Bio

Hi! My name is Samaria, and I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula with over 3 years of hands-on experience supporting infants and families. I’m also a new mom, which has deepened my understanding of infant care, routines, and the emotional needs of both babies and parents.

In addition to my doula work, I work with Pre-K students and am currently in college pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Education. My education and experience allow me to support children in a way that’s developmentally appropriate, nurturing, and responsive to each child’s individual needs.

My background includes newborn and infant care, bottle feeding, soothing techniques, sleep routines, diapering, and engaging children in age-appropriate developmental play. I’m CPR certified, safety-focused, patient, and dependable, and I take pride in clear communication and consistency with families.

What truly sets me apart is my whole-family approach. I understand how important trust, reliability, and emotional support are — especially in the early years. My goal is to provide calm, loving care while supporting parents in maintaining routines and feeling confident leaving their child in safe, capable hands.

I look forward to connecting with families who value experience, warmth, and thoughtful, intentional care.

Message to new parents

Having nonjudgmental support during birth & postpartum makes a world of a difference. I hope I can be that safe person for you and your family during such a beautiful time.
