about me

A NYC-based doula certified by DONA International, I provide practical, down-to-earth support throughout prenatal planning, labor, delivery, and postpartum. I am skilled in acupressure, massage, photography, and bringing ritual to life cycle events. I also teach workshops such as holistic newborn care, doula information sessions, yoga for labor and delivery, BIRTH: for the non-expecting, and babywearing basics.

I am a native New Yorker who has traveled and lived in Israel, Morocco, Australia, and Europe. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at Vassar College and worked in the music business for many years. But it was through my work as a prenatal and parent-baby yoga instructor, close to home, where I discovered my passion for serving families in their transition to parenthood and helping them navigate their feelings and informational needs for childbirth. I bring perspective, focus, respect, and light-hearted humor to my clients.

I understand that everyone has their own expectations regarding birth – I aim to help families make informed decisions about what they want and to support these goals.
