Doing this job has always been an honour. I love being able to help families with their transition into parenthood!

Hint: nothing *guarantees* a positive outcome... But the more things you do that help your body get ready, the better off you will be!

Hi! It's been a while since I've introduced myself, so I figured it was time for a refresh.

My name is Dajana (pronounced "Diana") and I am the very excited-to-see-alpaca-babies human in the photo above. I usually am equally excited to see human babies, but there's rarely a photo op happening during that time.

I've been a doula for 6 years now, and I love working with families to get them ready for the birth of their baby, as well as supporting them afterwards while they adjust to all the fun, and not so fun, things being a new parent can bring!

I think becoming a parent should look like however you want it to, and I see my role simply as helping you get there with all the information you need so you can make informed choices that work best for your family!

Sometimes my support looks like making sure you know how to advocate for yourself in situations, and sometimes it looks like helping you troubleshoot why your brand new baby seems unhappy with being earth side. Often it looks like making sure your fridge is stocked with all the good food you will need to recover well once you have your baby.

If you're thinking that a doula might be someone that you'd like to look into adding to your birth/postpartum team, I'd love to meet you! I offer virtual or in person consults, and am currently booking into the new year, with a few spots still open for the next few months.

I can't wait to hear from you :)

Inquiries for 2027 are already rolling in, so make sure you book a consult if you're interested in having a doula at your birth or during your postpartum period!

I am forever grateful that I found BADT and was able to learn from people like JB ❤️

"As a transmasculine non-binary person myself, I never imagined I would ever be in a leadership role with a doula training organization. At best, I expected that some training programs would acknowledge that folks like me exist (usually while tokenizing and sensationalizing our existence), and it is incredible to me that I work for BADT and am able to center my own community in the curriculum I teach.

Reproductive care work is a heavily gendered professional field. Only including “moms” as a doula ignores the fact that people of all genders have been gestating, birthing, experiencing loss, and parenting throughout all of human history.

Because we are all socialized within dominant culture, which is cis-heteronormative, it can be hard to break old habits. The great thing about Gender Affirming Practices is that they are liberating for everyone we serve (and for us as birthworkers, too), and if we learn to integrate them in a way that is expansive, rather than contracted, they feel celebratory!" - Jenna "JB" Brown, BADT Program Director and Co-Lead Teacher

ALL of our courses center narratives of family building that are often left out. Want to learn more? Tap the link in our IG bio and head to the BADT website to check out our courses, or visit:

I don't have a human baby, but I have a Mimi, and she is probably the biggest baby I have ever met.

And also the biggest reason I know how to use a baby wrap so well 😅

Hello! Welcome. My name is Diana and I am a certifying Doula through Doula Canada. Certifying means I am still learning how to effectively support birthing persons through their journey from conception all the way to the fourth trimester. I am learning all about Birth and Postpartum support, as well as Perinatal Education.

Becoming a Doula has been important to me for a few years. I have always wanted to a career that was meaningful and impactful. I believe birth should be happy, as well as healthy, and look forward to supporting future birthing persons of Edmonton and Area!
