Meet Jessica Ann
I’m Jessica Ann, and I’ve spent the last 13 years supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I created The Happy Mama Place so parents wouldn’t have to piece together their care — everything is here in one place. I’m a Certified Birth Doula through DONA, a Licensed Massage Therapist trained in prenatal bodywork and myofascial release, a Certified Childbirth Educator, a Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher (RPYT), and certified in high risk birth support. I’m also currently studying Body Ready Method to deepen the way I help with fetal positioning and pelvic balance. I lead a birth and postpartum doula team, support new doulas through mentorship, and offer Medicaid approved care to make full circle birth support more accessible across NEPA. Whether you’re looking for prenatal massage, personalized birth classes, doula support, or placenta recovery care, this is a place where you’ll feel supported, prepared, and heard.Doula | Massage | Yoga | Medicaid Approved

Doula Support
Birth isn’t one size fits all, and your support shouldn’t be either. As your birth doula, I help you feel informed, prepared, and fully supported throughout pregnancy, labor, and beyond. From navigating conversations with your provider to staying grounded during each surge, I’ll be by your side with up-to-date evidence based education, hands-on comfort techniques, and a calm, intuitive presence. Whether you’re planning a hospital birth, home birth, or anything in between, my role is to make sure you feel safe, seen, and in control every step of the way.
Massage That Prepares, Supports, and Heals
Pregnancy changes everything. How your body moves, how you carry tension, and how your baby finds space.
Massage at The Happy Mama Place is never just about pampering. It’s hands-on support, tailored to your body, your baby, and your stage of the journey. Whether you’re easing hip pain, preparing for labor, or healing after birth, we use gentle release techniques that create space, restore balance, and help your body do what it was made to do.
This isn’t one-size-fits-all care. It’s real birth preparation, from head to pelvis to postpartum.

Supporting High Risk Births
Being labeled high risk can feel like everything changes — the plans you had, the way people talk to you, the space you thought you had to choose your path. But a label doesn’t take away your voice, your options, or the connection you have with your baby.
Whether you’re navigating gestational diabetes, IVF, preeclampsia, high BMI, advanced maternal age, or a previous cesarean, I’m here to remind you that you still deserve support that feels steady, respectful, and tailored to your body and your story.
With up-to-date evidence based guidance and care that helps you stay grounded, I’ll walk with you through the noise so you can ask better questions, make informed decisions, and birth from a place of power, not pressure.
Childbirth Education
Childbirth Education
There’s a difference between knowing what birth is and feeling ready for it.
HypnoBirthing helps you prepare your body and your mind so you can feel calm, focused, and connected through every part of labor.
We breathe. We slow down.
We untangle the fear that’s been passed down. And we give you real tools that actually work when things get intense.
This isn’t about doing birth perfectly. It’s about learning to trust yourself again.
Yoga For Birth Prep
This isn’t about getting flexible. It’s about getting ready. In each class, we move with intention. We create space, ease tension, and learn how to breathe through challenge. Yoga for Birth Prep blends functional movement, breath awareness, and Body Ready Method inspired positioning to support comfort in pregnancy and prepare your body for birth. We focus on the pelvis, the core, the ribs. The parts of your body that hold the story of birth. You don’t need to be a yogi. You just need a willingness to move and reconnect with your body in a new way.
Placenta Services
Your placenta nourished your baby. Now it can continue to support you.
Placenta encapsulation uses the nutrients and hormones your body already created to support your recovery in the early weeks after birth. Many families find it helps with energy, mood, and milk supply during the postpartum transition.
I prepare each placenta with care in a dedicated space, following strict food safety practices. I am certified through IPPA and bloodborne pathogen handling.
Pickup and drop off are always included for both home and hospital births throughout the region.
You can also choose custom placenta products like tinctures, nipple butter, or herbal salves — each one prepared with your healing in mind.
Postpartum Doula Support
There’s no script for what the early weeks should look like. You’re learning your baby, healing in ways no one prepared you for, and running on empty when what you really need is rest.
That’s where we come in.
Our postpartum doula team provides in-home support that helps you catch your breath, get sleep, and feel like yourself again. Whether it’s overnight care, feeding support, or just someone quietly holding the space while you rest, we’re there.
This care is personal. It’s steady. And it’s shaped by what matters most to you.
You don’t have to piece together your care. It’s all right here.
Whether you’re preparing for birth, easing into postpartum, or just need someone to help you sort through your options. I’m here. At The Happy Mama Place, you’ll find care that’s connected, calming, and designed to meet you exactly where you are.
