Hello! I am Dwan Lawrence, CCWH, a passionate and experienced holistic doula dedicated to supporting families on their unique journey through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a Certified Community Health Worker, Newborn Care Specialist, Certified Home Health Aide, Master Herbalist, and Certified Prenatal Yoga Teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge and diverse skills to your personalized doula care.

Choosing a doula is about finding someone you feel safe with, supported by, and truly listened to. I believe every family deserves to feel respected, informed, and cared for during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, steady presence so parents can focus on welcoming their baby with confidence. I am a DONA Certified birth and postpartum doula, a Lactation Specialist, and VBAC certified. I also have training in techniques such as Spinning Babies, the Miles Circuit, and a variety of labor positions and comfort measures that can help support progress and reduce discomfort during labor. My role during birth is to help create a calm environment, offer practical comfort techniques, and support both the birthing person and their partner so they feel informed and empowered throughout the experience. After birth, my focus shifts to helping families rest, recover, and adjust to life with their new baby. Postpartum support can include newborn care guidance, feeding support, emotional encouragement, and helping parents find their rhythm during those early weeks. Every family is different, and I meet people where they are and support them in the ways that feel most helpful to them. I proudly accept Medicaid as well as private pay so that more families can access doula support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Supporting families during this time is truly meaningful work to me, and I feel honored to be invited into such an important moment in people’s lives. When I am not working with families, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling, and visiting the beach where I love collecting rocks along the shore.

I am a birth and postpartum doula located in the Metro Detroit with a background in public relations. I have over a year of experience with a vaginal birth rate over 80%. I am passionate about birth work as a result of my own experiences with 2 preventable c-sections and a vaginal birth after cesarean (attended by a doula). In addition this work is dear to my hear having witnessed the impact of the advocacy, support and assistance doulas provide especially in the lives of women of color.

Hello! My name is Marcela and from a young age I’ve felt a calling to help those who cannot speak for themselves, this is why I initially became a Veterinarian Technician. After enjoying that field for many years I wanted to specialize in OB/GYN sonography. Plans were put on hold as I welcomed my blessing. During my pregnancy I took all sorts of classes to prepare for birth, but, when it came to the hospital, things didn’t go as planned and I was stripped from my birth rights ! I never want another mother to feel the way I felt or be treated the way I was. Every woman deserves to feel empowered, supported and loved throughout their pregnancy, labor and delivery, postpartum and lactation journey. My passion for doula work only grew as I learned the statistics with minority women and I am ready to be a part of that change! I want to be a part of the statistic that decreases birth mortality.

Hi, my name is Carolina, and I’ve been a doula for almost 3 years. I love supporting moms, couples, and families who need to be educated about the birth world in the USA. I have 2 Children, one is 20, and the other one is almost 16. My greatest gift has been a mom for them. I love to connect birthing families with resources, educate them and get them ready to have a calm and beautiful experience in the birth of their children. As a mom, I went through a lot myself, felt so lonely in the process and I don’t want anyone to feel the same I felt. We speak Spanish and English, and hope to hire more doulas who speak other languages soon.

My name is Taryn Morris. I'm a certified birth and postpartum doula. I am from Tampa, Florida and relocated to Georgia in 2019. I felt lead to change my career path during the pandemic and I have truly found my niche in supporting expecting families. As a kid I was always fascinated by the show on TLC called, 'A Baby Story' . I was surley grossed out but yet in awe of the strength those mothers had! So becoming a birth worker was a full circle moment for me. I'm elated to be in such a sacred and trusting space to advocate, educate, provide emotional and physical support so that expecting mothers can have their baby with confidance. As a mother myself I understand the importance of needing additional support during such a vulnerable time. I enjoy making candles, breast-milk soap bars, spending time with my family, traveling, coffee shop runs, and lastly all things relating to self-care because I owe that to myself to show up and show out for my clients.
