About Me

Selena Maldonado

Hey! Iā€™m Selena!
I am a birth, postpartum, and abortion doula that focuses on education, nourishment and the empowerment of advocacy. I believe every person deserves to have autonomy over their own birthing experience, this includes their birth team. My goal is for my clients to feel seen, heard, and empowered, so they can have a dignified birth.
I use a mixture of evidence based, and holistic care in my practice to help parents transition from pregnancy to postpartum.
For the future, I hope to be the sister/ friend/ support person you can lean on during your transition into parenthood. Visit @selenathedoula on Instagram to learn more!

Making Your Birth Unique

Nourishing

I believe a parent can be the best version of themselves when they are well nourished. I incorporate meal prepping and pantry stocking as part of my postpartum care.

Empowering

A mother deserves some mothering of her own. With me by your side, you will not only feel well informed but also encouraged through any decision you may make during your pregnancy or postpartum experience.

Educational

A confident birthing person is one who is well educated. During our prenatals we will review the information provided from your childbirth education class, as well as go over any tests / procedures you may have done in order to ensure that you are able to give an informed consent.
