I’m so thankful we had Abby as our doula for our first pregnancy, especially since we had twins! Her reliance upon the Lord and knowledge and also emotional support made all the difference in our pregnancy and labor and delivery journey and also my recovery and our transition after! She did such a good job empowering my husband as well. I also appreciate that she provided food for me after the delivery, and afterward, she sent us our birth story from her perspective and also photos she’d taken during labor and delivery. If she hadn’t taken them, I wouldn’t have any photos of that special, sacred time! I highly recommend her services! You won’t regret it!

Nyamuoch Miak Birth & Postpartum Doula My name is Nyamuoch Miak, and I own Mama Seed Doula, LLC. I serve the Johnson County, Cedar Rapids, and William Burge area. I am married and blessed with four beautiful children. I have over ten years of experience working with children in school and childcare settings. I am drawn to birth work because of my passion for assisting birth parents and my love for newborns. I enjoy educating, supporting, connecting, and learning from parents and their newborns as they discover each other's needs and wants. I put birthing parents at the center of their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I listen and provide the physical, emotional, and educational support parents need to navigate the transition into parenthood confidently. I aim to give birthing parents and their families my undivided attention and the knowledge they need to make informed decisions unique to them. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, teaching my native language to my children, crocheting, and volunteering at our local church. My husband and I share a happy, busy life with our family and friends, and I love sharing our Sudanese cuisine with everyone!

We were incredibly lucky to have Nyamuoch for six weeks of postpartum night visits, and I can confidently say we could not have gotten through that time without her. As a second-time parent, I knew how challenging the postpartum period could be, which made Nyamuoch’s ability to put me completely at ease from our very first conversation especially meaningful. While I initially wondered how it would feel having someone in our home at night, her calm, reassuring presence immediately made me feel safe and supported, and I trusted her completely with my son, which is something I do not say lightly. Because of her, I got the most restful and restorative sleep I had postpartum, knowing my son was being cared for with such attentiveness, gentleness, and skill. She has an extraordinary way with babies and seemed to instinctively know exactly what he needed. Beyond that, she is a true wealth of knowledge, always offering thoughtful guidance, reassurance, and practical tips. She was also consistently reliable, thoughtful, and deeply professional in every interaction. Her care didn’t just help at night. It allowed me to show up as a better, more present parent during the day for my toddler. The difference that made for our entire family truly cannot be overstated. What stood out most was how deeply she cared, not just for our baby but for me as well. Even during a vulnerable and emotional time, she brought so much warmth and lightness. We shared so many laughs, and I genuinely looked forward to every visit with her. Nyamuoch played a huge role in making our second postpartum experience beautiful. Our family is better for having had her during that time, and I am endlessly grateful for her. I could not recommend her more highly.

Recent doula reviews near Dubuque

Shauna will be with me for every birth! As a FTM I don’t think I could have done it without her. Her care transformed my birth story. During pregnancy she was constantly checking in on me. During labor, her support got me through the toughest back contractions and 54 hours of labor. The best part of having Shauna on my team was the postpartum support. She again was constantly checking in on me and baby. She answered all of my questions with care and love. You want Shauna on your side!

— Taylor Hawrysko, review of Shauna Davis August 2026

Shauna was absolutely amazing throughout our entire birth experience, and we truly could not have asked for a better doula. From the very beginning, she was supportive, caring, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She made us feel comfortable, heard, and reassured every step of the way. One of the things I am most grateful for was how Shauna helped make sure our voices were heard. When I was sent for an early induction at 37 weeks—something I personally felt wasn’t necessary—Shauna never made the decision for me. Instead, she helped me understand my options, ask the right questions, advocate for myself, and feel confident in making an informed decision that felt right for me and my family. She gave me the confidence to recognize when I was no longer comfortable with my provider and office and ultimately make the difficult decision to leave and seek care elsewhere. That decision led us to an incredible experience with our second provider and hospital, where we felt respected, supported, and truly listened to. I honestly don’t know if I would have had the confidence to make that change without Shauna’s guidance and support. She supported not only me, but my husband as well, making sure we both felt confident, informed, and involved throughout the entire process. Her calm presence, compassion, and ability to advocate alongside us made such a meaningful difference. Shauna went above and beyond for our family, and we will always be grateful that she was there during such an important and emotional time in our lives. She helped us feel empowered rather than overwhelmed, and she reminded us that we deserved to have a voice in our own birth experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shauna to anyone looking for a doula who is compassionate, knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in her clients. She was an incredible part of our journey, and we will always appreciate everything she did for us. ❤️

— Himali Patel, review of Shauna Davis August 2026

It’s been such a comfort to have Maggie’s support these past few weeks with our (preemie) newborn! My husband and I have been able to nap and run errands knowing our daughter is in great care. My only change is that I wish we would’ve connected with Maggie sooner in postpartum!
