"Helping and serving people are my love languages – it is part of who I am."
"One day, someone said to me that we are portals during childbirth, that changed my life. I connected deeply with this truth; being a doula started to make sense. That’s when Your Maternity Journey was born and I found my purpose in life: Help birthing a new generation, with love and respect."
MEET OUR TEAM
Alini
Labor & Postpartum doula. CPR certified. Early Childhood Teacher, Specialist in Nurturing and Supporting New Parents.
"Hi, I’m Alini, a birth and postpartum doula. For years, I've dedicated myself to understanding infant and toddler development, crafting strategies and action plans to create nurturing and supportive environments. It's been a privilege to support so many families along the way. As a birth doula, I feel honored to participate in these special moments and provide the care, love, guidance, and encouragement that new mothers need, each birth is unique."
Angela
Labor and Postpartum Doula, Infant Care Specialist. CPR Certified.
"Newborns are so precious and helpless, and often receive the best care we can give them. Birthing mothers on the other hand, don’t always get the same necessary care. When I had my first baby, long ago, I realized how crucial it is to care for mamas after the birth of their babies. From there on, I decided to advocate for mamas on their postpartum. First with family and friends, until I realized that I am and have been a postpartum doula this entire time."
Carol
Labor & Postpartum Doula, CPR certified, Massage Therapist, Tapping Specialist and Holistic Healing Therapist.
"After my experience as a pregnant woman during the pandemic, where the presence of a doula during pregnancy and natural childbirth made all the difference in my journey, I decided to become a doula so that more women can be empowered and supported in this unique moment. It’s important to remind other women that our body knows how to give birth and that we have more power and strength than we imagine! Healing the body during postpartum takes time, and an extra load of love and care. I’m glad to be support for all postpartum moms on their journey to reconnect with themselves."
Clara
Birth and Postpartum Doula, Lactation Consultant, Family Constellation Therapist focused on Infertility and Birth Trauma, CPR certified.
"I’m Clara Freitas Metta, mother, wife, Brazilian, doula, lactation consultant, and family constellation therapist. As a doula and lactation consultant, I’m always grateful to have been given space to support a family into improving their bond and making the transition into a bigger family smooth and seamless. As a family constellation therapist I can support people while healing from trauma, physical and/or emotional, and overcome challenges that are deeper than what it is on the surface. Having different tools to support families has been a great opportunity for me to serve and be supportive to others."
Flavia
Psychologist, Labor & Postpartum Doula, Infant Care Specialist. CPR Certified.
"After my experience as a pregnant woman during the pandemic, where the presence of a doula during pregnancy and natural childbirth made all the difference in my journey, I decided to become a doula so that more women can be empowered and supported in this unique moment.

Thais
Nurse with a postgraduate degree in occupational nursing and emergency care, Labor and Postpartum Doula, Lactant Consultant, Laser and Tapping Specialist and CPR certified.
"My experience with breastfeeding was challenging during my first pregnancy, and I discontinued breastfeeding after just four months. I realized how crucial proper guidance, without exaggeration, and a strong support network are for successful breastfeeding. After four pregnancies, I understand the immense importance of having accurate breastfeeding information. My desire to help other mothers has been present long before I became a mother myself. Motherhood confirmed that I am on the right path and that, through my love and knowledge of the maternal and infant world and breastfeeding, I can support and assist many mothers in navigating this phase with ease and confidence."
Katia
Labor & Postpartum Doula, Lactant Consultant, Laser Specialist and CPR certified.
"I chose to become a doula because I deeply believe in the transformative power of a respectful birth and the importance of providing physical, emotional, and informational support to women during such a unique and sacred moment. Being a doula is more than just a profession; it is a calling to stand beside women, helping them feel safe, empowered, and connected to their choices and the birth of their babies. My goal is to create an environment of trust, care, and empowerment, ensuring that every woman feels heard and respected throughout this special journey."
Iara
Postpartum Doula, Newborn Care Specialist and CPR certified.
"After my own postpartum journey, I realized how little support I had and knew I wanted to change that. Newborns deserve a calm, loving presence, and so do their parents. Birth doesn't end with delivery; it continues in the quiet moments, the healing, and the learning. I became a postpartum doula to be the support I once needed to listen, help with the little things, and remind new parents they’re not alone and they’re doing an amazing job."
Mariana
Massage Therapist
"I came to the U.S. as an au pair and worked as a nanny for 6 years, always dedicated to caring for families with love and attention. I’m currently studying to become a physical therapist, and to complement my education, I completed massage therapy training. Soon, I’ll also be offering services as a physical therapist, combining technical knowledge with a warm, supportive approach."
Mony
Postpartum Doula & CPR certified.
"Through my work in women’s care projects, I found my purpose: to support women during the delicate and transformative postpartum period. Being a doula is a mission of love—to offer presence, support, and care for the mother, baby, and family. I believe this moment deserves warmth, safety, and deep listening."
Anna
Postpartum Doula & CPR certified.
"As a doula, my purpose is to provide unwavering support to women and their families during this deeply emotional and transformative journey. It is truly an honor to be part of such a special moment, guiding and assisting mothers and fathers as they welcome their newborn into the world and bring them home with confidence and love."
Julia

"A place where you feel safe and at ease is one where someone is ready to support you with all your needs—especially in caring for your baby, but also in ensuring that you feel primarily and truly cared for as well. An extra hand and love can make all the difference for mamas during this delicate time. While new beginnings may be challenging, they can also be filled with joy. I am here to provide the care and support you eserve, helping you feel seen, valued, and comforted. It would be a pleasure to be part of your journey!"

"I have been working with children and parents for more than 10 years, and in addition I am the mother of 2 girls. This made me know and have several experiences in the world of babies and parents, especially giving the necessary support for beginners. I have already taken care of several newborn babies and with them, the mothers, who live this journey intensely. My job is to ensure that this beautiful phase is recorded with a lot of love and security!"
Janaina
Labor & Postpartum Doula, Lactant Consultant and CPR certified
"Pregnancy is a time of many new things and care is necessary with the arrival of the baby. The first moment is one of much learning and demands care. My main focus is to provide support to women in the postpartum period and also to be able to help with the first care for the newborn. A hand of love is always welcome in this moment of joy, delicacy and new beginnings, and it will be a pleasure to be part of all this."

"As someone who’s always been passionate about providing care and emotional support to others and also amazed about women's strength, especially when it comes to birthing, becoming a doula seemed very natural. Supporting parents on this beautiful and special journey of bringing a new life into the world brings me much joy, fulfillment, and certainty that I’m doing something meaningful."
Thayene
Psychologist, Postpartum Doula, CPR and First Aid Certified.
"Being pregnant with my first baby during Covid in another country made surge on me the necessity of having some extra help. In the most challenging chapter of a woman life a good support is a necessity. Being a psychologist back in Brazil made me realize I could be making a difference in women’s life during this challenging period so I started my journey as a doula. Helping little angels to come to this world in the most joyful way and help the mommy’s to learn how to deal with their new phase with the tranquility of knowing they have someone to count on is what makes my own journey unique and special."
