Hello! My name is Jillian (Jill is fine, too!) I am a Certified Birth Doula in the Metro Detroit area. Becoming a birth doula felt natural to me because I have always loved everything about birth and the strength that comes with bringing a baby into the world. Along with being a doula, I am also a Licensed Massage Therapist, which allows me to bring both physical comfort and emotional care into your birth experience. My goal is simple- to be there for you in the way you need the most. No matter what your birth plan looks like, I will walk alongside you without judgement- whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, cesarean, or if things shift along the way. You deserve to feel safe, heard, and cared for throughout your entire experience. I want every mother and family I work with to feel at ease being themselves and confident in their choices. Birth is beautiful, but it can also be intense, emotional, and deeply empowering- sometimes all at once! It is an honor for me to be present with you through such a meaningful moment in your life. When I'm not caring for families, I am spending time with my two boys. We love going on adventures together and making memories whenever we can. Motherhood has given me such a deep appreciation for the journey of pregnancy, birth, and raising children. My boys play a huge role in why I care so deeply about the families I am working with.

Becoming a doula was from a calling rooted in my deep desire to support and nurture others. As someone who has always been sensitive to the world around me, I understand how important it is to feel safe, seen, and empowered, especially during major life transitions. My journey as an artist, nature lover, and spiritual seeker has taught me the value of mindfulness, connection, and holistic well-being. I’ve spent years exploring different ways to express myself and make a meaningful impact, and stepping into the role of a doula feels like a natural extension of that. My philosophy as a doula is centered on creating a safe and empowering space for expecting mothers who often face unique challenges in the healthcare system. I believe in the power of intuition, self-advocacy, and holistic care, integrating mindfulness and emotional support into my practice. I want my work as a doula to help mothers feel heard, respected, and in control of their birthing experience. I also see birth as a deeply spiritual and transformative process, one that should be approached with reverence rather than fear. By combining my knowledge, natural empathy, and passion for well-being, I aim to guide and support mothers through one of the most powerful moments of their lives.

Hello, my name is Jane Boyakjon, and I am a birth doula based in Highland, Michigan.

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.
