Emily Baldwin Birth Doula in Toccoa, GA
About Emily
My goal as a birth worker is to hold space for women as they go through the sacred journey of pregnancy, while educating them on their natural ability to give birth. My own birth helped me realize my passion for helping women feel empowered in their births. From this thought and the encouragement of friends, Kindred Souls was born. In addition to Placenta Encapsulation, I am also a Certified Birth Doula and Birth Photographer. I serve an hour radius of Toccoa, Georgia.

Birth Photography
As a Certified Birth Photographer, I am trained in the art of storytelling. Your birth is a beautiful and once in a lifetime experience. Being able to capture these moments brings me joy; knowing that a family will have these memories to look back on forever is priceless. I'm typically able to get between 50-80 images, but this varies on the length of labor. Doula Support and Birth Photography - $2000 Birth Photography Only - $1000
What to expect
As a birth Doula, I offer 2-4 prenatal appointments where we talk about birth prep, pain management, and pregnancy/newborn/postpartum care. I rely heavily on evidence-based care, and making sure you have cal the tools necessary to make your own safe birth decisions. I offer herbal remedies and homeopathy for common pregnancy and birth ailments, as well as placenta encapsulation if you wish. After birth, I can help you establish a good breastfeeding routine in the weeks following birth. I also offer birth and newborn lifestyle photography.
