Bethany, Birth & Postpartum Doula, First Aid/CPR/AED Instructor (American Red Cross)
Bethany became interested in birth work after feeling in awe of the birthing experience with her own birth. Despite feeling the wonder and beauty of the birthing experience, she had an isolating birth and postpartum journey. She knew she wanted to be invested in creating a birthing culture that centers the birthing person, increases positive outcomes, and creates community. She believes that choosing a doula is choosing to create a new relationship. Another philosophy she holds is “a doula is who you are, not what you do” (Traci Weaver). When she first talks with someone who wants to have a child or who is expecting, she wants to know what they envision for their birth. What support are they looking for and what support can she offer to help meet their needs and desires? She advocates for the birthing person’s wants and needs to be centered.
She strives to be open, honest, transparent, hold space for different opinions and desires, and to continue her learning through professional mentoring and training. As a labor doula, some of the greatest benefits she offers are: providing evidence-based resources for pregnancy/labor/birth, traditional and cultural wisdom and practices, emotional and practical support during the birth, and postpartum follow up and home visits. As a postpartum doula, some of the greatest benefits she offers are: healing and rest practices, a listening and supportive ear, support and reassurance with baby care and feeding, support with household tasks and cooking, and resources and referrals for your questions and needs.

Anna, CLSC & Postpartum Doula
Anna (She/Her) brings years of experience in serving women and marginalized people, caring for infants, and holding space. She provides care through a trauma informed, anti-racist lens, having trained in culturally competent care for folks across the gender spectrum. Having begun her career as a postpartum doula as a mother of young children, she was driven to provide the care and support to mothers and families that she so greatly benefitted from. Taking a special interest in twins and preemies, she became highly skilled in infant soothing, complicated feeding, and sleep needs.
Anna has recently completed her training in lactation support counseling and now offers lactation services as well as postpartum doula support. Ranging from teaching to troubleshooting, latching and breast pumps to introducing solids and returning to work, Anna approaches lactation support with empathy and non-judgement.
Anna comes from a background in reproductive health care as both a counselor and an administrator. Holding space for people in need was a vital skill she has found crucial in both reproductive justice and postpartum care.
Anna believes strongly in the sacred connection of the postpartum parent/baby (or babies) bond, and centers her care around protecting and nourishing it. She sees it as an honor to hold space for the postpartum parent in this vulnerable and critical time of postpartum, whether that is talking through a difficult birth, advising on lactation or bottle feeding techniques, baby soothing and swaddling, cooking and doing laundry - whatever is needed to ensure that postpartum person’s load is lightened enough that their only care is the baby.
*Insurance reimbursement may be available for lactation services.

Nadiya, Birth & Postpartum Doula
Originally from Ukraine, Nadiya had experience working with women from different countries and backgrounds in Ukraine, Poland and now in the US. She first certified as a yoga teacher and was providing prenatal and postnatal support for women using yoga techniques like pranayama (breath techniques), meditation (for hypnobirthing), asana practice (for easy natural birth). She saw how great an influence yoga practice has on pregnant women, their birth experiences, postpartum recovery, and the health of their new babies.
Then she got interested in midwifery. She was learning traditional midwifery from well-known midwives and fell in love with it. After having a beautiful birthing experience herself, she decided to certify as a doula and started helping women during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journeys.
Nadiya feels the need to be there for a woman in her most vulnerable times, hold that sacred space, believe in a woman, offer comfort and all the other instruments she can to help and support a new mother. Nadiya respects every parents’ choice and desire, and makes sure the woman’s needs are met in the best way possible. Nadiya is a certified yoga teacher (prenatal & postnatal yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Hatha Yoga schools), certified doula (Doula Link and DONA), CPR certified. She also had trainings in rebozo massage, osteopathy, aromatherapy and works with energy.
