Attends hospital births? All Hospitals
I Believe in honoring your preferences whether they lean toward high-intervention, low-intervention, or anywhere in between. Every hospital is different with high leave traffic, staff and will push different levels of intervention and its is my job to best prepare a client for that.

Attends birth center births? All Birth Centers
A birth center is an excellent option for someone who prefers the comfort of quiet and a more à la carte labor with a midwife or OB and seems like what could be the perfect middle ground between hospital and home birth for certain laboring parents. Birthing centers usually give you all the options of an at home birth with the security of certain levels of medical care which a Doula or midwife might not have available to bring to a homebirth. I would be honored to Doula for anyone choosing a birthing center as their labor/ birth location

Attends home births? Any Home Birth
A home birth is the most intimate birth setting, with the right preparation and labor team it can be a beautiful experience. It is also important to have back up plans for transfers to hospitals for any potential risk that may happen during the birth. I would be honored to Doula for anyone choosing a birthing center as their labor/ birth location.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our Francesca. From the moment we began preparing for our birth, she provided us with invaluable information about our options for delivering at NYU Brooklyn. She helped us feel informed, confident, and empowered throughout the entire process.

One of the things that stood out most was her availability and responsiveness. No matter when we reached out with questions or concerns, she was always there with thoughtful guidance and support. Having someone so knowledgeable and accessible made a huge difference during pregnancy and labor.

During my 18-hour labor, Francesca was truly irreplaceable. She stayed with us every step of the way, helping us understand what was happening and providing information that allowed us to make informed decisions throughout the birth process. Her calm presence helped me feel safe and supported even during the most challenging moments.

Francesca also provided incredible hands-on support during contractions, including massage, comfort measures, position changes, and anything else I needed to stay as comfortable as possible. Her dedication, compassion, and expertise were beyond anything I could have imagined.

Looking back on my birth experience, I honestly cannot imagine going through it without her. She was an advocate, educator, support person, and source of strength all in one. I am deeply grateful for everything she did for me, my husband, and our growing family. I would wholeheartedly recommend Francesca to anyone looking for a doula who truly cares and goes above and beyond for her clients.

Words can’t express how wonderful it was to have Francesca attend our birth. From our first contact with her, she went above and beyond to make us feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. She was consistently professional, attentive, and deeply compassionate in ways we appreciated more than we can say.

Francesca arrived during my early labor, at a moment when I didn’t yet realize how much I needed her, and her presence made all the difference. Even before our midwife arrived, her calm support, kindness, and reassurance helped me stay relaxed, grounded, and trusting in the natural, unmedicated birth I had chosen. Her comforting touch, soothing massages, counter pressure, and steady encouragement guided me through labor and helped me achieve a fully unmedicated birth.

Beyond her incredible support, we treasured Francesca’s personality and presence. When we didn’t have a birth photographer, she captured special moments we will cherish forever. After labor, she even picked up our breakfast so we could focus on bonding with our baby, a generous and thoughtful gesture that perfectly reflects how she anticipates needs and goes above and beyond in unexpected ways.

She has continued to check in on us and our baby, and we are so deeply grateful for her care. Francesca has become like family to us and will always be a meaningful part of our birth story. We highly recommend her and her services. She truly gets all the gold stars.
