A Message from Miranda:
Hello! I can’t wait to meet and get to know you! I’m Miranda, a passionate, radiant, feminine, Puerto Rican mother, Full-Spectrum Doula, Certified Lactation Counselor, & Placenta Specialist. I am the founder of The Mothership & Co-founder of The Harlem Doula Collective. I was born, raised and am currently residing in New York City. (But you can take my class from anywhere in the world!) I received my training at Ancient Song Doula Services and my mentorship with The Cannabis Doula. It is my passion to aim to change the narrative, emphasize & highlight the sacredness of parenthood, & build community, inclusive of all types of families. I love empowering families throughout their journey to parenthood, navigating the ins and outs of systems and processes in the medical industrial complex, making sure families are heard and their needs are met. I teach a monthly class on breastfeeding, provide private childbirth education classes, and host MomWow - a monthly pregnancy / mom support group.

What other parents have said about the class:
"I really appreciated how informative it was. I knew a lot about the biology of birth and babies, but what we learned was just very impressive. It was a really good experience—fairly chill, fairly laid-back, and not nearly as awkward as I thought it might be. All the information—I never would’ve thought there was that much information out there! If we hadn’t have taken this class, it would have been significantly more stressful.” –DS
“Sign up! You’ll feel more prepared for your baby and your partner.” – JF
“It was the advocacy portion for me. The scripts helped us to feel super prepared.” – RP
