About me

I am a compassionate and dedicated full-spectrum Doula, with a specialized focus on postpartum care, now residing in New Jersey after relocating from the bustling streets of New York City. My journey into the world of birth work began several years ago, driven by a deep-seated passion for supporting families during one of the most transformative periods of their lives. My certification as a full-spectrum Doula has enabled me to accompany and assist families through all stages of the birthing process, offering emotional, physical, and informational support tailored to their unique needs and preferences. My specialty lies in postpartum Doula care, where I have obtained additional certification to better serve families during the critical weeks and months following childbirth. In this role, I focus on nurturing the new mother, facilitating bonding between the newborn and family members, and providing evidence-based guidance on everything from feeding and sleeping patterns to postnatal recovery. My approach is holistic, recognizing the immense physical and emotional transitions that occur postpartum and offering a supportive, non-judgmental presence to ease this period of adjustment. Further enriching my skillset, I am certified in Pediatric CPR, AED, and First Aid, ensuring the utmost safety and preparedness in all situations. This certification underscores my commitment to the well-being of infants and children, providing parents and caregivers with peace of mind knowing that their loved ones are in capable hands. In addition to my Doula certifications, I am also a trained prenatal community healthcare worker. This role has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of the healthcare system and the specific challenges faced by pregnant individuals, enabling me to advocate effectively for my clients' health and well-being. My work in this area has been deeply influenced by my time in New York City, where I gained invaluable experience navigating diverse communities and addressing a wide range of healthcare needs. Now based in New Jersey, I am excited to bring my wealth of experience and passion for birth work to serve the families in my new community. My move has been motivated by a desire to expand my reach and continue making a positive impact on the lives of parents and their newborns. Whether through birth support, postpartum care, or health advocacy, my goal remains unwavering: to empower families with knowledge, support, and compassion every step of the way.

Our Remarkable Doula Ms. Riley 😊 My wife and I had been trying to conceive for three years, and our journey was marked by numerous challenges. When we decided to embark on a four-month In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) process, we recognized the need for exceptional support. Ms. Riley, our extraordinary doula. We met Ms. Riley at a fertility center, where she introduced herself with such warmth: “Hi, I’m Riley, and I’m a full-spectrum doula. It’s not easy, and I want you to know I’m here to help. What can I do to help you?” From that moment, we knew we were in the right hands. Her genuine care and reassuring presence were evident from the start. Ms. Riley brought a wealth of experience and knowledge to our IVF journey, guiding us through each step with unwavering support and compassion. Her ability to create a nurturing and positive environment is truly remarkable. She was always available to listen, answer our questions, and provide the reassurance we needed during the most stressful moments. Her calming demeanor and empathetic nature made a significant difference in our experience. We are profoundly grateful for Ms. Riley’s dedication and the exceptional care she provided us throughout this process. She has become an invaluable part of our journey, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a compassionate and experienced doula. Thank you, Ms. Riley, for your unwavering support and for helping make our dream come true.
