Hi, I’m Shterna, a birth doula serving Scranton, Pennsylvania and surrounding areas. I’m also a mother of three, and my own experiences with birth are part of what led me to this work. I support women through pregnancy, labor, birth, and the early postpartum period with a calm, quiet presence. My goal is to support each woman in her flow, to meet her where she is and offer steady support as her experience unfolds in its own way. Birth is such a pivotal and sensitive time, and the transition into the early days afterward can feel just as tender. Every woman deserves to feel fully supported through it all emotionally, physically, and without judgment. My role is to hold space for that experience while offering reassurance, comfort measures, guidance, and continuous support throughout pregnancy, labor, birth, and the early postpartum period. I believe there is no one right way to give birth. Every experience is unique, and every woman’s needs are different. I’m there to support your experience to help you feel cared for, grounded, and supported through one of life’s most transformative seasons. As part of my care, I offer a prenatal visit to support you in preparing for birth. This time can be used to create or refine your birth plan, and I also offer a full body assessment through the Body Ready Method with personalized exercises to help prepare your body for labor and birth. I also offer a postpartum visit focused on rest, recovery, and support in the early days after birth. This may include meal support, caring for your baby or older children, or giving you time to shower and rest. My focus is on helping you feel cared for, grounded, and supported as you adjust to life with your baby. I accept both private pay and Geisinger Medicaid clients.

Hi! My name is Jocelyn and I am a Mama of 4! I am a post partum doula and have my bachelors in child development! Infants are my passion! I love being able to help and be there in this fragile time!

After accompanying my own family members through their births, having such a close relationship with my own mother, being with her through the complications she’s had with her second pregnancy, and working with young kids, I have seen first hand what happens when a parent, whether new to the community or a veteran, has community. A tribe that they can rely on, that shows up in their most vulnerable times of their life. Every parent deserves to feel safe, heard respected and advocated for. Every birth is different, my goal is to make sure your choices are supported.

Hi, my name is Kelli Reeves. I am a certified Birth Doula located in Stroudsburg PA, providing support in the Poconos and Lehigh Valley.

I have personal and professional experience in hospital and home birth settings. I firmly believe that having calm, confident support in the room can make a big difference.

I am a mom of 3 in Columbia, NJ and currently working as a postpartum doula. My own journey in motherhood and specifically the postpartum period felt very isolating, and I am here now to give mothers the support I wish I had and what I think every family should have.

I’m a caregiver who believes children thrive best when they feel safe, seen, and genuinely understood. I approach each child as a whole person—with their own personality, emotions, and way of learning—and I work to support them with patience, consistency, and respect. I value routines, clear communication, and creating calm, nurturing environments where children can explore, grow, and build confidence at their own pace. My philosophy is rooted in connection first. When children feel emotionally secure, everything else follows—learning, behavior, and independence. I partner closely with parents because consistency between home and care matters. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and intentional in the way I show up each day. Caring for children isn’t just something I do—it’s work I take seriously, with heart and purpose.

I have a passion for pregnancy, physiological birth, and postpartum. My goal is to provide women and families with gentle, encouraging, and educational support that helps to build the birthing experience into a cherished family memory. I believe in traditional wisdom and that birth is a rite of passage. I am passionate about helping women awaken that power within themselves and reclaim birth. I believe in mothering the mother. I believe in our bodies divine design and its ability to bring forth life. I believe in women, not the system. I believe women were created to have a village.

Hello everyone! My name is Soleil Townes, I am the owner of Evangeline Birthing Services, which provides full-spectrum doula services to those in select counties in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I have a passion for helping queer families of color have beautiful birth experiences and receive the support they need whether that is grief support or adoption support. I fell in love with birth work during my years at Montclair State University where I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Family Sciences and Human Development. While there, I took a class called “Medical Humanities” where I learned the different health disparities different ethnicities have faced in our health care system. What stood out to me was how Black birthing persons have such high birthing mortality rates. And upon further research, I stumbled upon the beauty and importance of birth work. I have always had a passion for helping queer families of color, and this shines through my work. I have over 5 years of childcare experience before becoming a doula. When I'm not working, I spend my free time expanding my hobbies: video games, reading, attending comic and anime conventions, community service, watching cartoons, and creating handmade jewelry.
