Who am I?
Hello, I'm Ashanti, a devoted wife and proud mother of six wonderful children. Ever since I was around 8 years old, pregnancy and birth have fascinated me. Igniting a passion within me that has only grown stronger over the years.
​
My work is is guided by personal experience and western/modern day knowledge; but is rooted in spirituality.
I am Iyanifa Olorisha Anude Remo. My life and work follow the path of IFA and my birth work practices are very much a reflection of my connection primarily to Oshun and the ancestral mothers.
​
I am not just a Doula, Placenta Specialist/Instructor, and IBCLC. I am an Adaba Iya (Mother's gentle guardian). I am skilled to provide care in a space that is a meeting between Doula and Midwife. I am proud to honor my ancestors in answering the calling that is birth work.
Woman's Choice Perinatal Services
The core mission of Woman's Choice Perinatal Services (WCPS) is to provide comprehensive support to families throughout the entire journey of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. What sets WCPS apart is its strong foundation in African spiritual connections, practices, healing, and ancestral guidance.
​
A central focus of WCPS is to address and combat the racial disparities that disproportionately affect young Black families when it comes to pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum experience. By primarily serving this community, WCPS aims to make a positive impact and contribute to the well-being of our people.
​
WCPS firmly believes in the power of a supportive community, understanding that the traditional village concept is essential. If you find yourself lacking such a network, WCPS is dedicated to assisting you in building one.
