Hi, my name is Annelise Little and I'm a Birth Doula, Maternity, Birth, and Newborn Photographer and Reiki Pricticioner in Pickens, SC. I grew up sitting in on La Leche League meetings and Baby Cafes with my mother, learning about birth, babies, and the strength and wonder of bringing new life into the world. I'm now honored to devote my time and passion to supporting families through the amazing experience of birth. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, music, hiking, my cats, and game nights with my friends and family.

Every moment, every trial, every prayer I’ve ever prayed, has led me to the honor of holding space for the most beautiful, vulnerable and powerful force on the planet…you; a woman fearfully and wonderfully made, bringing life into this world. As a wife, mom of 4, and total birth nerd, my deepest desire is to nurture and embrace you in all the ways I didn’t know I needed before enduring two traumatic c-sections. I went on to receive that nurturing embrace after fighting to have not one, but two incredible, redemptive home births. I use my education and personal experiences - both good and bad - to tailor the support I give you, with empathy, joy, and gratitude, while striving to have a true servant’s heart. I believe in you, and your birth experience matters deeply to me. Let’s do this!

Hi! My name is Kelly, and I am a birth and postpartum doula in Western North Carolina. I primarily work in the Asheville and surrounding areas. I have been in birth work in this community for almost 20 years in one capacity or another, including being the office manager and light clinical support at WNC Birth Center until shortly before it closed in 2021. While most of my experience is with midwives and midwifery clients, I support families wherever they feel most comfortable, whether that's at home, the hospital, or a freestanding birth center. I launched my own practice in 2025 after finally completing an official birth doula training program that year, and I added a postpartum doula training certificate in early 2026. My favorite part of supporting birth is witnessing the transformation to new parenthood, and it doesn't matter if it's the first time or the fifth. Each time we birth a baby, we change a little (or a lot!). Walking that sacred path with someone is an honor, and I have yet to attend a birth where I didn't leave feeling in awe. I have birthed three children of my own, and each one was a uniquely powerful experience. While I do bring those experiences to the birth room, I do not let them dominate. Instead, I let them guide me to support in ways I wish I had been supported and let them teach me the art of surrender. I am also a postpartum doula, and I am very passionate about supporting parents in those early days, weeks, and months after birth. There is so much new about adding a member to the family, and we were never meant to do this alone. I greatly enjoy mothering the mother and helping other family members adjust to a new routine. I am available for short stretches of time or overnight care. When I am not working in the birth community, I am likely to be snuggling a cat or a dog, reading a psychological thriller, watching a true crime show, or knitting.

With nearly 20 years of experience supporting new and growing families, I bring to my clients a sense of grounded calm, evidence-based education, and the confidence that together, we can navigate anything that may come up in the unpredictable journey of birth! I have a deep understanding of physiologic birth and ways to support that, as well as a healthy respect for medical interventions when needed. I connect quickly and personally with my clients, support families of all constellations, and am super passionate about providing non-judgemental and trauma-informed support.

Katie Mayeux is a skilled midwifery apprentice, birth and postpartum doula, folk herbalist, and internationally recognized yoga teacher with nearly two decades of experience in women’s wellness work. She began her midwifery studies in a small village in Guatemala, apprenticing with a traditional midwife and Mayan Ajq’ij (spiritual elder). It was here that she began to see birth as a rite of passage, a spiritual initiation and a healing pathway for a lineage to purify and rewrite the script. She subsequently graduated from the School of the Sacred Wild’s yearlong herbalism apprenticeship and has more recently gained clinical midwifery experience as an advanced student through the Maternidad La Luz Midwifery Immersion Program, during which she worked at a high-volume birth center on the US/Mexico border. Katie spent fifteen years as a yoga teacher, which gave her deep insight into the body, breath, and the power of movement. She now uses that training to support pregnant families, helping them find comfort, strength, and alignment throughout the childbearing year. She teaches a prenatal yoga class in El Paso and is currently completing her certification as a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner. She has attended over 100 births and currently resides in WNC.

I’ve worked with growing families, adolescent parents, and children for over 10 years in various capacities including childcare, social work, parent education, and doula work.

My goal is to serve and create a safe space for all family structures, including those in LGBTQIA2s+ communities.

Hi my name is Maryann Linley. I love God, children, animals, and the outdoors. I have heart to serve others.

Which, is what has led me to becoming a certified doula through DONA International, to help serve mom's and dad's.

I’m a 28-year-old African American birth doula,Proud HBCU alumna, and birth worker since 2024. I’m currently continuing my education with the goal of becoming a Certified Nurse-Midwife. I became a doula because I believe mothers deserve to feel seen, heard, informed, and supported during one of the most vulnerable and transformative experiences of their lives. My goal is to support the birth YOU envision as closely as possible while providing compassionate emotional, physical, and informational support throughout your journey. Every baby is a precious jewel, and I would be honored to help you bring your precious jewel into the world. 💎

I'm Ava; a very passionate birth and postpartum doula devoted to supporting women who desire a calm, instinctive, and physiological birth experience. My love for birth began early in life when I witnessed my own mother bring two of my younger brothers into the world through 2 peaceful homebirths. Watching the strength, intuition, and beauty of those moments deeply shaped my belief that birth is not something to fear, but something to trust. My philosophy centers on honoring the body's natural design for birth- not the societally pushed or man-created model of birth that often leads women to doubt their own instinct. I believe that birth "works" best when it is protected, undisturbed, and guided by a mother's intuition. When women are supported with evidence-based information, true informed consent, and a peaceful environment, their bodies are capable of incredible things. my approach prioritizes physiologic birth, instinctive movement, and protecting the natural hormone flow that supports labor, bonding, and postpartum recovery. I especially love supporting families who are drawn to physiological birth, low- intervention options, and creating a birth environment that feels peaceful and intentional. Whether you're planning a homebirth or simply hoping for a more natural and supported experience, I am here to walk alongside you with steady support, evidence-based information, and wholehearted encouragement.

Hi, I’m Payton! I’m a mother of five and a traditional midwife with a deep appreciation for physiological birth. My own experiences with motherhood have shaped the way I approach birth work and strengthened my belief that women deserve care that honors both their instincts and their individuality. I believe birth is a normal process that deserves patience, trust, and respect. My approach centers on building genuine relationships with the families I serve, providing thoughtful and individualized care, and protecting each woman’s right to make informed decisions about her own experience. I recognize the importance of holding space without taking ownership of someone else’s birth. I’m based in Inman, South Carolina, serving families throughout the surrounding areas of South Carolina and Western North Carolina.

I was born and raised in Asheville, NC and am so proud to call this town my home. I have always had a passion for science and a specific fascination with the human body and its capabilities. In 2013, I graduated from AB-Tech with an associate's degree in Medical Laboratory Technology and in 2019, I graduated from Winston-Salem State University with a bachelor's degree in Clinical Laboratory Science. Having a doula with my third birth made such a difference in my experience that I wanted to shout it from the rooftops. I wanted to share my birth story with everyone I came into contact with and when I realized I could be that difference in other people's stories, I couldn't find doula training fast enough! In September of 2023 I became certified through ProDoula as a birth, postpartum and infant care doula with more to come! I am so excited to bring my support services to my community and create lasting relationships in the process.
