Hi! I’m Tikva…
I’m a wife, mom and grandmother in Baltimore, Maryland. I enjoy knitting, painting, baking sourdough and sitting down with a hot cup of coffee and a good book. After many years of simultaneously working in childcare, running my own retail business and providing doula services, I am excited to now solely be focussing on supporting women and couples in their birth journeys.
I offer birth and postpartum doula services and childbirth education classes, both within the Baltimore Jewish community and for the Greater Baltimore community at large.
It all began with an experience…
About eight years ago, a friend asked me to attend her first birth with her. I realized from that experience how much I love supporting woman and couples in childbirth and empowering them to have the birth they want.
Whether I am - preparing a couple in my child education classes, supporting them during the actual birth or helping them transition to caring for the baby at home - I always feel so privileged to have been invited into their space at such a special and vulnerable time.
I truly treasure each experience and am so grateful that I am able to do what I am passionate about each time I support a couple in this journey.
