I am a birth and postpartum doula deeply committed to supporting families with compassionate, evidence-based care during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I believe birth is a powerful, transformative experience, and every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and confident in their choices. I also offer placenta encapsulation services as well as placenta and breast milk art. My philosophy centers on informed consent, intuitive support, and meeting each family exactly where they are; emotionally, physically, and culturally. I strive to create a calm, grounded presence that allows birthing parents to feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout their journey. I am honored to have been voted Best Doula in Houston for 2025, a recognition that reflects my dedication to personalized care and meaningful connection with the families I serve. Whether you’re planning a medicated birth, unmedicated birth, or something in between, my role is not to direct your experience, but to walk alongside you, offering education, advocacy, and unwavering support so you can approach birth with confidence and trust in your body.

Debbie Thomas of Guiding Hands Birth Services was an incredible source of peace and guidance throughout our first birth journey. As first-time parents, we had so many questions and hopes for a low-intervention birth. Debbie provided a thoughtful guide we frequently turned to, and her late-night and early morning support allowed us to ask questions without any judgment. During my long 35-hour labor, Debbie remained a calming and steady presence, even when complications led to a C-section. Afterward, my husband reflected on the moments where I was so scared and weak, she was able to give support he didn’t know to give ‘That’s exactly why we decided to hire Debbie… she was worth every penny.’ She has such a heart for serving others, and we are deeply grateful. If you are in The Woodlands or surrounding area, Debbie Thomas is exactly who you want by your side… she will guide you with compassion, knowledge, and unwavering support.

My name is DeNae, CD , Certified Prenatal, Labor, and Postpartum Doula. I will not be accepting clients between July 2024 and May2025. A little bit about me: my approach is centered around meeting the demands of labor with Holistic practices and physiological therapies. My goal is to provide you with the tools you need to make educated decisions in the birthing room. And before we get to the birthing space we will focus on navigating the healthcare system in a way where you are informed about your care , advocating for yourself, educating yourself on what to expect during labor and postpartum recovery.

DeNae provided postpartum doula services for me and she was nothing short of amazing. She was always on time, very loving and caring and even brought juices and gave a dietary plan to help me with postpartum recovery! I truly loved having her around & I always recommend her to others.

I have been a birth worker for 8 years and have 15 years of infant care experience as a professional nanny, postpartum doula, and educator. I am a mom of 4 crazy lovable kiddos (2015, 2017, 2021, and 2023) and I have personally experienced hospital birth and out of hospital birth. It was the care of 2 volunteer doulas during my first birth who helped drive my desire to become a birth worker. I am passionate about education as an incredible tool to build confidence and help birth outcomes. I believe everyone should have access to the highest level of education and care during their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. This is driven by my belief that every person is born with inherent dignity, value, and worth and that women’s bodies are strong and beautifully made to birth their baby. I have a true calling to do this work and it is an incredible honor to be part of each family’s birth journey that I serve! When I am not teaching childbirth education or processing a placenta, I enjoy servicing at my church and all things musical theatre and fantasy. Two things that will always make me smile are dance parties with my kids and trying new restaurants with my husband.

I had the privilege of working with Sasha as my doula during my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period. I cannot express enough gratitude for her exceptional support. From the very beginning, Sasha demonstrated a level of professionalism, compassion, and expertise that truly made a difference in my birthing experience. During my pregnancy, Sasha was a constant source of knowledge and reassurance. She took the time to understand my unique needs and concerns, providing me with evidence-based information and guidance that helped me make informed decisions. Her ability to listen attentively and offer non-judgmental support created a safe space for me to express my fears and anxieties. When it came time for the birth, Sasha's presence was invaluable. Her calm demeanor and unwavering support helped me confidently navigate the intense moments. She provided physical comfort measures, emotional encouragement, and continuous reassurance, ensuring I felt empowered and in control throughout the process. Sasha's expertise in various birthing techniques, such as positioning, proved incredibly helpful in promoting progress. But Sasha's support didn't end with the birth. During the postpartum period, she remained a pillar of strength and guidance. She offered practical assistance with newborn care and emotional well-being. Her genuine care and understanding made transitioning from two to three children smoother and less overwhelming. Overall, Sasha's dedication to her role as a doula is commendable. Her knowledge, professionalism, and unwavering support were instrumental in making my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience positive and empowering. I wholeheartedly recommend Sasha to any expectant mother seeking a compassionate and skilled doula who will go above and beyond to ensure a memorable and fulfilling journey into parenthood.

Krista is like an angel! As soon as I interviewed her she made me feel so comfortable, and I knew she was to Doula for me throughout my pregnancy. She would check in to see if I had any questions, and to check how I was physically and emotionally. If I did have questions, she was always so great at getting back to me quickly. She also came to a prenatal appointment with me to meet my Midwife, which I thought was really cool. I had contractions for days before actual labor, and she was ready to help as soon as I needed her. I labored at home with her by my side and she was such a comfort. She also helped my husband feel reassured, which helped him feel confident in helping me himself. She also encapsulated my placenta for me. I didn’t know whata doula was with my first pregnancy three years before, and having her made all the difference in labor. I wish everyone could use her as their Doula. The fact that she’s a mom herself who has used many of the techniques she help me use to stay calm, breathe through the pain, and be confident about birth was so comforting. She cares so much about the mom she’s trying to help and you can feel the love she has for her role as a Doula. I would choose her again and again.
