Empower Your Birth

“Research shows that having a doula provides multiple benefits for both mother and baby, including a 28% reduction in cesarean rates and a decrease in the need for forceps and vacuum-assisted births. Women supported by doulas also report less use of epidurals, shorter labor times, and babies with higher APGAR scores. These positive outcomes are attributed to the physical, emotional, and continuous support that doulas provide during labor and delivery”.

My Story

As a doula with nine years of experience, I’ve always provided nonjudgmental, compassionate care for all families. Recently, however, I’ve felt a strong calling to offer a dedicated space for Jewish families, honoring the unique cultural and spiritual elements of Jewish traditions surrounding birth. My mission is to create a safe, inclusive environment where Jewish values and beliefs are respected and seamlessly integrated into the birth experience, ensuring families feel fully supported throughout their journey.
