A doula provides additional support through prenatal, birth and postpartum. 


Please share a story of one of your most memorable experiences as a doula. 


I was supporting a client who wanted to have a Vagional Birth After C-Section (VBAC) for her second pregnancy. She was supported by her medical team, me, and her partner. We wanted this for her and we all worked hard to do what we could to support her. Watching her have her VBAC was powerful.

Being a part of the healing journey of Black mothers and families is the most powerful and meaningful part of being a doula.
