My journey began in 2005 while completing my studies in Psychology and working as a mentor of children with emotional and behavioral disorders in Puerto Rico. Five years later, I moved to the State of Florida and transitioned into working as an Infant and Toddler Developmental Specialist (ITDS) with parents of children with developmental needs. After attending my friend's birth in 2013, I knew I wanted to extend my support to families during the childbearing years. 

Doula Caring by Nicole Rivera was founded in 2015 to support, educate, empower, and advocate for pregnant people and newborn families worldwide. My goal is to provide evidence-based and holistic care to folks who are committed to prepare for a physiological birth and receive traditional postpartum care. 

As a Doula, I am passionate about childbearing rights, birth-related anatomy, the role of the baby in labor, worldwide postpartum traditions and cuisine, and newborns typical behavior. My mission is to protect the wellbeing of our future generations by caring for their loved ones during the most crucial period of their lifetimes.
