We are a collective of birth doulas, practicing in Massachusetts, with a combined 35 years of experience and about a thousand births attended. More than that, we’re continually excited to support new and growing families while holding one another in a long-term sustainable shared practice. Reach out to us at RiseReproductive@gmail.com to see if we’re a good fit to support your pregnancy, birth or postpartum. While we build up this website, our individual solo-doula practices can be seen here:
About Daniella
A mother of four with wildly different birth experiences under her belt, Daniella felt called to doula work so she could focus on the amazing people who go through childbirth. An engaging and experienced birth educator, Daniella loves to walk her clients through pregnancy thinking about physiology, creative movement, mind-body connection, and working through every step of the process with love. Also a long-time Accompany doula, Daniella is approved to take MassHealth insurance and has been passionate about working with low-income families her entire career. Daniella also teaches about newborn care, offers birth photography and occasional postpartum overnight support.
About Emma
Emma has been attending births since 2010. The roots of her birth work practice sprouted while volunteering as a hospital advocate for a domestic violence / sexual assault support nonprofit. Since the beginning, she’s been providing full-spectrum pregnancy support, inclusive of abortion, miscarriage, infertility, birth, postpartum and beyond. Having spent the 2010’s collectively organizing and building the Boston Abortion Support Collective, Emma’s thrilled to create a more mutually-supportive birth work practice for the long term. With personal and family history in chronic, autoimmune and inflammatory illness, she pulls from her clinical herbalism background in the ways she works with pregnant and postpartum clients.
About Jessie
Born and raised in Cambridge, Jessie has been working with families as a birth and postpartum doula since 2016. With a background in mental health and prenatal yoga, the support Jessie provides always has her clients’ best experience at the center. She loves supporting birthing parents in their later 30s and 40s, queer and trans families, and she provides local overnight support shifts for postpartum parents in need of some more support with sleep. With a compassionate, trauma-informed approach, Jessie advocates for families in deeply nurturing ways.
