I am Karee' (car)REE, ya' homegirl who just so happens to be, a full spectrum doula, energy healer, Level II Reiki Practitioner, and Womb Wellness practitioner. Also known as The Original Coochie Gangster of The OCG Collective. I've been blessed to do the work of the women—whether that's helping a woman reconnect to her womb through ceremony, supporting a mother and family through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, termination, and/or the grand transition we know as death. My mission is to hold a sacred space where I can support and empower individuals through the divinely guided transitions they choose to share with me.

Hello! My name is Crystal, and as a wife, mom of three, and registered nurse of almost 20 years, I’ve always been drawn to helping others. But it was the alarming reality of our nation’s maternal morbidity and mortality rate that truly ignited my passion. Despite our advanced medical care, too many women are suffering, and I believe it's due to a lack of holistic support. I'm here to change that. As a labor and postpartum doula and childbirth educator, I'm committed to providing compassionate care and evidence-based information to empower women and families. Let's work together to create a safer, more supportive birthing experience.

Pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood are monumental rites of passage. It is my deepest desire that all families feel seen, supported, and well-resourced through the journey of bringing a child into the world. As a birth and postpartum doula, I am dedicated to offering unbiased support, evidence-based information, and a warm, grounded presence. I am here to walk alongside you and tend to your needs on your unique path to parenthood. My approach is rooted in a blend of traditional wisdom, modern research, and my own experience as a mother and care provider. I value informed consent and strive to ensure the families I work with feel educated and prepared for the profound, transformational experience awaiting them. I deeply trust in the innate wisdom of the body, birth, and maternal instinct. My intention as a birth companion is to be an unwavering source of confidence in your ability to birth your baby. It’s truly an honor to be trusted in such intimate spaces, and it’s a role I don’t take lightly. I am continually humbled by the beauty of witnessing these tender moments. In my downtime, you'll find me spending time with my family, exploring the forest, baking, and nerding out about women's health.

Hi, I’m Marie McKenzie, also known as Dr. Soul — a holistic practitioner specializing in subconscious reprogramming, soulful healing, and nurturing the family dynamic as a full-spectrum doula.

In my work, I blend the scientific and spiritual, honoring the sacred transitions families move through during pregnancy, birth, and beyond. I help nurture the familial foundation of my clients, ensuring both parents are emotionally, mentally, and physically prepared to welcome the new soul entering their lives. Within the safe space we co-create, you’ll feel held, informed, and empowered as you navigate your birth and postpartum journey. I’m here to advocate for you and ensure that you — and your support system — understand your rights and feel confident making informed decisions.As a practitioner, I meet each client exactly where they are and approach my work with deep intentionality, ensuring you receive not just what you asked for — but what you didn’t know you needed. Would you honor me with the opportunity to walk with you during this sacred chapter of your life?

Hello! My name is jabria but I go by Rosalind. It was a nickname given to me in the Army. My background is 12 years of medicine as a medic in the Army. I am still serving in the Army national guard. I have my certified personal training certification and group fitness certification; and I am currently enrolled in exercise physiology through Concordia University, in pursuit of practicing medicine as a physician assistant upon completion of my bachelors in Fall 2026; and masters hopefully 2028. I pursued becoming a doula because I have always been passionate about women’s health. In fact, I took up personal training because I wanted to help women in postpartum combat depression and snap back to theirselves. I witnessed many friends struggle with taking the army physical fitness test and figured there had to be some way to be of some impact for all women who may deal with this, in either their career or daily life. Being a doula is important to me because I believe that women need more support in child birth and labor. I want to be apart of breaking the stigma with childbirth being painful and scary. I want to be apart of making childbirth more comfortable and a beautiful experience for women. I also believe with my expertise that I could offer packages that benefit women physically and mentally pre and post partum.

The Asian Doula Alliance (ADA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and advancing the education of Asian doulas.

