Gentarra was an incredible source of support throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum experience. From our first meeting, she took the time to listen to my concerns, answer questions, and help me feel informed and confident about my birth plan. Her calm presence, encouragement, and knowledge made a tremendous difference during labor, helping me feel supported and empowered every step of the way. Gentarra was professional, compassionate, and responsive whenever I needed guidance or reassurance. She advocated for my preferences while working collaboratively with my healthcare team, and her emotional and physical support helped create a positive birth experience for both me and my family. I would highly recommend Gentarra to any expecting parent looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and dependable doula. Her dedication and genuine passion for supporting families shine through in everything she does.

Kyliah Thompson

Kyliah is a trained Doula and Social Worker in the Twin Cities. She is currently an Elementary School Social Worker in North St. Paul. Although originally from the Chicagoland area, Kyliah has lived in different parts of the Midwest including St. Louis, MO and Duluth, MN. She is trained clinically as a Social Worker and brings all of her skills of advocacy, empathy, relationship-building, client focused care, and empowerment to her role as a Doula. Having worked in so many communities here in the Twin Cities and with survivors of violence while in St. Louis, Kyliah recognizes the importance of upholding one’s individual story and experience no matter where their journey has taken them. She came to birthwork recognizing the significant disparities in care for Black and Brown birthing families and wanting to provide care that is accessible and acknowledges history and culture. As a Doula, Kyliah is trained in Perinatal Mental Health, Hypnobirthing, Grief and Reproductive Loss, and currently finishing a training on supporting body mechanics in pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Kyliah prioritizes ensuring that the families she supports feel safe not only physically, but emotionally as well as during their birthing times and beyond. She is trained and immersed in providing trauma sensitive care, child development, and mental wellness and believes it is ESSENTIAL to provide cultural conscious and congruent care that values and uplifts identity and experience. In her free time, you can find Kyliah binge watching her favorite tv shows, cooking or trying out new restaurants, or hanging out with her husband and dog, lovingly known as “Baby Moon”.

I’m Emily. I love working as a full spectrum doula, helping empower moms to give birth with confidence, recover confidently and be the amazing moms they already are. Compassion and empathy are two of my greatest strengths and I have a passion for providing emotional support for women as they go through one of the most life changing seasons they will ever experience. I grew up in Placerville, California and moved in 2022 to Lexington, South Carolina where I now live with my parents, one sister and three adorable cats. I grew up helping take care of my aging grandparents. We were always serving them in some capacity whether it was entertaining my grandpa with dementia by working on a puzzle with him, cleaning up the kitchen, or chopping up fallen tree branches on the property. When I am not working I love to volunteer to serve at church, sing in the choir, paint, and cuddle with my kitties. I also enjoy spending time with my family and with my best friend John who, like me, has high functioning autism. We enjoy getting to know each other’s quirks and understanding things about each other that most people wouldn’t get. Words are not his strength, but I enjoy learning to use my emotional intelligence skills to read through the lines when he can’t put what he means into words. Being that person that can understand him in a way most people can’t means the world to me. These are some of the things that have kindled my passion to work as a doula. Seeing people’s physical and relational and emotional needs and doing the absolute best I can to fulfill them brings me joy and satisfaction that I am doing what I do best and using my unique skills to be a blessing to other people and to glorify God who gave me these skills!

The BEST support i could have received for my labor 4 years ago. She was calm and supportive the whole time even when I started freaking out. And she is so informative about pregnancy. I learned so much from her. 10/10
