Birth Doula Support
“Even though my experience with her was short, she went so insanely above and beyond all my expectations. She helped me mentally and physically prepare and get through a marathon birth that felt like it would never end. If you are considering working with her to support your growing family, you absolutely will not be disappointed. We couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you, Maria! We will never forget you and you will always be a part of the most special and important moment of our lives.” – Eva, philadelphia doula client hired at 36 weeks
“I felt way more informed and safer with you there.” – Sam, Abington doula client
“Thank you so much for what you do. I really don’t believe I would still feel like I had a positive birth if you weren’t with me. It wasn’t the birth I expected or wanted, but it definitely wasn’t negative.” – Shyanne, Bucks county doula client
Our birth doula support provides prenatal support and education, continuous labor support from when you call for us until 1-2 hours after birth, and postpartum follow up. There is no right or wrong way to birth, but however you birth, you deserve one-to-one tailored support throughout the duration of your labor and birth. You and your partner do not have to navigate birth alone. Our doula support helps you feel safe, supported, informed, and aids you in being an active participant in making decisions that feel right for your birth. We limit the number of clients we take to ensure you have true continuous support during labor.
Childbirth Education
“When parents take my class, my goal is that they leave feeling confident in their ability to make the choices that feel right for them. My class is designed to make sure parents feel safe to explore their options with caring and professional support.” – Maria
Our comprehensive childbirth classes are based on the idea that birth is a profound life event which offers opportunities for learning and growth. These classes can be taken at any stage in your pregnancy. Our classes involve both education and exploration of feelings about pregnancy, birth, and parenting. When you complete this class you will feel empowered, informed, and ready for birth.
During our classes we cover: Comfort measures for labor, relaxation techniques, VBAC preparation, reducing the risk of cesarean birth, options for birth, postpartum wellness, breastfeeding, and more!
Postpartum Doula Care
“When I work with a family during the postpartum period I want them to feel safe to make the choices that feel best for them. I will always provide evidenced based information and will support you through your parenting journey as you choose what is best for your family.” – Maria
As postpartum doulas, we provide support to families as they adjust to life with a new baby or babies. The “fourth” trimester, known as the weeks immediately following a birth, is a time of healing, excitement and adjustment. We are here to offer non judgmental support as you find your parenting style. We are an extra set of hands with infant care, infant feeding and breastfeeding knowledge to help minimize some of the stress so you and your family enjoy your new baby!
Parenting & Sleep Support
“No one can do it all. As doulas, sleep coaches, and moms, we know this! So we’re here to help support you in finding a sleep and parenting plan right for your home.” – Maria
No parent is surprised to learn that sleep deprivation has been used as a form of torture. Not getting enough sleep is brutal. We’re here to help!
Whether you need an hour to ask questions and come up with a plan or you’d like one of our sleep consultants to observe in your home, we have the knowledge to provide you with the tools you need to get more sleep. Sleep is vital for your wellness and your baby’s development.
Professional Development/Mentoring For New Doulas
“Finding the passion and training to become a doula is easy! Figuring out how to turn that passion into a real career? That takes some guidance.” – Maria
As an experienced doula, childbirth educator, and parent educator, I know what it takes to turn your passion for supporting families into a viable career. You can help families have empowering births, supported postpartum transitions, and early parenthood confidence while meeting your own career needs.
Whether you need doula mentorship, content creation for your website, or you have specific training goals, I’m here to help! Not a Philadelphia doula? Services available virtually.
