Hey, I'm Annie! I am a proud single mother to my beautiful son and extremely passionate Pre & Postnatal Corrective Exercise Specialist and soon to be Diastasis and Core Consultant. My passion for helping other moms and birthing people grew when I became pregnant at a challenging time in my life - 21 years old and in the middle of my Bachelor’s degree. It was the most uncertain, scary, and difficult time of my life yet I found a way to fully embrace it. As I began my education in the field of pre and postnatal wellness, I realized that there is a significant need which is simply that, WE NEED TO TAKE BETTER CARE OF THE WELL-BEING OF THOSE WHO ARE BIRTHING OUR NEXT GENERATIONS - our mothers and birthing people need, and deserve more. ⁣More resources, more education, more intentional whole-person care. My mission is to guide and educate others in how to cultivate vibrant birthing years in their own unique journey. ⁣ Thank you for joining in and I am SOO excited to begin this journey alongside you. 💛✨

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.

Hello and welcome! My name is Melanie and I am married to my husband Tyree! We live in Raleigh and have a beautiful daughter, Ava Brooke and a Chihuahua, Penelope. I enjoy listening to podcasts, shopping, exercising, and spending quality time with my little fam when I am not supporting my clients. I have 10+ years of experience with serving families in the triangle area. My background is in education as I have a B.S. degree in early childhood studies. I am a certified Labor and certified Postpartum and Infant Care doula. My goal as your doula is to honor your birth plan/goals, keep your space safe and comfortable, and to give you evidence based information so that you can make your own informed decisions. A few words to describe me are: calm, bubbly, nurturing, & supportive.

Hi! I’m Trisha, a postpartum doula with a big heart for babies and the people who bring them into this world. I’ve spent over 15 years caring for little ones and supporting new families, and I truly believe that no one should have to walk this journey alone. Those early days (and nights!) with a newborn can be beautiful, overwhelming, and everything in between. I’m here to be a calm and steady presence, someone who shows up with open arms, a listening ear, and a helping hand. Through Melodies in Bloom Doula Services, I offer both daytime and overnight support. Whether you need extra rest, help with newborn care, or just someone to talk to during a 3 a.m. feeding, I’ve got you. My goal is to support you in a way that feels natural and empowering, like having a good friend who happens to know a lot about babies! You’ve got this… and I’ve got you.

My name is Michelle and I have been a photographer in the Raleigh and Triangle for for over 15 years. My photography mostly focuses on children as I have never worked a day in my life that children were not part of that day. I worked in mental health and in schools before becoming a photographer. Additionally, I also ran an equine 4H program when I stepped out of a classroom. Working with the children and horses was very exciting. Some of my 4H studios even wanted photography lessons. They won ribbons at the 4H show with their photographs. First place of course… There is nothing more beautiful to photograph than a child. Children come in all ages. I specialize in the art of newborn photography and I love it. The newborn images are so sweet. Oh how I wish I had images like this of my own children to hang on the wall. I have two wonderful children myself, Taylor and Zach, and am so happy to have recorded much of their lives with my camera. Before I started shooting professionally, I paid a wonderful local photographer, Lundie, to do this for me. Many of her beautiful images are displayed in my home. It’s so wonderful to go back in time by looking at these images. Having worked with children my entire life helps me to form quick relationships with the wonderful little people that I photograph. God gave me a special gift. I have always known that my gift was the ability to interact with young people in a way that makes them feel heard, important and valued. Many parents have commented that their children, even the shy ones, seem to warm up to me quickly. I love photographing high school seniors as well. We always have a great time at the sessions. I am adventurous and creative which tends to appeal to teenagers. We always scout out unique locations so that their high school senior images are unique and tell a story about them.
