Traditional Birth Care

Doula Support

  • Three individualized prenatal visits to help you prepare your mind body and spirit for your birth ceremony. Additional prenatal visits may be scheduled if needed. The priorities for these visits are making sure you feel confident about your birth, getting to know each other and building a trusting relationship.

  • Ongoing text and email support between visits.

  • On-call support from 38 weeks until the birth (this may be adjusted if you have a history of shorter gestations).

  • In-person, hands-on birth support during labor. This support includes massage and other comfort measures that we will discuss prenatally, emotional support and guidance for your birth partner. Note: I will likely need to take breaks to eat and nap, as labor can last several days.

  • Two postpartum visits that include some of the following traditional postpartum healing techniques, herbal baths, limpias, massage, pelvic steams and belly binding.

$2,000 (If this fee is a barrier for your family, please reach out for sliding scale and payment plan options).

The first step is to email me at jagauarmdcn@gmail.com to schedule a free get-to-know-you call and see if we’re a good fit! I look forward to hearing from you. :)

Cerradas / Closing Ceremonies

This ancient Mesoamerican ceremony that is traditionally performed at the end of the first 6 weeks postpartum to support the birthing person in “closing” the 13 energetic portals that open during pregnancy and childbirth and also bringing their physical body back into alignment. This practice is healing regardless of the outcome of the pregnancy or birth and can be performed in the later postpartum period or even years after giving birth. This practice can even be beneficial after other transformative or difficult life events. The cerrada will support you as you move into a new stage of your life.

I would be honored to support your journey by facilitating this sacred space for you to call your energy back and move forward. Email me at jaguarmdcn@gmail.com.

Hear from families I’ve supported

  • ”I would recommend it 100% because it was a huge support before, during and after my pregnancy, especially during labor. Having their presence gave me strength in the moments that I needed the most. Todos los recursos que me brindaron, la información recibida que me ayudó aprender más y así llevar un embarazo saludable y sobre todo estar preparada para el momento parto. Fue una de las experiencias más bonitas que he tenido. Gracias a las doulas me sentí más segura e informada para el día de mi parto. Su aporte fue fundamental para mi bienestar emocional.”

  • “Noemí is an amazing angel of a doula. I was in labor for 4 days and she was by my side every step of the way. The love, care and support that she gave to my family and I really helped us during my birth process. We now consider Noemí a part of our family! There is no question who would be my doula for future births. Forever grateful for you!”

    —E.N.W.

  • “Having a doula made my journey so much easier during my pregnancy. I felt supported and heard and not alone in a time where I felt worse. It feels good having someone who you trust during this process especially if it's your first time having a baby. Then sharing the knowledge they have with you can truly help with your confidence as a parent. The biggest benefit was forsure having someone there to reach out to when I needed even just someone to speak to. The support made me feel so much more secure during this pregnancy. I just really appreciate Noemí, Sonia and Vanessa for the support they provided. They are a strong team and know what they are doing ❤️. I don't know how I would have made through this pregnancy with out them and their support.”

    —S.G.

  • "I’d say that it’s a must, it’s a very vulnerable moment and having a doula helps so much. The support they provide by listening to you, being on your side and taking care of you is essential to have a good experience during labor. The biggest benefit was to have them by my side taking care of me, giving me support and comfort. Their genuine and caring personality made me feel among literally sisters."

    —F.G.

  • “Es una excelente decisión contar con alguien en quien se puede confiar y apoyarse. Gracias por toda la ayuda y soporte en el camino de tener a mi bebé.”

  • "Es el mejor apoyo que puedan tener y que te libera de muchos miedos internos. Te guía durante todo el proceso.”
