About Me
Hi.
My name is Naomi Sullivan.
I am the proud owner and operator of CornerStone Doula Support and Beyond.
I grew up in a little community really close to Peggy's Cove, here in Nova Scotia. I have 7 brothers and 2 sisters, so growing up my house was always full and loud. I absolutely loved it!
I have an amazing supportive husband of 10 1/2 years and 3 beautiful and wonderful children that are my world!
I loved babies even as a small child myself. If my parents couldn't find me at a party we were attending, they knew to go to where ever there was a little one and I was always right there beside them. My aunt used to call me her little Mamaleh (pronounced mamala), which in Yiddish means "little mama". *She still calls me that to this day and I love it <3
​
I really started perusing doula work when I was looking into surrogacy. I heard first hand many stories of the challenges women face needing extra support and love, both parents and surrogates. I wanted, and ended up being, a support for both surrogates and intended parents through mentorship and birth/postpartum doula work. I knew this was something I wanted to do as a career. I took all necessary trainings (through DONA international) and then some, and still continue to take trainings to better support those in need.
​
I have almost always been involved in the pregnancies of those around me, yes even as a child. I found it so incredible, and still do. Now being a mother of 3 myself, I know how amazing but also how unpredictable it can be. Prenatal, birth, and postpartum all have ups and downs, and every journey is different. What you came to expect from a previous pregnancy is not likely how the next one will go. I have learned that you need to expect the best but prepare for your plans to not go exactly as you wish.
​
My passion is helping those bring life into this world no matter the situation. Whether it's your own little bundle of joy, a surrogate baby, adoption, or anything in between. I want to help you have the birth story you want, your way.. and beyond!
