The following bios are self-written by each of our doulas- personally expressing their inner thoughts, backgrounds and experience, in an effort to provide you with the best possible match for you. Doulas of CNY strive to provide you and your family with the best care and believe that offering you this bio section is a unique part of our agency.
At Doulas of CNY we believe that a doula's role is to support the Mom and her partner through THEIR labor, THEIR birth and THEIR experience, not to impose any personal beliefs or opinions on them. We supply a woman and her partner with information in which they can make the best personal decisions for them. We support the partner so that he is able to participate at his own comfort level. We believe a Doula's nonjudgmental, supportive role is extremely influential to the labor, birth and postpartum outcome.
Doulas of CNY offer extraordinary doula services and look forward to meeting you!

I am so blessed myself be a mother of five wonderful children, two boys and three girls. 18-30. My family is my true inspiration for pursuing my life as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. They have grown with me in my Doula career since 2000, and have been a wonderful support -they have been my 'doulas'! My decision to become a Doula came from the love of my own pregnancies and births. Prior to becoming a Doula, I had been involved in obstetrics as a medical secretary since 1983, family practice, my own daycare business and mothering, gaining strong knowledge in pregnancy, babies and family health. While raising my own children, I began networking with other mothers in my church, and we encouraged each other throughout our daily encounters with our children and finding local resources to assist us as needed.
The Lord has prepared me for this role, to compassionately support expectant mothers and partners through their journey. Over the beginning years as a doula, I quickly realized that a main focus and effort is about the work I do prior to the birth. If you don’t know what your choices are, you don’t have any. Women are choosing to become more active in their healthcare role, knowledgeable in pregnancy and birthing-- their own advocates, so that their birth can be the experience they choose. I am truly blessed to be a part of your miraculous, joyous, blessed event.
Assisting families after the birth of their baby is another beautiful part of my Doula experience. As a "seasoned" Christian Mom and Postpartum Doula, it is an honor to share my life experience as a mother of five aiding with little tips, emotional support and both professional, practical advice and empowering a family to adjust and welcome their new baby.
I am now offering Placenta Encapsulation. For more info, call me at 315 559 3265

Cindy Yale
Certified Birth Doula
I am very excited to introduce myself as Doulas of CNY newest birth doula! I have such a passion and love for standing beside birthing women during the miracle of bringing new life into this world. Helping women educate themselves about their choices and supporting them during this emotional, yet joyous event, is a personal goal and mission.
My family lives near the eastern banks of Cayuga Lake, in Aurora. We own Wellsview Farm, where work 90 acres of farmland. We grow hay, corn and soybeans and my youngest daughter has two horses she trains, shows and rides.
I have been blessed beyond measure to give birth to three beautiful, independant daughters and to help raise and mother a fourth daughter that I call my own. I supported and comforted my three older girls through the births of their children - yes, I am the proud grandmother of two grandsons and two granddaughters! All of our births were unique, special and different, and they grew in me a desire to support other birthing women.
In 2016, I began training with an amazing group of women, through DONA International, to become a certified birth doula. The training included the stages of labor and delivery, pain relief and comfort measures, breastfeeding and postpartum care. The three day retreat cemented within me a soul-driving desire to serve birthing women and their families. I promise to listen to and stand beside mommas as they make birth plans to ensure their wishes were met. I promise to massage, feed, nurture, walk with, support and comfort them along their entire journey. I promise to show them that every woman’s journey is different, special and unique. I promise to honor their trust in me as we work together growing their family.
I am very excited to join Christine and Jenna in offering the many services related to birth. Christine is passionate about placenta encapsulation and postpartum work. Jenna loves photography and will do maternity, newborn and family photos. If you are looking for it, Doulas of CNY can provide it!
If you are interested in learning more about our services or would like to meet with me to talk about a doula supported birth, please call Christine and set up an appointment! I look forward to meeting you and supporting your birth journey!,
