Empower Your Birth
Your Journey with Valentina as your Birth Doula
As a holistic birth doula, I am dedicated to supporting you through every step of your journey into parenthood. My approach is both science-based and deeply personal, understanding not just the physiological aspects of birth, but also the emotional and mental transitions that come with becoming parents. Here’s a closer look at the packages I offer and what you can expect from our time together.


My aim is to unite the physiological and emotional aspects of childbirth, providing you with a well-rounded, supportive experience. By combining science-based practices with a natural approach, I strive to ensure that you feel empowered, informed, and supported every step of the way.
I am here to help you navigate the incredible journey of becoming parents, offering continuous support, education, and care. Together, we can create a birthing experience that is as positive and empowering as possible. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about my services, please feel free to reach out.
I look forward to being part of your journey into parenthood!
Prenatal Appointments: What to Expect
During our prenatal appointments, we will:
Discuss Your Birth Preferences: We’ll explore your vision for your birth experience and create a birth plan that reflects your wishes.
Prepare for Labor and Delivery: I’ll provide information on what to expect, pain management techniques, and how to create a supportive birthing environment.
Address Emotional Well-being: We’ll discuss any fears or anxieties you may have and explore strategies to maintain a positive mindset.
Nutrition and Exercise: Guidance on maintaining a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy to support your body and your baby.
The Importance of Postnatal Debrief
After your baby is born, a postnatal debrief is an essential part of the recovery process. During our postnatal debrief sessions, we will:
Reflect on Your Birth Experience: Discuss what went well, any unexpected challenges, and how you felt throughout the process.
Provide Emotional Support: We'll dddress any emotional responses you’re experiencing, from joy to postpartum blues.
Help you with Infant Care: Provide support with breastfeeding, baby soothing techniques, and establishing routines.
Share Self-care Tips: Help you find ways to care for yourself as you adjust to your new role.
Listening to your Story: Listening to birth stories without judgment or interruption is one of the most powerful ways to support someone after they’ve given birth.
Birth is a deeply personal and transformative experience, and sharing the story helps us process emotions, find meaning, and heal. When we listen with an open heart and without jumping in with advice or opinions, we create a safe space where the storyteller feels seen and heard. This allows them to fully explore their experience, making sense of what happened in their own time and their own way. It’s about holding space, not fixing or analyzing—just being present.
