Meet Yasmine
Yasmine is a DONA trained birth and postpartum doula and a mother of two. Supporting families through these life events is her calling and she feels honored that she is able to walk alongside families in this capacity.
As a labor doula she supports all births and enjoys helping families to find their voice and have a positive birth experience. As a postpartum doula Yasmine connects with each family and meets them where they are and supports them exactly as they need. For families adding to an already busy household, she jumps right in and helps in all of the ways. She cares deeply and wants each family to have the best possible care and experience.
Yasmine has always cared deeply for others and she first discovered her passion for caring and supporting others as a career while accompanying her older sister to the nursing home where her sister was training as a CNA. Seeing the joy on the resident’s faces lit up the room and her heart! It’s an engraved memory that would guide her down the path to serving her community and the elderly for 6 years as a cna/caregiver.
Becoming a doula seemed to be a natural transition for her after she became a mother. Yasmine realized how important and life changing birth and postpartum were and she was so glad that she had the tools and the knowledge to navigate this for her family. She found that it was incredibly important for her to be her own advocate and learn as much as she possibly could. She took this passion and turned it into an amazing career.
Yasmine supports families eagerly and with a warm heart and evidence based information so that families feel empowered throughout their journey.
In her free time Yasmine enjoys being home and spending time with her own family.

“We went with Chicago Family Doulas for our birth and postpartum doula and night doula and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. All we needed was one great call with Anna who right away paired us with Kelly, who was PRECISELY what I wanted in a birth and postpartum doula, and with Yasmine, who was the perfect night doula. Kelly was warm but still firm in the hospital with us. She took care of me while my husband and the NICU team cared for my newborn – very scary time! Yasmine not only let me get some much needed, worry-free sleep but helped me with breastfeeding and better understanding my newborn and my postpartum journey. “
