Doula: Lis
Hola, I’m Lis, a full-spectrum doula and birthworker supporting families throughout Greater Boston across every stage of their reproductive journey. I believe you deserve to feel informed, respected, heard, and fully supported in your choices. My role is to stand beside you, help you navigate each step, and create space for you to feel confident in your own experience.
I grew up in a Dominican immigrant household in East Boston’s Orient Heights. My upbringing shaped so much of how I see family, community, care, and what it means to show up for the people around you. My family roots have also kept me connected to birth work. I’ve always held space for birth work in my life, and becoming a doula has allowed me to continue that tradition while creating something of my own. Alongside my work as a doula, I also work in public service as a public policy and public safety professional. My public service career has taught me how complex navigating systems can be and has deepened my appreciation for the importance of information, preparation, advocacy, and having someone in your corner when you’re trying to understand your options. Working in public safety has given me a deep appreciation for preparation, education, and the value of having a calm, steady presence. I’ve seen how preparation can create confidence, ease uncertainty, and help people feel more grounded as they move through unfamiliar experiences.
This work has strengthened my belief in the importance of access, advocacy, being informed, and having a voice in the decisions that affect you. Birth work feels like a natural extension of that. As a doula, I’m not there to tell you what your reproductive journey should look like or make decisions for you. I’m there to help you understand your options, prepare for what may come, ask questions, communicate your preferences, and feel confident in whatever choices are right for you. You have someone in your corner, not just during labor, but throughout the entire journey. My approach is heart-centered, practical, and personal. I believe you deserve to feel safe enough to ask questions, informed enough to make your own decisions, and confident enough to know that you don’t have to navigate it all alone. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating postpartum, exploring your reproductive options, or simply looking for someone who will meet you where you are, I’m here to walk alongside you, offering support, education, and a steady presence every step of the way.
