Hello, I am Dasha. I am so thrilled about your pregnancy and upcoming birth! These are the most precious moments of your life and I hope you get to enjoy and cherish them! I am a birth and postpartum doula and have experience walking women through difficult pregnancies. My business is called lalanterne.mama. I am a Christian doula, happy to work with families from different cultures and religious backgrounds. In the last 10 years, I was honored to serve many families and attended multiple births while working at a hospital in Seattle, WA. My family and I moved to Boise, ID about two years ago and that is when my journey of a personal doula practice began. Each day, I am grateful to be here and to serve families with my love, passion and knowledge. There is a big WHY behind my doula practice. In my personal journey to motherhood I have encountered many struggles. I was bed ridden for months due to a severe pregnancy sickness called hyperemesis gravidarum. My first delivery was traumatic and the baby ended up weighing 10 pounds! I felt alone and struggling through majority of my early years of motherhood. After a decade of working in healthcare and observing women bring babies into this World, I became a strong advocate against traveling this journey alone. I wish I asked for help. I wish I allowed for someone to come along side of me and help me make informed decisions. I deserved to be loved and surrounded by kindness during those vulnerable moments of my life. A doula - would have made a HUGE difference. Today my personal experience makes me a knowledgeable, compassionate and loving doula. I would be honored to walk your journey with you, because, I believe - you deserve to have the best experience of your life. |
