Doula Services in NYC metro area

Doula NYC Maeva

As a doula, I believe birth is one of the most powerful and transformative experiences in life. And you deserve to feel calm, confident, and supported—every step of the way.

My role is to hold space for your unique path and offer grounded, compassionate support as you make choices that resonate with you.

Since 2012, I’ve been walking alongside growing families in NYC as a HypnoDoula, childbirth educator, and emotional anchor during one of life’s biggest transitions. My approach is grounded, heart-led, and rooted in the belief that your body already knows what to do—you just need the right tools, support, and space and sometimes medical help to let it unfold.

I’m here to help you find your way—whether that means planning an unmedicated birth, choosing an epidural, or staying open to all possibilities. As your doula, I hold space for your process, offer evidence-based guidance, and support your decisions with compassion and care.

A native of France, I became a certified hypnotist in 2009, deeply inspired by the mind-body connection. My journey into birth work began shortly after, when clients started asking me to support them through labor. Since then, I’ve never looked back.

My Training Includes:

  • Certified HypnoBirthing Instructor with Marie Mongan, founder of HypnoBirthing®

  • Certified Spinning Babies Parent Educator with Gail Tully, creator of Spinning Babies®

  • Advanced Doula Training with Penny Simkin, founder of DONA and one of the leading voices in modern childbirth education

    I teach both group childbirth classes in Tribeca and Williamsburg and offer private sessions for families who want a more customized experience. I’m also the creator of Confident Birth, a practical and empowering method that blends mindfulness, hypnosis, and relaxation tools for labor.

    The doula package below is designed to support you emotionally, physically, and practically — from the early days of pregnancy to the early postpartum recovery.

    Doula services include:

  • Birth Prep
  • Access to my Confident Birth online course, based on hypno-birthing and mindfulness and/ or attendance at a live, in-person class (Tribeca or Williamsburg, timing permitting)

  • Private Spinning Babies® Class
  • A hands-on session to optimize baby’s position — includes partner training and support techniques review.

  • Virtual Hypnosis Fear Release Session
