You’ve heard the word doula, but what do we actually do?

A birth doula is your steady presence from the first contraction to the first feeding—someone who knows how to support your mind, body, and emotions through the wild ride of birth. A guide, if you will, to make the entire process easier and less stressful.

Here’s what that looks like in real life:
✨ Emotional support when you doubt yourself
✋ Physical comfort through touch, position changes, and breathwork
📚 Information to help you make confident choices
💛 Partner support — helping them help you

We don’t replace your medical team or your partner — we complete the circle of care.

Postpartum doulas aren’t clinicians—and that’s the point. Our role is education, observation, and connection to care, not screening or diagnosis. Families tell us that simple, steady support—plus clear referral pathways—helps them feel safer and more prepared in the fourth trimester.

This aligns with current guidance summarized by the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health (2025): doulas can strengthen maternal mental health by educating families, noticing early signs, and making timely referrals within a defined scope (with screening/diagnosis handled by clinicians).

💛 Want a postpartum plan that includes evidence-informed support and easy referrals if needed? We’ve got you.

Our pumps are donated and free of charge. All you need to do is purchase a pump kit from us or on your own.

This family 😍. Thank you for inviting me to be part of your birth!

Repost ❤️

“God has been so good to our family. We are so grateful for our 4 beautiful babies and can’t wait to add one more soon!

We are also so thankful for our beautiful midwife - Joanna - for her faith and for her patience during each appointment while Mayzie asks all the questions and goes through all of her things
It’s amazing to be able to include the kids in this pregnancy journey and they can’t wait to meet their new sibling!
Best Christmas season ever!”
