Mammissi Birth Services is a BIPOC- and woman-owned doula agency and training organization serving families and birthworkers in New Jersey and beyond. We provide evidence-based, culturally responsive support through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond.
WHO WE ARE
Mammissi Birth Services was created by doulas, for families and birthworkers.
We are a BIPOC- and woman-owned agency rooted in reproductive justice, cultural humility, and the belief that every birth deserves safety, respect, and love.
Our team brings over twenty years of combined experience supporting families through fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and loss. We also train and mentor doulas and perinatal professionals who are changing birth outcomes in their own communities.
Whether you are a new parent, planning a pregnancy, or a doula ready to deepen your skills, you belong here.
Support for Parents & Families
Becoming a parent is a powerful, life-changing journey — and you deserve care that honors your story, your culture, and your choices. At Mammissi Birth Services, we offer personalized support for every stage of the perinatal experience, from fertility and pregnancy to birth and postpartum healing. Our experienced doulas provide guidance, education, and encouragement so you can make informed decisions and feel confident every step of the way.
Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, we meet you exactly where you are. From creating a birth plan that reflects your values to easing your transition home with newborn and postpartum care, our goal is to nurture you and your family holistically. With compassion, cultural awareness, and evidence-based practices, we ensure that every parent we serve feels seen, supported, and empowered.
Explore our prenatal, birth, and postpartum services to find the care that fits your journey.
For Doulas & Birthworks
Mammissi is also a home for birthworkers. We offer training, mentorship, and advanced workshops designed by BIPOC doulas who understand the realities of this work.

What Our Families Say
Theresa R.
“I couldn't have asked for a better pregnancy, labor and delivery experience than the one I had because of Mammissi Birth Services! They are so knowledgeable, so kind, so accessible not just to you but to your support team so you're all ready when the big day comes.”
Janaisha U.
"I had the best experience with Cristina. I wouldn't have survived without her. I can't say enough amazing things about this team."
Abigail H.
"During transition and pushing, when I said I couldn't do it, she looked me in the eyes and said YOU'RE ALREADY DOING IT. Cristina is a 10/10 doula recommendation and I'm so thankful for her companionship during the labor and delivery of my second born."
Our Commitment to Birth Equity
Black, Brown, and Indigenous birthing people continue to face preventable harm in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. At Mammissi Birth Services, we stand firmly in the work of birth equity and reproductive justice.
We partner with hospitals, community organizations, and coalitions across New Jersey to increase access to community-based doulas, improve perinatal workforce pathways, and uplift the voices of families most impacted by the maternal health crisis.
When you work with Mammissi—as a parent or as a doula—you are part of a movement, not just a service.
