As the proud mother of three terrific adults, and granma to two spectacular grandkids, I bring everything I've done before to my work as a birth doula. After owning and running a successful, award-winning, New York corporate communications company for over 35 years, I made a radical shift and dove into the healing arts. I became a Yoga Therapist (RYT-500) helping people with disabilities (MS, paralysis, stroke, veterans with PTSD, etc.), I taught pre-natal yoga and baby yoga classes; I'm a Certified Reflexologist, a Reiki II practitioner and I'm trained in Craniosacral Therapy.

My name is Margot Lowenstein Simmons and I was born to mother...much to the chagrin of my younger sister, and if I had known what a doula was when I was growing up in Washington, DC, my life would have looked a lot different. Today, I am working to redefine the scope of doula. I am a trained postpartum doula, a certified breastfeeding counselor and a Sleep Savvy Gentle Sleep Coach. I bring my own personal humor and joy for family to my work. My Masters in early childhood development, along with my own unique birth, postpartum and toddler-raising experiences help me support a wide variety of families as they tackle the often-unplanned for aftermath of bringing baby home and raising young kids. I provide truly nonjudgemental support and specialize in offering practical tips and tricks, coaching to ensure a happy, relaxed family unit, transitioning to and from work, as well as the special experience of having toddlers! Because - I think we could all use a little less judgement and little more doula.

I’m an expert in postnatal fitness. Pelvic pain, hip pain, wrist pain, tearing, prolapse, diastasis—women come to me with all of these injuries. You don’t come out of pregnancy and birth uninjured. Using my extensive knowledge of postpartum physical therapy and fitness, I will teach you how to heal your body from the inside out. After giving birth to my first daughter, I was in your shoes—frustrated with a body that didn’t feel like my own. You’d think that if anyone’s body would snap back into shape it would be a yoga teacher’s! And by many standards, I did bounce back: Three weeks after giving birth I was taking my favorite boutique fitness classes and wearing my pre-pregnancy clothes. Internally, it was a different story. I had injured wrists, achy hips, lower back pain, and a hollow feeling where my core used to be. With more than 20 years of yoga, Eastern medicine, and fitness knowledge under my belt, I knew as much as there was to know about healing and anatomy...but that knowledge wasn’t putting my body back together. It is a tragic public health failure that women are left alone, without accurate education or resources on how to heal our postnatal bodies. So I embarked on my own quest to fill the postnatal void for myself, and that led to my helping women everywhere. I met with a ton of pelvic health experts and physical therapists. I dove back into restorative yoga, and studied the links between the nervous system, relaxation, strength and stability. I shifted from hardcore workouts to balance-focused ones. While I love a sweaty workout, I needed to heal my postpartum body before getting back to that level of intensity. I pulled my meditation cushion out of the closet, deepening my mind-body connection and listening to my body’s feedback on the work I was doing. Not only was my body healing and strengthening, my mind was sharpening, becoming more focused and happier. By scheduling consistent time with myself and my body, I was not only achieving the recovery I yearned for, I was also developing a richer relationship between “me,” the woman, and “me,” the wife, mother, entrepreneur and world citizen. Finally, I started to thrive. In the midst of my recovery, I knew I wasn’t the only woman who was felt paralyzed and unable to heal herself. So I created something brand new: Revolution Motherhood is a fitness method that teaches women how to understand their postnatal injuries, and guides them in making a full recovery from pregnancy and childbirth—safely and lovingly. As new mothers, we are busier than we’ve ever been. Exercise is often the thing that drops off our never-ending to-do lists. Yet you need exercise—to heal, strengthen and understand yourself, and to figure out how to do this new thing called motherhood! You can no longer accept life in a dysfunctional body. You are starting a whole new relationship with yourself. Motherhood is the opportunity of your lifetime—physically, emotionally, spiritually. Everything has been realigned and needs rebuilding. Developing a healthy relationship to your new body—caring for it, healing it, tending to it—is the magic step that transcends the fatigue and fear. From there, you have the space to offer your unique gifts to your children, yourself, and the world. With Revolution Motherhood, I take everything I’ve learned while recovering from three pregnancies and share it with you. I make your “me time” meaningful by healing and strengthening your body, and by giving you a roadmap to your own mental well-being and happiness.

Born and raised in France, I left 15 years ago, with the wish of discovering and meeting new people, new cultures, different perceptions and thinking patterns. After living in 9 different countries and visiting all continents, I have decided to settle down and open my practice here in NYC. In 2017, I was invited at Harvard to talk about the power of the mind. In 2018, I received the 2018 New York Award for best hypnotherapy services in New York.

Hi....I'm MomTown. And I am here for you. I want to take care of you as you plan for your baby’s arrival, to educate you on what birth can be, be with you while you are having your baby, and be there for you when you bring your baby home (and for lots of time beyond). I'm also very invested in your mental well-being along the way. Because I know taking the time to have your needs met gives you strength to take care of your family. MomTown is for moms. MomTown is for dads. MomTown is for people who are curious about being parents. MomTown is for non-binary parents who don't go by mom or dad. MomTown is for gender fluid parents who go by both mom and/or dad (and every other name they choose to be called). MomTown is for people who identify as unicorns. MomTown is for people who believe the moon landing was a US government conspiracy (though I'll probably argue with you about that). Basically, MomTown is for everyone. I am a certified birth and postpartum doula, Certified Lactation Counselor and Childbirth Educator in training. I am also currently pursuing a Masters in Social Work, focusing on both perinatal mental health and family leave policy development. I volunteer for Postpartum Support International as a helpline operator.

I am a birth & postpartum doula, Reiki practitioner, and Shamanic healer. I also have experience in the arts, film, and photography.

As both a postpartum doula and lactation counselor, I provide warm and gentle in-home support for new families following birth. My priorities include encouraging rest and recovery for the birthing mother, promoting healthy baby feeding routines, and providing education and support to your family unit as a whole.

My psychotherapy approach is grounded in principles of mindfulness, humanism, and the healing power of the creative process. Since becoming a mother, I'm especially passionate about providing support for those in personal and professional care-taking roles.

I am a clinical psychologist with a special focus on women’s issues, particularly anxiety during pregnancy, the birth experience, motherhood, and work-family balance. I love working with pregnant women and new moms to help them navigate the many ups and downs of this incredibly powerful time of transition! In my work I have the privilege of supporting my clients in developing increased confidence in themselves, helping them to navigate this shift in identity, and working through difficult feelings - allowing for a deeper bond with their babies. During my training at various NYC hospitals, universities and clinics, I've had the wonderful opportunity to work with clients of varying ethnicities, religions and sexual orientations, providing me great familiarity and comfort in treating people from all backgrounds.
