I’ve been there. And still am.
Hi mama! My name is Ksenia, I’m a holistic postpartum doula, nutrition consultant and mom of two based in Sunnyside, Queens.
I became interested in studying nutrition during postpartum with my first child when I experienced the challenges of modern motherhood. Being so undernourished, depleted, feeling tired but wired all the time, lacking sleep and living far away from the family - it all took a toll on my physical, mental and emotional state. Deep inside, I knew that my postpartum could and should feel different.
Studying at Oh Baby School of Nutrition, reading tons of studies, books and honest stories of other moms gave me an understanding of the nutrients, support and nourishment every mama needs in this season. This is also when I learned about postpartum doulas and the profound impact of the work they do. Something sparked in me, and I immediately knew that this was exactly what I wanted to do. I enrolled in Holistic Practitioner Method to deepen my knowledge and offer the support I wish I had when I first became a mom.
Today I offer in-person care for families in Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan and virtual support for mamas all over the world.
Outside of doula work, you can find me dancing with kids in the kitchen, saving inspo for my imaginary Upstate house on Pinterest, or sipping matcha :)
