Melanie Wachsman

Melanie Wachsman is a birth and postpartum doula committed to helping moms and moms-to-be experience the birth and postpartum they envision, whether a mother expresses a desire for meditation or medication. After volunteering for two years in the Labor and Delivery Department at Cedars-Sinai, she understands hospital policies and works within them to advocate for a delivery that aligns with each mom-to-be’s wishes. Yoga is another tool she uses to help moms reach their birthing and postpartum goals. She is a Certified Ma Yoga RPYT Instructor and holds additional certifications in breath work, pre/postnatal nutrition, hypnobirthing, and lactation. As a postpartum doula she supports successful breastfeeding, bonding with baby, and managing daily life in the postpartum phase, with nurturing self-care at the core of her work.
