There are a lot of decisions you have to make as you prepare to meet your baby. You’re constantly researching everything from the car seat to the perfect crib. When it comes to creating the actual birth plan, it can really start to feel overwhelming. There are so many styles of birth, and it can be difficult to find the one that’s right for you. If you’re seeking help navigating the birth world, I would love to introduce you to Cindy Terranova at Tree of Life Doula. Cindy has made it her life’s work to help people prepare for their deliveries, and she’s ready to be there for you, too!
About the Tree of Life Doula
Washington, New Jersey
When giving birth, Cindy Terranova has personal experience with nearly every style. She’s given birth five different times and has gone through everything from a premature hospital birth to a midwife-assisted home water birth. She believes that people deserve to have options regarding their delivery, and it’s her mission to prepare people for whatever birth they choose to have!
She provides evidence-based education and lactation services so you can have the experience that works for you. Near the end of last year, she had to put her services on a brief pause to welcome their family’s seventh baby, but in the Spring of 2024, she plans to be back to work with both families and birth professionals to bring them options.
Services
Cindy has created a comprehensive childbirth class offering information tailored to your unique situation. She’s created a hybrid course that you can easily fit into your busy schedule. You’ll go through two in-person sessions where you will practice your labor skills and receive gentle feedback. You and your partner can watch five weeks of online videos together.
You’ll also have four video chats with your instructors and mentoring from Cindy herself. While these courses provide evidence-based information for every kind of labor, people can use it to count toward the required courses for the freestanding New Jersey birth center, Our Birthing Center.
Specialty
Cindy has worked with endless passionate birth experts to certify them as a doula. If you’ve always dreamed of helping people write their birth stories, you can enroll to start your new career!
Cindy is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. She includes breastfeeding assistance and newborn care in each course. She’s also currently working to expand her practice to provide one-on-one support.
