Bio
Dallyda Tatchi-Banda believes in the power of unity and togetherness when it comes to providing doula support. Her journey in supporting families is fueled by a deep passion for being present during one of life's most transformative moments. Dallyda is dedicated to fostering a sense of unity and partnership, both with your partner and as your doula.
As a full-spectrum doula, Dallyda has provided care to birthing persons and their partners throughout pregnancy and childbirth. Her work extensively focuses on the prenatal period and education, believing that preparation in both body and mind is essential for achieving the goals set by birthing persons. The prenatal period is a special and important time to understand how the body works and explore techniques to assist in having the best birthing experience. Dallyda’s role is to help birthing persons and their partners prepare by understanding their goals and fears regarding childbirth while teaching important strategies to prepare mentally, physically, and spiritually.
In postpartum care, Dallyda’s primary goal is to understand the challenges new parents may face with their young ones and develop helpful techniques to make the transition into parenthood smoother, providing necessary resources.
Dallyda is warm, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. She is available and flexible, ensuring clients feel supported and heard. Dallyda works extensively with a birthing person’s partner and other family members, educating them on the stages of labor, doula roles and responsibilities, and the labor/birth and postpartum periods. This approach fosters togetherness and teamwork for the birthing person. When she is not on call or attending a birth, Dallyda loves to read, travel, explore new restaurants, and work out.

Client testimonials
"Dallyda was amazing! She was so helpful in so many ways. Dallyda was our doula 2-3 times a week, mostly overnight, with some evening shifts, for two months.
We were expecting our baby in mid-March, but due to health reasons, I ended up delivering three weeks early. Dallyda accommodated our new start date, which was invaluable. As new parents, my husband and I felt like we had so much to learn, especially as we were thrown into parenthood a few weeks earlier than we had prepared for, with a rather small and delicate baby. Not only did Dallyda help us navigate this new chapter in our lives, but she did so with patience, understanding, and care.
Dallyda is a gifted doula who knows babies; she has a magic touch that always soothes our baby girl, whether it's gas or overtiredness. She is always upbeat, yet calming and gentle. In fact, as our baby got older, Dallyda managed to get her smiling and laughing in no time! The best part is that Dallyda always made sure we had the right tools and knowledge to succeed between her visits, and beyond.
We are extremely happy with Dallyda and highly recommend her!" - Partum Health client, April 2026
