Atlantic Body Care

Welcome to Atlantic Body Care, where I, Taylore Paruch, am proud to offer you waves of wellness and anchoring support for your birthing journey.

I am dedicated to holding judgment-free educational spaces that honor your bodily autonomy and consent. 

My holistic approach combines evidence-based comfort measures with sacred movement, positional guidance, and nutrient-rich culinary nourishment. 

Hiring a doula is a wonderful step toward a birth experience that feels safe, not scary. Please reach out to chat about how I can support your growing family.

Hayley Ryerson—Sage Sister Doula

Hi, I’m Hayley Ryerson, a labour and birth doula at Sage Sister Doula. My service focuses on facilitating informed choice through prenatal education and supporting birth physiology during labour and birth. My work with clients is to help them move towards and through birth feeling supported, seen, heard, and respected during this important life event. 

I provide evidence-based, in-the-moment, up-to-date care in the birthing room and in pre/post natals. My style could be described as empathetic, responsive, and assertive. "Hayley is a kind and gentle soul who cares deeply about her clients. She will listen to your needs and stand up for what you desire for the birth."-Amanda M.

When I am not attending births, I enjoy being in water, talking with friends, playing my fiddle, and dining out.

Let's talk! I offer a free 1 hour consultation, link below.

Wanda Cox, Graceful Beginnings Birth Services

Your birth and postpartum period is so important. How you navigate through it can have such a great impact on you, and your family. You deserve to be; listened to, centered in decision making, and supported both emotionally and physically in a way that makes sense to YOU. While birth can be unpredictable, the presence of this care should be consistent. I’d love to help you with that! A little about me: I’ve been a doula since 1999. While the families I serve remain my greatest source of learning, I’m always exploring new ways to serve my clients. In addition to being a Certified Birth and Postpartum doula, I teach high-quality Evidence-Based Birth® childbirth classes, I am a Certified Lactation Educator (CAPPA), Certified Infant Massage Instructor (IAIM) and a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Instructor (LCCE). I also train Birth Doulas and train Infant Massage Instructors as well! Explore my website for more information on my offerings. I’m looking forward to exploring how we might work together!
