Dear Esteemed Families, I am Carolina, a dedicated and compassionate Postpartum Doula, devoted to providing exemplary support to families during the transformative period following the arrival of a new family member. As a seasoned parent myself, having navigated the complexities of raising a 17-year-old son, I have garnered invaluable insight into the joys and challenges inherent in this life event. With unwavering empathy and expertise, I am committed to delivering personalized care to new families, empowering parents with confidence, compassion, and fostering meaningful connections. My steadfast dedication is to create a nurturing environment, conducive to the wellbeing and flourishing of families during this pivotal life transition. Sincerely, Carolina

I’m Katie Galvin, Postpartum Doula and Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutritional Practitioner. After my own experience with “postpartum anxiety & depression,” (which was really undiagnosed postpartum thyroiditis) I decided to become a functional practitioner to help other moms navigate common postpartum hormonal changes using a holistic approach. Conventional medicine often fails new moms by dismissing their concerns or offering pills as the only solutions to common (but not normal) symptoms like: anxiety, depression, irregular/heavy/painful periods, insomnia, hot flashes, etc. There are better options! I use functional lab testing to identify imbalances in the body and help bring it back into balance through functional nutrition and lifestyle changes so moms can get back to feeling their best!

My name is Shante, and I am passionately dedicated to guiding women through the transformative journey of childbirth as a birth Doula. With an unwavering commitment to empowering women, I have made it my mission to ensure that every woman I support enters motherhood with confidence, informed choices, and a positive birth experience. One of my areas of expertise is hospital birth, emotional support, and the labor techniques. By skillfully assisting mothers in optimizing fetal positioning, I enhance their chances of a smoother and more comfortable labor. This technique aligns with my commitment to ensuring that the birthing process is as natural and harmonious as possible. In addition, I am well-versed in Hypno-Birthing, a practice that harnesses the power of the mind-body connection to alleviate fear and discomfort during labor. Beyond the physical aspects of childbirth, I recognize the paramount importance of emotional and mental support. I stand by each woman's side as an encouraging voice, providing a safe space for her to express her feelings and fears. My role extends beyond the birthing process itself, encompassing the entire spectrum of emotions that come with the transition to motherhood. As a birth Doula, my commitment to women's well-being goes beyond a profession – it is my calling. I am driven by the knowledge that I have the privilege to make a profound impact on the lives of both mothers and their newborns. My ultimate goal is to facilitate an experience that is not only empowering but also sets the foundation for a strong and nurturing bond between mother and child. I am here to provide guidance, support, and advocacy.

My journey began in outdoor education, specializing in working with children and emphasizing positive psychology. Venturing into the birthing realm ignited my passion, driven by the uniqueness of every birth and family I encounter. In my practice, I prioritize empowering you and your partner through informed discussions to shape and advocate for your personalized goals.

During the crucial weeks and months of postpartum recovery, my aim is multifaceted. From aiding with breastfeeding to organizing and tidying your home, caring for other children in the household, supporting meal preparation, and facilitating your rest and self-care, I'm dedicated to your holistic well-being. Understanding that support manifests differently for each individual, I'm committed to tailoring a bespoke plan that resonates with your unique requirements. My goal is to ensure you feel comprehensively supported on your journey. I'm eagerly anticipating our meeting and the opportunity to forge a meaningful connection with you.

Hello parents. I am a newly trained doula, currently in the process of getting certified. I am extremely excited and grateful to work with you. Though I have very little experience, I will do my best to make labor as comforting as I can.

I used to be a nurse in Brazil for 16 years. I would like to proceed in this area because I have always enjoyed working with prenatal and natal stages, including babies aged 0-6 months in the hospital. I decided to concentrate more on being a doula since it encompasses more of what I love to do. I have worked as a combination of an at-home nurse and post-birth baby care for mothers fresh out of the hospital. But since moving here instead of being a nurse again, I have decided to be a certified doula.
