Nafeesa was responsive, caring and knowledgeable. She held virtual meetings with my husband and I to let us know what to expect throughout my first pregnancy. I would highly recommend her! She will remain calm and professional, while I was in labor and collaborated with my husband to ensure that most of my plan was executed.

Having Zaira as my doula was amazing. She came to my home when I was having prodromal labor and helped me do exercises that got me into actual labor that same night. She stayed by my side the whole time at the birthing center and looked out for my husband like I requested when she saw he was in shock after our baby was born. When I felt like I couldn't do it anymore she reassured me that we where almost at the finish line and talked me through to the end.

I love all things, mom and baby and a mother of two boys myself (17 & 12). I would love to help you get acclimated to your new baby, get settled into a new rhythm, and feel confident in parenting. Feel free to reach out. I work with a team of trained, certified and background checked doulas and we are all here to help you build your village!

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Lavi. I reached out to her because my wife was very overwhelmed and I was about to return back to work. She came in our household and really helped my wife find peace. She helped our baby fall asleep on a schedule (which she is still on), she always made sure my wife had something to eat, every time I came home from work my wife was very relaxed and I learned a lot about how I can help. I think she made a huge difference in our lives and I’m very glad that she was able to support us.

Hello, I’m Veronica - a doula and homeschooling mama situated in Houston, Texas! You may often find me nap trapped in under a pile of babies; it's one of my favorite places to be. With six little ones to tend to, I have encountered childbirth in numerous variations ranging from natural births at hospitals, to traumatic hospital deliveries, an unfortunate stillbirth at 28 weeks, and a planned freebirth at home. As a doula, I possess a unique advantage that sets me apart - my personal journey through motherhood and grief. My doula training combined with this experience have equipped me with the necessary skills to provide exceptional care to expecting mothers. I am dedicated to treating my clients with warmth and affection, approaching their needs with the same attentiveness and devotion as I would a close friend. I offer personalized support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, ensuring you feel safe and informed.

You deserve to walk into birth informed and walk out whole. I'm Mitsuzi—labor & delivery nurse and founder of Birthing Noire Doula Collective. I started this work because I watched too many families experience birth without truly understanding what was happening to their bodies or what their options were. Now I lead a team of certified doulas who bring both clinical knowledge and grounded, hands-on support to Houston families navigating fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Here's what makes us different: collective care. You're matched with one primary doula, I handle your education and birth planning, and if labor extends beyond 12 hours, I step in for relief so you get fresh support when you need it most. No one burns out. You stay held. We serve families who want more than generic advice—you want real education, honest advocacy, and care that doesn't run out. We don't fold... we flow.

As a Gentle Sleep Coach and mother to two, I understand that every child is unique and has individual needs. Learning a new skill is meant to be a natural, joyful experience and children thrive when the process of discovery is lovingly enouraged and gently reinforced. When helping you teach your child a new sleep habit or skill, I provide guidance and tools that are customized to your son or daughter's own pace, developmental age and temperament. I use a parent-present approach that strengthens attachment and minimizes crying.

I'm passionate about supporting diverse families in the transition that welcoming their little one brings. Deepening the relationship with your newborn requires you to invest a lot of your energy into nurturing their blossoming. My role is to walk beside you on this journey, and be one of those people in the village they speak of when they tell you what it takes to raise a child. I care deeply about the mental health and wellbeing especially in the postpartum period. I'm truly honored to hold space during this time for families. I believe love is what truly makes a family a family. I am LGBTQ+ and Latinx.

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do. Her light coming in helped me TRULY calm down and start enjoying my pregnancy experience. I truly recommend any and everyone to definitely have Ms. Foster for their doula.
