Karishma Darji
Meet Karishma! She has been a certified doula for 11 years and has been with OMG for 9 years. She has supported over 275 births and has extensive experience supporting both unmedicated and medicated births including many VBACs. She is excited to support you and your partner as you navigate pregnancy, labor, and delivery. She also teaches the comprehensive childbirth education class, A to Z with OMG, since 2022.
Her career path changed after the birth of her son in 2010. Her own doula had such a positive impact on her that she changed focus and immersed herself fully into the birth world. She has taken many different classes throughout her training and career to help you through labor. Her doula training includes Hypnobirthing classes, the Bradley Method series, a Spinning Babies workshop, and a TENS unit and Pressure Point class for pregnancy and labor.
Along with her doula bag of tricks, she will bring a calm energy to your birth and will empower you to make decisions that are best for you and your family. Her support will remain steadfast for you and your partner as you navigate the joyous and, sometimes, unpredictable journey that is labor and delivery. She will tailor her support to the needs of the laboring person because no two laboring people are the same. Her goals for your birth are that you felt supported and respected throughout your experience.

Bridget Lira
Meet Bridget! She is a trained Birth Doula and has completed the Bradley Method Birth classes as well as the Spinning Babies workshop. She uses the techniques she has learned to support families during pregnancy and labor. She has a strength in supporting families with goals to have an unmedicated or less medicated birth. She is also extremely passionate in supporting families after loss, traumatic births, and postpartum experiences. She encourages and provides support to inspire each birthing person to trust their intuitive ability to birth their baby. She believes and holds this as a deeply sacred space all while endlessly supporting the family during a time of transition and transformation.
Pregnancy and birth has always caught her interest, but when she was pregnant with her first daughter, she quickly realized she was filled with fear and anxiety about what birth and postpartum would look like. This set a fire in her to provide unwavering, unbiased, judgment-free support to each and every family.
Bridget has set a standard of genuine love & compassion for all the expectant mothers as she knows that there is not a one size fits all experience and caters to every individual’s array of needs. Her clients feel that she brings a calm and warm presence to the room, and say it feels like they have known her for years which creates a comfortable and trusted birth space, and embodies love and cultivates a nurturing environment for each family’s unique experience.
