I am a certified postpartum doula, lactation counselor, mother, and designer. I was born in NYC and grew up between Brooklyn and Honolulu, where my parents met. Surrounded by natural beauty in Hawaii, I became really interested in plants and studied the ways they're used as natural medicine in indigenous cultures. I dove further into holistic wellness and lived in an ashram in India, where I obtained my yoga teaching certification. It became clear to me that one can be healed by connecting the mind and body with nature. I love to create nourishing meals that incorporate healing herbs to nurture the body into a balanced state of well-being. After I birthed my son, I really understood the challenges in postpartum and importance of supporting and honoring new parents in their special journey. I feel empowered to help postpartum families through one of the biggest transitions of their lives, to make them feel supported and provide resources in areas where they may feel uninformed. I currently reside in Ridgewood, NY and enjoy yoga, cooking, dancing, and tending my medicinal herb garden.

Hello! My name is Julie (they/she), and I am a full-spectrum doula keen on prioritizing care work that centers being an advocate, joy-seeker, and companion for families and individuals desiring community support during periods of great transition. As a full-spectrum doula, I offer my services of care for a range of experiences within the perinatal lifecycle: pregnancy, birth, postpartum, abortion, loss, and beyond. And above all - I aspire to connect pregnant and birthing people with themselves and their communities so that family networks can thrive during these liminal spaces and incredible rites of passage - however they may unfold. Whatever your personal story is, I hope to uplift and embrace it, non-judgmentally supporting families and providing a tailored alchemy of emotional, educational, logistical, and advocacy support in planning and preparing for the journey you are about to embark on. All families deserve to be held with care during these transitions, and I look forward to welcoming all the emotions that come up to help you find the most powerful, informed, safe, loving experience you can imagine.

My name is Carynne Martin and I was born, raised and currently reside in NYC. I have recently answered my calling to be a birth doula to serve birthing individuals from all walks of life.

Dr. Eleanor McGlinchey specializes in therapy for depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship difficulties, emotion regulation, and child & adult sleep problems. I am also particularly interested in helping new parents who are struggling with either their baby's sleep or their own sleep (or both!). Sleep and rest are often neglected in our lives. Yet as soon as we prioritize it, we find it evades us. My goal is to help you find rest – whether that means changing your behaviors to promote better quality sleep, challenging worries that drain your energy, or equipping you with effective communication skills to build the social support you need to thrive in your daily rhythm. As a sleep specialist, I will help you uncover and change habits and thoughts that are holding you back from restful sleep and full daytime energy. I also specialize in treating depression, anxiety and relationship concerns and I strive to remain curious about your specific experiences so I understand how best to help. We will work together to help you discover ways to connect meaningfully with the people in your life and challenge assumptions that may be holding you back from realizing your full self-worth.

A Birth advocate for mothers reach their birth plans, into safe labor. Passionate about doula services its amazing we save lives. Also, a postpartum doula to gain access to families needs of less stress into motherhood.

I am a mother to a 5 year old and have loved children since I was a child myself. I have always been someone who enjoys helping people. I started on the path towards nursing, earning my Associate’s degree in Fall of 2022. After mostly completing my degree in summer of 2022, I realized my personality wouldn't shine in nursing. I am more empathetic and personable, which lead me to becoming a doula. I started with birth doula in August and it opened my eyes to my passion for birthwork. Shortly after, I took the postpartum doula workshop. That led me to also taking infant CPR, and earning a certified lactation support counselor as well. I am looking forward to sitting for the Lamaze CBE exam Fall of 2023. I have worked with families both prior to these certifications and currently and I can’t wait to explore and learn more

I am a perinatal mental health certified art psychotherapist supporting those who identify as caregivers in cultivating creative resilience. My psychotherapy approach is grounded in principles of cultural humility, humanism, and the healing power of an empathic creative process. I believe that the act of creating something——in any form——with embodied, full presence can combat burnout and stress symptoms, while engaging the symbolism within a work of art or art-making process can lead to insight into deeper conflict or sometimes hidden issues through the safe distance of metaphor. Whether it's through verbal psychotherapy, an active creative process, or combination of the two, the lens through which we explore concerns is focused on self discovery, healing, and empowerment.

Hey Moms-to-be! Are you feeling excited, nervous, or a bit of both about your upcoming birth journey?

No matter the circumstances, I'm here to offer a listening ear, a reassuring presence, and unwavering support. While no one has all the answers, I'm equipped with knowledge and resources to help navigate the birthing process with confidence. From basic childbirth education to specialized techniques, I'm here to provide you with the information you need to make informed decisions. Pregnancy and childbirth can be overwhelming, especially when faced with the unknown. I offer patience, kindness, and a calming presence to ease any fears or anxieties you may have along the way. Feel free to reach out to schedule a consultation or simply to chat. I can't wait to get to know you and be a part of your beautiful birth story.
