I’m Chaya — a DMV native, proud mama of three, and someone who truly believes birth and postpartum deserve to be supported, protected, and celebrated.

My path into birth work began in 2019 when I became a CNA, NRP/CPR certified, and a full-spectrum doula. What started as a goal to become a labor & delivery nurse quickly grew into something much bigger. Since then, I’ve worked alongside midwives, apprenticed as a student birth assistant for a home birth practice, and spent years working as a clinical tech in a hospital labor & delivery unit.

Through those experiences, I’ve had the honor of supporting more than 200 births as a doula, student midwife, and L&D tech. Each family, each birth, and each postpartum season has deepened my understanding of how important it is for parents to feel informed, supported, and truly cared for.

Today, I provide full-spectrum perinatal support, walking with families from pregnancy through birth and into the early days of postpartum. Whether you need hands-on birth support, advocacy during labor, overnight newborn care, or guidance during recovery, my goal is simple: to help you feel confident, supported, and never alone during one of the biggest transitions of your life.

Many of my clients jokingly call me their “birth bestie.” I’m the calm presence in the room, the extra set of hands when things feel overwhelming, and the person making sure your voice is heard. Advocacy is at the heart of everything I do, and I believe every family deserves an informed and autonomous birth experience, no matter what that path looks like.

Alongside birth and postpartum support, I also offer placenta encapsulation and birth or newborn photography, allowing families to receive thoughtful, continuous care throughout their journey.

I’m currently preparing to sit for the NCLEX to become a LPN, and I plan to continue advancing my education with the goal of becoming a Certified Nurse Midwife and opening my own practice one day, creating a space where families can experience safe, empowering care, including the option of home birth, just as I did with my own children.

The relationships I build with my clients often turn into lasting friendships. I prioritize trust, safety, and genuine connection so you always feel comfortable leaning on me during some of the most sacred moments of your life.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.
That’s what support, and a good birth bestie, is for.
