Welcome to Pura Vida Eastern Wellness Current Acupuncture Student at the Eastern School of Acupuncture and Traditional Medicine, well versed in treating fertility issues, pregnancy and postpartum recovery through the use of acupressure, prenatal and pediatric massage and herbal nutrition. Helping Arizona birthing families have physically empowering pregnancies, childbirth and postpartum recovery since 2019.

The name of Pura Vida", signifies a relaxed attitude towards life, including its ups and downs, and an easy-going nature. With the help of a doula, this is the type of approach we would like all mums to have during the pregnancy and birthing process, as well as during parenthood. One of the foundations of Pura Vida is following the mindfulness values provided by Midwife, Nancy Bardacke, who wrote "Mindful Birthing". Your doula will provide training and practice in the use of mindfulness not only during pregnancy and labor/delivery, but also in your transition to parenthood. Both mums and dads can benefit from mindfulness, and there is also research showing that mindfulness can maintain a healthy relationship for parents as well.

Hello everyone! My name is Soleil Townes, I am the owner of Evangeline Birthing Services, which provides full-spectrum doula services to those in select counties in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I have a passion for helping queer families of color have beautiful birth experiences and receive the support they need whether that is grief support or adoption support. I fell in love with birth work during my years at Montclair State University where I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Family Sciences and Human Development. While there, I took a class called “Medical Humanities” where I learned the different health disparities different ethnicities have faced in our health care system. What stood out to me was how Black birthing persons have such high birthing mortality rates. And upon further research, I stumbled upon the beauty and importance of birth work. I have always had a passion for helping queer families of color, and this shines through my work. I have over 5 years of childcare experience before becoming a doula. When I'm not working, I spend my free time expanding my hobbies: video games, reading, attending comic and anime conventions, community service, watching cartoons, and creating handmade jewelry.

I am a doula, childbirth educator and breastfeeding counselor with 20+ years experience working with childbearing families. I serve northeast and central Pennsylvania. I also do limited traveling doula support.

I believe that all parents deserve to feel encouraged, respected, and empowered to make the best choices for their families.

My role as a birth supporter is to ask, "what do you need right now?" to ensure that your needs are met while laboring. We do an in depth pre-consultation so I am aware of your prior experience (positive, negative, and neutral) with pregnancy, birth, the medical system, anxiety, relaxation, and anyone else who will be there with you, so I have a full picture of how to support you. I love that I have the opportunity to give support to someone who is about to spend years supporting this new human life, and that my presence can help kickstart that from a place of positive empowerment in choice. I feel I work best in a hospital setting, where consistent staff support may not always be possible, so that I can be that consistency and the one who is always about the person who is laboring.
