I became a postpartum and infant care doula because I believe every family deserves compassionate, knowledgeable support during the tender postpartum period. Parenthood is a profound transition, and I am passionate about helping families navigate those early days with confidence and ease. With experience in newborn care, sleep shaping, feeding support, and emotional well-being, I strive to create a nurturing space where parents feel heard, empowered, and well-rested. My approach is rooted in evidence-based care, gentle guidance, and a deep respect for each family’s unique journey. Whether offering hands-on newborn care, soothing techniques, or simply a reassuring presence, my goal is to ease the overwhelm so parents can focus on bonding with their baby. It’s an honor to walk alongside families during such a special and transformative time.

As a dedicated and compassionate doula, I bring a nurturing, attentive, and patient presence to every birth I support. My calm, understanding, and loving nature helps create a safe and empowering environment for clients during one of the most transformative moments of their lives. As a mother of three, my personal journey through childbirth has deeply shaped my approach—I know firsthand how vital it is to feel supported, heard, and advocated for. Having experienced birth without that advocacy, I’m fiercely committed to ensuring my clients never feel alone. With lived experience and heartfelt care, I walk beside each family, honoring their choices and helping them feel confident and cared for throughout their birthing journey.

What an amazing experience from beginning to end. This was my 3rd deliver so I thought I knew exact I was doing, I didn't! Kenneisha was amazing. Very attentive, professional, knowledgeable, calming, and reassuring. She listened to and incorporated everything I wanted and more! I purchased the biggest package she offered and it was well worth it. I wish I knew about her with my other 2 births!

My name is Jennifer, and I am a free-spirited mother, creative, and birth worker dedicated to empowering families through the transformative journey of birth. My passion for emancipated birth stems from my belief that every birthing person deserves to feel autonomous, supported, and informed during this sacred process. Birth is not just a medical event; it’s a deeply personal and spiritual rite of passage that reflects the power and resilience of the human body and soul. As a full-spectrum doula, I am committed to walking alongside families at every stage of their reproductive journey, from conception and pregnancy to postpartum and beyond. I strive to create a safe and affirming space where families feel seen and heard, especially those from underserved communities. My work is grounded in advocacy, education, and holistic care, integrating evidence-based practices with traditional healing methods, such as herbalism and energy work, to honor the unique needs of each family. My own experiences as a mother and herbalist have deepened my understanding of the profound connection between our bodies, minds, and the natural world. These experiences inspire me to guide others in reclaiming their power, trust, and intuition in birth and parenting. Being a birthworker is not just my profession—it is my calling. I am honored to contribute to the growing movement for birth justice, where every family is supported in bringing life into the world with dignity, choice, and love.

Hey! I'm Nandi, and supporting families during their birthing journeys is not just my profession—it’s my calling. My passion for birth work stems from witnessing the strength and resilience of birthing people and my desire to create spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and empowered. I’ve had the honor of working as a doula in various settings, from hospitals like Wellstar to community-based programs like Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies. Each experience has deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, personalized care that honors each family’s unique story. Here’s what you can expect when we work together: - Connection: I take the time to get to know you and your family, so I can support your physical, emotional, and informational needs. - Advocacy: Whether it's navigating hospital policies or exploring comfort techniques, I ensure you feel confident and supported every step of the way. - Holistic Care: As a certified yoga instructor specializing in prenatal yoga, I incorporate movement and mindfulness to help you feel calm and prepared. One of my most meaningful experiences was supporting women in recovery through Motherhood Beyond Bars, where I saw how vital nurturing care and a nonjudgmental presence can be. That philosophy guides me every day. I am trained as a Full Spectrum and Abortion Doula, so I can support you through any reproductive health journey with respect and compassion. Birth is unpredictable, but my goal is always the same: to help you feel empowered, informed, and cared for, no matter what. If you’re looking for a doula who will listen deeply, support you fully, and celebrate your strength, I’d love to connect with you.

I love Nandi so much!!! Nandi joined my pregnancy support team kinda late (my fault) but she helped me and my partner to feel confident going into labor & delivery. Even though everything didn’t go as planned, she was there by my side to ask questions and to make sure I received the best care at the hospital. Thank you 💗
