Spotlight On: Ruby Daniel, Doula

I am a certified Labor and Postpartum Doula working on Chicago’s Northwest side. I focus on informing, supporting, and uplifting families through the transitions they face in labor and postpartum. 

In labor support, I focus on informing families of their care options in every situation so that every family member feels prepared and empowered to have an informed, safe, and intentional birth experience. Expecting parents can anticipate learning how to move through labor with decision-making tools, evidence-based resources, assistance in the late stages of pregnancy, and a comforting advocate in the hospital room. 

I have extensive experience with children, bringing immediate warmth and comfort with families postpartum. I bring resources and guidance to families hoping to learn to care for their babies, understand their sleep and behavior, and support the feeding experience. My postpartum focus also includes how to nourish mothers recovering from any type of delivery, with emotional, physical, and structural support. 

I am an avid cook, love to help take care of family pets, and am more than willing to keep your home tidy and clean. I look forward to the opportunities I receive to care for each and every family I meet in the pregnancy, labor, and postpartum time. 

If you are interested in working together, I take private clients as well as work through multiple agencies if you are pursuing insurance or workplace reimbursement, or FSA/HSA funds. Please fill out this form if you are interested in learning more about my services and working together!
