Welcome to Oxytocin World!
My name is Liza Hameza (Schaefer).
I’m a mother of 4, doula, educator, and podcaster who’s spent 15 years studying birth in the fields.
What began as a personal story has grown into a lifelong calling. Since then, I’ve supported over 500 births in different birthing settings, guided hundreds of parents through childbirth preparation and the first tender months with their newborns.Alongside modern doula practices, I weave in the wisdom of postpartum traditions I’ve learned in different countries - Belarus, Ukraine, Germany and Cyprus - rituals that honor a mother’s strength and nurture recovery.In addition to my one-on-one work with families, I’m passionate about teaching and mentoring doulas. I lead specialized trainings, and have been invited to speak at international conferences on birth and parenthood.I have also created Oxytocin World, a podcast that brings together midwives, anthropologists, psychologists, researchers, and doulas to share knowledge about birth, parenting, and relationships.I believe birth is more than a medical event - it’s a profound initiation for families, one that deserves care, respect, and continuity. My role is to walk beside you in that journey: grounding, encouraging, and offering both practical tools and emotional support.Outside of doula work, I feel most alive when cooking, practicing yoga, running, hiking in the mountains, or just being with my family. These everyday joys keep me grounded and remind me what truly matters.

Birth is not just a medical event. It's a celebration and a story of transformation.- Liza Hameza
