Meet the Founder

Hi, I'm Shanelle.

I'm Shanelle Harris-Burke, a mother, entrepreneur, and the Founder & CEO of Aya Wellness Collective.

My own postpartum experience opened my eyes to just how much a mother needs after giving birth. Beyond medical care, we need rest, nourishment, emotional support, and sometimes simply someone making sure we're being cared for, too.

It made me wonder: What if postpartum recovery was an experience where mothers were truly nurtured, rather than left to navigate everything on their own?

That question became the foundation of Aya Wellness Collective.

I envisioned a different kind of postpartum experience—one that blends compassionate, holistic care with the comfort of luxury. A space where mothers can slow down, prioritize their recovery, and feel supported without having to coordinate every detail themselves.

While Aya is designed to serve all mothers, I'm especially passionate about addressing the gaps and disparities in postpartum care that Black mothers continue to experience.

At its heart, Aya is about restoring something every mother deserves: the opportunity to feel seen, supported, and cared for during one of life's most transformative seasons.

Because rest shouldn't be a privilege. And mothers deserve to be cared for, too.
