Lavonne was truly a blessing throughout one of the most important seasons of my life. From our very first meeting, she was professional, warm, and carried such a peaceful light about her that I instantly knew she was meant to be my doula. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, but she is also genuine, loving, and deeply caring. She provided me and my husband with so many resources, honest guidance, and valuable information that helped us feel prepared and confident during my first pregnancy. She always kept it real, answered every question with patience, and made the entire journey feel personal instead of transactional. Although my birth plan changed unexpectedly and I had to have an emergency C-section instead of delivering at the birthing center, Lavonne still showed up for me in every way. She drove over an hour to the hospital to be there by my side, supported me emotionally, made sure my baby had everything she needed, helped with latching, and continued checking on us afterward. That level of care is rare. Lavonne does this from the heart, and it shows. She treats her clients like family and truly goes above and beyond. I am so thankful for her and honored to have had her as part of this experience. If you are considering hiring a doula, do not hesitate—Lavonne is amazing. Highly recommend.

Bekah was my Prenatal/Birthing Class Instructor. She also was my doula throughout my 2 day labor and outstanding support throughout my VBAC. Bekah's ability to educate and talk you through decision making is top notch. She is a great communicator, and available when she says she will be. Bekah has a true gift for helping women empower themselves through childbirth. I firmly believe I would not have had the birth experience I wanted without her by my side. My husband, Bradley, agrees. I hope to be able to have her support throughout the future! Proud to call her my doula and my friend.

I'm Saleemah and I am a mother of 2, a boy and girl. Working under my mother who was a midwife, and having my own children influenced me to take the journey into becoming a Birth Doula and Lactation consultant. Helping mothers through their pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding journey is my passion.

I am extremely grateful to have had such an amazing doula by my side as I prepared for the birth of my first child. As a first-time mother, there were so many emotions, questions, and uncertainties that came with preparing for this experience. From the very beginning, she made me and my family feel comfortable, heard, and supported. One of the things that stood out to me most was how seriously she took her craft. She was knowledgeable, attentive, patient, and intentional in the way she supported us. She took the time to explain things, answer our questions, listen to our concerns, and make sure we felt prepared rather than overwhelmed. She also did an amazing job creating comfort not only for me, but for my partner as well. She understood that having a baby is a major transition for everyone involved and made sure my loved ones also felt included, informed, and comfortable. Her ability to create a peaceful and supportive environment made such a difference in our experience. What I appreciated most was that her care did not stop after I had my baby. She made a genuine effort to check on me postpartum and see how I was adjusting physically and emotionally. Having someone remind me that I was supported and that my transition into motherhood mattered was incredibly meaningful. I would highly recommend her to any expecting mother, especially a first-time mom who may be looking for someone who will provide genuine support and create a comfortable, positive experience for both her and her family. I am so thankful that she was part of such an important chapter in our lives, and I will always appreciate the care she gave us.
