Zoë Berliner (she/her)
I began birth work after ten years of working in childcare. My deep desire to offer unwavering, comprehensive care to children naturally led to an interest in providing the same support to new and growing families. I am a Certified Labor and Postpartum Doula through Birthingway College of Midwifery. As my passion to support postpartum families continues to deepen, I became especially interested in lactation and feeding support. I recently passed the board exam and am a Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).
I offer flexible, gentle, and compassionate support to all. I see every birth and every family as unique and wonderful. I recognize that this time is complex. You may feel excited, joyous, and overwhelmed. Or, maybe you just feel scared. I acknowledge that this journey looks and feels different for everyone. Whatever your path, I will walk it with you. It is my greatest honor to partner with you in these tender moments.
