Guiding You Through Birth & Beyond

Compassionate doula support in NYC for every phase of your journey—rooted in intuition, empowerment, and care.

Hi, I’m Rigel!

I’m a birth and postpartum doula and I’ve have had the privilege of attending 100+ births across the tristate area. I believe in inclusive, affirming care for all birthing bodies and I advocate fiercely for every client I serve.

Doula work has been my greatest teacher and a gift that continues to shape me. I’m honored by every person who has invited me to be a part of such a special and transformative time of their lives.

  • Birth Doula Support

    Emotional, physical, and informational support during pregnancy and birth to help you feel empowered, prepared, and cared for every step of the way.

  • Postpartum Care

    Gentle, affirming support in the early weeks after birth—focused on healing, rest, infant care, and helping your family thrive.

  • Lactation Counseling

    Evidence-based, compassionate guidance to support chest/breastfeeding or bottle-feeding—wherever you are in your feeding journey.

  • Perinatal Fitness

    Joyful movement tailored to your body and energy—before, during, or after pregnancy. Let’s make it fun, sustainable, and supportive.

Inclusive Care Means Accessible Pricing

Everyone deserves support during birth and postpartum—regardless of income or circumstance. I offer a flexible sliding scale because I believe this work should be rooted in equity, not exclusivity. If cost is a concern, let’s talk. We’ll find a plan that honors your needs and makes care possible.

  • "Having Rigel as our doula to accompany us through the birth of our first child was by far the best decision we made during my pregnancy."
