Jerilyn Free

Hi my name is Jerilyn Free but I go by “Jeri”. I am from the Triad are and am definitely a unicorn in this field. I am an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and a Certified Birth Doula. I have been working as a Birth Doula since 2016. I have assisted in vaginal births, c-sections, vbacs, water births, virtual doula work, and have supported families that have dealt with a loss. My experience is wide! Currently, I work in a hospital as a Lactation Consultant. My special touch is assisting families in the early days of learning your baby. Working with teens/young adults. These times are very important. Many times birthing parents may not get that special attention. So as a doula and an LC, I am can be there at the birth and can assisting you with your feeding needs. I am one of the Community Directors for Mahogany Milk as well as the Coordinator and Lead for Mahogany Milk Drops at the YWCA in Greensboro. I am a mother of 3 girls, each who I breastfed. I find myself unique because my Bachelor’s Degree is in Animal Science and a Master’s in Agriculture Education. I would love to be part of your birth story.

I highly recommend any expecting or new parent to connect with Jeri. She truly was a game changer in my delivery of my second daughter. I didn’t have a doula with my first child and I have to say, having Jeri by my side this time made my entire birthing experience feel soooo much better! She is very attentive, knowledgeable, and personable. She supported me in meeting my goal of an unmedicated delivery by helping me move through each contraction in a way that help progress the labor process. Jeri also was able to guide my husband and family with how they could best assist me through the delivery as well. She was able to quickly build rapport with both the nursing staff and providers to ensure my wishes were known and upheld. I am SO grateful for Jeri and encourage everyone I know to utilize her services — you will not regret it!

As a first time mom, having a doula was very important to me. I hired Monica as my doula for my 2025 birth. Monica provided much insight surrounding prenatal care, labor, delivery, and postnatal care. Her communication skills were as outlined as she provided details regarding her role and expectations, which left minimum room for questions due to being very informative. Hiring Monica, was one of the most rewarding aspects of my pregnancy.She assisted with creating my birth plan and ensuring that it was followed as best as could be during my delivery. She addressed concerns during laboring when I was unable to and needed to focus on labor management. The techniques that she provided to help contractions during labor was very successful and I progressed more once she arrived. To add, Monica arrived earlier than what was planned, with no hesistsnce, simply because I needed my doula assistance. Monica's dedication was shown throughout her service. I would highly recommend Monica and have her again as my doula!
