Hi, I'm Tayler Robins! I'm a proud wife and mom of three amazing boys. My journey into the birth community began after experiencing birth trauma with my first birth. It was a challenging time, but I was fortunate enough to have a doula by my side during my second birth who empowered me to advocate for myself. That experience not only helped me heal but also ignited a passion to support others in their birth journeys. I’ve now chosen to be a part of the birth community, helping others feel empowered and confident as they navigate their own experiences. I'm excited to bring my personal experience and compassion to this field, and I look forward to making a positive impact on families' birth stories.

Preparing for birth can feel overwhelming — especially when so much feels unknown. Many women carry quiet fears about labor, the hospital, pain, and whether they will feel safe, supported, and truly heard during the experience. My name is Mira, and I provide continuous emotional and physical support throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My role is not to replace medical care, but to walk beside you through this important transition — helping you feel calmer, more informed, and more connected to yourself along the way. Birth is not only about what happens medically. It is also about how you feel while it is happening. You deserve to feel supported, respected, and not alone in the process. I stay with you through the intensity, the uncertainty, the emotions, and the powerful moments in between — offering guidance, reassurance, comfort, and steady support step by step. As a mother of five, I understand how deeply important it is to feel safe, cared for, and emotionally held during this time. If you’re pregnant and searching for more support, guidance, or reassurance, I offer free consultations to help you explore whether we would be a good fit to work together.

Hello there and congratulations! I am a homeschooling mama to four girls and a lover of all things birth. I believe that birth is a natural process and I love helping empower couples as they welcome their babies into the world. I’ve been teaching natural childbirth classes for 12 years, attending births as a doula for 7 years, and am now studying to become a homebirth midwife. If you want someone who is going to be a positive, uplifting voice throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, I’d love to be that for you.

Hi, I’m Terri—a full-spectrum doula, photographer, wife, and mom of three. For over 25 years, I’ve walked alongside families as a social worker, and for the past 20 years, I’ve had the honor of documenting life’s most meaningful moments through photography. Supporting families has always been at the heart of who I am, and becoming a doula felt like a natural extension of that calling. I believe birth and the journey into parenthood are sacred, transformative experiences. My role is to offer calm, steady support—emotionally, physically, and informationally—so families feel seen, heard, and confident in their choices. Whether I’m holding space during labor or preserving those first fleeting moments, I’m here to walk beside you with compassion, strength, and care.

Hi, my name is Kasey Tolliver. I’m a mom of two, a doula, and a community health worker. My journey into birth work began after my first child was born by C-section. I struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety, and during that challenging season I found comfort and connection in local moms’ groups. Being surrounded by mothers with similar experiences lit a fire in me—I knew I wanted to support women through these vulnerable, powerful moments. I became a doula to deepen my knowledge of childbirth and to better serve families. After completing my certification, I went on to achieve a successful, non-medicated VBAC with my second child—an experience that strengthened my confidence and reinforced my belief in the power and resilience of birthing women. Today, my mission is to remind women of their strength, ensure families receive the care and respect they deserve wherever they choose to give birth, and help create the safest, healthiest experience possible for both mom and baby.

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 bring a gentle, steady presence to every birth I attend.
