I am beyond grateful for the incredible support and guidance I received from Dana in the early days of my breastfeeding journey. Right after birth, we faced several challenges—including low milk production, latch difficulties, my baby’s slow weight gain, and eventually a diagnosis of cow’s milk protein intolerance. Through it all, Dana met us with patience, encouragement, and genuine compassion. She not only offered practical solutions and expert knowledge, but also created a space where I felt heard and supported during a vulnerable and emotional time. Her presence helped me build the confidence I needed to keep going, even when it all felt incredibly overwhelming. Now, nearly 10 months later, I’m so proud to say we are still breastfeeding—and thriving. The benefits to both me and my baby have been remarkable: a deep bond, strong immunity for my little one, and significant cost savings (especially considering how expensive hypoallergenic formulas are!). I truly believe we wouldn’t be where we are today without Dana’s dedication and support.

I can't speak highly enough about Shaniqua. She is warm, extremely knowledgeable, and puts you at total ease. Shaniqua was both my L&D doula and postpartum doula for my first born. I was ridiculously anxious about all things childbirth and newborn care, and Shaniqua was my number 1 support. She is a baby whisperer and absolutely loves her job. It is rare to find people that are so good at what they do. I recommend her to every one I know. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Shaniqua, don't hesitate to book her!!

Hi, I’m Jenette I’m a wife, and a mother of seven. I’m honored to be someone you can count on during one of the most important moments of your life. I truly understand the strength, courage, and love that birth brings out in you. My own birth experiences showed me just how powerful it is to have someone calm, loving, and experienced by your side—someone who really sees you, supports you, and stays with you through every moment. With 14 years of personal and professional experience, I bring certified expertise as a Full-Spectrum Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, Lactation Counselor, and Medical Assistant to every family I support. I combine compassionate care with solid knowledge. But even more than my certifications, it’s my personal birth journey, struggles, and life lessons that shape how I support you. I understand the strength and vulnerability that birth brings, and I use that understanding to comfort and empower every family I work with. I take a holistic approach to care, supporting the whole mother and family—physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Whether you’re birthing in a hospital or at home, my goal is to help you feel informed, empowered, and spiritually grounded throughout your journey. Hospital Births I help you navigate policies while advocating for your natural, informed choices, ensuring you feel confident and respected in every decision. Home Births I provide full support and education so you and your family feel prepared, nurtured, and fully supported in the birth experience you desire. I also help partners and loved ones feel involved, informed, and confident in their roles. Together, we create a loving, supportive space for everyone as you welcome your baby. I approach every birth with reverence and prayerfulness, walking with you as your steady advocate and calm guide. My goal is to help you find strength, peace, and confidence, no matter how your birth unfolds. Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, or something in between, I want to help you feel prepared, empowered, and truly supported every step of the way. I offer both virtual and in-person support, so no matter where you are, you can receive thoughtful, compassionate care tailored to your family. Postpartum Support After birth, I’m still here. I provide breastfeeding support, newborn care guidance, and a listening ear, walking with you through the postpartum period and helping your family transition with confidence and care. Choosing your birth support is deeply personal. If you want someone who will stand by your side with kindness, skill, and faith, I would be honored to be there for you. Let’s walk this beautiful journey together with Shiphrah Birth & Beyond.

10 years of experience

Hi all mamas, I’m Tara and I’m certain I’m the right doula for you and your growing family. I’m a mother of three beautiful children and I’ve experienced three very different births personally: medicated with epidural, all natural, and an emergency c section. I also breastfed each child for over a year and offer lactation support postpartum. I fully understand the physical, emotional and spiritual challenges of pregnancy, childbirth and early motherhood. I believe a new version of the mother is born along with the babies. I’m here to advocate for you, to support you and your personal goals. The fear of the unknown is lesser when we know someone really has our back and I will be that person for you. I’ve been an unofficial doula and breastfeeding guru for friends and family for years. You will not have to do any of this alone. I’ll hold your hand, your legs lol and your baby.

I cannot recommend Tara highly enough as a doula. From the moment we met, her warmth and compassion were evident, and she made me feel completely at ease throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum period. Tara was always available to answer my questions, no matter how trivial they seemed, and her knowledge and expertise were truly invaluable. During labor, Tara's calming presence and practical support made a significant difference. She helped me with breathing techniques, provided comforting massages, and continuously offered words of encouragement. Her ability to anticipate my needs and respond with such care was incredible. It felt like she was reading my mind at times! One moment that stands out is when I was feeling particularly overwhelmed during labor. Tara suggested a change in position and guided me through it, which made a world of difference in my comfort and progress. Her suggestions were always spot-on, and she worked seamlessly with the medical staff to ensure that my birth plan was respected. Postpartum, Tara continued to be a pillar of support. She checked in regularly, offering helpful advice on breastfeeding and newborn care, and was always there to lend an empathetic ear. Her support made the transition into motherhood much smoother, and I felt so much more confident knowing I had her by my side. Overall, Tara's dedication, professionalism, and genuine care set her apart. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as my doula. I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable, and compassionate doula.
