Hello! I’m Siriena, and I’m honored to be your doula. With over 18 years of experience in birth work and the unique perspective of being a mother to six wonderful children, I bring deep knowledge and understanding to support you on your journey into parenthood. As a certified full-spectrum doula, specializing in birth, postpartum, and bereavement support, I’ve had the privilege of assisting in over 150 births as a birth doula and also serving as a trusted midwife assistant. My expertise extends beyond emotional and physical support- I’m well-versed in the nuances of labor and delivery, ensuring you feel informed and empowered every step of the way.

One of my proudest achievements has been my over 3 years of employment as a postpartum doula with Healthy Start. During this time, I’ve had the privilege of assisting new moms both in-person and virtually, providing invaluable guidance and support during the crucial postpartum period. This year, I was honored to be promoted to Doula Program Manager, where I now lead a dedicated team of doulas. In this role, I focus on team and staff engagement, ensuring that every member of our team feels supported and empowered to provide the highest quality care to our clients. Quality assurance is also a top priority for me- I’m committed to maintaining the highest standards of care and ensuring that every family we serve receives the support and guidance they need to thrive.

In addition to my work as a doula, I’m also an instructor of Red Cross first aid and CPR, furthering my commitment to the safety and well-being of families beyond childbirth. Certified as a Nursing Assistant and serving as a Connect One Community Doula Facilitator, I’m dedicated to fostering healthy pregnancies and positive birthing experiences for all mothers. I’m also proficient in delivering the Healthy Baby Curriculum and am committed to advancing the Black Women’s Policy Agenda through my participation in their Boot Camp.

Outside of my doula work, I love to travel to the beach, cook for my family, and indulge in making natural skincare products.
