My journey as a doula began after years working as a nurse and witnessing how powerful support can be during birth. Becoming a doula allowed me to bring my passion for nursing back to life here in the U.S., after years of working as a nanny, and to continue caring for families in such a meaningful way.

Hi, I’m Shayanna Love! I’m a full-spectrum doula, nonprofit founder, and passionate advocate for families and youth in our community. Through my practice and my organization, Love’s Pathway, I support families holistically—whether it’s guiding expecting parents through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, or creating safe spaces for young, system-impacted parents to grow and thrive. With a background in criminal justice, youth development, and lived experience supporting at-risk adolescents, I bring a trauma-informed, culturally rooted, and loving approach to everything I do. If you’re looking for support on your parenting journey, interested in collaborating on community initiatives, or just want to connect—I’d love to hear from you!

Kirstie was so amazing in guiding me through my birth. She taught me about having a birth plan and having it written it out so that doctors would follow my wishes. A birth plan was something I hadn’t even thought of but Kirstie was instrumental in helping me think ahead and giving me the best chance of having a safe birth for me and baby. She was also great in my postpartum. She checked in often and helped me breastfeeding. Teaching me massage that help milk production and foods I can eat also to help my milk supply. She thinks about all your needs before you even realize you need it. She’s a warm, calming presence to have at your most vulnerable time. There’s no other person I would recommend when looking for help in your birth and postpartum journey. Kirstie is simply the best!
