About me

Hi everyone, my name is Claire Estacuy, but I also go by Chachi in my community so please feel free to call me either. I currently live in Pawtucket, RI and serve families from all over RI and many parts of MA. I am a Full Spectrum Doula and a Newborn Care Specialist. I did my training for both professions in 2022 and have been immersed in this rewarding field ever since. I received my B.S. in Health Studies and B.A. in Gender & Women Studies from the University of Rhode Island. As a Spanish speaking Doula, I emphasize my Doula practice to include culturally congruent care while always providing evidence based information to all my clients. I chose to name my business With Love because it is the best way to describe how I show up for my clients and how I believe we all should handle the many whirlwinds that life can often throw at us.

Service introduction

As a birthworker I provide Doula and Newborn Care services to families. As a Doula, I can be of support to families during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period. During visits, I want to be able to answer any questions families may have and allow them to explore options that they may or may not know are available. I understand that we are often rushed in our doctors visits, so I truly want to emphasize my care by taking my time and providing families with evidence based information so they can make informed decisions regarding themselves or their baby(ies). My support can either be educational, physical or emotional. Every family is different and their needs may vary, I am open to learning my clients so I can provide them with support unique to them. As a Newborn Care Specialist, I am able to provide families with suggestions and helpful tips in regards to their newborn. I work according to your pediatricians recommendations to ensure that we are keeping your baby safe and considering their development when creating or adjusting any of parts of their care. Day shifts and overnight shifts look a little different but both entail caring for newborn needs that can either make the nights or days run a bit smoother for families.

By far the best decision I made was working with Claire throughout my pregnancy journey and even post partum. Claire assisted me with all my questions and worries as it was my first child and I couldn’t have been more annoying. She treated me with the most sincere care and patience every time. I got my placenta encapsulated by her which she included with an imprint of my placenta, what a thoughtful keepsake. I’d recommend her a thousand times over she was a pleasure & a comfort to have by my side.

Claire is such a beautiful soul and a nurturing individual. She’s very patient and helpful in providing any and all necessary information. She’s also very supportive both emotionally and physically. I feel so honored to have met her and know her.
