As May comes to a close, I’m so grateful to take a moment to introduce myself here — I’m Alayah, a certified postpartum doula through DONA International, and a devoted nurterer of parents and caregivers in their most sacred season.
My journey into this work began two years ago following the birth of my godson. In learning how to take care of him, I learned how important it is to take care of his caretakers as well. I believe I have been called to take care primary caretakers — to hold space, offer rest, and support the healing that unfolds after birth. With experience in newborn care, feeding support, and traditional healing, I walk beside parents in their most tender days.
To my fellow doulas: thank you for the heart you pour into this work. And to every other parent I’ve had the honor of supporting — thank you for letting me witness your strength, softness, and transformation.
Here’s to holding space for the village — one family at a time. 💛
