Professional Renewal Due: May 1st, 2025
Background/Experience that you think is beneficial to Doula work: I have been working as a registered nurse since 2019 and have been working as a pediatric nurse since 2022. My experience as a pediatric nurse has allowed me to care for families as a whole and educate them on their health-related needs. I also help lead a monthly women's support group at my mosque, which allows me to gain more insight into the needs of women in my community and how to best support them.
What led you to become a Doula?: I was inspired to become a postpartum doula after seeing the postpartum experiences of women close to me and how difficult it was for them. I saw there was a lack of support in the community for families going through this and wanted to be the compassionate, supportive person to help families during their postpartum journeys. I also come from a culture where women are taught to take care of others while sacrificing their own needs and want to remind moms that their needs matter, too
What are some positive comments made about you by other people?:
People always let me know that they appreciate how proactive I am and how calming my presence is for them.
