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.

Jackie has been such an answered prayer for me and my family. I heard about her through mutual friends, reached out, and quickly met with her to go over my birth history, trauma, and hopes for my VBAC. I wanted an unmedicated VBAC, and with her support, I got that experience in the end. She listened deeply, cared sincerely, and that was evident throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She is steady and helped me stay grounded. She never made anything feel like an emergency unless it truly was. Anytime I needed support, information, encouragement, or help making decisions, she was there immediately with wisdom, resources, and alternatives. I also took her birth classes and learned so much that helped me stay confident and informed throughout my pregnancy. I especially loved how she shared her own birth experiences in such an authentic and encouraging way. During the final weeks before labor, I leaned on her DAILY for encouragement and support. She reminded me that my body wasn’t broken after my first birth and helped me learn to trust it again. During labor, she held my hand through contractions, encouraged me constantly, and helped me stay calm and focused. Postpartum, she continued showing up by bringing food, holding my baby, and answering questions during those early weeks. One of the things I appreciated most was sharing faith in Christ throughout the experience. Having a doula who carried herself with such peace, encouragement, and genuine faith was incredibly comforting and meaningful to me. She is authentic, compassionate, and truly loves what she does. I’m forever grateful for her support and will absolutely continue recommending her to everyone I know. I hope she helps me birth all the rest of my babies too!

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.

Natasha rocks! What a Godsend!! She was so incredible to work with, and I really can't recommend her enough. From the beginning, she was super respectful about our desires for birth. And she was always easy to get a hold of with any questions I had. Her prenatal visits really helped us prepare for the mental and physical aspects of birth. She gave us so much good information, even for postpartum. Natasha was great tor showing my husband how to support me too! When labor started, Natasha was so loving and helpful with all my first-time momma nerves. She met me at my house during early labor and followed us to the hospital when I was ready. Before I could be admitted, the hospital required me to consent to a cervical check. I did, but the check was not done well and I refused getting another. The doctor kept pressing me to do another while I was bawling in pain, working through hard contractions every minute by that time. Natasha very respectfully and tactfully stood up for me, and I'll never forget that. As I was admitted and continued to labor, Natasha supported me so well. I seriously couldn't have asked for a more amazing doula. The whole time, I felt as though she genuinely cared for us and supported our goals for birth. I'm so glad she was by my side!
