Hi there! My name is Dr. Arantzazu Cioce and I like to go by Zazu. I’m a Pelvic and Orthopedic Physical Therapist, Birth Doula and educator and leader of the Integrated Woman Movement focusing on reconnecting to our intuitive spirit while using the best of science for a fully supported pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. I live in the Pascack Valley of Northern NJ and see clients in my office and virtually. I enjoy all things science and energetic in nature and love to be outside taking in the beauty of the natural world. Along these lines, I believe there is a balance to be found in birth using what we know can help our bodies during this transition and utilizing medical intervention when it’s necessary, and that balance is unique to every birthing person and family. My role is to connect you to your options, education and to the wisdom your body has in it already!

My name is Arlene Maynard and I draw upon 27 years of experience supporting families during the early days of parenthood as both a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula.One of the most valuable lessons I have learnt is the importance of individualized support. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse array of families, including 74 sets of twins, 4 sets of triplets, and 1 set of quads. Each family's dynamics presented unique challenges, and I have come to appreciate that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to care. By actively listening and tailoring my support to meet their specific needs, I have been able to foster a nurturing environment that empowers parents and promotes the well-being of their newborns. My commitment to professional growth has led me to become a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, a Certified Postpartum Doula, a Cache certified Newborn Care Specialist, an Advanced NCS through the NCSA, a Certified Perinatal Behavior Coach, and I am trained in the RIE method as well the Direct Connect Nurture method. My CPR certification further demonstrates my dedication to ensuring a safe atmosphere for newborns. These experiences have enriched my ability to provide comprehensive care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of families. I find great fulfillment in witnessing families gain confidence in their parenting skills and strive to create a supportive environment where they can share concerns and celebrate milestones. Throughout my years as a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, it has reinforced my belief in the transformative power of compassion, education, and community support. I am enthusiastic about gaining an opportunity to provide exceptional care for families as they navigate this rewarding yet challenging journey of welcoming a new life.
