About the Provider

Im a full-spectrum doula with a profound commitment to serving the Latine community, hailing from the vibrant island of Borikén, also known as Puerto Rico. My journey in the world of doula care is not just a profession; it is a passionate advocacy for equal access to support, education, and care throughout the spectrum of pregnancy.

In my soul, I firmly believe that everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, should have access to doula care. The world is riddled with barriers, but I am determined to break them down by advocating for accessible birth, education, and support.

Born and raised in the rich cultural tapestry of Puerto Rico, I draw strength from my roots and proudly represent my community as a Puerto Rican doula. My journey into this field was inspired by a deep conviction that maternal health should be holistic and culturally sensitive.

As a mother of two beautiful souls, I intimately understand the unique needs and challenges faced by expectant and new parents. This personal experience fuels my passion for guiding individuals and promoting their optimal well-being during their birthing journey. I bring together the wisdom of traditional practices and the latest modern techniques to provide compassionate care to those I serve.

Central to my doula practice is my unwavering commitment to fostering a nurturing and inclusive environment. I advocate tirelessly for culturally sensitive support, recognizing that every culture brings its own unique perspectives and traditions to the process of pregnancy and childbirth. I firmly believe that culturally congruent wellness is essential for parents and their families, and I work diligently to ensure that this aspect is woven into every aspect of the care I provide.

In the Latine community, I am a voice for change, a beacon of hope, and a source of support. Through my work as a doula, I aim to empower individuals and their families to make informed choices, find strength in their heritage, and navigate the beautiful but often challenging journey of pregnancy and birth with confidence.

My mission is clear: to break down the barriers that hinder access to doula care and to create a world where every expectant parent, regardless of their background, has the support, education, and care they deserve. Together, we can build a brighter and more inclusive future for maternal health in our community.

I am a Puerto Rican doula, and I am proud to be a part of this transformative movement towards accessible, culturally sensitive, and holistic maternal care.
