Your IVF Doula
Where Science Meets Support
Clinical Embryologist | Fertility Patient Advocate | IVF Mama
Hi, I'm Daria
A qualified clinical embryologist (IVF scientist) with nearly a decade of hands-on experience working in IVF clinics around the world. I am also a mama of two IVF babies.
I deeply understand the enduring discomfort of countless injections, the dilemmas of whether to continue or halt an IVF cycle. These experiences are not just professional anecdotes for me; I've lived them personally.
When you're in the middle of it, every phone call from the lab feels enormous. It's hard to ask the right questions when you're scared, overwhelmed or just exhausted. That's exactly when having someone like me in your corner matters most.
You've got this, and I've got your back!
Assisting you in making the best decisions for you and your family.
Many virtual hugs,
- Your IVF Doula

Who I help...
You don't have to be at rock bottom to reach out.
Maybe you're about to start your first IVF cycle and want to go in prepared.
Maybe you've just had a failed cycle and aren't sure what went wrong or what to ask next.
Maybe you're a single mother by choice navigating all of this without a partner, or a same-sex couple piecing together a process no one fully explained to you.
Maybe you've been told everything looks "fine" — and that answer feels anything but fine.
Whatever brought you here, you're someone who knows that having the right information at the right time can change everything.
My clients are people who are done leaving appointments with more questions than answers. They're ready for a knowledgeable, independent voice in their corner — someone who understands the science and the emotional weight of what they're carrying.
If you are looking to grow your family and you're navigating fertility treatment, I'm here for you.
From a determined and skilled embryologist with a relentless 'Can-Do' attitude to a compassionate IVF mama, I've taken another big leap to be here for you as Your IVF Doula.
I help people on their fertility treatment journey. You want a baby - come talk to me. I will help you work out where to go. Who to see. When you need to see them. What you need to ask. I sometimes refer to myself as a fertility treatment project manager. Fertility treatment is your project and I am going to manage that project for you.

"Her expert knowledge provided me the scientific comfort that I was looking for as well as emotional support during the rollercoaster IVF ride."
There are no words to describe how blessed I was to have Daria’s advice during my IVF cycle. Mind you, this was my 4th cycle and yet I learned so much from Daria! Daria is caring, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable, empathetic, and simply the best!
She was my sounding board through the highs and lows of my journey. I could literally ask her about anything... From an article I've read to embryo quality results to the do's and don't of "all things IVF". Daria is an embryologist by training which was such an important factor for me. Her expert knowledge provided me the scientific comfort that I was looking for as well as emotional support during the rollercoaster IVF ride.
Daria has given me peace of mind throughout. It helped immensely that she's gone through a similar journey herself and her compassion shined through. I would recommend Daria to anyone who is thinking of going the IVF route.... 1st cycle or 5th! Daria is simply AMAZING!
