Carolyn Parker
Birth & Postpartum Doula
My Doula CP | Birth & Postpartum Doula | DONA Trained/Manhattan Birth Certified
My Story
I became a doula to help others. This work is part of my spiritual practice, a way of continuing my ancestors’ journey and reestablishing important traditions. Women once provided each other with comfort, encouragement, and guidance. We held hands, stroked brows, and wiped tears. We stood together and shared a bond. I want to serve my sisters of today by reminding them that they are never alone, and that we are stronger together.
Doula, a supportive person during delivery, supportive to the mother, supportive to the partner and the entire family, providing any form of support that a mother needs before and after delivery.
Client Experiences
Peace, Calm & Balance
Peace
The birth of my second baby was what I would call a "zen birth". Carolyn exudes calm and a gentle peacefulness which blanketed the entire room and set the tone for an easy delivery. She was also a huge support to my husband and put me at ease knowing he was taken care of allowing my baby to come into the world surrounded by tranquility.
Ryan Wolf
Calm
Having Carolyn Parker as our doula during one of the most powerful and emotional times of our life helped my husband and I maintain a sense of calm going into my c-section. Energy is contagious, and we are so grateful to have been in Carolyn’s presence and caught her calming energy during such a critical time when we needed it most.

Balance
Carolyn's participation in the birth of my daughter allowed me to be present for the birth, yet not anxious about what was happening and how it would unfold. She helped me find the balance between being truly mindful and aware of what was happening, while also being tranquil and unafraid of the process.
