After watching all of the beautiful and peaceful homebirths I was very disappointed that I was advised to go to the hospital due to my son being measured too small during my third trimester. After spending a night there I got very nervous and anxious and didn't quite know how it was all going to work out, as I was hell-bent on wanting a natural birth without being pushed by the Gynaecologist to induce my contractions. And in walks the lovely Chelsea...a clinical doula, something I knew existed (a doula) just not provided as a service in the hospital! Chelsea and I instantly connected and with her soft and sweet voice she helped me with breathing exercises, taking my mind away from the intense extractions. She even brought her own natural coconut oil with which she massaged all the areas that hurt or simply needed the pressure. She also spoke with the Gynaecologist and reassured my contractions we're coming every 10/5 minutes or so, which gave us the opportunity to initiate my labour naturally. I heard lots of horrible birth stories, especially those in hospitals, but I can honestly say I had an absolute wonderful birth thanks to Chelsea. Truly a gift from above to may have had you there with me. Both my partner and mother still ask about her and would love to see her again. We are eternally grateful for her and wish her all the best!

My name is Kristen Gaither and I'm a certified birth doula. I trained in 2021 with Jamaa Birth Village in Ferguson and again in 2024 with Childbirth International. My passion for supporting birth came after the birth of my second daughter, when I experienced an overwhelmingly peaceful and powerful birth. Though my own experience led me to this work, my goal isn't to recreate an experience, but to help you discover the information and desires that bring you empowerment and peace throughout the process. Outside of doula work, my background is in social work, college ministry, and non-profit work. When I'm not supporting families, I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids, seeing live music, and deep conversations over good coffee.

I cannot say enough good things about Kristen! She checked every box and helped me have the birth I had always hoped for. From the support she gave me to the way she included and cared for my fiancé, she made us both feel comfortable, supported, and confident. Kristen has such a calm, reassuring presence, and you can tell she knows what she’s doing. During such a vulnerable and important experience, having someone you trust beside you makes all the difference. I felt cared for, heard, and never alone. Everything went beautifully, and she did not fall short in any way. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate doula who truly cares about you and your birth experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Kristen. I will always be grateful that she was part of bringing our baby into the world! ??

You deserve support and care that aligns with your goals and considers your needs and desires to yours and your baby’s greatest wellbeing.

As a doula, I am here to support you concerning your own well being and trusting that you know what is best for your family. I work closely with you using informed choices, culturally appropriate and collaborative model of care. I support your right to make conscious choices, providing ongoing education, and work with you to plan your individual preferences in a nonjudgmental and loving way.

Marisol was the most knowledgeable, compassionate, and helpful doula one could ask for. She was there for me most my pregnancy and in labor. Whenever I had questions, especially being a first pregnancy she always had answers and gave me peice of mind. I had horrible back pain and she suggested several stretches and exercises that I could do on my own and some that my husband could help with and they were really helpful in relieving pregnancy pains. My labor started right when she finished with another labor and she was there for me full of energy. She would ask the nurse to bring me items like a peanut ball, a mirror, or dimming the lights to help me get though labor pains and to feel as comfortable as possible. She always had a very calm voice and touch. I would highly recommend using Marisol as your doula. There is so much information and helpful tips she as a doula will provide for pregnancy, labor, post partum and breastfeeding that is not provided by your OBGYN

Hi! I'm Natasha, a mother of 2 daughters and a birth doula serving the St. Louis, Missouri area and the Metro East area in Southern Illinois since 2021. I like to have a holistic approach to the pregnancy and birth experience. I like to focus on nutrition and positioning techniques during pregnancy to help minimize end-of-pregnancy concerns and labor challenges. I started my doula journey shortly after my first born because I wanted to help other families to know that they do have a voice that matters. Having a cesarean myself, then a HBAC, I have a unique perspective on the difference of each of those experiences. I learned the importance of having the proper support, the right to informed choice and the resources to have a positive pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. That is what I hope I can provide to my community.

Natasha rocks! What a Godsend!! She was so incredible to work with, and I really can't recommend her enough. From the beginning, she was super respectful about our desires for birth. And she was always easy to get a hold of with any questions I had. Her prenatal visits really helped us prepare for the mental and physical aspects of birth. She gave us so much good information, even for postpartum. Natasha was great tor showing my husband how to support me too! When labor started, Natasha was so loving and helpful with all my first-time momma nerves. She met me at my house during early labor and followed us to the hospital when I was ready. Before I could be admitted, the hospital required me to consent to a cervical check. I did, but the check was not done well and I refused getting another. The doctor kept pressing me to do another while I was bawling in pain, working through hard contractions every minute by that time. Natasha very respectfully and tactfully stood up for me, and I'll never forget that. As I was admitted and continued to labor, Natasha supported me so well. I seriously couldn't have asked for a more amazing doula. The whole time, I felt as though she genuinely cared for us and supported our goals for birth. I'm so glad she was by my side!

I met Jacquelyne and Sarah when I was 34 weeks pregnant with my son. Even though I was so far along, it felt like I had know them my whole pregnancy. We connected so well and they both made me feel like family. When i tell you they would do anything for their girls, i mean they would do ANYTHING for their girls. Even if it means coming over to massage you several times just because they know your body is aching and they want to help you rest better without you even having to ask them! They are so kind, gentle, honest, and generous with their time. They are so passionate about mommas and babies and it is so evident in every area of their lives. My birth didn’t go as planned, but they both comforted me and made me feel like I could do anything. even in the face of a mountain of fear. I couldn’t have done it without them. I am forever grateful for these beautiful women. I want them to be there for all of my babies!!! Also, RUN DO NOT WALK to having Sarah as your photographer!!! She is AMAZING! Every picture captures so much emotion and her editing is phenomenal!

Hello! I'm a specialized postpartum doula with a passion for holistic well-being and a heart committed to supporting mothers on their unique journeys. My approach to postpartum care is a blend of researched practices and traditions that promote both physical and mental healing. My belief is simple yet profound – healing involves the mind, body, and soul, nurtured through compassionate support, nourishing food, and the space to rest. I am dedicated to helping moms recover faster, become stronger, and feel their absolute best, empowering them to be the best parents they can be. My personal postpartum struggles guided me on my path into the world of postpartum care. Turning my challenges into an opportunity to support others, I am dedicated to meeting moms where they are in their postpartum journey and helping them achieve their goals. I've learned a lot of practical knowledge through my postpartum journeys – breastfeeding all three of my children, tandem nursing twins, using cloth diapers, creating homemade baby food, and embracing baby wearing, that I am eager to share. I love helping moms integrate these practices into their lives. I am passionate about holistic practices, but am also comfortable around modern medicine. My approach is rooted in understanding and respecting each family's choices. My strengths shine brightest when engaging with mothers – whether it's during heartfelt conversations, changing diapers, or bringing nourishing meals. I hope to create a calming, caring, and supportive space that shines light on the path of each mother I have the opportunity to support.
