Hi, I’m Beth…a DONA-trained Birth & Postpartum Doula with a heart for empowering women and supporting families as they grow. While I may be “newer” to the formal doula world, my passion and experience run deep. For decades, I’ve walked alongside families through pregnancy, birth, and the tender early days of parenthood—helping mamas feel seen, supported, and confident in their strength. I’m the proud mother of one amazing adult human who has flown the nest to the fresh air and beauty of the NC mountains. My journey into birth work began more than twenty years ago during my own pregnancy, when I discovered the transformative power of being truly supported and held in that sacred season. Since then, I’ve continued to learn and grow—earning my B.A. and M.Ed. in Education and gaining a wealth of hands-on experience nurturing families and little ones. My deep interest in natural health, social–emotional development, and attachment has inspired me to pursue further training in infant mental health, dyadic relationships, children’s yoga, and herbalism. I believe in caring for the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—and in meeting each family exactly where they are. When I work with families, my goal is to hold space for birth and postpartum experiences that feel calm, connected, and empowering. I blend evidence-based practices with a gentle, holistic approach that honors each mother’s intuition and journey. One of my favorite quotes beautifully reflects what I believe: “Whenever & however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, & your spirit for the rest of your life.” ~Ina May Gaskin

Beth provided doula services for our first labor that was intended to be a home birth but turned into a hospital transfer. Beth was great and stuck with us for the whole entire 3 day process. She checked in multiple times before labor started as well and was super thorough with making sure she undersetood my husband and I's desires for our birth. During the actual labor Beth was great support to not only me but my husband as well, trying to protect our energy as much as she could, and during our transfer, Beth was super encouraging and made me feel supported even though it wasn't in our original birth plan. Thank you again Beth, we are so grateful for you!

Briana is such an incredible doula! She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, warm, and makes you feel supported and cared for every step of the way. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Hello! I’m Selena, a passionate postpartum doula dedicated to helping families navigate the beautiful, chaotic, and transformative days of early parenthood. I approach doula care with a bubbly, bright, and deeply nurturing energy—meaning I am just as ready to lift your spirits with a smile as I am to hold a quiet, supportive space for you when you just need to rest. My goal is to walk into your home and instantly lower the baseline stress. Whether that means preparing a nourishing snack, setting up a seamless pumping station, or simply listening to your birth story with zero judgment, I am there to ensure you feel entirely seen, safe, and cared for. The "Experienced Mom" Advantage Beyond my professional training, my deepest expertise comes from my own lived experience. I am an experienced mother to two wonderful children, aged 2 and 6. I know firsthand exactly what those early weeks feel like. I remember the sleep deprivation, the vulnerability, and the overwhelming love. Because I am currently raising a toddler and a school-aged child, I have fresh, real-world knowledge of: The delicate art of managing sibling transitions (helping older siblings feel loved and included). Practical, modern newborn soothing techniques that actually work. The realities of balancing self-care with the demands of a growing family. I don’t just bring textbook knowledge into your home; I bring real, battle-tested mother's intuition and practical wisdom. My Philosophy & Support Style I believe that the "fourth trimester" is a sacred time that deserves immense tenderness. I tailor my care entirely to your family's unique rhythm, always aiming to leave you feeling more confident than I found you. What I bring to your family: A Nurturing Presence: Calm, gentle care that allows you to let your guard down and recover physically and emotionally. Bubbly Optimism: An encouraging, positive attitude that infuses your home with warmth and reassurance, even after a long night. Practical Magic: From organizing the nursery to organizing your day, I jump in wherever hands are needed most. Services Offered Daytime postpartum adjustment and emotional check-ins. Newborn care education (swaddling, soothing, bathing). Feeding support (breastfeeding, pumping, or formula feeding guidance). Light household organization, meal prep, and sibling integration support.

​From the moment she walked through the door, Selena brought a sense of calm that instantly eased our new-parent anxiety. She has an incredible intuition for exactly what a healing mother and a newborn need. Whether she was subtly managing the household chaos, preparing nourishing meals, or offering evidence-based guidance on infant sleep and feeding, she did it all with zero judgment and a massive heart. ​What truly sets Selena apart is how she cares for the entire family unit. She didn't just take care of the baby so we could sleep (though her overnight support is pure magic); she mothered me when I needed it most, holding space for the intense emotions of the fourth trimester. ​Because of Selena, we didn’t just survive the postpartum period—we actually got to slow down, heal, and bond with our baby. She is professional, deeply knowledgeable, endlessly compassionate, and feels like family by the time her shift ends.

Hey there! I am Josie Johnson. I am a mama of 4 incredible daughters and grandmama to the best grand baby boy that ever there was. I am a faith based doula with a passion for serving women providing them with opportunities for informed decision making. I believe feeding people is one of my love languages and also offer meal planning and food prep for the postpartum period. Feel free to reach out for a chat to decide if we would be a good fit for each other. I can’t wait to meet you!