Hello there! Welcome and thank you for taking the time to get to know me and the services I offer. I want to take a moment to congratulate you on this incredible journey you are on to becoming a parent. You are taking important steps and doing your research just by being here. We are all experts here. I am an expert on birth and support. You are an expert on your body and your baby. Your partner is an expert on you and your needs. I support all birth plans and recognize that you are an individual and your birth is exactly that, yours. I support you in whatever you desire and choose whether that is an unmedicated birth, medicated birth, induction, planned cesarean, VBAC, home birth, etc. I made the decision to pursue birth work because I had an amazing birth experience and happily shared my story. By sharing, I quickly discovered that many people did not have a positive experience and that traumatic experiences were the norm. This sparked a passion to serve families and help change the narrative of birth experiences. I have served 14 families as a postpartum doula and 53 families as a birth doula over the past 4 years and it is a dream career!

**Bringing Peace, Serenity, & Calm from Preconception Through Pregnancy, Birth & Recovery** Hi, I’m Crystal, a holistic doula, perinatal massage therapist, educator, and guide supporting individuals and families through fertility, pregnancy, birth, and recovery. With over a decade of experience, I offer whole-person care that helps you feel calm, informed, deeply cared for, and confident in the choices you make along the way. I believe these experiences are about more than reaching the next milestone. Whether you're preparing for pregnancy, navigating fertility or infertility, growing your family, preparing for birth, or recovering from pregnancy, your body, mind, and emotional well-being deserve thoughtful support through the transition. My approach brings together bodywork, education, doula care, and personalized guidance to meet you where you are. Some clients come to me for physical relief or support preparing their bodies for what's ahead. Others need help sorting through information, understanding their options, preparing for birth or parenthood, or simply having a calm, knowledgeable person beside them while plans change. There isn't one "right" way to move through fertility, pregnancy, birth, or recovery. My role isn't to fit you into a philosophy or tell you what you should choose. It's to help you understand your options, honor your values, care for your body, and create more peace in whatever season you're navigating. *Because peace of mind comes from understanding your options, not being told what to do.*

Hey everyone, name is Tara Duncan and I am a Certified Postpartum and Infant Care Doula as well as Labor doula through Prodoula. After years of working with children ages 0 to 9 years-old, I finally found her passion caring for families doing doula work. I have been a certified doula since 2018 for postpartum, and 2020 for Labor. I care about the mental health and the functionality of families. I believe that knowledge is power; so I am never done learning so that I am able to provide the best up-to-date support and knowledge for families I serve. I have experience with multiples, tongue-ties, circumcisions, sleep training, prenatal and infant loss training, sibling support, and surrogate support. When I is not doing birth work, you can find me exploring the town, hiking, cooking, doing yoga or watching a movie.

Birth is an experience that most women never forget in their lives. As a mother myself I reflect on my commencement from just being a young adult to becoming a Mother. In reflection I remember every single individual that was involved in not just my labor but my education, comfortability, and exciting changes. I remember feeling so excited but more importantly, so ready. That confidence and clarity as a first time mother is what I want for every woman. As a Doula, it is my passion to teach, encourage and care for the mothers in my care just as my family did for me. I want her to look back on this experience and not remember fear or pain but pride and courage. I look forward to discussing your unique vision for your birth and making this a wonderfully beautiful experience before during and after your delivery.

Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a Certified Perinatal Doula (CPD) and artist based in Providence, Rhode Island. I’ve been supporting birthing families since 2022, but my path to this work started long before then. Living with endometriosis shaped my understanding of how essential it is to feel seen, heard, and supported in healthcare. When I was first learning how to navigate life with endo, I needed someone who could inform, empower, and walk with me through the unknown. Now, I’m honored to be that person for others as a doula. I’m committed to inclusive, compassionate, and evidence-based support. My approach is rooted in deep listening, genuine connection, and a belief that birth can be a powerful, joyful, and transformative experience. I offer support across four pillars: physical, emotional, informational, and advocacy, so that you and your birth partner feel informed, respected, and confident throughout your journey. I also accept Rhode Island-based insurances including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Neighborhood, United, and Medicaid. I’ll help you explore your options, prepare for the unexpected, and make choices that reflect your values. I work collaboratively with your care team to create an easeful, grounded birth environment so you can focus on birthing your baby, your way.
