Hi there Mama! My name is Faith and I’m a labor and delivery nurse and certified doula, passionate about helping women have empowering and informed births. I pride myself on being a knowledgeable, approachable and accessible presence during such a transformative time in a woman’s life. My goal is to empower women, educate them about their options, and help them feel supported every step of the way. I’m exceptional at listening to the specific needs of each family and tailoring my care to meet their unique requests. As a doula, I provide emotional and physical support before, during, and after birth. I’m skilled at creating a calming environment, offering comfort measures like massage and relaxation techniques, and being an advocate for the birthing person’s wishes. I also assist with breastfeeding, guide families through postpartum recovery, and help partners feel confident in their roles. With certifications in NRP, ACLS, BLS, EFM, breastfeeding, and more, I bring both clinical expertise and compassionate care to my work. Whether it’s through antepartum support during high-risk pregnancies, encouragement during labor, or postpartum reassurance, I’m here to ensure the family’s journey is as smooth, personalized, and empowering as possible.

My name is Kristin McKee. I am a child of God, a women, a wife to an amazing husband since 2020, and a mother to two sweet little boys and an angel baby gone way too soon. I am a Labor and Delivery nurse since 2020; user of the Marquette Method NFP model since 2020; a Natural Family Planning Instructor through the Marquette University since 2022 and Certified since 2024; a Certified Lactation Consultant since 2023; and lastly, a women, wife, and mother navigating this world in the most natural and holistic way for my family.

My name is Josie Patton. I'm a wife and mom of 4 boys including a set of twins, all of whom I have or am currently breastfeeding. I obtained my CLS in 2021 after the birth of my second son. I had a lot of struggles with my first and although we made it to our goal for nursing it took a lot of work on my behalf to make it happen. I knew then that I wanted to be the person who helps other families in our community that have nursing/feeding struggles. By Design Lactation came to life when I took my step of faith that God had big plans for me to make my dream of helping others come true. I wholly believe that we are designed to provide life and then sustain it after birth. Most women who struggle to breastfeed are not incapable of doing it they just lack support and/or knowledge, I strive to break those barriers to help families reach their feeding goals!

Hello, and thank you for visiting my page! My name is Ronae (pronounced like the more commonly spelled "Renee"), and I am a Certified Birth Doula and Certified Lactation Specialist located in Fort Wayne, IN. I have always been passionate about serving and encouraging other women. Through my own parenting journey over the years, I have developed an avid interest in all things birth and breastfeeding. I have been a certified Birth Doula since 2020 through ICEA and Global Birth Community and have been a Certified Lactation Specialist (CLS through LEC) since 2021. I have experience in supporting births in hospitals, in birth centers, and at home. I believe that women have a right to nonjudgmental encouragement and support throughout their birth story, whatever they choose and wherever it takes them. I feel it is especially important for birth workers to empower women to understand their options in pregnancy and birth so they are able to provide true informed consent, playing an active role in their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences.

Hi I am Maria, and I came to doula work after working in childcare for 8 years. After spending time with parents who had relatively no postpartum care or support, I soon started my training to bridge that gap. I believe that the postpartum period is one of the most crucial stages of pregnancy. Many parents experience feelings of loneliness, confusion, and exhaustion and it is Maria’s top priority to help parents feel their best during your fourth trimester. Maria believes that every family who wants a doula should have one. Promoting a judgement free zone, she happily works with families and individuals of any age, race, & gender. Instilling confidence and nurturing a new family is what makes Maria excited to go to work every day. Maria has been trained as an EMT, birth and postpartum doula, certified lactation counselor, and is working on her IBCLC certification which she plans to finish by winter 2025.

Hi, I’m Bethany and I would love to be your doula. I honor the cycle of life by walking beside those stepping through its most sacred threshold: birth

I officially began my birth work journey in 2018 and have gone on to work as a doula, lactation counselor, and birth assistant. I feel the idea of supporting women in their birth journey actually took root with my firstborn in 1994. I loved and cherished the guidance I received from other women and provide the care that meant so much to me. I have 4 grown children 2 of which were hospital births and 2 home births. I feel honored to be able to share my experience with women and families. I approach birth holistically. As well as physical support during labor, my role is also to act as an advocate for the birthing woman and her family. Contact me to find out more.
