I work with people before and/or after birth providing informational, emotional and physical support, companionship, nurturing care and listening ear.
Alla made THE DIFFERENCE in my labor with my first-born. She got to know me and my goals beforehand. I wanted help with a natural birth, and her presence and suggestions were what got me through the intense experience of labor. She provided the grounding, wisdom, and accountability I needed. I feel very happy and grateful for my birth experience and would definitely recommend Alla.

Alla has been a great help as our postpartum doula. Her calm presence really made a difference, and she has a lot of knowledge. She’s super sweet and supportive, always willing to lend a hand. She didn’t just help with our newborn; she also helped with our toddler and even our cat. Plus, her cooking is amazing—she even brought ingredients for us. We’re really grateful for her support during this time.

Alla was so much help for us to navigate the birth of our first born and was caring to the little one in the weeks after the birth. She provided us with a lot of information, answered all of our questions, and could help take care of all of us. Alla was very flexible and reliable - she was always available when we needed help. We had a very positive experience working with Alla!

I highly recommend Alla as a doula. Alla was our birth doula for the birth of our first baby. As first time going through pregnancy and labor, Alla was key in helping us prepare for and deliver our baby at the hospital. Alla was with us during the labor process and supported me in doing different birthing positions, staying hydrated and advocating my birth plan preferences.
