Porshai Z. Peters

Master of Education, Postpartum Doula, Certified Lactation Counselor

I was born and raised in Boston, MA. I take a special pride in serving the people in my city.

My journey began in education. As a third grade teacher in the Boston Public Schools, I had the pleasure of watching young minds and their families grow. I witnessed how the challenges of navigating the postpartum period don’t stop with the birthing person. The entire community is impacted.

I believe it is my mission to join your community and support you through the postpartum period. You and your community deserve to thrive.

I take special interest in supporting families living in Boston proper, families of color, first time moms, first generation nursers, and families with school aged children.

When I am not supporting families you’ll find me spending time with my boys (ages 3 and 1), reading sci-fi/fantasy novels, watching comedy shows, and riding my bike.
