Hi moms! My name is Samantha, I’m a mom of 4, lactation enthusiast, pet lover, Army veteran and #DONA certified doula! I’m excited to be walking in my new found purpose of supporting moms through their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum! I believe every woman deserves to feel seen, heard, & held during childbirth. I show up to remind you that your voice matters, your body knows what to do, and you do not have to walk this journey alone. I, myself, have had 4 different types of births- emergency c-section, scheduled c-section, vaginal birth after 2 c-sections w/epidural, & an unmedicated water birth in the comfort of my own home. However you plan to bring your little one earth side, I stand beside you every step of the way.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Samantha. From the very beginning, she was supportive, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answer every question with patience, and make sure I felt prepared for each stage of the journey. During labor, her calm presence made such a difference. She advocated for me when I needed it, reminded me of my birth preferences, and offered comfort and encouragement that kept me grounded. Whether it was suggesting position changes, guiding my breathing, or simply holding my hand, she knew exactly what I needed in the moment. Beyond the birth, she continued to check in and provide resources that helped me transition smoothly into postpartum life. Her compassion, professionalism, and dedication truly exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a doula who will not only support you but also empower you, I wholeheartedly recommend Samantha. She made my experience more positive, peaceful, and memorable than I ever could have imagined.

I’m Riley, the doula behind Root and Vine. This work is my calling — rooted in a deep respect for the strength and sacrifice of women, the transformation of birth, and the sacredness of new life. I’m a birth and postpartum doula, trained through DONA, and support families across the DFW metroplex with compassion, evidence-based knowledge, calm presence, and a deep trust in the process of labor. I am an English teacher of seven years and my husband and I have one son. My path to birth doula work began with my own birth experience; having a doula during my pregnancy was so helpful to me and made me feel much more knowledgeable and in control of my birth. Unfortunately, the birth of my son did not go as planned for many reasons: my doula could not attend my birth, I preeclampsia complications, and my son was in a breech position. Birth is a transformation, but it can also come with trauma. My experience compelled me to become a doula to hopefully help other women have better birth experiences than I did. I’m also passionate about postpartum care; in the time after giving birth, I felt vulnerable and, although I had endured a major physical and emotional event, I was not often the focus or concern. Even amidst so much joy and love for my son, people quickly begin asking about the baby and forget to ask about the new parent. I want to be the doula that I wish I could have had! The role of postpartum doula is to mother the mother, to educate and encourage new parents, and ensure the new family is thriving together. My love of caregiving and my passion of supporting other mothers is combined in the role of postpartum doula.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Valerie throughout my pregnancy, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was attentive, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and provide both emotional and physical support every step of the way. Her calm presence and reassuring guidance helped me feel confident and prepared, even during the most overwhelming moments. What stood out the most was her ability to anticipate my needs before I even voiced them—whether it was offering comfort techniques, providing resources, or simply being a steady, encouraging presence. She made me feel truly supported, respected, and cared for during one of the most important times in my life. Thanks to Valerie, my pregnancy and birth experience were so much more positive and empowering. I’m deeply grateful for her dedication and would highly recommend her services to any expectant parent looking for compassionate, reliable, and skilled support.

With nearly a decade of experience serving women in the DFW area, BirthPointe stands as a premier women’s health and birth center. Our facility features three exquisitely designed birth suites, and our dedicated certified nurse midwives are here to provide compassionate care. Additionally, we offer monthly educational classes to support and empower women throughout their journey. Traci Santangelo MSN APRN CNM: Originally from Fort Worth, Texas, I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Texas Woman’s University and started my career working in a local Labor & Delivery Unit. I then married a Yankee (don’t hold it against me), and he moved me to Detroit, Michigan, then to Miami, Florida, and finally to Chicago, Illinois—all for his exciting career. It was at the University of Illinois at Chicago that I received my Master’s in Nursing with a Midwifery designation and developed a deep desire to move back to the Lone Star State. I was tired of being cold! During that time away, I had two children (who have my heart completely), worked in some incredible hospitals as a Labor Nurse, and really developed a desire to serve women. Birth has always been my passion. I love every part of it! From the first positive pregnancy test, to watching a mother hear her baby’s heartbeat for the first time, to hearing that same baby cry at birth—I find all of it exciting and am in constant awe of how perfectly we are made to carry and birth a baby. I am a complete geek when it comes to the physiology of human development and can’t help but talk about developmental milestones because they are fascinating. Why wouldn’t you want to know everything about your baby?! I never tire of it. And I never tire of a woman’s need to feel validated, heard, and respected. You deserve that—you are a woman, for goodness’ sake! It is my great pleasure to serve women such as yourself at this time in your life. I want to give you the very best care I can provide, and I would be honored for the opportunity. Theresa Stryk MSN, APRN, CNM: Theresa grew up in St. Louis, Missouri. She moved to Texas to pursue her Biology degree at the University of Dallas, where she also played volleyball. She received her BSN from Texas Woman’s University and worked in Labor & Delivery at Parkland before getting her Master’s in Nursing from Texas Tech University and becoming a CNM. She is married to her wonderful husband, Logan, and they have two daughters, Julie and Helen. Theresa has had the privilege of previously working in a NaProTechnology office, where she gained valuable insights into the remarkable benefits of Fertility Awareness-Based Methods (FABMs) for so many women. Through her experience, she has seen how these methods empower women to understand and manage their reproductive health. At BirthPointe, Theresa is dedicated to continuing her mission of educating others about FABMs, promoting awareness, and supporting women in making informed choices about their fertility.

Hi! My name is Shannon Sappington and I am the owner of Serving Hands Doula! I have been a doula since 2016, providing personalized support and care to my clients during their pregnancy, labor and birth! Before becoming a certified Labor Doula, I achieved a Masters degree in Counseling as well as a teaching certificate in elementary education. My educational background and experiences enhance my abilities as a labor doula. I have a nurturing and compassionate spirt and I believe that the best tools I bring into every birth are my heart, my hands and my voice. My goals are to equip you to be ready mentally, physically and emotionally, and to serve you during the journey of your pregnancy, labor and the birth of your baby. Besides being a doula, I love doing life with my husband, our four kids and three dogs! We are an adoptive family - so my husband and I have 3 biological children and 1 through adoption. We love Jesus, laughing, cracking jokes, eating Chinese food, going on trips and also relaxing at home watching a movie. I try to not take life for granted and enjoy the big and the small moments of everyday life. God is my life breath and He is woven all throughout my story.

Shannon is amazing!!!! We loved having her as our doula. She helped both my husband and I through my pregnancy and my very long and hard labor. I set out to have a home birth, but ended up transferring to the hospital and she was there every step of the way. She helped me with my very hard back labor and was just the support my husband and I needed. We will definitely be hiring her again with our next baby!!
