Hello, my name is Synia L Rodgers, I am a Certified Birth Doula in Cedar Hill, TX. In twenty-nine years of serving, I have been there for several young ladies helping them prepare for their expecting babies and coaching them during their deliveries. One of my greatest joys was coaching my grandson into the world. I continue to be there for the mothers as their children have grown, from answering their questions on motherhood to helping them with other resources. I continue my journey as a DONA/Certified Doula, by enhancing my training and knowledge. To better assist women in need of a little extra TLC during their pregnancy and delivery. My mission is to help others along their life’s journey while assisting and witness the birth of new life. I have been married to my sweetheart for many years, proud mother of three and grandmother of four wonderful children. I am very active within my community, previous founder and business owner of a medical staffing service and human resources consulting. I am a wedding event planner, and my greatest joy is assisting others with a willingness to serve you with sincerity and compassion.

Synia and I began our transformative journey together in October 2024, when I was 8 months pregnant. We had just made the move to Cedar Hill and I was struggling to adjust to my new OBGYN office, but Synia's unwavering support and advocacy instantly lifted my spirits. She empowered me to take control of my pregnancy, arming me with invaluable techniques to remain calm and centered. Her wealth of knowledge and expertise not only benefited me but also enlightened my husband, creating a sense of unity and reassurance. As my delivery approached, Synia's patience and reassurance were a beacon of hope, even when things didn't go as planned. Her selfless dedication and energy were instrumental in ensuring a healthy delivery and a thriving baby. Synia's exceptional doula services were truly a game-changer, and I firmly believe that our connection blossomed into a lifelong friendship. She is a shining testament to the profound impact one person can have on another's life.

Hi everyone! I'm a birth doula located in Melissa, TX and a mom of 3 babies. Babies and mamas are my passion and I'm so blessed to have supported and loved on so many in the time I've been doing this. My goal is for every mom to learn to trust themselves, trust their bodies and feel confident going into pregnancy, birth and postpartum. If you don't have a village, I'm here to be that for you!

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Sydney as my doula during my VBAC journey! We were initially planning for a repeat C-section, but after hearing a friend’s inspiring story about her home VBAC, I felt motivated to explore other options. A mutual friend connected me with Sydney, and right from our first meeting, the good vibes were undeniable—especially since we shared the same name! It felt like a sign that we were a perfect match. What I really appreciated about Sydney is how real and honest she is. She doesn’t sugarcoat things just to keep you comfortable—she tells you the truth and gives you all the facts, which is so important when planning your birth. Her straightforward approach helped me feel empowered to make informed decisions and commit to my plan for an unmedicated birth. After my previous experience with interventions that led to an unnecessary C-section, I was determined to do things differently this time. Sydney was super responsive to all my questions throughout my pregnancy, which really calmed my nerves. When the big day finally came, Sydney was a total rockstar! Her presence was empowering, and I felt like I could really go for it. After the birth, she came for a home visit, which was such a sweet touch. She brought us thoughtful goodies and shared valuable tips on postpartum care, even though this wasn’t my first rodeo with a newborn.

My name is Genicia Battle, known in the Ifá community as Ifáfúnké Àṣọre. I am a Full Circle Doula and Birth Companion, trained through the SMC Full Circle Doula Birth Companion Training. A program rooted in the cultural, historical, and spiritual traditions of African American midwifery and birth work. I became a doula because every birthing person deserves to feel seen, supported, and spiritually connected throughout their journey. I know the difference it makes to birth in a space that feels warm, honoring, and sacred. My vision is to offer families not only emotional and spiritual support, but also culturally rooted healing tools that nurture the womb, body, and soul. Birth is not just a moment! It is a portal! My purpose is to ensure that every mother steps through it feeling whole, powerful, and profoundly connected to her divine nature.

I am honored to have crossed paths with Genicia. She is truly a blessing in my life. I shared my pregnancy journey and expressed my desire for a holistic doula. Well, let me tell you, she was incredibly responsive to my texts and calls, no matter the time of day. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always has a listening ear, ready to provide solutions. She is not afraid to let me know that certain aspects of my pregnancy concerns do not fall within her scope of practice and that WE should discuss them with my OB. I truly appreciate her willingness to provide me with a curated tea I take daily, affirmations to boost my spirits, and a listening ear to my concerns. If you are in Texas area and seeking a knowledgeable, understanding, and holistic doula, she will always be my top choice. I still have a few more months of my pregnancy journey, but I am confident that you will see more written reviews from me as we explore the transitioning times of birthing and postpartum together.

