About me

Hello! My name is Melissa Guerra, and I am a birth and postpartum doula, a certified lactation specialist, a yoga teacher, and a mother to 5 amazing humans. I center my practice around trusting our bodies and using my knowledge of physiological birth, to make labor as smooth as possible. I also view birth as one of the most sacred moments we can experience, and want to make sure each parent experiences that as well. I am passionate about postpartum care as well, and love coming along side families during the transition. I bring my knowledge, experience and caring with me to every postpartum visit. I truly love what I get to do, and consider it nothing less than an honor to share these moments with families.
