Philosophy of Care
Giving birth is sacred, and your birth experience truly matters.
Every birthing person has the right to make their own choices regarding their body and birthing experience.
From our first meeting, through your pregnancy, delivery, and into postpartum, I am here to honor you and your journey. I take the time to understand your concerns, needs, and hopes, approaching your care with a whole-person perspective.
My mission is to empower birthing individuals and their families with knowledge and support. Through evidence-based perinatal education, I aim to help you make informed decisions about your pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
As a bilingual Latine doula, I reflect and serve the diverse community I’m proud to be part of. I believe that EVERYONE deserves a doula.
I am in-network with the following insurances:
Neighborhood Health Plan of RI (Medicaid & Commercial)
Harvard Pilgrim HealthCare RI

Additional Services
PostPartum C-Section Care
Massaging the abdomen and scar area with herbal oils is one of the most important Ayurvedic treatments for C-sections. This practice not only helps in healing the scar but also promotes relaxation and improves circulation in the area. Using natural herbs in the oils can provide added benefits, like reducing inflammation and soothing discomfort. So, if you’re looking to speed up recovery and feel better overall, giving your belly a gentle massage with herbal oils is definitely worth considering! Plus, it's a great way to take some time for yourself and connect with your body.
Postpartum Herbal Sitz Bath
A personalized postpartum sitz bath is a gentle, restorative soak created to support healing and comfort after childbirth. Blended with love and organic soothing herbs, mineral-rich salts, each sitz bath is customized to your unique postpartum needs. Designed to promote perineal healing, reduce swelling, and ease discomfort, it can include ingredients like calendula for skin repair, lavender for relaxation, or witch hazel to reduce inflammation. Perfect for hemorrhoid relief, natural tearing, or general postpartum recovery, this nourishing ritual provides a moment of care for your body and spirit during this transformative time.
Yoni (Vaginal) Steaming
Yoni steaming is a gentle, holistic practice that uses herbal-infused steam to support feminine wellness. This soothing ritual helps cleanse, nourish, and restore balance to the pelvic area, promoting relaxation, circulation, and overall well-being. Perfect for postpartum care, menstrual support, or self-care, yoni steaming offers a moment to reconnect with your body and spirit.
Reiki
Reiki is a gentle, energy-healing practice that promotes relaxation, balance, and emotional well-being. During labor and delivery, I incorporate Reiki to create a calm and grounded environment, helping reduce stress, ease tension, and support the natural flow of birth. In the postpartum period, Reiki aids in physical healing, emotional recovery, and provides nurturing support as you adjust to this transformative time. This holistic practice offers comfort and balance for both mind and body during your journey into parenthood.
Encerado
Closing of the Bones, or encerado, is a traditional postpartum ritual that honors and nurtures the birthing person. Using gentle body wrapping, massage, and intentional care, this practice helps “close” the physical and emotional spaces opened during pregnancy and birth. It supports healing, restores balance, and provides a deeply grounding experience to help you reconnect with your body and spirit during the postpartum journey.
