Hi! My name is Witley Smith! I started my birth doula journey in November of 2024. Ever since I was young I have always loved helping mothers care for their babies. Once I learned about birth doulas I knew that is what I was meant to do! I want to help mamas have a joyous birth experience. I have completed the training for my Birth Doula Certification along with my Lactation Support Certification. I am currently in the process of becoming a DONA International affiliate. I am trained, but I need experience of being the primary Birth Doula in order to complete my application with DONA. I am looking for mamas who are willing to let me serve them, and support them through their beautiful birth. My services will be discounted as I am a new doula looking for experience. I chose the name Serving Dreams Birth Doula Services, because I believe every mother should be served the birth she has always dreamed. No need or want for a mother is too small or frivolous. I want to make my mamas feel comforted, supported, and empowered. My favorite quote that I have learned through my birth doula journey is "You grow the baby you were meant to birth".

I am a Birth and Full Spectrum Doula who was professionally trained and certified in person with a local doula village in Madison, WI. I served local families before I moved to Harrisonburg this summer after getting married. I excited to serve this beautiful community! I am a Reiki Master Teacher and Herbal Healer who offers holistic approaches to ongoing healing. As a doula, I advocate for sovereign birthing and respects the choices of the family. Whether you desire to birth at home, a hospital, a birth center, need postpartum or loss support, I will be there with you every step of the way and beyond!

I am a mom of four beautiful arrows and have been gifted with a passion for birth. I am completely enamored with the design of every birth being an individual experience for each woman, baby, and family. Every new life is brought into the world in their own way.

I decided I wanted to Start my birthworker journey, when my unmedicated natural birth turned into a emergency C-section. Even though, I had labored at a birth center with 2 midwives. The decides to transfer me after several days of prodromal labor. My experience at the hospital was very traumatic, and left me unaware and sad. I didn’t have anyone to talk to about my experience. But my doula encouraged me to talk about it. I realized I wanted to be for other pregnant women and make a difference in how we care for pregnant women during and after their pregnancy. As a POC birthworker, I am dedicated to help women of all walks connect better with their bodies and babies,throughout their pregnancy and postpartum journey.my mission is to prepare women by educating them about their birth rights, pregnancy/labor & medical interventions.I want women to feel more empowered and confident in every aspect about their birth. I am determined to increase awareness of birthing trauma; even more so, for women of color. I believe if we implement the holistic approach of our ancestors, entitled to the birthing mother, we can create a meaningful and powerful birth experience every time.

I recently became a mother in 2020 and to be honest, I didn’t have a great birth experience. Which is pretty normal. Until I learned that it didn’t have to be this way, which inspired my passion for birth work. I want birthing people to be empowered in their births and have the best experience possible. I approach birth holistically, and I feel honored to be able to share years of expertise with birthing people and their families in the NOVA and Richmond area. ​ Every woman deserves to have someone there to guide and assist them in making educated choices about their pregnancy, and remind them that they can trust the strength of their bodies during this time.
