Marie Dominique Taylor
Doula Naturopath specializing in perinatal care
My approach
I’m Marie Dominique, a doula and naturopath specializing in perinatal care, trained at the Académie périnatale in Montreal and founder of Mama Cocon.
My decision to become a doula didn’t happen by chance. It grew out of my experience with miscarriage, a moment when I realized just how much every woman deserves to feel supported, heard, and cared for through whatever she may be going through.
Motherhood has always held a special place in my heart. Today, I want to be that calm, reassuring presence by your side — someone who is there for you, without judgment, at your own pace.
Whether you’re preparing for birth, looking for support on the big day, or seeking guidance during your first weeks with your baby, I tailor my support to your individual needs.
Today, I feel privileged to accompany families through one of the most meaningful and vulnerable times of their lives.
I look forward to meeting you!
