About Me
Hello! My name is Frankie Williams (they/them), I am a Queer full-spectrum doula, childcare provider, herbalist, and artist based in Northampton, MA. I am passionate about serving families, children, and birthing people with compassion, gentleness, curiosity, and individualized care. I enjoy working with people with diverse backgrounds, identities, experiences, perspectives, and needs. I strive for my work as a doula and care worker to be reproductive justice and liberation centered, trauma informed, gender/sexuality inclusive & affirming, non-monogamy/polyamory affirming, inclusive & affirming of and accessible to all bodies and all forms of family.
I am a certified Full Spectrum Birth and Postpartum Doula, having recently completed my education with Cornerstone Doula Trainings, and I am a member of the Pioneer Valley Doula Collaborative, the Green River Doula Network, and Queer Doula Network. It is an honor and a joy for me to be supporting people in the intimate portals of birth, postpartum, and early childhood.
I have over a decade of childcare experience with children from newborns babies all the way through 5 year olds, primarily through nannying, outdoor education, and preschool centers. I am infant, toddler, and preschool teacher certified by the EEC.
When I’m not working, I like to live slowly and spend time immersing myself in nature, connecting with spirit, making plant medicine, making art, cooking for my loved ones, and living with ritual.
