Jasmine was my first doula experience. She assisted me with the birthing process of my husbands and i fourth child. Jasmine was very kind, gentle and available, she came prepared to help me in my birthing journey. Jasmine worked well with the hospital staff and made sure my needs were met. All in all she was great!

My passion for birthwork all began when I had a life changing experience with my third birth! I learned so much throughout my entire pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. I also had the pleasure of having a doula with me throughout my entire birth! Every expectant mother should have a doula! After seeing how much of a difference it made having all the education and tools to experience a completely different birth outcome for myself I went on to gain my certification so I can serve mothers through their journey. My mission is to help educate, equip, empower, support and advocate for women throughout their pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. Into a harmonious transition into motherhood!

Hi, I’m Paisley Wilson — a certified doula, loss mama, and the heart behind Gracious Beginnings Doula Care. After experiencing both the beauty and heartbreak of motherhood, I felt a deep calling to support families through every stage of their journey — from pregnancy and birth to postpartum and even loss. My approach is rooted in compassion, advocacy, and lived experience. I believe every family deserves to feel informed, empowered, and genuinely cared for. Whether you're preparing to welcome your baby, navigating postpartum, or honoring a precious life gone too soon, I’m here to walk with you — with grace, support, and open arms.

Working with Paisley from Gracious Beginnings Doula Care was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy. From the moment we connected, she made me feel seen, heard, and fully supported. Her calm presence, wealth of knowledge, and genuine care made such a difference — not only during labor but in the weeks leading up to it and after my baby arrived. She took the time to understand my birth preferences, helped me feel more confident and prepared, and was a true advocate when I needed it most. Postpartum, she checked in on me, helped me navigate those early newborn days, and reminded me to take care of myself too. You can tell that this work is deeply personal to her, and her passion shows in everything she does. I can’t recommend her enough — she’s more than a doula, she’s a gift.

Teshia Pasley

My name is Teshia, I am a DONA certified birth doula, PAIL advocate, Childhood educator, and nanny. As a faith-based doula, my approach to birth work is rooted in compassion, faith, and the belief that every birth is scared and should be a precious experience. I am an advocate of bringing faith, natural and traditional birth methods to mothers from the high risks population to black minorities. I am walking in my purpose to support and hold space for all mothers (inclusively) during pregnancy, birth, postpartum phase, and beyond. It is in my purpose to walk alongside my clients offering not only physical and emotional support, and resources, but also spiritual comfort with a sense of peace. I am experienced in hospital, home, and cesarean births. We will cover the "stages of labor," build the ideal birth plan, and encourage informed consent in any decision-making moment. I love creating the environment that would set the tone for any occasion, whether it be breastfeeding, relaxation, bonding time, or self-care spaces. I look forward to supporting you and your family😇

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Teshia during my pregnancy, birth and afterwards and I can't recommend her highly enough. As a first time mom, I was feeling overwhelmed and unsure of what to expect. From our first meeting, Teshia put me at ease with her warmth, knowledge, and clam presence. She took the time to understand my birth preferences, answer questions (and I had a lot) and support both me and my partner through every stage. Her support made a huge difference in helping me feel empowered, in control and equipped with the right information to make decisions. If you are looking for a doula who is compassionate, spiritual, reliable and deeply committed to your well-being and baby, Teshia is amazing to work with.

I’m Emily, a former teacher turned doula, finding it to be the perfect blend of my passions for supporting and caring for people, and my drive to make the parenthood journey more welcoming. Having two kids of my own, I understand just how much of a rollercoaster it is to have a child. Whether it is your first or any subsequent addition, the amount of uncertainty seemingly never ceases to remain. After enduring two high-risk pregnancies, I found how difficult it was to transition my thinking from the pregnancy journey to the postpartum journey. Even after this time, I still find sporadic difficulties with the multitude of facets of postpartum life. Understanding my own personal experiences, it is my ultimate passion to help make this transition as exciting as possible and to allow you and your family to enjoy this new phase as much as possible. With extensive personal experience and deep roots in the mental health field, I will provide you with the physical, mental, and emotional support you need to ease the nerves about the steps ahead. I look forward to meeting you where you are in your journey and being the support to help make this journey all the more exciting.

Peace Loves. I am Alicia Washington, wife, mother, custom clothing designer and doula. Born and raised in South Carolina where I also reside. I love to have fun, dance, spend time with family and friends and encourage others to be their true authentic selfs at all times. I am the sewing doula who well not only advocate for you, I’ll make the flyest outfit to do it in! For you too! My main goal as a doula is to educate and encourage women to have the birth that they desire and deserve.

I must say this was the best experience I’ve ever had. This was my first pregnancy and everything went so smooth. I reached out to Alicia because the Doula I had wasn’t doing a good job. I searched so long to find someone my spirit and baby agreed with. We found Alicia. We instantly clicked. She’s the big sister and friend I’ve always needed through a process like that. The questions I constantly had were answered immediately. If she was busy, she wouldn’t take long to get back with me. She’s overall the best person to go through this journey with. Very trusting and loving. If I have another child, she will be my go to. Everything was worth it!
