I am a birth doula and Childbirth Educator. My doula business was birthed after having my own natural home birth after having two cesareans. I was uneducated about a lot of things regarding birth; so I hired a doula who guided me through the entire process. I was so enamored with my birth, that I felt compelled and called to do this work. I love educating and guiding moms and families through their birth journeys. I absolutely love doing what I was called to do and look forward to being your comfort and peace during your birth!

Hi, I’m Andrea Carter—founder of It Takes a Village, midwife, mother, and passionate birth advocate. Originally from Gary, Indiana, I made Dallas my home in 2015. Though I dreamed of becoming an OB/GYN as a child, it was my own powerful birth experiences that led me to step into the world of natural birth and begin my journey as a doula in 2016. ​Since then, I’ve had the honor of walking alongside over 160 families as a doula and supporting more than 300 families as a student midwife. I am a proud 2023 graduate of Southwest Technical College, and today I serve families as a staff midwife at Swiss Avenue Birth and Wellness Center, in addition to offering homebirth services throughout the DFW metroplex.​ ​ ​​ As a mother of four—each born naturally—I understand the beauty, strength, and vulnerability of birth firsthand. My mission is to educate and support families so they feel confident, heard, and empowered to make the choices that are right for them. I’ve attended a wide range of births, including VBACs, breech births, and twins, and I bring a calm, grounded presence to every birth space. My Philosophy of Birth I believe that birth is a sacred, physiological process—not something to be managed, but to be supported. Every birthing person deserves compassionate, respectful, and individualized care that centers their voice, values, and vision. I trust the innate wisdom of the body and believe that, with the right support and information, families can birth in power and peace—however that looks for them. Whether in a birth center or at home, I honor each family’s unique journey and hold space for their strength to unfold. At It Takes a Village, you’re not just receiving care—you’re gaining a trusted partner who honors your vision for birth and walks beside you every step of the way.

I am excited to express my interest in the Night Doula/Night Nanny position. With four years of hands-on childcare experience—including dedicated night nanny work—I’ve supported families with newborns, infants, and children up to 5 years old, including twins. Caring for little ones during those tender nighttime hours has become something I truly love and take pride in. I have a strong background in establishing healthy sleep routines, soothing newborns, supporting feeding schedules (breast- and bottle-fed), and helping parents feel confident and rested. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, gentleness, and intuition—especially at night when babies need calm, consistent care. I also bring a reliable, nurturing presence that helps families feel secure and supported while they recharge. I would be honored to support your family and bring my professionalism, warmth, and dedication to your home. Thank you so much for considering me. I would love the opportunity to discuss how I can help your household thrive.

Hiring Ar’Monni as our night doula was one of the best decisions we made. She brought such calm, patience, and understanding into our home. Our newborn slept better, we slept better, and the whole house felt more at peace. She was attentive, dependable, and incredibly gentle with our baby. We trusted her completely from day one. Truly a lifesaver during those exhausting early weeks! Highly, highly recommend her services.

My doula did an amazing job supporting my birth. I was anxious throughout the process, but they were so patient and attentive. Their calm presence helped me feel empowered to make decisions that felt right for me and my family. I truly appreciated their care and guidance—couldn't have asked for better support!

Ariana came highly recommended. We loved having Ariana as our night nanny!! She cared for my twins. So gentle and patient even on the roughest nights!! She kept up with their feeding schedule. Me and my husband were able to sleep and work without having to worry. She’s the best of the best. We recommend her for anyone needing help with an infant, twins, etc.

I have a strong passion for helping families achieve the birth they desire to have and I believe that education is pivotal. My ultimate goal is to help you feel empowered, to help you have a voice in the decision making process, and for you to feel peace with your birthing experience. I provide unbiased, non-judgemental support during pregnancy, birth, and the immediate post-partum period to families from all walks of life for this reason. I would be honored to serve you and your family during this time.

During the time, Ayanna was my doula, I was very thankful for her. She is very knowledgeable in her practice, and keeps a professional composure. She is trust worthy, and was a huge help during my last trimester (when I met Ayanna). I am grateful for her during pre-labor, during labor, and postpartum. I still buy her yoni herbs, which I enjoy. It really helps with soreness and inflammation, which is due to coitus. I love that she provides brochures full of information about each product she promotes. I trust her products, as they are holistic and natural. She does not compromise her ethics, nor her core values.

My name is Orion Clements, the forerunner of Clements Doula Services, and I’m a Madriella Certified Birth Doula serving the DFW area. I decided to become a doula early in 2024 after realizing how much I wanted a career in helping others during some of the most vulnerable times of their lives. I believe in a God that creates peace and order, and wanted to be someone who could embody that for others. Funny enough, shortly after deciding to pursue this career, I found out I was pregnant with my son! Going through that experience, along with training I think really shaped my own doula philosophy. To me, it doesn’t matter if you desire a medicated or natural birth, or even if things don’t go exactly as planned. What matters to me as your doula is if YOU feel empowered, educated, and as supported as possible during this experience. If that is what you’re seeking out of a doula, then I would love to come alongside you!
