About the Provider

I'm Ashley, a Afro-Caribbean mother to a 13 year old boy. A certified full spectrum doula trained with Ancient Song Doula Services. Throughout my career, I have had the honor of supporting 15 families during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, helping them navigate the beautiful journey of bringing new life into the world.

My passion for supporting families during this transformative time began when I experienced the birth of my own child. I realized the profound impact a skilled and compassionate doula can have on ones birthing experience. Although I wasn't able to have one myself, I was able to teach myself and those supporting me the role of a doula during birth, which allowed me to achieve all of my birth goals.

Through this passion, I have dedicated myself to supporting families through this journey in a way that is personalized, empowering, and non-judgmental. I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment that allows parents to make informed decisions and feel supported throughout the process.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based research and tailored to the individual needs of each family. I provide emotional, physical and informational support, as well as advocacy guidance, to encourage a positive and fulfilling birth and postpartum experience. I am committed to continuing education and professional development to ensure that I am providing the most up-to-date and effective care possible. Whether you're planning a home birth, hospital birth, or a birth center delivery, I am here to support you every step of the way. I look forward to the opportunity to help you achieve your ideal birth experience.
