Paula is a world-class caregiver. Our baby girl had the best care, and we felt totally taken care of and trust her fully. In addition to being so loved and happy, our baby is sleeping perfectly through the night and has been since the day Paula left! In addition, she took excellent care of mom and helped me navigate breastfeeding and night care. I can't say enough positive things about Paula - families are lucky to work with her.

Hello, I’m Michelle Steele. I’m a birth doula and a licensed massage therapist. I decided to become a birth doula when I could not receive any answers to my questions during my pregnancy. I want to be able to assist all women to get the answers they deserve. As a massage therapist I understand that the body works as a whole and not sections. When I’m not supporting families I am supporting my daughter.

Recent review

My husband and I delivered our first child November of 2022 with the help of Maya. Our family was truly blessed to have her as our doula. She met with us before delivering, supported us during delivery, and met with us after delivery. During pregnancy, Maya knew I wanted to breastfeed and sent me information on breastfeeding as well as a class. During delivery, Maya made sure my needs were heard and met. She made sure my voice did not go unheard and made both my health and my family’s health the number one priority. She helped to make my birth experience peaceful and amazing. I was terrified to deliver a child but Maya quickly made all those fears go away. We definitely plan to use Maya again and highly recommend her!

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 a certified full-spectrum doula based in DFW, Texas. Trained by Birth Advocacy Doula Trainings as a Full Spectrum Birthworker (BADT; F-CSD), I’ve served as a full spectrum doula since 2018. My focus is families and individuals that identify as BIPOC, LGBTQI+, formally/currently incarcerated, and individuals without strong support systems. I believe in holistic support, including utilizing evidence-based practices and incorporating ancestral practices to have a birth experience you deserve.

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!

Jordan Towns

My name is Jordan Towns and I have served the role as an Emotional Support Coach/Companion for over two decades to women and men encountering a full range of life encounters. It was in Spring 2023 that my journey to become a Doula was initiated and what a journey indeed it has been. Marked by my strong ancestral roots and divine gifting coupled with an experience that allowed me to grow deeper in tune with my body as a woman and what it means to be empowered and supported in my connection to it, I moved to become a Birth Doula and completed my formal training with Doulas of North America International in the “Art of Labor Support.” Now I have the honor of providing continuous, culturally appropriate support, non-medical advice, and physical comfort coaching to women and their partners during pregnancy, the birth ceremony, and the adjustment period after. It is this support that is critical to counter systemic medical racism and socioeconomic barriers that families face. I am currently offering to women who would like to birth at home donation-based services.

Jordan was an absolute amazing support person. She listened to what my wants and needs were. Jordan was open and understanding of my wants and through conversations she recalled details I mentioned. She reassured me as I was going through the labor process and even made me feel extremely comfortable and confident. I honestly can’t say enough about her to describe how amazing she was and how smooth she made the process. Very professional and at the same time humble. I highly recommend her! 100/10

Orion Clements

Orion Clements

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!
