I'm Ashley, a Afro-Caribbean mother to a 13 year old boy, raised in Washington Heights but currently living in Harlem, NYC. A Certified Full Spectrum Birth & Postpartum Doula, trained with Ancient Song Doula Services. 

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 one's birthing experience. Although I wasn't able to have a doula at the time, I was able to use the knowledge gained about doulas and their work to achieve my own birth goals, which grew my interest and passion to become one years later. 

As a doula, I believe in creating a safe and nurturing space that allows parents to feel supported and make informed decisions during their pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. I provide physical, emotional and informational support and specialize in evidence based education, lactation, advocacy guidance, holistic healing care, and creating individualized data-driven plans to support families with a safe and positive birthing experience. Ultimately, my goal is to ensure parents feel empowered and confident while creating the vision they desire for parenthood.

​

My work aims to uplift ancestral birth and postpartum traditions, reproductive justice, racial equity + community healing and education. I am forever committed to continuing education and professional development to ensure I am providing families with the most up-to-date and effective care possible.

I look forward to the opportunity to help you achieve your birth and/or postpartum goals
