I recently had the privilege of experiencing the exceptional services provided by Blissful Births, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. As an Afro-Indigenous Birth Keeper, Melissa Phillipe brings a unique blend of traditional wisdom and modern expertise to her practice, creating a holistic and supportive environment for mothers and families. Melissa's compassionate and personalised approach was evident in every interaction, from prenatal care to postpartum support. Her extensive knowledge as a maternal educator and breastfeeding consultant was invaluable, providing me with the information and confidence I needed to guide other families. The doula training and mentorship I received were thorough and empowering, equipping me with the skills necessary to support other mothers effectively. One of the standout aspects of Blissful Births is Melissa's dedication to creating a nurturing and spiritual atmosphere. Her holistic methods, including herbal and natural remedies, resonated deeply with my desire for an organic and mindful birthing experience. The emphasis on mental health education also ensured that my emotional well-being was prioritised, contributing to a positive and balanced overall experience. Melissa's passion for her work and genuine care for her clients shine through in every aspect of Blissful Births. If you seek a knowledgeable, supportive, and holistic birth professional, I wholeheartedly recommend Blissful Births. My experience was nothing short of transformative, and I am grateful for the profound impact Melissa and her team had on my journey into motherhood.

We're Rabsaris and Magedda — a mother-daughter birth and postpartum doula team based in Alpharetta, serving the Atlanta metro. I've supported 200+ births across hospitals, birth centers and homes. Unmedicated, VBAC, induction, epidural, planned or unplanned C-section — every path, every family, every kind of birth. Childbirth education and Body Ready Method® preparation are built into every package because we cut no corners. This is comprehensive, all-inclusive doula care that is deeply personal and tailored entirely to you — from the person who will actually be in the room holding your hand through the hardest and most powerful moments of your life. Magedda is the mom you owe nothing to. That level of love, warmth and care — without the opinions, without the agenda. She handles postpartum — daytime and overnight newborn care, nourishing support, and the kind of calm that makes the whole house exhale so you can finally rest and recover. We don't show up with a checklist or an ideal version of how this should go. We show up ready to meet you exactly where you are. LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed, sliding scale available for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ families. Many clients successfully use HSA/FSA funds and workplace family benefits like Carrot to cover doula services.

My whole family is obsessed with Rabsaris. We had the pleasure of having her as our doula a couple years ago for the home birth of my second born, and she was so amazing every step of the way. She is warm, knowledgeable, and hilarious. She’s not afraid to give you the truth, and she’s very straightforward, which I appreciate. Also, her chocolate chip cookies are unmatched. She is a wonderful, honest, genuine person. She has such a passion for supporting pregnant people and their families and it shows in how intentional she is about everything she does. Every prenatal felt like a full childbirth education course. I learned so much during her visits. I still use the calming techniques she taught my husband and me for everyday life with a toddler! At my actual birth, I felt like my sister was taking care of me. I felt so loved and supported. It was like she was reading my mind every step of the way. I can’t even really describe it, but I can’t imagine my birth without her. It was so beautiful to have her there for me, my husband, and my oldest kiddo (who, again, is OBSESSED with her). I could go on, but to keep it short: Rabsaris’ services were worth every single penny and then some. I cannot recommend her enough. Do yourself a favor and hire her as your doula. You won’t regret it!

I believe birth gives us the opportunity to become who we're designed to be. I am honored to be a part of a woman's initiation into motherhood and womanhood. I look forward to connecting with you!

Cory Atkins became my Doula during my sixth month of pregnancy. Before connecting with her, I was not going to use the service for my homebirth as I was not sold on the benefit after meeting with doulas in the Atlanta area and coming up unsuccessful due to feeling like a number for materialistic gain. After connecting and consulting with Cory, she completely changed that for me. I truly felt like my spirit was waiting for her. She is extremely intuitive, passionate about connecting with the clients she takes on and exudes a natural maternal power through knowledge and touch that blew me away. Her energy is very calming and welcoming, just like an old friend. After our initial consultation, she jumped right in and missed not one beat. I was able to open up to her easily and dig through layers of the emotional aspects of pregnancy that I was silently dealing with and go through my thoughts around having my first child naturally at home with all that is happening in the world . Cory was the complete package for me. She is very aware of energy and will not hesitate to remain flexible by checking in when she feels the need, scheduling extra sessions or even going virtual. As I reached the end of this pregnancy, her services shifted to comfort management, where she also educated my partner, and prepared my mind for the labor process. She is truly a gem of extreme benefit to anything that she is a part of and I am so grateful for the value she adds to my journey daily. Passion Burcy, First time mom

Nikki is amazing! She trained under me for twelve weeks in The Bradley Method and I assisted her during her first natural birth. Since then, Nikki has been extremely passionate in becoming the very best Doula she can be. We started Your Birth Helper Ga and Nikki serves the majority of our Atlanta and surrounding areas. Our focus is low intervention/ natural birth, but we support all families no matter how baby exits the womb. Nikki is also a tremendously effective childbirth educator and knows how to properly train her clients to meet their goals. As a doula, she works tirelessly often without sleep or breaks to help each couple overcome hurdles, etc. she continues to be my lead #1 Atlanta / Gwin area Doula but also serves clients within 75-100 mile radius. As postpartum doula she does her very best to support mom and baby, as well. Hands down Nikki is one of the best! She will invest in your birth like no other! We help couples have happier “BIRTH” days! Choose Nikki and she can do the same for YOU!
