Hello! I'm Dominique Edwards, fondly known as "Dom the Veteran Doula." I hail from the vibrant city of Paterson, NJ, where my journey of compassion and service began. In 2011, I took a leap into the unknown and joined the military, proudly serving for 13 enriching years.
During my military tenure, I pursued my passion for justice at Berkeley College in Woodland Park, NJ, earning a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice. My heart has always been drawn to the helping profession, whether working with the homeless or at-risk youth. It's here that I discovered my calling—a purpose that drives me to make a meaningful difference.
While stationed in the beautiful state of Hawaii, I embarked on a transformative journey to become a doula. Those late nights and early mornings were a labor of love, culminating in my certification as a Full-Spectrum Community Doula in September 2022.
Now, as "Dom the Veteran Doula," my mission is to help you welcome new life with care and empowerment. I am working to help bridge the gap between hospitals by fostering strong relationships with doulas and medical personnel, ensuring every birth experience is as smooth and supportive as possible. I'm thrilled to be a part of your journey and look forward to assisting you in creating beautiful moments filled with love and joy.
