Hi, name is Nahid. I am a Baltimore-based death doula and social worker dedicated to supporting individuals and families through the end-of-life journey with compassion, clarity, dignity, and care. I provide emotional and practical support during life’s final transitions, helping people feel informed, grounded, and less alone.

My work is rooted in the belief that death deserves honesty, care, and respect. I support people in exploring their wishes, values, and care preferences, while offering steady presence and guidance throughout the end-of-life journey and dying process. Whether through advance care planning, legacy work, or education, my role is to create a space where death is approached with intention rather than fear.

I bring over a decade of experience in end-of-life care in Maryland and currently work in hospice as a licensed clinical social worker in the home-care setting. I am also trained as a death doula through the Going with Grace End of Life Training Program.

Doula Noire centers Black people and communities of color, while honoring the cultural, spiritual, and personal traditions of each individual and family. Although this work is committed to serving Black people and communities of color, Doula Noire is welcoming to all who seek compassionate end-of-life doula support. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live fully until the very last day and to die with comfort and care that is aligned with their values, culture, and wishes.

If this support feels right for you or someone you love, please feel free to reach and and let’s connect to see how best to support you.
