Hi! I'm Jossy, like Josie and the Pussycats. I am the middle child of 3 girls coming from a huge latin family from Staten Island, NY. From my early years, I have been privileged to support new mothers and their precious babies within my own family, a journey that has shaped my commitment to serving with compassion and grace. I believe that my nurturing spirit and peaceful demeanor, guided by faith and supported by evidence-based practices and resources, are invaluable during these sacred moments in life. Professionally, I have dedicated years supporting women on their fertility journeys as a care advocate. As a Doula, I believe my nurturing and calm spirit, combined with evidence-based resources for decision-making, are essential during such sacred moments in our lives. My vision is to build caring, trusting, and honest relationships with the families I serve, honoring their birth and postpartum preferences. Whether I serve you as a fertility, birth or postpartum doula, I know the impact we will make on each other will be a forever treasured. My mission is to empower expecting parents with the confidence and knowledge to embrace each milestone on their journey to parenthood. Outside of my doula work, I cherish staying active with my husband, sharing coffee moments with friends, and reveling in the beauty of nature. I am eager to connect with you and explore how I can support you on this remarkable path. Together, let's embrace this journey with faith and joy!

I can't say enough great things about Jossy. We hired her as our postpartum doula for the first six weeks following the birth of my son. From the moment I first spoke with her, I was drawn to her easygoing attitude and comforting nature - I spoke with a number of doulas, and Jossy was the one I felt most at ease with. The conversation flowed naturally, and it was immediately clear how much she loves being a doula. Even though Jossy was only helping us with postpartum care, she was so sweet in sending regular check-ins leading up to my due date and giving tips and suggestions for issues I was dealing with. When I first met Jossy in person, I immediately felt completely comfortable around her and felt comfortable having her in our home and with our son. She quickly felt like a friend I could confide in and joke around with, which made all the difference in the first few weeks of postpartum. Jossy was so loving and sweet with our son, and it was so clear that she cared very deeply about his safety, wellbeing and happiness. After our overnights, she was always checking in to see how she was doing and offering ideas and suggestions of things to try with him. No matter how tired she was after back-to-back overnights, Jossy always arrived on time and with a smile. She was also so sweet with our high energy dog. Thank you Jossy for everything (and I wish we could have you to help us forever)!

Hi there, I’m Shellecia, a full-spectrum doula with a heart for nurturing families. Im located in Northern, NJ and am passionate about serving, educating, and uplifting mothers as they step into the sacred journey of motherhood. My desire is for every family to feel seen, fully supported, and deeply confident as they grow. I believe children are precious gifts from the Lord, arrows in the hands of warriors, both powerful and precious! I carry the blessing of Abba’s peace, love, and encouragement into every home I enter.

I had the absolute best experience with Shellecia as my doula during my pregnancy with my daughter. From the very beginning, she made me feel supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. She came to my home and gave me so many tools to help me labor more comfortably, things I had never even heard of before. She took her time educating me, reassuring me, and easing every fear I had. One of the most helpful things she taught me and my partner were different positions and techniques we could use together to manage the intensity of contractions. They made such a difference when it was time to give birth. In the delivery room, Shellecia was truly my advocate. She asked important questions I didn’t even realize needed to be asked and was pretty much my voice entire process. Having her there felt like having a professional and a friend all in one. I’m so grateful for her guidance, knowledge, and calming presence. I highly recommend Shellecia to anyone looking for a doula she is truly amazing at what she does.

Ayesha is a certified doula and childbirth educator. She provides childbirth education to all her clients upon hire. Each client has different needs; therefore, she is willing to adjust and tailor each contract individually based on what support is needed. The services provided include pregnancy support, labor and delivery support, and postpartum support. For pregnancy support, Ayesha is available 24/7 upon hire to answer any non-medical questions. Ex- what to expect at doctor appointments. She also has personal experience with 2 pregnancies. For labor and delivery support, Ayesha can provide education and coping strategies for pain management and relaxation. Ex- positive affirmations, positioning, massages. She is a strong advocate for her clients and can communicate her clients’ preferences to others if needed. This is due to her experience working with nurses in her previous corporate job as a healthcare recruiter. For postpartum support, Ayesha can provide emotional companionship. Her postpartum services are similar to a “mommy’s helper” where she can do laundry, groceries, and/or babysit if needed as requested by the client.

I can't say enough wonderful things about my friend Ayesha Rahman as a doula. From the moment I met her, it was clear she was passionate about supporting mothers through one of the most transformative experiences of their lives. Her calming presence, extensive knowledge, and genuine care make her an invaluable asset during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She goes above and beyond to ensure her clients feel empowered, informed, and supported every step of the way. When I was pregnant my second child, she would give me advice on my labor and delivery to make me feel more comfortable with the whole process. Our children were roughly the same age. She gave me a lot of support throughout pregnancy and made me feel calm about my birth plan decisions. I highly recommend Ayesha to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled doula.

The doula meets with the birthing person and their support person to discuss their prenatal needs, birthing preferences, and birthing environment choices - home birth; birthing center; or hospital. The doula also providers referrals to the appropriate medical personnel (primary care, OBGYN, Midwife, specialists, CLC (certified lactation counselor, IBCLC ( International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), etc) when it is determined that any issue(s) are out of the scope of practice of the doula. The doula facilitates communication between the birthing person and the medical team, helping to ensure that the birthing person's preferences and concerns are heard and understood

Shamon made me feel completely supported and cared for. From our very first virtual meeting, she created such a calm, reassuring presence through every message, video call, and check-in. She was always available to answer my questions, help me prepare mentally and emotionally, and remind me that I wasn’t alone in this journey. During labor, her guidance helped me stay focused, confident, and grounded. Her words of encouragement and gentle coaching made a world of difference. After birth, she continued to check in and offer support, helping me adjust and reminding me to care for myself as well as my baby. I’m so grateful for her kindness, patience, and knowledge. If you’re looking for a doula who provides genuine love, care, and empowerment, Shamon is absolutely amazing. ??
