Welcome, I’m Nishante!

I am a full-spectrum doula, offering support in reproductive health, birth and labor, and postpartum care in Connecticut and Rhode Island.

I love doula work because I deeply value the one-to-one relationships I build with clients, walking alongside them during one of the most important and transformative experiences of their lives. My passion for supporting, educating, and empowering people giving birth comes from my commitment to addressing the maternal and infant health disparities that disproportionately affect Black women. My goal is to help all birthing people—especially Black women—feel confident, informed, and supported by:

  • Learning to trust their bodies;
  • Learning to trust themselves to make informed decisions and advocate for the birth experience they desire; and
  • Receiving culturally responsive, non-clinical emotional, physical, and informational support before, during, and after birth.

It would be an honor to support you on your birth journey. I work collaboratively with you and your support team to create an experience where you feel confident, informed, and surrounded by care, love, and respect.
