Evelyn Arfsten, Birth and Postpartum Doula

My name is Evelyn, and I started Newma with the whole family in mind. I strive to create a safe and healthy environment that supports not just the mother and baby, but the rest of the family as well to create a positive birthing experience for all involved. I have a passion for unifying the whole family, no matter what the family unit looks like. I have always had a desire to work in the birthing field, but it was really being in the room as my first niece was born that propelled me into becoming a Doula. The moment a baby takes its first breath is one of the most incredible feelings in the world, and I want to support the parents so that they can fully experience that moment with their own child. With a heart for holistic, family-centered care, I offer emotional, physical, and informational support, tailoring my approach to each family’s unique needs. my role is to help you feel confident in your birth choices and create a peaceful space for you and your baby to thrive. I am a committed lover and follower of Jesus, and I offer Christ-centered encouragement to any client who wants it! I would be honored to walk with you and your family through this beautiful and intimate experience.
