Hi friend! I am one of the co-founders of The Village Doulas, a group of birth work and child care experts. We aim to create a village around all parents to help them thrive. My background is in Pediatric Nursing and special education, ranging from wellness pediatric care to a specialized ventilator unit, I have seen a lot! I have known for a long time it is my calling and blessing to help others raise their babies. I believe all of my experiences led me to be doing that as a doula today! I can't wait to get to know you!

I started thinking about hiring a night nurse or nanny before I even got pregnant again, but never in a million years did I think I would actually meet someone I felt like I could truly trust with my baby (especially after suffering severe postpartum anxiety with my first) - that was until I met with Kinsey. I immediately felt a connection with her and after chatting for a bit, knew without a doubt I could count on her to care for my baby. Not only did she have the right background, but hearing her “why” behind starting this business helped seal the deal for me. Kinsey truly has a passion for not only caring for babies, but us mamas as well. After Kinsey left our interview, my husband and I decided to sign a 6 week contract with her. During those 6 weeks, she was unavailable for 2 of them due to traveling (this was disclosed ahead of time during our meeting). She let me know she had a couple other options for us to cover for her during that time, although she was the only pediatric RN. Kinsey knew how much this put me at ease, and she even asked if I wanted to meet one of her colleagues at her doctors office to cover for her, which I thought was very thoughtful! However, I decided I would still like to meet her business partner, Kati and see how I felt. Fast forward to my meeting with Kati, and once again, the moment I met her I felt an instant trust and connection. It was within minutes that I knew I could count on her to cover for Kinsey while she was out of town. 6 weeks later, our contract was up and we decided to renew with Kinsey for an additional month. Of course, shortly after signing, our little guy decided he wanted to pretty much sleep through the night (which I also attribute to Kinsey helping with)! While this was amazing for us, it was also a little frustrating as we juuuust extended our contract. However, Kinsey made sure we were still benefitting from her services at this time. She was not only flexible when it came to days/times, but she helped me with so many projects on my to-do list that I just could never get to caring for a toddler and a newborn - and she put genuine effort and thought into the help too! She helped me with an amazing toy rotation/organization system for my toddler, meal prepped quick and easy meals and snacks for her that I could freeze, and even helped me update all of our photo frames in the living room. Whether she was doing overnight sleep care or something else for us, she truly wanted to make sure she was helping to make this postpartum period as stress free as possible for us as a family. I truly believe that because of Kinsey (and Kati), I escaped postpartum anxiety fueled by lack of sleep this time around. I was able to truly enjoy the newborn stage as a well rested mom without feeling utterly exhausted for months on end like I did the first time around. I was able to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to actually enjoy the day with both my newborn and my 2 year old. My husband and I weren’t snapping on each other from being so tired and waking up all night with a fussy baby. While I know it is a bit of a luxury to be able to hire this kind of help, it is worth every.single.penny. Whether you already have the funds to do it or you have to make certain sacrifices to do it, I’d recommend Kinsey and her services a MILLION times over. You just can’t put a price on rest and mental health (especially during those first few months) and having someone you can truly trust to care for your baby is priceless. 10/10 would recommend Kinsey and The Village Doulas.

As a certified birth doula, I'm passionate about supporting families through the incredible journey of childbirth. Being bilingual in Spanish and English allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients, ensuring everyone feels understood and supported. As a Latina Mexican American, I’m deeply committed to reproductive justice and making sure that every birthing person, regardless of gender, feels safe and respected. My goal is to provide inclusive care that honors each person’s unique experience. When I’m not working, I’m a full-time mom who loves to volunteer and give back to the community. I have a special interest in human milk and chestfeeding, and I’m dedicated to helping parents navigate this important aspect of early parenting. I also enjoy educating parents on safe co-sleeping practices and cloth diapering. Additionally, I offer free emotional support for those considering or undergoing abortions, ensuring they have the compassionate care they need. If there’s something I don’t know, I’ll find the right expert for you. In my downtime, you can often find me enjoying a green tea matcha oat latte with lavender honey, my favorite treat. I’m all about creating a warm, welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and empowered.

Hi there! I’m Destiny! I’m a Columbus native, wife, proud mom to a sweet 3-year-old, and career childcare professional with over a decade of experience. My background spans several different areas of childcare, from my career as a private nanny and founding my own event childcare company, Social Sitters, to doula work, postpartum support, and newborn care. Since 2020, I’ve found a special passion for supporting families through the newborn and postpartum stages, which is where I’m choosing to now focus my expertise. As both a mother and childcare professional, I understand firsthand how exciting, yet overwhelming, the transition into parenthood can be. While I bring years of knowledge and hands on experience, my goal is to ultimately support and empower parents to feel confident in the choices that work best for them and their little ones. I pride myself on offering a warm, down to earth approach to care without compromising the professionalism and respect every family deserves. I look forward to connecting with your family!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the care and support I received during my postpartum experience. Having my first baby was one of the most beautiful, emotional, and overwhelming experiences of my life, and having such a supportive person made all the difference. From the moment I gave birth, I felt cared for, heard, and supported. The postpartum period comes with so many new emotions, questions, and adjustments, especially as a first-time mom. The kindness, patience, encouragement, and reassurance I received helped me feel more confident and comfortable as I navigated motherhood for the first time. I truly appreciated how much Destiny took the time to check on me, answer my questions, and make sure both my baby and I were doing well. I never felt like I was just another patient. I felt genuinely cared for as a new mother during such a special and vulnerable time in my life. I will always be grateful for the compassion and support I received. Those first moments of motherhood are something I will remember forever, and having such a positive postpartum experience made them even more special. Thank you for making my transition into motherhood a little easier and for treating me with so much care and kindness!
