About me
I'm a Certified Postpartum Doula and Naps Night Doula who is passionate about creating supportive, safe space for families as they adjust to life with a new baby. I offer personalized postpartum care that blends emotional reassurance with practical, hands-on support —helping parents feel more confident, rested, and cared for during the early weeks at home. My approach is rooted in evidence-based guidance, compassionate, communication, and meeting each family where they are. With more than 25 years in the Early Childcare field, I've supported children through school age and bring a deep understanding of child development into my Postpartum work. I've also provided informal support to families for many years and made the intentional decision to become a Certified Postpartum Doula in 2019. Since then, I've continued to expand my skills through ongoing mentorship and training, including the Newborn & Postpartum Support Academy and Safe Sleep Ambassador certification.

After experiencing Ummi2Ummi Post Partum Doula, I Probably dont have enough words to describe the love, attention, meticulous care & concern and professionalism displayed. Over the last several years, my wife has recieved postpartum care and support from Ummi2Ummi Post Partum Doula as have some others in our circle. Ummi2Ummi Post Partum Doula consistently provides the same level of attention and care like you are family. Care like this is priceless.

I’ve utilized Rasheedah for both of my pregnancies. She was amazing, patient, and extremely knowledgeable when it came to new parenting tips, especially around breast-feeding assistance, & sleep schedules. In addition, Rasheedah was able to help me get on a better sleep schedule with my little ones. She also reiterated that each child is different, which I think is important to remember as a mother. I would recommend her services for anyone who is having a child for the first time or, may be having a child in your older years and you just need a recap or refresher course on parenting a newborn. I would certainly recommend her services if you’re on the fence I would say definitely give her a try. You will not be disappointed!
