KAMUSTA!
AKO SI ANNA.
Hi! My name is Anna (she/they) and I'm a Queer + Pinay femme radical birthworker, project doula, educator, communications creative, and community organizer.
​
I'm the founder of Pocket Doula and I support emerging careworkers and reproductive health organizations in radicalizing and decolonizing their practice through heart-centered mentorships, queer reproductive justice (as was learned from king yaa), and community organizing. In my work, I use creative and collective means to disrupt and dismantle the many systems of oppression that hinder our liberation.
​
My deepest joys come from witnessing our communities thrive through community care, mutual aid, and abolition work.
I take care in understanding there is anti-racism work to be upheld in all facets of reproductive care and am committed to learning how to hold accountable the systems and complexes that continue to harm systematically underserved folks - especially 2Spirit, queer, trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming BIPGM (Black, Indigenous, and People of the Global Majority) folks.
​
Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to share spaces with you.

COMMUNITY COLLABORATIONS
Support for individuals and organizations in birthing ideas and projects centered around reproductive justice.
Every transition deserves support - same goes for transitions within a business, practice, or organization when it comes to moving through new projects and implementing ideas. In these collaborations, you and I will be co-conspirators together and finds ways to meaningfully and creatively work in community to bring your visions around reproductive care and social justice to fruition.

Support for birthworkers looking to radicalize their practice.
Whether you are a new, curious, or already practicing birthworker - there is always more we can learn to incorporate in our practice to make sure all folks are receiving the support they deserve. In these offerings, we explore anti-authoritarian and decolonial care, question the way we operate through white supremacist systems, and look into the ways we can move forward with centering community organizing and community care in our work.
REPRODUCTIVE SUPPORT FOR BIRTHING FOLKS AND FAMILIES
Support for folks in fertility, birth, postpartum, abortion, and loss.
Nurturing and non-judgemental emotional support. Services can be both physical or virtual. Whether support looks like building birth preferences, answering your questions and curiosities, building resource lists, holding your hand in active labour, cooking meals for you in postpartum, or quietly witnessing and loving you through an abortion or loss, I am here for you.
