I’m Kelley, St. Louis birth doula, mom to 3 boys, married to the guy I fell in love with in high school. I became obsessed with birth after our first was born via cesarean after an induction for “dates” for “failure to progress.” Air quotes intended. The disappointment I felt surprised me; I dove into research about birth in America. I learned all about my fertility, chose a provider who would be supportive of a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC), and hired a doula. Best laid plans and all that… I had a cesarean for high blood pressure at 42 weeks. I definitely still felt disappointed over his birth, but because I was educated and well supported, I knew we had made the best decisions with the options we had. I still planned for VBA2C for baby #3, and was able to push him out of my body right into his daddy’s hands – with a lot of help from my medical team for high blood pressure again, and so much support from my doula. When my former industry got flip-turned upside down and my structural engineering days were forced to end, I decided to follow my passion and dreams and become a birth doula, and now life has moved us from our native Houston to St. Louis. I see my role as a birth doula like being a good coach. I’m on the sidelines with all the information for you, but you’re the one who has to execute the plays. I’m here to educate you and support you whether you’re having a baby at home in the water with twinkle lights, epidural or not at the hospital, or a planned cesarean. I’m going to meet you where you are and dig down into that hole with you. And after the baby is here and you’re overwhelmed, I’m available to help you out, listen to you, and get you through those first few weeks. When I’m not doula-ing, I’m training Jiu Jitsu, at the baseball fields, a wrestling meet, a choir or band event, playing banjo, or I’ve got my nose stuck in a book. And I’m always down for some Tex-Mex.

Kelley is the absolute best! From the moment we started working with Kelley during my first pregnancy, I knew she was the perfect fit for our birth team. I wanted to approach birth like an athlete—mentally and physically prepared, with a strong advocate by my side—and Kelley was exactly that. She was both coach and champion for me and my husband, ensuring we felt confident, informed, and supported every step of the way. When labor came, she was instrumental in helping me stay focused and in control. The movements she guided me through were game-changers, especially when my baby’s heart rate fluctuated during contractions. Thanks to her expertise, we were able to avoid additional interventions and stay on track for the vaginal birth I had planned. The nurses were raving about Kelley, praising how seamlessly she worked with them, understanding the plan of care and adjusting strategies in real time. Her presence brought a sense of calm, strength, and reassurance that I truly believe made all the difference in my experience. Without a doubt, Kelley will be a part of our birth team again when we welcome our next child. If you’re looking for a doula who will advocate fiercely, support you completely, and help you approach birth with confidence, Kelley is the one you want by your side. Thank you, Kelley, for being such an incredible part of our journey!

Hi! I'm Natasha, a mother of 2 daughters and a birth doula serving the St. Louis, Missouri area and the Metro East area in Southern Illinois since 2021. I like to have a holistic approach to the pregnancy and birth experience. I like to focus on nutrition and positioning techniques during pregnancy to help minimize end-of-pregnancy concerns and labor challenges. I started my doula journey shortly after my first born because I wanted to help other families to know that they do have a voice that matters. Having a cesarean myself, then a HBAC, I have a unique perspective on the difference of each of those experiences. I learned the importance of having the proper support, the right to informed choice and the resources to have a positive pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. That is what I hope I can provide to my community.

I highly recommend Natasha. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to teach you a lot about birth beforehand, while also providing excellent resources for both the mental and physical preparation, as well as postpartum support. During labor, she was a calm and reassuring presence, bringing both expertise and comfort. When we discovered our baby was sunny-side up during delivery, she guided us through the Spinning Babies Three Sisters of Balance technique, which helped us reposition the baby optimally. Her support made a real difference in our birth experience.

Hello my name is Doula Asia . I like to consider myself as a DOULAPRENEUR I am the owner of Doula Love, Light, & Life LLC. I am a Mom, Community Health Worker and Maternal Health Advocate. I became a full spectrum doula in 2020 because I want all birthing people to know they have options and a voice that can and will be heard when it comes to their body and baby. I want to help you know what questions to ask your provider, to know how to advocate for yourself, and to know there is someone in your corner to support you through pregnancy/birth/and postpartum journey. Motherhood is a beautiful thing but there is no manual on how we should be a mother but if you have the right support team it will be one of our greatest moments.

Asia was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable throughout my entire birthing and postpartum experience so far. She made sure that she knew all of my preferences for my birth plan far ahead of time and prepped me for as many natural pain remedies possible. I love how she included my mother and my partner, providing knowledge necessary to all of us during our meetings. Asia continuously checks in with me to ensure mine and the baby's health on a regular basis. She truly made my birth a comfortable and non-judgmental space for creating life. I would not have wanted to bring my baby into the world any other way. As a first time mom, I can definitely say that Asia made me feel prepared and supported the entire time. She is amazing!
