Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

As a Full Spectrum Doula, I support loss and abortion clients and am extremely passionate about making sure parents feel supported and advocated for during these times. I work with many local perinatal services colleagues to try to provide the most well rounded umbrella of care I can for my clients! I run a local moms group with a colleague who is a perinatal mental health therapist, we dream of making sure all moms feel they have their village. My partner has opened a physical location here in Ocean County where there are a plethora of events, groups, resources and classes for parents and children! I am often there teaching classes and participating in the community we're building!

I offer three different birth packages so parents can choose what option works best for them! Postpartum packages are individualized to each family and will be built around your families specific needs. I also offer Fertility Doula services, including IVF and IUI support. Trained through Lamaze International as a Childbirth Educator, I offer comprehensive, evidence-based CBE classes, whether you prefer a private, in-home class for all the one on one attention, or a group class for making connections with other parents! Recently, I have completed Placenta Encapsulation training and offer placenta encapsulation, placenta tintures, cord keepsakes, & placenta prints. *I am an approved provider through Carrot benefits program. I am also able to provide an invoice for your health insurance if they allow reimbursement for doula services!*

Knowledgeable, patient, accessible- Chelsea is the definition of top notch. My experience with her as a first time mom was honestly nothing short of exceptional. Through all my moments of doubt and double guessing she was so supportive and reassuring. I was most grateful that I chose her to be my doula while I was in labour. I ended up having to be induced because I was a week and a half past my due date and chose to get an epidural. Both of these events were not at all in my birth plan. After a few hours in labour with very slow progression, Chelsea asked the nurse for assistance to get me on my knees, staying in an upright position using the hospital bed as support. Then she started doing some compressions and massages on my back and backside area. Literally within 10 minutes my water broke and within 20 minutes I delivered my baby. I was mind blown. She not only supported and guided me through the diversion in my birth plan, she cut my labour time significantly and saved me insurmountable headache. Insurmountable because at the time of delivery the umbilical cord was double wrapped around my baby's neck. Only God knows what would've happened if my labour was anymore delayed. If you're looking for a doula, Chelsea is your person. 100000%
