I am a nurse, a certified childbirth educator through the Hypnobirthing Institute and Istanbul Birth Academy, and a Birth and Postpartum Doula. I also hold certifications as a Breastfeeding Support Specialist and Consultant, IPF-certified Prenatal and Birth Pilates Instructor, and IAIM Infant Massage Instructor.

As the founder of Alya Doula Services, I am deeply passionate about offering loving, nurturing, and empowering support to families during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.

The birth of my own child marked a transformative moment for me—shifting my entire perspective on childbirth, women, and babies. Hearing about the loneliness and lack of support many women face in birth environments inspired in me a strong sense of duty to be part of the change. Since then, I’ve pursued a wide range of training to provide holistic and compassionate care.

My approach is simple: I encourage mothers and their birth partners to trust in the biology and physiology of birth. The human body is an incredible vessel, and birth is a meaningful, powerful journey. I aim to provide gentle and comprehensive support, helping families feel informed, confident, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.
