Born and raised in a tight-knit community, I've always had a natural inclination towards helping others. However, it was the birth of my first child that sparked my newfound calling. My own childbirth experience, marked by both challenges and triumphs, ignited a profound desire to assist other women through this transformative period of their lives. My name is Effy, and my journey as a doula is marked by my commitment to inclusivity and cultural sensitivity. I recognize the unique needs and perspectives of each family I work with, ensuring a tailored and supportive experience for all. My bilingual abilities enable me to bridge language barriers, making my services accessible to a diverse clientele. My dedication and innate ability to connect with expectant mothers quickly set me apart in the field. I approach each birth with unwavering compassion, providing emotional support, physical comfort, and evidence-based information to empower women in making informed choices.

My services include prenatal appointments, 24/7 text chat support, unlimited labor assistance, and a postpartum appointment to check in on your progress. Additionally, I provide essential support for breastfeeding parents.
Effy is an incredible colleague who is always warm, caring, and open-minded. She listens to concerns and is always ready to help out. Her understanding of how birth impacts cultural biases is so important, and being able to speak with her in Spanish is a big plus. Effy is an amazing mother, doula, and friend, and working with her is a joy because she’s always got a huge smile on her face. She’s super knowledgeable and easy to talk to, making her a fantastic part of our community. Her passion for helping others is truly admirable, and she has been an amazing contribution to the birth worker community. Any client who hires her will receive exceptional service.

Effy assisted with the birth of my daughter. She was thoughtful, patient, and hard working. Having a doula at our birth was one of the best decisions we could have made.
