Hi, my name is Aliyah! I’m a birth and postpartum doula and the owner of Comfort Hands Birth Support. My goal is to support mothers through every stage of their journey — from pregnancy to postpartum — with compassion, education, and reassurance. I believe every woman deserves to feel empowered, heard, and cared for during birth.

I am a Birth and Postpartum Doula and I received my training in Ann Arbor Michigan. I love to help young women and their newborns get through the difficult period of after the baby is born. I can help with household chores, baby needs, mom needs.

I am a certified Labor Doula, Postpartum and Infant Care Doula, and Lactation Specialist with over twenty combined years of professional and personal experience. I took the leap in 2020 during COVID to become certified and continue to educate myself regularly. My passion is supporting new families as they navigate pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum journey. As a mother of six and a proud Nana, my personal experiences have helped shape my deep commitment to empowering women during these most memorable, and sometimes vulnerable, moments of their lives. Even as a young mother, I was determined to understand every aspect of motherhood — learning extensively about what pregnancy entails, how childbirth transforms us, and for that brief moment why nature reminds us to pause. My dedication deepened in light of the alarming maternal mortality rates among women of color, which led me to become a Labor Doula. I quickly recognized the critical need for support after the baby came home and became a Postpartum Doula with a special focus on overnight care. I took action on my passion. I am honored to help families navigate the beginning of their new journey.

Hello! My name is Lauryn Jaworski. I am Birth and Postpartum Doula. I am passionate about women's health and supporting and uplighting women no matter what, but especially in the most crucial and special time of their lives during and after giving birth. I believe in the cliché saying, "it takes a village", because it really, truly does. I was inspired by the mother of a family I nannied for, when she had given birth to their 3rd child. I got to help her through her postpartum experience and I knew It was something I wanted to explore more and that I wanted to help other women through their postpartum journey. This then led me down the path to getting certified as both a birth doula and a postpartum doula. There is not a lot of support out there for women during birth and postpartum so my goal is to ensure a supportive and seamless birth and postpartum. Whether you want a birth doula or a postpartum doula, I am here to provide you with the care you are looking for.

I am a certified birth doula, VBAC certified doula, birth photographer, and mother of two. My own births, a gentle cesarean followed by a healing VBAC, deeply shaped the way I support families. I understand how important it is to feel heard, respected, informed, and emotionally safe throughout pregnancy and birth. I am also completing my Body Ready Method certification, which allows me to bring more individualized, body based preparation into my prenatal support. Two of the most important parts of my birth philosophy are true informed decision making and helping families have a positive, trauma free birth experience. I believe informed consent should be more than simply being told what is recommended. You deserve to understand your options, the benefits and risks, and the alternatives available so you can make decisions that feel right for you. Birth photography is also a deeply important part of who I am and how I serve families. Birth is filled with powerful moments that can be difficult to fully remember while you are living them. Photographs preserve the strength, emotion, connection, and small details of your story, allowing you to see your experience from a new perspective and hold onto it for generations. Whether you are planning an unmedicated birth, VBAC, induction, epidural, or cesarean, my goal is for you to feel confident, respected, supported, and at peace with your birth story.
