Ali Alfano
CLC, CD(DONA), CPHC
I am a mom of five and I live outside of Buffalo, NY with my husband and children. I’m a true crime fan, enjoy spending time outside, and love learning new things. I do my best to use non-toxic products in my home and on our bodies and I always look for a natural way to deal with health issues before turning to medicine. I believe balance is an important part of enjoying life. I have always had a roll as a care-taker, my siblings lovingly nick named me Ali Mama. When I was pregnant for the first time I wanted to learn everything there was to know about pregnancy and birth. It was important to me to be involved in my prenatal care and birth and make my own choices. After my fifth baby we knew our family was complete, but as she grew I realized how much I missed pregnancy and birth. I felt the difference having support for my births made, and I want to give that experience to others. I've given birth twice in hospitals, three times at home, and breastfed for over 13 years. Motherhood is always unique and challenging, yet rewarding. I use everything I've learned in my experiences and my professional trainings to support parents in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I hold certifications as a Birth Doula, Lactation Counselor, Perinatal Health Coach, and am also CPR Certified and BLS trained.
My goal is not to tell you what to do, but to guide you with love and respect so you are confident and equipped to make the best choices for your family. I would love to get to know you and learn how I can meet your needs.
