LGBTQ+ Affirming Doulas in Atlanta, GA

Hey! I'm Nandi, and supporting families during their birthing journeys is not just my profession, it’s my calling. My passion for birth work stems from witnessing the strength and resilience of birthing people and my desire to create spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and empowered. I’ve had the honor of working as a doula in various settings, from hospitals like Wellstar to community-based programs like Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies, home-births and birth centers. Each experience has deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, personalized care that honors each family’s unique story. Here’s what you can expect when we work together: - Connection: I take the time to get to know you and your family, so I can support your physical, emotional, and informational needs. - Advocacy: Whether it's navigating hospital policies or exploring comfort techniques, I ensure you feel confident and supported every step of the way. - Holistic Care: As a certified yoga instructor specializing in prenatal yoga, I incorporate movement and mindfulness to help you feel calm and prepared. One of my most meaningful experiences was supporting women in recovery through Motherhood Beyond Bars, where I saw how vital nurturing care and a nonjudgmental presence can be. That philosophy guides me every day. I am trained as a Full Spectrum and Abortion Doula, so I can support you through any reproductive health journey with respect and compassion. Birth is unpredictable, but my goal is always the same: to help you feel empowered, informed, and cared for, no matter what. If you’re looking for a doula who will listen deeply, support you fully, and celebrate your strength, I’d love to connect with you.

I have over 20 years of public health experience working at the private, state and federal level. The importance of public health and living a healthy lifestyle has been my life since I was a young girl! My mother set the stage early in life by encouraging an overall holistic approach.

I have always had an interest in maternal and child health and a passion to support women during one of the most important seasons of life, the sacred transition into motherhood. After having children of my own, I answered the call to follow my dream and become a doula. My goal is to educate and provide resources for healthy food and lifestyle choices that can lead to a better quality of life for those in the family and future years.

Hi! I’m Manda, and I’m a birth and postpartum doula with a deep passion for supporting mothers through one of the most transformative seasons of their lives. My journey into doula work became personal after experiencing pregnancy loss and later becoming a rainbow baby mama myself. Those experiences gave me a greater understanding of how important compassionate, intentional, and continuous support truly is during pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and motherhood. I believe every mother deserves to feel heard, safe, empowered, and genuinely cared for. As a doula, I provide emotional, physical, and educational support throughout the journey — from pregnancy preparation and labor support to postpartum recovery and adjusting to life with baby. I love helping families feel confident, informed, and never alone during this chapter. My goal is to create a nurturing space where moms feel supported not just during birth, but throughout motherhood as a whole. If you’re looking for a doula who leads with compassion, advocacy, and real connection, I’d love to connect with you!
