About Me
Hi, I’m Silvia! I believe in a simple but powerful truth: every birthing person deserves a doula — no matter their circumstances, background, or birth plan. Birth is a universal human experience, and everyone is worthy of compassionate, informed, and personalized support throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum.
I completed my doula training through DONA International and bring 18 years of experience as a Birth and Postpartum Doula, as well as a Certified Childbirth and Lactation Specialist. I’m passionate about supporting families through prenatal preparation, labor and delivery, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding, and newborn milestones. As a mother of five, and having breastfed my youngest for three years, I combine both lived experience and professional expertise in the care I provide.
My goal is to create a calm, steady, and empowering atmosphere while offering physical, emotional, and informational support. I value positive encouragement, self-advocacy, and meeting each family where they are. I’m here to listen, guide, and help you feel confident and supported as you grow your family.
