Let’s meet more of the amazing doulas with Thrive Together Doulas!

🌿 Next up: the Kansas City birth team!!

✨ Bethany () and I were connected recently by another doula. I knew immediately that she would be a perfect fit for the Thrive Together Doulas team!!

🌿 We are so blessed to have Bethany on the Kansas City birth team!! She has been passionate about this work for a long time!!

💕 I’ll let Bethany share from her heart:

“I started my doula journey with the birth of my sister’s first child where I was able to support and encourage her throughout her labor and I was immediately hooked! I am certified through Birth and Beyond KC and provide prenatal, birth, and postpartum care.

I chose to become a doula because I believe every woman deserves to be fully supported, seen, heard, and cared for in mind, body, and spirit. Every journey into motherhood is different, and my role is to offer guidance and presence you can trust.

Outside of work as a doula and nurse I love to play pickle ball, board games, and with my two kitties.

I am not only passionate about traveling, but learning about other cultures as well. I have had the privilege of traveling to Uganda and Argentina, and am hoping to add more countries to that list in the future. Being a doula is one of my steps to one day attending midwifery school.

I have had the privilege of attending several births with my doula mentor. I have done home and hospital births of both low and high intervention. I believe birth is an incredible miracle created by God and I would be so honored to be allowed to participate in that miracle with you.”

Let’s meet more of the amazing doulas with Thrive Together Doulas!

🌿 Next up: the Kansas City birth team!!

✨ Mikya - pronounced mah-kai-yah () was one of the first doula Kansas City Doulas I reached out to and she warmly responded. We met and I could tell our goals aligned - we want to help moms throughout pregnancy AND the postpartum time.

🌿 We are so blessed to have Mikya not only on the Kansas City birth team but also the Postpartum team! She and I have already been working with a new family together.

💕 I’ll let Mikya share from her heart:

“I chose to become a doula because I believe every woman deserves to be fully supported, seen, heard, and cared for in mind, body, and spirit. Every journey into motherhood is different, and my role is to offer guidance and presence you can trust.

As a trained birth and postpartum doula, I’m here to support your choices, not to direct them. My role is to provide grounded, compassionate presence, evidence-based information, and emotional support, so you feel confident, connected, and truly seen throughout your journey.

I’m here to walk alongside you with calm care and unwavering belief in your strength.

Outside of doula work, I love creating warm, welcoming spaces where people can gather, share stories, and build community. I’m all about meaningful conversations and a good card game.

I spend my quiet moments either reading, knitting, or baking bread. These hobbies help me recharge and stay grounded. I also love traveling - exploring new places is one of my favorite hobbies!”

Let’s meet more of the amazing doulas with Thrive Together Doulas!

🌿 Next up: the Kansas City birth team!!

✨ Brittany (). When Brittany started sharing online some of her journey in becoming a mom and doula - I knew I needed to connect with her!

🌿 We are so blessed to have Brittany on the Kansas City birth team, she has an interest in teaching and a passion for being creative.

💕 I’ll let Brittany share from her heart:

“My journey into birthwork began with my own experiences: multiple losses, a traumatic hospital birth, and a redemptive home birth with doula support. Each one shaped my heart for supporting others through the same.

I was called to be a doula to walk with women through both the pain and the beauty of pregnancy and birth, hold space for healing, and help them to feel empowered in their stories.

Trained as a birth and bereavement doula through Stillbirthday, I specialize in early pregnancy loss, healing after miscarriage or birth trauma, and supporting the unique journey of rainbow baby pregnancies.

Outside of birth work, I am an artist and children’s book author. I enjoy spending time with my family, doing DIY projects around our home, thrifting, and listening to podcasts.

God made a woman’s body to give birth. I believe every amazing aspect of pregnancy, labor, and birth is by God’s design and should be highly respected and honored.

I walk alongside families with faith-filled compassion, gentle support, and a deep commitment to emotional healing and informed decision-making.”

I just have to brag about my team of Topeka doulas!! They are AMAZING!!
(oh, and Kansas City - we will be very active in your city next!!)

Last week when I (Betsy) was recovering from a birth and also not feeling the best, Macee led the charge with teaching our first birth prep class in Topeka! She thoughtfully created the outline for the class and checked in with me - getting my feedback. She even had the idea of passing out folders for the students to keep the class notes in (we just failed to pass the folders out - you will get them this week!!)

THEN, all three Doulas: Victoria, Macee, & Ruthie showed up for the Sunflower Baby Shower on Sunday. This was something I had only heard about 3 days prior to the event and all 3 cleared their schedules to be there!! I wasn’t able to be there myself, but we prepared goody bags on Friday and talked through the details. Victoria brought the goody bags and other items for our table. It was DEFINTELY a success!!

**Our next birth class is TONIGHT and it’s not too late to sign up! Send us a DM

I’m excited for many more events in the future in which we can show you we are all so passionate and dedicated to supporting moms throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum!

NOTE: If anyone has ideas for events and would like to partner with us to put something on, or provide for the perinatal community - reach out to us at hello@thrivetogetherdoulas.com!!

🌿 Starting with the Topeka team!!

✨Macee () has been doing doula work for a few years and already has shared so much of her experience and knowledge with us!

🌿 We are so blessed to have Macee as a part of Thrive Together Doulas!

💕 Now Macee can share a little bit of how she supports her clients as a doula:

“I am a birth doula dedicated to supporting mothers through one of life’s most sacred and transformative journeys. My approach is rooted in calm presence, grounded support, and intuitive care.

Birth is not just a physical event, but it is also emotional, spiritual, and deeply personal. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you feel safe, informed, and empowered in your choices.

I bring a steady, nurturing energy into the birth space, helping you anchor into your own strength and intuition.

Whether you’re giving birth at home, in a hospital, or a birth center, I am here to hold space for a grounded and peaceful experience, one where you feel heard, respected, and fully supported.

Together, we’ll prepare not just for the moment of birth, but for a journey that honors your rhythm, your voice, and your vision.”

Let’s meet some of the amazing doulas with Thrive Together Doulas!

🌿 Starting with the Topeka team!!

✨Ruthie (.ruthie) joined us early on this summer. She may be new to doula work, but she certainly has the perfect giftings for it!

🌿 We are so excited to have Ruthie as a part of Thrive Together Doulas!

💕 Now Ruthie can share a bit of how she got started as a doula:

“I became a doula because I believe every mom deserves to feel supported, seen, and empowered during one of the most life-changing moments of her life.

Birth isn’t just about bringing a baby into the world, it’s about caring for the mom so she can step into motherhood feeling confident and loved.

I am in the process of getting fully certified through DONA. I have attended 4 births (Scheduled c-section, urgent c-section, Vaginal, and VBAC).

It’s my honor to walk alongside families, offering encouragement, knowledge, and a calm presence in the middle of it all.”

🌱 Victoria was the first doula to reach out, wanting to work on the team!

FUN FACT: Within the first two weeks of moving to Topeka, Betsy and Victoria attended a birth together!

🌿 We are so blessed to not only have Victoria on the Topeka team, but stepping up as the Lead Doula to help Betsy out.

💕 I’ll let Victoria share from her heart:

“I became a doula after the life changing experience of watching my sister deliver her second child a moment that revealed the beauty, strength, and vulnerability of birth.

For the past three years, I’ve been dedicated to walking alongside mothers during this sacred season, offering both birth and postpartum support.

Certified through the Academy of Certified Birth Educators, I combine practical knowledge with a calm, faith-rooted presence to create an atmosphere of safety, encouragement, and peace.
