Ashley Rose Salvitti
Full Spectrum Doula (Birth, Postpartum, PAL & Bereavement)
Coach & Perinatal Advocate
Doula Educator

Hi, I’m Ashley Rose! I’m a Pregnancy After Loss and Loss Support Coach, Educator, Perinatal Loss Advocate, and Doula Educator, as well as the founder of The Pudding Club and Doula Synergy.
My passion for this work is both personal and professional. My world changed forever when I learned that my daughter Lena no longer had a heartbeat at 29 weeks. I was incredibly grateful for the compassionate support I received in the hospital, but the days and months that followed brought grief, anxiety, and uncertainty. When I became pregnant again shortly after, I experienced a lack of connection with my baby, overcome with dear and we ended up experiencing another devastating loss through miscarriage.
Eventually, I became pregnant with my son—and I decided this pregnancy would be different. I knew how deeply I wanted to experience hope, connection, and joy, but I also knew what it was like to have fear and grief follow me into another pregnancy. Learning how to hold both—to honor what I had experienced without allowing fear to take over what I was experiencing now—became an important part of my own journey. Those experiences ultimately shaped the work I do today.
Supporting Life After Loss
Grief doesn't follow a timeline, and navigating life after pregnancy or infant loss can feel incredibly isolating. Through 1:1 Loss Support Coaching, I provide a compassionate space for parents to talk openly about what they're experiencing, process emotions, identify what they need, and find meaningful ways to move forward while continuing to honor their baby and their experience.Whether a loss is recent or happened years ago, my goal isn't to help someone “move on,” but to support them as they learn how to carry their grief while finding their way forward.
Supporting Pregnancy After Loss
I created The Pudding Club to give parents navigating pregnancy after loss the support I believe everyone deserves: a place to learn, connect, ask questions, navigate fear, feel empowered, and intentionally make space for hope and joy.
Through pregnancy after loss education, community, practical tools, coaching, and ongoing connection, I help parents feel less alone and more supported throughout their pregnancy. I don't believe pregnancy after loss means you have to choose between grief and joy, fear and hope, or remembering the baby you lost and connecting with the baby you're carrying. There can be space for all of it.
Educating + Connecting Doulas
My work also extends to the professionals walking alongside families. As a Doula Educator and founder of Doula Synergy, I’m passionate about helping doulas feel knowledgeable, confident, and prepared to support the unique needs of families navigating pregnancy and parenting after loss. Through education, training, resources, and connection, my goal is to strengthen the circle of support surrounding families—because no one should have to navigate this journey alone.
And, Most Importantly, I'm a Mom
I’m a mom to Jadyn and Westyn and a loss mom to Lena and Katelyn. Motherhood has been the most joyful, meaningful, challenging, and transformative part of my life.My own path has included complicated pregnancies, unexpected birth experiences, loss, pregnancy after loss, postpartum, and parenting after loss. Those experiences don't make my journey the same as anyone else's, but they deeply influence the compassion and perspective I bring to this work.
Life and parenthood rarely follow the path we expect. Having the right education, tools, community, and people beside you can make all the difference. Whether you're navigating life after loss, pregnancy after loss, or supporting families through these experiences, you don't have to navigate it alone.
