Becoming a doula was from a calling rooted in my deep desire to support and nurture others. As someone who has always been sensitive to the world around me, I understand how important it is to feel safe, seen, and empowered, especially during major life transitions. My journey as an artist, nature lover, and spiritual seeker has taught me the value of mindfulness, connection, and holistic well-being. I’ve spent years exploring different ways to express myself and make a meaningful impact, and stepping into the role of a doula feels like a natural extension of that. My philosophy as a doula is centered on creating a safe and empowering space for expecting mothers who often face unique challenges in the healthcare system. I believe in the power of intuition, self-advocacy, and holistic care, integrating mindfulness and emotional support into my practice. I want my work as a doula to help mothers feel heard, respected, and in control of their birthing experience. I also see birth as a deeply spiritual and transformative process, one that should be approached with reverence rather than fear. By combining my knowledge, natural empathy, and passion for well-being, I aim to guide and support mothers through one of the most powerful moments of their lives.

Hi there! I'm Jill, and I'm an IBCLC and a holistic sleep specialist. I work with families to get to the root of their feeding and/or sleep challenges. I accept several insurance plans and offer sliding scale pricing for out of network clients. Unique from other IBCLCs and sleep consultants, I work with families to help understand & address the root cause of their baby's night wakings without ANY form of separation-based sleep training. My approach centers attachment and is informed by neuroscience & infant brain development, as well as biological feeding norms. Because I specialized training in lactation care, oral function, and nutrition, I have helped hundreds of families identify missed (or dismissed) issues affecting sleep and improve their child's health & well-being for life.

Hello, my name is Jane Boyakjon, and I am a birth doula based in Highland, Michigan. I’ve been interested in birth and working with mothers since my internship with a local pregnancy center in high school. I considered being a doula for several years during college before getting my training in September of 2024. I am passionate about helping pregnant women release fear associated with birth, and help them prepare for it as much as possible. I believe the moment of birth can and should be one of connection, empowerment, and joy rather than chaos and stress. With the right tools and support, that vision can become a reality. I work to create an atmosphere of confidence, love, and advocacy for my clients during their journey to motherhood. In my free time, I enjoy sewing my own clothes, making ceramics in my home studio, and spending time outside in nature. Hope to connect with you soon! I can’t wait to make your birth an experience to remember. Lots of Doulove, ~Jane

Hi! My name is Alyssa I am a birth doula and living in southeast Michigan. I have always loved babies, caring for my friends, and giving my all and helping whenever they are pregnant, postpartum, or simply raising their families. I have always enjoyed being able to offer acts of service and support to others, and becoming a doula has helped me embrace this love language in so many new ways I never knew possible. With becoming a doula, my goal is to help support new families and moms by emotionally and physically supporting them through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Advocating for them with knowledge, and helping them make thought out decisions when needed in labor. I want to help every mom take back their birth and make it an experience they love to talk about and remember. As said in Isaiah chapter 66, verse 13, “As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you.” My goal as a doula is to hold the mother through every stage and be there for her and her family.

Alyssa was so supportive during my pregnancy and is still holding me up through post-partum and the newborn trenches. I was so thankful for her continued support during my labor when midwife and nurse shifts would change, she was a constant. I don’t think that my labor experience would have been as positive or would have gone as smoothly without Alyssa there to support me and my husband. I feel so appreciative of her support through this time in my life and I can honestly say that I gained a friend. 11/10 would recommend Alyssa to be your doula.

I'm Stephanie with Gentle Birthing, and my interest in birth work was awakened the day my first child was born in 2010 at home, surrounded by our midwife and birthing team. It was at that point I realized that more women need to know their birthing options. We had 4 more home water births in South Carolina before returning to Southeast Michigan where we welcomed our 6th child at home in 2020. I enjoy learning about the physiology of pregnancy and the process of giving birth and am fascinated with all the different natural coping techniques for pain management. With each of my own births, I implemented something new I had learned along the way. I hope to support expecting mothers in the ways I have received encouragement and support from the birth workers in my life. Their support changed the way I thought about birth and what I was capable of doing.

Stephanie was a great help to us as we prepared for the arrival of our fourth baby and during delivery as well.

Greetings! My name is Christine Scarlett. I am a former pediatric nurse and now a certified birth, sibling, and postpartum doula. I am also a Certified Lactation Counselor, Certified Educator of Infant Massage, and Gift Registry Advocate. Perhaps my best credential is being the mother of seven adult children and grandmother of many. I have had one cesarean, six VBAC’s, and sadly, one miscarriage. My personal experiences run the gamut of hospital, home, and waterbirth. I have many years of breastfeeding experience and do volunteer work in that field. I homeschooled for many years and still teach in a co-op one morning per week. Other specialties include cloth diapering, babywearing, healthy cooking, and even just laundry services. Contact me for a free interview to see if I can help you meet your unique goals.

Chris was absolutely wonderful to work with. She has a great bag of tools and a lot of knowledge & experience to help you achieve the birth you want. I had a hospital birth and really appreciated how she was gentle but firm on techniques and suggestions to help me to continue to process during labor. I also very much appreciated that she backed my birth plan at the hospital (and helped me compose it during pregnancy) and was a wonderful advocate for me. If I have anymore babies, she is someone I want on my birth team again! She has also been so encouraging and helpful postpartum.

Hey badass birthing warrior! I'm a mom of two tiny humans, a certified Birth Doula, Birth Photographer and Childbirth Educator serving expectant families throughout Southeast Michigan. I usually serve within an hour of Jackson, MI. I got my start in birth work by being a wedding and family photographer first. Then on Pinterest, I found birth photography photos and I thought it was beautiful. So I got into birth photography and was hooked. Then after I had my first kid, I took a birth doula training and realized that this was my calling. Not everyone has an empowering birth story and I want to help change the cultural attitude around birth by making them excited, (It's okay to be a little nervous!), confident and prepared for birth. Birth is a transformational experience for both the birthing person and their partner.

I am a certified Labor Doula, Postpartum and Infant Care Doula, and Lactation Specialist with over twenty combined years of professional and personal experience. I took the leap in 2020 during COVID to become certified and continue to educate myself regularly. My passion is supporting new families as they navigate pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum journey. As a mother of six and a proud Nana, my personal experiences have helped shape my deep commitment to empowering women during these most memorable, and sometimes vulnerable, moments of their lives. Even as a young mother, I was determined to understand every aspect of motherhood — learning extensively about what pregnancy entails, how childbirth transforms us, and for that brief moment why nature reminds us to pause. My dedication deepened in light of the alarming maternal mortality rates among women of color, which led me to become a Labor Doula. I quickly recognized the critical need for support after the baby came home and became a Postpartum Doula with a special focus on overnight care. I took action on my passion. I am honored to help families navigate the beginning of their new journey.
