I’m passionate about empowering families to achieve their individual feeding goals and ensuring they feel confident throughout their breastfeeding journey. As a Registered Nurse since 2009 and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) since 2016, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of families to support them during their breastfeeding journey. With experience in labor and delivery, postpartum care, lactation support, and education, I’ve helped guide families through both in-person and virtual classes, as well as support groups. As a mother of three, each with their own unique breastfeeding journey, I deeply understand the challenges and joys of this experience.

My name is Hannah and I’m a birth and postpartum doula. I have a Bachelors in Elementary Education and taught kindergarten until my son was born in 2020. Although my role adjusted when becoming a mother, a fire was ignited through my birth experience, and I started researching how I could make a difference. After my daughter’s redeeming home birth in 2022, I knew that becoming a doula was a tangible way I could impact mothers and the next generation for the better. By providing emotional support, evidence-based information and physical support, I strive to make the family’s life changing, transitional time a smoother one. I am trained through DONA as a birth doula and Lifespan doulas for postpartum work. Besides classroom experience, I also have nannied for several families over the past few years. It is my goal as your birth or postpartum doula to make you feel seen and heard. In my free time, you can find me spending time with my kiddos outside, serving at our local church, grabbing coffee with friends, going on family walks or experimenting in the kitchen.

Hannah was able to provide me with virtual and in person support for the birth of my baby. She quickly responded to any question I had and gave me clear, practical information tailored for me. She shares your emotional journey in a way that makes you feel empowered and validated for any feeling or question you may have. She is sweet, knowledgable, and comprehensive about what she knows. She is prepared with lots of different ideas for pain-reducing techniques during the natural birth of my baby as well as providing alternatives when needed. She displays an assertive, yet respectful bedside manner and advocates to the doctors and nurses with for your best interest. She checked in frequently and even reached out many times after my baby was born to check not only on the baby, but also me as well to see how I was doing physically and emotionally. She took lots of time to help me find out an answer to a pain I was having after birth and resolve it. She is easy to talk to and understanding of what you are going through. I would highly recommend hiring Hannah Wright to be your doula.

Kristen was an absolute lifesaver for our family—especially as first-time parents. She was reliable, professional, and incredibly warm, with such a sweet and gentle way with our newborn (and us). Each morning, she gave us a helpful recap of how our daughter slept and shared thoughtful, experience-based advice tailored to our baby’s habits. Her support gave us so much peace of mind (and much-needed rest!). Our only regret is not booking more nights with her in those early weeks!

Thank you so much for stopping by! My journey to birth work began in 2017, following the birth of my first baby. I have been a fully certified childbirth educator and doula since 2018. Additionally, I recently obtained my Certified Breastfeeding Specialist certificate (CBS) from Lactation Education Resources in October 2025. Prior to getting into birth work, I attended Notre Dame of Maryland University, where I studied biology and graduated with high honors. I have since become a mother of 2. Both of my children were born without intervention and at home. When not working, I can be found reading for pleasure, exercising, doing yoga, hiking, or gardening. I reside in Bowie, MD and serve clients within a 50-mile radius of my home.

My husband and I took her Bradley method in-person course while expecting our first child. What initially seemed like a mysterious and complicated process was laid out so clearly and realistically that by the time we finished the class, we are alot more confident we can have the unmedicated, natural, birth center birth that we have been planning for. Kristen is not only knowledgeable, but approachable and makes herself completely available to all questions and concerns. You can tell she is very passionate about birth work and the course is well-worth your time!

Hi, I'm Catherine! I live in Hyattsville with my husband, 2.5 YO son and puppy named Daisy. After graduating from the University of Maryland in 2014, I traveled around doing some mission work, met my husband while living in Maine and eventually we landed back in my hometown to start a family. I love spending time at the beach, going for walks outside, a little coffee with my cream, fuzzy socks, loud country music, driving with the windows down, bonfires, sweater weather, cooking and baking from scratch, salted caramel, mom groups and Gilmore Girls. I believe that birth is meant to work, and that all women deserve support, encouragement and respect while they are birthing their beautiful baby! Let me walk with you on this journey towards motherhood however that looks for you. I am happy to support you with in-person or virtual doula services. I am trained in Hypnobirthing and Lamaze techniques, and currently working towards certification with Madriella Birth Doula Certification. I am excited to meet you and support you on this journey - reach out to me today so we can chat about your hopes and dreams for this birth! :)

Catherine is an incredible doula! From the very start she made me feel supported, informed, and cared for. She was by my side through every step—preparing me and my husband before labor, encouraging us during delivery, and continuing to check in afterward. Her knowledge, compassion, and advocacy made all the difference. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely have her by my side for future pregnancies!

Recent review

From the moment we met Heather, she felt like a member of our family. She was instrumental in helping us achieve a beautiful labor and birth, advocating for my preferences, managing pain, and guiding me through various positions to facilitate progress in labor. In the weeks leading up to the birth, Heather dedicated several hours to preparing my partner and me. She encouraged us to consider different scenarios, practiced Spinning Babies techniques with us, and discussed my labor preferences in detail. Thanks to her calming expertise, we approached the experience without anxiety, confident in Heather’s support. When I faced a complication after delivery, Heather remained by our side throughout. She guided my partner in supporting me and advocated to keep our baby with me at all times—something I believe greatly contributed to the positive outcome of our situation. After we were discharged, Heather visited us at home and provided invaluable practical support that we hadn’t received at the hospital. She helped with swaddling, bottle feeding, soothing a fussy baby, and even advised us on some essential overnight Amazon purchases. During this time, Heather also assisted us in navigating and processing the trauma we experienced, validating our complex feelings and helping us appreciate the beauty of our birth. Heather will always be a cherished part of our family and our story. We cannot recommend her services enough.

Dominique was an advocate every step of the way. Each visit I had and the doctors I saw that would say one thing, Dominique would FaceTime and speak up for me and ask the questions so I could easily understand for me and my baby. She helped me understand as a first time mom how important it was to know what I was being told and assisted me in making best decisions for my birth.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Laura Hippeard, our newborn care specialist/nighttime doula. With over 20 years of experience, she brought so much knowledge, patience, and care into our home. She was incredibly attentive to my newborn’s needs and seemed to understand exactly what he needed, even before we did! She was also very respectful and adaptive to our family’s routines and preferences. I loved how she took the time to answer all our questions, address our concerns, and give thoughtful feedback that really helped us care for our newborn. Her calm and nurturing presence brought us so much comfort during those early weeks. I’m beyond grateful for her support and would recommend her to any new family looking for someone experienced, kind, and truly dedicated.

I believe in honoring the sacred wisdom of the womb and using holistic practices to cultivate self-love, informed choices, and a birth experience filled with knowledge, power, and joy. Let's connect and co-create the birthing and wellness experience you deserve!

We hired Alexis as a birth doula and then for some additional postpartum support too. Alexis was beyond helpful. She was generous with her time and wisdom. Of course things didn't go according to plan, these things never do, and she provided a calming, knowledge that let us work through the complications and feel comfortable with how to move forward. Alexis is well informed and allows you to share your ideas too. She is not at all pushy and supported whatever we wanted, but guided us when we really had no idea and needed a trusted source. Crunchy but not too crunchy, laidback but knows when to step in. I appreciated that we could talk about the details of a medical procedure and also chat about a good playlist. Easy to get in touch with and an all around great gal. I would definitely recommend Alexis for all your birth and baby needs.
