let’s get started
Interested in learning how I can help you in your birth and/or postpartum journey?
It’s best to start with a phone consultation. Phone consultations are always free and confidential. I can answer questions about services, availability, and we can talk about your individual needs. Usually this is done a few months before birth, however if your baby has already arrived that’s okay too!
Next, we set up an in person meeting. Preferably this is done at your home so I can get a better sense of your space. We spend time getting in depth with your story, concerns, and excitements. We can start making a plan of action.
As your doula I can provide birth, daytime, and/or overnight services for any number of weeks. Every family needs different kinds of support. We discuss what fits best for you. Whatever the time frame, my goal is to leave you in a position of confidence and health!
postpartum Doula Services
OVernight
Overnight work means that I spend 8+ night hours caring for your baby and you. Typically 10pm-6am, however this is flexible. This service is great for solo parents, working parents, parents in early recovery from birth, and those whose bodies need the extra sleep. I can bring your newborn to you to feed and then let you sleep while I burp, change, and care for them. Alternatively, I can bottle feed and let you sleep the whole night through!
daytime
Daytime doula work is about active caring and counseling. In the early postpartum days we focus on your recovery from birth, by nourishing your body, bonding with baby, and creating a peaceful home environment. I’ll do light cleaning, cooking, and laundry, help advise on using sitz baths, peri bottles, setting up breast pumps, feeding stations. I am a Certified Lactation Specialist and can help guide you through all things lactation and feeding. I can help plan and put into practice a manageable flow to your day surrounding you and your baby’s care.

My Birth Doula Package is designed to walk alongside you from pregnancy through early postpartum. We begin with three prenatal visits, so we have plenty of time get to know each other, and build trust. During these meeting I can help prepare you both practically and emotionally for birth. We review childbirth education — including the stages of labor and what to expect — so you feel oriented and grounded. We discuss how to make informed decisions in the hospital, including understanding the risks/benefits of common interventions and augmentations. We practice hands-on comfort measures, explore supportive movement and positioning, and prepare your partner or support person to feel confident and actively involved.
When labor begins, I’ll. be a part of your birth team at home and in hospital. I offer hands-on comfort techniques such as counterpressure, massage, breath guidance, and grounding touch, along with supportive movement and position changes to help labor progress and promote comfort. I facilitate clear, respectful communication with your care team so you and your partner can focus more fully on the intensity and intimacy of the moment — rather than the external noise — and feel centered, connected, and supported throughout your birth experience.
After your baby arrives, I return to your home for two postpartum follow-up visits to help you process your birth experience and ease your transition into life with your newborn. As a certified lactation consultant, this can include lactation education and practical feeding support tailored to your goals. Drawing on my many years of experience as a postpartum doula, I also help you navigate common postpartum challenges — from recovery and newborn rhythms to emotional adjustment — so you feel cared for, informed, and not alone in the early weeks.
Birth Doula Support packages can be bundled with ongoing postpartum support, so we can keep working together in your postpartum weeks!
“We loved working with Zora! By the end of our time together, at our last postpartum visit, she felt more like a close friend or family member. Zora is extremely knowledgeable, empathetic, and collaborative. I really can’t imagine having gone through birth without her. Before and during labor, she presented a very comprehensive set of ideas. And she was essential to us determining what we ultimately decided we wanted. She was also super responsive to any questions we had before and after the delivery. We would highly recommend her to anyone.” -Nick
“I cannot emphasize enough how instrumental Zora was to my birth experience. After having Zora as my doula, I whole heartedly believe every pregnant person should have a doula like her by their side during childbirth. My labor went nothing like how I imagined or planned, but with Zora’s support I felt like I was able to pivot and make the most out of my experience. Zora’s support also really helped my partner, who I think would’ve been otherwise overwhelmed by the birthing experience and unsure of how to support me. Together, Zora and my partner were the best duo I could’ve asked for. She truly helped him help me throughout the process. I am eternally grateful to her!” -Shelby
