Originally from a multi-ethnical Eastern European background, she has also lived in France and currently resides in San Jose, CA, with her Moroccan husband and three children. Natural and instinctive childbirth has become her passion following her own personal natural births, one at the hospital and two in her home. She was amazed to learn that our bodies have been perfectly created to birth our babies, and that in most cases we do not need anybody to do it for us. While this knowledge gave her full confidence and trust in Allah during her own labors, she has also learnt that preparation is crucial and education is necessary in order to be able to make informed decisions when needed. Being able to serve as a doula means being allowed to enter in the sacred space of a birthing woman. For Livia, that is the space where two worlds meet and she is committed to approaching it with full honor and respect. For this purpose, she is very thankful that AMANI has become her home base for continuing education and support in this meaningful and rewarding field of birth.

Livia 's Message to You
Dear Expectant Mother,
All praises are due to Allah for your pregnancy and bismillah for your upcoming birth!
You being here and looking for a childbirth educator and/or doula shows that you are taking the means to prepare for the best childbirth experience possible.
Motherhood is more than just birthing our children, but having a positive birth experience is a very empowering first step into motherhood. It shapes you as a woman, physically, emotionally and even spiritually.
It will be a privilege for me to assist you on your birthing journey with the best of myself - my intention, my dedication, and my AMANI training, in shaa Allah.
