What an honor to celebrate 20 years of the Long Island Doula Association! 💜
I’m so proud to serve on the LIDA Council and to be surrounded by such an inspiring sisterhood of doulas who truly embody care, compassion, and community.

We celebrated our incredible founders who paved the way for generations of doulas — and thanks to this event, we’ll continue their legacy by offering low-cost and free doula support to birthing people in need across Long Island.

A lot of parents wonder how big a freezer stash “should” be. The truth is—you don’t need a giant stockpile of milk in most cases. As a certified lactation counselor, I always try to encourage my families to use the following rules when creating a molk stash and maintaining their milk supply when they are pumping.

A three day supply is just enough to have in your freezer at all times.

Why don’t you need a huge stash you ask?

Milk is best when it’s fresh. Nutrients and immune factors are most potent when milk is used soon after pumping.

Oversupply can be stressful. It’s a double edged sword. Yes it’s great to have lots of milk BUT pumping too much can lead to engorgement, clogged ducts, or mastitis.

Freezer space is limited—and milk does expire (usually 6 months in a deep freezer).

Always reach out to a lactation professional if you have questions or are worried about your supply.

After a long induction, sweet baby Ali was welcomed into this world. His brave mom and supportive dad were so overjoyed with his birth. They planned for a VBAC but those plans were changed, unfortunately.

As a doula, I know how much heart and hope families pour into planning for a VBAC. Inductions can be tricky, and sometimes the journey takes an unexpected turn toward a repeat cesarean. Even when things don’t go as planned, what shines through is the incredible strength of the birthing person and the love surrounding them. At the end of the day, a safe arrival and a healthy mom and baby are what matter most—and that is always a beautiful birth story. 💙

For those considering a VBAC in the future, know this: every birth is unique, and with the right support, you can walk into your experience feeling informed, cared for, and empowered—no matter how your story unfolds.

I recently received such a kind review from a family I had the joy of supporting thanks to and my heart is still so full. 💛 This client was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish—open, kind, and truly trusting in the process.

Being invited into such an intimate and transformative chapter of someone’s life is an honor I never take lightly. I love being both a birth and postpartum doula—it’s not just my job, it’s my passion.

Every family, every story, every birth reminds me why I do this work. And kind words like these? They’re the icing on the cake. 🍼💫

🎉 It’s official — I’m now a Certified Birth Doula! 💫

I’ve been supporting families as a trained birth doula for some time now, but the paperwork part? Let’s just say… not my strong suit 😅

After lots of beautiful births and a little procrastination, I finally got it all submitted — and I’m proud to say it’s DONE. Certified and ready to keep showing up for birthing people with my heart, hands, and now… my certificate too! 💪✨
