Hello, my name is Ambria and I’m a certified birth doula through DONA international. I have several years of experience working in the healthcare industry including OBGYN, and my experience there has helped me come to the conclusion that I want to give women more individualized and direct care. I’ve provided both in-person and virtual doula support. I'm here to support you in having the birth that you feel is best for you and your health, whether that birth is a scheduled induction, a repeat cesarean section, a natural delivery, or a VBAC. I am currently a part-time doula. My goal is to become a full-time doula and assist as many women and families as possible. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns and I look forward to hearing from you! Let’s make this an empowering journey together!

Ambria Moore was my prenatal and birth doula. She was more than that. She did an exceptional job. I had a cesarean section 12 months before I met her. I always wanted to have a vaginal birth. When I saw my provider I was literally shamed for wanting a vaginal birth 16 months after a cesarean. I lost all my hope until she stepped in. She believed more than me that I could do it. She was with me through every process and I had a very long exhausting labor. Everyone including me were exhausted but her. I would’ve given up if she wasn’t there! She was god sent! I had a very easy recovery and I was able to carry both my babies in a month. I would say she made it happen!

I’m passionate about creating a holistic, calm, and enjoyable birth experience, tailored to each family’s unique needs. I believe that when the environment is relaxing and supportive, birth can be empowering, memorable, and even joyful. Outside of doula work, I love to meditate, write, read, spend time with my family, and sip green tea. I have a lifelong love of the beach and seafood boils, which keeps me grounded and connected to my roots. Doula Dynasty is about empowerment, connection, and generational impact. I provide compassionate, holistic, evidence-based care in a nurturing environment, honoring your choices and helping families feel confident, seen, and celebrated.

For as long as I can remember I knew I wanted to be involved with birth work in some capacity. I want to hold space for mothers to use their voice and to maintain the sacredness of birth. My goal is to be what you need in the moment you need it.

Hi friends! My name is Lindsay and I am a trained birth doula with a passion for helping people. I have held onto my certification for several years while working as a CNA, too afraid to be a part of something as monumental as childbirth. This all changed when I had my son in June of 2023 - I knew that I had more to offer than just an extra hand. I believe in the power of choice, the intuitive process of birth, and that we all need a little extra support in such vulnerable and transformative times in our lives.

Alyssa was such a blessing! After going into labor, my husband and I were unsure about when to go to the hospital and what to do to help labor progress. Alyssa helped us labor at home for six hours before my water broke and we headed to the hospital. While we were at home she was such a great support. She helped me move around and change positions a lot more than I would have on my own. We walked up and down the stairs, knelt on all fours, and moved into different positions with the yoga ball. When I was moving around, Alyssa did counter pressure on my lower back which made a big difference as well. It was a relief to have her advice on when to call the midwife and in timing contractions. She stayed with me when I was admitted to the hospital and continued to help me move around into different positions in the hospital room and took turns with my husband and a friend doing counter pressure on my back. My labor was longer than expected which was scary at times, but Alyssa continued to be a big support as we made decisions. She helped remind me of what I had requested in my birth plan, and made sure I was aware and able to make an informed decision when the providers suggested deviations from the plan. Eventually my beautiful, healthy baby boy was born. Alyssa stayed with us for several hours after his birth to make sure we were doing well and getting a great start with nursing. A week after the birth she came back to our house and helped with our baby overnight so my husband and I could get some much needed sleep. It was a big help to have support postpartum, especially since we don’t have family nearby to help. Even if I was not planning to have an unmedicated birth, I would hire Alyssa again because it is such a comfort to have someone knowledgeable with you to assist during labor and with decision making.

Hi mama, I’m a NICU nurse, mother of 5, and birth doula serving Wake and Franklin Counties, and I am so passionate about helping you achieve an empowering birth. I have experienced an emergency c-section, a twin VBAC, IVF and I’m an adoptive mom to my second son. It is my greatest joy to see moms full of confidence and knowledge going into their births. I work with you to address questions and fears you may have. We work together to change negative thought processes to positive and empowering ones by creating personalized birth and pregnancy affirmations. I help you to create a birth plan that considers all aspects of birth and beyond so that you can feel prepared on your special day. I meet with you in home prenatally and will meet you at your home or at your birth place at any time during your labor. After baby is born I will visit you in your home again to make sure you are transitioning well. I would love to connect to see if you feel like we would make a great team. I look forward to meeting you. You were born to do this!
