Doula
As a doula I provide mental, emotional, spiritual support and assistance through childbirth including prenatal and/or postpartum. While I provide services for everyone, I prioritize and center Queer and Trans People of Color, People of Color in general and low income folxs. My services include providing resources for natural alternatives, community support/services catered to your specific needs and background and sliding scale pricing based on your income. There will be a free consultation where we discuss who we are, your needs, wants and what this can be moving forward.
I am trained in a decolonial approach via Ancient Song Doula Services which highlights implicit bias against folxs marginalized identities*, crediting People of Color Indigenous Communities specifically Black folxs in the American context, the systems in which we navigate/operate and providing resources for folxs to receive the care they want and deserve in their reproductive journey.
While I focus on childbirth care, I provide resources including doula providers that assist with abortion, reproductive and grief care upon request.
Sliding scale, service exchange and bartering options available (will be explored through consultation if request/necessity)
*Marginalized Identities refers to People of Color, LGBTQIA+, all Womxn, trans/non-binary Men, People along/beyond the Trans and/or non-binary spectrum, etc.
*marginalized in our maltreatment through a white supremacist/capitalist system but not in who we are as people
