula for my first child and I couldn't recommend her more! My husband and I felt comfortable immediately the first time we met with her and she met with us several times pre-natal to talk through what I wanted in my birth experience. She was on-call the weeks around my due date and I felt comfortable texting her when I wasn't sure if my contractions had started. Having her with me during labor was so helpful! She offered counter-pressure, suggested positions, helped me navigate decision-making, and talked me through contractions. It was so helpful to have someone on my team with calm confidence. After my baby was born, Eilís met with me several times, she brought me teas, she talked through my birth experience and offered advice on early parenthood. Truly, I would not want to do this again without her!
