Paige Ann
My path to birthwork began while living in Brooklyn, NY. Although not yet a mother myself, my fascination with birthwork sprang from a commitment to holistic well-being and a deep interest in women's advocacy work. Finding birthwork felt like a natural fit. I dove deep into birthwork and in 2017 earned my Birth Doula certification (CD(DONA)) through Dona International. I began my practice shortly thereafter and fell more in love with the birthwork community that quietly helped to nourish the women in my community.
Supported by my partner and an incredible doula, I welcomed my first daughter in 2018 via unplanned cesarean. When later I became pregnant with my second, the determination for a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) fueled my journey. Successfully achieving a VBAC and welcoming my second daughter became a powerful lesson in trusting my body. Personally navigating two distinctly different births only strengthened my desire to continue to learn and grow as a doula.
Now based in Central Jersey, I extend my support to women as far as NYC and Philadelphia. Recognizing the uniqueness of each client's journey, I strive to provide tailored support to each birthing person throughout the path to motherhood and into the fourth trimester.
The birth of a baby is not the culmination but rather the commencement of the journey.
Kind Words
“I feel very lucky to have come across Paige when searching for a doula for my second pregnancy. I could not have asked for a better support person throughout my pregnancy and birth. From our first phone conversation, I knew she would be the right fit. She was so easy to talk to and immediately made me feel comfortable, understood and cared for. I had a handful of challenges towards the end of my pregnancy and her support in navigating through these to make the best decision for me and my baby was invaluable. She is all that I could have hoped to find in a doula - sweet, caring, compassionate, supportive and knowledgeable. It is clear she is passionate about her role and I could not recommend her enough!” Jasmine O.
