English- and Hebrew-speaking doula for birth and education, in central Israel.
I can't promise a predictable experience. But I can support your journey, wherever it takes us.
We meet before, discuss tools and techniques, and then I show up for you when it counts.
It's your birth, you know best.
I just help you figure it out.
Practical prep for first births, VBACs, cesareans, and the specific quirks of birth in Israeli hospitals.
I'll teach you what to expect.
I translate the language, the birth culture, and the "that's how it works here" moments so you can focus on your birth and recovery.
I even know where the pharmacy is.
I spent years building tech that treats humans like people before taking an Irgun Hamenifa certified doula course. Turns out my skills translate pretty well to a 3am delivery.
Births rarely go according to plan. But they always go better with a woman in the room who makes you laugh.
We make sure we like each other. About 20 minutes. No commitment, no loud breathing.
2 or 3 meetings. We discuss expectations, practice tools, and talk through the "what ifs."
I show up and stay with you through the birth. After, we can debrief and process your experience.