Hello! I am a Licensed Midwife (LM) and a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) proudly serving families through compassionate, holistic, homebirth care. Located in the heart of Fort Worth, Texas, I serve a 90-mile radius of “Cowtown.” Having had a homebirth practice previously in Abilene and San Angelo, Texas, I have a strong background in rural birth. Through my work, I work to prove that birth is not just a physical event- it’s a profoundly sacred, transformative journey. My heart is to walk alongside you with wisdom, gentleness, and strength as you welcome your baby into the world, right in the comfort and safety of your own home. With years of hands-on experience and a deep respect for the physiological process of birth, I offer care that is evidence-based, deeply personal, and grounded in trust. My approach to midwifery is rooted in respect for your body and your choices- including strong, informed support for those searching for a trial of labor after a cesarean and hoping for a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean). Birth is not a one-size-fits-all experience, and I’m here to ensure your voice is central in every decision.

I’m Em - mama of many, wife to my best friend and new homestead-er. I created my photography business in 2018 not knowing exactly what I wanted to capture, I just knew I wanted to help those in my community save their memories for a lifetime. Fast forward to 2021, I attended my first birth, a sweet home birth. After that I know that birth work was exactly what I was looking for - it has become my passion. In winter of 2022 I got my doula certification to serve local mamas during their pregnancy, labor and postpartum. Now, today in 2024 I have served over 19 mamas and counting and have been published for my birth photography workin a magazine and I have won awards on my work. I enrolled at MCU as a student midwife in 2023 with the intentions to graduate with a bachelors of science in midwifery in 2027. I am currently serving those in the Johnstown, OH + surrounding area.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Valerie throughout my pregnancy, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was attentive, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and provide both emotional and physical support every step of the way. Her calm presence and reassuring guidance helped me feel confident and prepared, even during the most overwhelming moments. What stood out the most was her ability to anticipate my needs before I even voiced them—whether it was offering comfort techniques, providing resources, or simply being a steady, encouraging presence. She made me feel truly supported, respected, and cared for during one of the most important times in my life. Thanks to Valerie, my pregnancy and birth experience were so much more positive and empowering. I’m deeply grateful for her dedication and would highly recommend her services to any expectant parent looking for compassionate, reliable, and skilled support.

Hello! I'm Melinda, wife to Seth, and mother to Abigail, Luke, Keturah, Naomi, Isaac, Elijah, and Mattias. While my family lived in South Africa(2018-2019), I was blessed to become a certified doula through their WOMBS (women offering mothers birth support) program. Along with in-person classes, I experienced hands-on doula opportunities with laboring women in 2 different hospital locations in Johannesburg. I believe this experience opened my heart to truly seeing the importance of having a strong support system during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum. Children are a blessing from the Lord and every mother deserves the best through her pregnancy/delivery. I personally have experienced 3 hospital births, 2 birth center deliveries, and 2 home births. I am here to support you and help you make the most memorable and peaceful birth possible. If you are pregnant and would like the support of a doula, please reach out to me. I would love to meet you and see if I am the right doula for you.

Melinda was God sent. We I don’t know what we would have done without her assistance during our labor. She was truly amazing. So supportive through every stage of the process and so knowledgeable. She helped us have a piece of mind and confidence throughout the whole delivery.

I am so excited you’re here!! 💞 I am Alice Perez, Certified Birth Doula serving Collin and Grayson County, TX. I am absolutely wild about birth. Experiencing two different but beautiful births myself fueled a fire in me to support birthing individuals. I believe every birth has a purpose— to grow, to create, to expand, to learn, to heal. My goal is to assist you in leaning into this purpose and becoming the mother you were always made to be. ✨ I hope to answer any questions, provide support and references, and help you to make your birth every bit as intense and magical and full of devine purpose that it can be.

Hi! My name is Rebeca Gedeon and I am a certified birth doula located in Weatherford, TX. I love supporting moms in all labor and delivery locations, and with any kind of provider. My first experience with birth was when my mom delivered my brother under the supervision of a traditional midwife over 24 years ago. I have since had 6 children of my own, and those labors and deliveries fueled my passion for supporting moms. I have personal experience with twins and NICU. I have supported moms through their dream births as well as birth plans that needed adjustment for medically necessary reasons. One of my biggest strengths is supporting mom in what they wish, but also being able to slow down and explain what is going on if plans have to adjust rapidly. I will labor with you at home if you desire, even if you plan to transfer to another location, and I will follow you into the OR if needed and desired. I am not only a certified labor and birth doula, I have added training with body balancing techniques to help you and your body navigate labor. I am familiar with Spinning Babies techniques. I am a StillBirthday student doula. And I am currently in training to become a placenta encapsulation specialist. I am also a Christian doula and love to incorporate quiet prayer and intercession into my care when it is desired. I've watched the Lord work miracles for families and believe in the power of prayer in the labor space. When I am not at a birth I spend my time homeschooling my children and playing with my children. I also greatly enjoy floral work, knitting and crocheting, and baking!