Hiring Josie from Living Water Doula Care for my second C-section was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My first C-section was an emergency and left me with significant birth trauma and anxiety that I didn’t fully understand until my second pregnancy, but then I met Josie and she completely transformed my experience. Before my C-section, she helped me process my first birth and identify where my trauma was rooted. She also helped create a calm, peaceful home for me to return to after delivery. On the day of my C-section, Josie was my anchor, and recognized my anxiety even when I tried to hide it and made sure my concerns were heard. I was terrified of the spinal, but she advocated for me with the medical team and encouraged them to explain each step, helping me feel safe and informed. Her calming presence changed the entire atmosphere of the room. She also supported my partner, a first-time dad, helping him feel included and at ease. After surgery, I experienced intense pain, and Josie continued to show up for me, even coming to the hospital in the middle of the night. She helped me manage my pain through breathing techniques, physical comfort, and emotional support. When I felt overwhelmed after being moved to a smaller room, she once again advocated for me and helped me feel safe. Coming home was just as meaningful. Josie had prepared my space, making it feel warm, peaceful, and restorative. Her postpartum care helped me slow down, release guilt, and focus on healing. Josie doesn’t just support birth—she honors it. She didn’t just support me through my C-section; she helped me heal from past trauma. Before hiring her, I wasn’t sure a doula was necessary for a C-section. Now I can confidently say it was one of the most important decisions I’ve ever made. Because of Josie, I no longer fear growing my family, and I’m forever grateful for the role she played in my healing journey.

Hello, Everyone, I’m Netta, founder/CEO of Doula Dynasty. I’m a birth and postpartum doula, certified breastfeeding and childbirth educator, and a veteran homeschool mommy of five. I’ve spent over 30 years supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, bringing both professional expertise and lived experience to every family I serve. I hold a Master’s in Healthcare Information and certifications including CNA, Infant/Child CPR, AED, First Aid, Birth and Postpartum Doula, and Breastfeeding Educator. I’m passionate about creating a holistic, calm, and enjoyable birth experience, tailored to each family’s unique needs. I believe that when the environment is relaxing and supportive, birth can be empowering, memorable, and even joyful. Outside of doula work, I love to meditate, write, read, spend time with my family, and sip green tea. I have a lifelong love of the beach and seafood boils, which keeps me grounded and connected to my roots. Doula Dynasty is about empowerment, connection, and generational impact. I provide compassionate, holistic, evidence-based care in a nurturing environment, honoring your choices and helping families feel confident, seen, and celebrated. My goal is to leave families not only with a positive birth experience but also with a renewed sense of strength, resilience, and joy.

We worked with Netta and Doula Dynasty for four months for overnights from the day we brought our second daughter home from the hospital. From that first night, Netta was incredible. Very caring, responsible, professional and safe with our daughter and also supportive of me postpartum. She is positive, loving and knows exactly what to do to help your baby sleep so that you can get some rest. She’s also helped us during the day too and is a lovely person. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience having Grace as our doula! She carries herself with confidence and joy as she helped us navigate preparation and birth. Grace always made herself available to me as a first time mom who had lots of questions. She was quick to respond and willing to help me learn! I think one of the many blessings from Grace, was that in our delivery room she created a really peaceful and beautiful environment by setting up a diffuser and candle lights in the room! Grace was a really valuable part of our first birth experience!

Hello! My name is Bridgette, and I would love to be your doula! I began my journey as a birth doula with my training under the LEADoula program including class hours and practical hands-on birth support and am certified through DONA International. I have supported many families including first time parents to fourth time parents. I have assisted families with support during scheduled inductions, TOLAC/VBAC, planned and unplanned C-sections. I have assisted families with unmedicated and medicated births. I am also a Certified Postpartum Doula and Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (IBCLC Student). I can assist you in your lactation journey as well. My passion comes from my love of advocacy. There is no greater joy than watching a family grow! Allow me to support you in your journey!

Recent review

If you are on the fence about including Bridgette in your birth and postpartum journey, let this be your sign to absolutely do it. As a first time mom, she provided care and love for me and my family in ways I didn’t even know I needed. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes a team based approach in every decision. I had no qualms or hesitations about placing my trust in her because at the end of the day I knew she had my back all the way from her birth/breastfeeding classes to every step throughout labor. Although my birth experience did not go the way we had planned, I wouldn’t be able to look back at my experience as positively as I do if not for her. She genuinely felt like a big sister and best friend throughout the whole experience. Even my husband, as he recounts our birth experience, sings her high praises and felt incredibly supported by her as well. Because of her, he even goes around telling new parents that they have to get a Doula because of how amazing Bridgette was. I genuinely feel like we were meant to cross paths and now my life and experience as a parent is better because of her. Seriously, she’s amazing. You would be remiss not to have her on your team.

Hi! I’m Trisha, a postpartum doula with a big heart for babies and the people who bring them into this world. I’ve spent over 15 years caring for little ones and supporting new families, and I truly believe that no one should have to walk this journey alone. Those early days (and nights!) with a newborn can be beautiful, overwhelming, and everything in between. I’m here to be a calm and steady presence, someone who shows up with open arms, a listening ear, and a helping hand. Through Melodies in Bloom Doula Services, I offer both daytime and overnight support. Whether you need extra rest, help with newborn care, or just someone to talk to during a 3 a.m. feeding, I’ve got you. My goal is to support you in a way that feels natural and empowering, like having a good friend who happens to know a lot about babies! You’ve got this… and I’ve got you.

Recent review

I cannot recommend Trisha highly enough. From the very beginning, she was an incredible source of steady guidance and reassurance as I navigated the unknowns of new motherhood. Her depth of knowledge, calm presence, and thoughtful support made such a meaningful difference during a vulnerable and transformative time. She was always punctual, professional, and completely reliable—but what truly set her apart was the genuine care she showed for our family. She took the time to listen and to support me not just physically, but emotionally. She anticipated needs I didn’t even know I had yet and helped me feel more confident, capable, and at peace in my role as a new mother. Over time, she became far more than just our doula—she became a trusted confidante and a dear friend. Her presence brought comfort and warmth into our home, and I will always be deeply grateful for the role she played in our postpartum journey. Any family would be extraordinarily lucky to have her by their side.
