Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

With a passion for supporting families during the transformative experience of childbirth, I've had the privilege of assisting in four unique births, ranging from hospital settings to the warmth of home environments. My journey as a birth doula has taken me across Connecticut, Florida, New Jersey, and New York, allowing me to connect with diverse communities. Committed to accessibility, I've dedicated time to work with women who, while unable to afford traditional fees, have expressed gratitude through heartfelt donations for travel and accommodations. Additionally, I've provided consulting services, offering valuable insights and information to women seeking extra support and guidance throughout the intricate stages of pregnancy. My mission is to ensure that every birthing experience is marked by comfort, empowerment, and the genuine care that defines the essence of Amma’s Touch.

I cannot express enough gratitude for Uniques exceptional care during the birth of my baby. Her attentiveness was unparalleled, and her tranquil presence made the experience truly unforgettable. She is unlike any other birthing attendant I've ever had, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a calm and supportive presence during childbirth.

My Experience with my seastar Unique Medina as my doula... Unique is calming, positive, and a fun person to be around. Through my pregnancy and labor she made sure i was always comfortable & didnt push me to do anything i didnt want to do. That is except at the end when it was feeling extra hard to push out my baby girl lol. She helped me with my courage to make it through because Im not gonna lie but that last hr of pushing, i was ready for an epidural lol. I felt I was pushing for a long time. I had my baby in the hospital due to certain circumstances. But I am glad Unique was there by my side and assisting me the whole way. I am incredibly Thankfull to know her. During the months of pregnancy, she was always there making sure i was alright. She always provided with no hesitation. She is a great ear & person that you never have to second guess. This woman is a true gift.
