Hi, I’m a DONA International-trained birth doula. My passion runs deep for supporting families through pregnancy and birth. With a Master’s degree in Social Work and three years of experience as a family advocate, I bring a calm, informed, and compassionate approach to every birth space. I’ve attended both home and hospital births and believe every family deserves to feel seen, heard, and empowered in their journey. Outside of work, I am a mom to 3 boys and love spending my time outdoors in nature.

Choosing a doula is about finding someone you feel safe with, supported by, and truly listened to. I believe every family deserves to feel respected, informed, and cared for during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, steady presence so parents can focus on welcoming their baby with confidence. I am a DONA Certified birth and postpartum doula, a Lactation Specialist, and VBAC certified. I also have training in techniques such as Spinning Babies, the Miles Circuit, and a variety of labor positions and comfort measures that can help support progress and reduce discomfort during labor. My role during birth is to help create a calm environment, offer practical comfort techniques, and support both the birthing person and their partner so they feel informed and empowered throughout the experience. After birth, my focus shifts to helping families rest, recover, and adjust to life with their new baby. Postpartum support can include newborn care guidance, feeding support, emotional encouragement, and helping parents find their rhythm during those early weeks. Every family is different, and I meet people where they are and support them in the ways that feel most helpful to them. I proudly accept Medicaid as well as private pay so that more families can access doula support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Supporting families during this time is truly meaningful work to me, and I feel honored to be invited into such an important moment in people’s lives. When I am not working with families, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling, and visiting the beach where I love collecting rocks along the shore.

My goal is to provide calm, steady support so that you feel informed, grounded, and cared for throughout pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period. As a mother of nine children with a range of birth experiences, I have a deep respect for the intensity and vulnerability of birth and the importance of continuous support. Birth is demanding, meaningful work, and compassionate support can make a profound difference in how families experience it. My role is to provide a steady, attentive presence so you can focus on the work of labor and welcoming your baby as you move through labor one step at a time. It would be an honor to walk alongside you during such an important moment in your family’s story.

Hey badass birthing warrior! I'm a mom of two tiny humans, a certified Birth Doula, Birth Photographer and Childbirth Educator serving expectant families throughout Southeast Michigan. I usually serve within an hour of Jackson, MI. I got my start in birth work by being a wedding and family photographer first. Then on Pinterest, I found birth photography photos and I thought it was beautiful. So I got into birth photography and was hooked. Then after I had my first kid, I took a birth doula training and realized that this was my calling. Not everyone has an empowering birth story and I want to help change the cultural attitude around birth by making them excited, (It's okay to be a little nervous!), confident and prepared for birth. Birth is a transformational experience for both the birthing person and their partner.

Hello, my name is Jane Boyakjon, and I am a birth doula based in Highland, Michigan. I’ve been interested in birth and working with mothers since my internship with a local pregnancy center in high school. I considered being a doula for several years during college before getting my training in September of 2024. I am passionate about helping pregnant women release fear associated with birth, and help them prepare for it as much as possible. I believe the moment of birth can and should be one of connection, empowerment, and joy rather than chaos and stress. With the right tools and support, that vision can become a reality. I work to create an atmosphere of confidence, love, and advocacy for my clients during their journey to motherhood. In my free time, I enjoy sewing my own clothes, making ceramics in my home studio, and spending time outside in nature. Hope to connect with you soon!

I’m Molly, a Registered Dietitian, personal trainer turned corporate leader turned doula.

Through Beyond Birthing Associates and Time for ME Wellness, I’m here to help you find your rhythm …because life, motherhood, and menopause might be messy, but that’s where the magic really is.
