Sasha
BIRTH & POSTPARTUM DOULA
Hi! I’m Sasha and I’m a certified birth & postpartum doula based in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. I’m also an actor and have a BFA in Drama from NYU Tisch School of the Arts.
I first felt called to be a doula after the birth of my first daughter when a complicated pregnancy and birth was made joyful and empowering by my own incredible birth doula. After the birth of my second daughter, I felt a deep desire to be a permanent part of these sacred birthing spaces, and to share with other birthing people what my doula gave to me. Soon after, I realized how equally critical it is to provide compassionate postpartum support and began my journey as a postpartum doula.
I am steadfast in my belief that all birthing and postpartum people deserve non-judgmental, unwavering support, and treat each unique experience with compassion, respect, and humor (because laughing can help!). I’m here to help you feel confident in making informed decisions, fiercely advocate for you, and bring joy into your birthing and postpartum space.
While most of my free time is spent being mom to two wonderful and energetic young daughters (and one dog!). I also love running, baking, and seeing as much theatre as I can.
I am so grateful to be a part of your journey.
Testimonials
“The birth of our second child was one of the most transformative experiences of our lives, and having Sasha as our doula was a blessing. From the start, her positive energy and calm confidence reassured us. She didn’t just support us—she became an integral part of the journey, and we can’t imagine navigating it without her. She helped make our birth everything we hoped for—and more.”

-Elyse
“I was really scared of birth, so I sought out a doula who would help me feel supported, safe, and maybe even joyful during labor. I never thought I'd say I actually enjoyed giving birth to my daughter, but I really did. Sasha was there the whole time, offering support to both my husband and me, keeping the environment calm and supportive, and communicated beautifully with all the nurses and doctors. I really had an amazing experience, and I will never forget this beautiful process of labor.”
-Larissa
“After having a traumatic labor and delivery experience with my first child, I was really concerned about how difficult my postpartum recovery would be – both physically and emotionally. Sasha was with me throughout my pregnancy as well as into my early postpartum weeks, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt, I would not have made it through without her. Not only is she incredibly kind, empathetic, and supportive, but Sasha also has a way of anticipating your needs that makes you feel so cared for and seen during such a vulnerable time. She was there for me whenever I needed her – without fail and without judgement – and I am so grateful to have had her by my side.”
