Find a Birth or Postpartum Doula Near Me in Georgia

I genuinely cannot begin to say how thankful I am for Alexis and how she walked with us through our journey to parenthood. We had two prenatal meetings where she met with my husband and I to talk through our birth wishes and just get to know us as people. She focused on getting to know the "why" behind our birth wishes and not just the "what." Her background in counseling was such a perfect fit with her doula services as she helped us walk through the crazy emotions that surround birth and becoming a parent. We talked through how I would feel emotionally if my birth didn't go "according to plan;" we talked about how our marriage was doing in the midst of the pregnancy. Her birth class was super helpful in it made us informed and prepared about what would and could happen during birth. She did check ins after every OB appointment to see how things were going and see how I was feeling every step of the way. When my water broke, she checked in every few hours to keep up with my early labor and give us tips for the early contractions and then met us at the hospital when I was in active labor. I had all back labor, and she and my husband took turns giving me counter pressure on my back for hours. She helped guide me on when to switch positions and try new tactics. She was even there to help with little things like moving our car because it was still parked out front. After our son was born, Alexis stayed with us a few more hours until we were fully settled in our recovery room. She did a follow up meeting with us about a week after delivery and just sat with us and helped me process my birth experience which thankfully was everything that I wanted, but it's still a lot to process. Alexis set up a meal train for us and even brought a meal herself. She texted and checked in with how I was healing, how I was doing emotionally, and just how I was adjusting to motherhood every few days after birth and then weekly for the first two months postpartum. My husband and I genuinely felt like we weren't in this alone, that we had a guide walking through it with us. It was so nice that my husband could support me emotionally and didn't have to worry about having all of the knowledge to specifically support me during labor - he could focus on being my husband and not my coach. We just felt so supported and encouraged the entire journey. She constantly went above and beyond what a typical doula would do. I cannot rave about Alexis enough, and our plan is to have her present for all future childbirths.

Kay was absolutely amazing. I live 1 hr 58 minutes away from her, she showed up a the hospital and ended staying overnight because I wasn’t admitted and had no support person. I was induced 15 hours after she arrived. She was there for me through it all. Although I ended having to get a C-section because of complications with my babies heart rate she was there the entire time! I am forever grateful to Kay and recommend her 10/10! Thank you again for your great support Kay.

I got connected with Kay through a friend of mine that is also a doula. I had to go back to work a lot earlier since I am a single mother so needed nanny services. Kay was so amazing and my baby loved (still does lol) her. She also would straighten up my place and made sure things were organized when I got home from work. Kay is definitely heaven sent and I thank her for such a good experience with helping me through this journey of motherhood.

I had some postpartum questions for Lindsee and she was just a rockstar! She made me feel like I wasn’t alone in my struggles and helped me push forward! She’s WONDERFUL ♥️

An Incredibly Positive and Blessed Experience with Abbie! As a first time mom, I cannot speak highly enough about the support and care I received from Abbie. From our very first meeting, it was clear that she was not only knowledgeable and experienced but also deeply compassionate. She took the time to get to know our preferences, answer all of our questions, and make sure we felt comfortable and supported throughout my entire pregnancy journey. She was great with communication and provided us with resources throughout pregnancy for birth prep. When labor came, Abbie was calm, present, and prepared. She gave us reassurance and confidence in our birth plan/decisions throughout, while respecting the space and prioritizing baby's health. She was present throughout all of labor (A LONG TIME) and was able to help me try different positions, offer hands on support and holistic pain relief strategies, prayer, Bible verses, positive affirmations and encouraged me to eat & drink. Her presence made all the difference—I felt empowered and confident knowing she was there advocating for me and my baby. What truly stands out about Abbie is her ability to create a warm, non-judgmental space, no matter what the circumstances, and her shared faith which allowed me to open up and feel comfortable having her at my birth. She was prepared during the labor process and helped my husband and I feel confident. Thanks to her support and expertise, I felt so much more prepared for the challenges of labor and postpartum. I couldn’t have asked for a better doula, and I highly recommend her to anyone. I also want to share that I originally was skeptical of having a doula, but after many prayers I am so grateful we found Abbie and had her support during my unmedicated birth. God is good! Thank you, Abbie, for being such a vital part of our birth story and for helping us bring our baby girl into this world!

We feel so blessed to have experienced the labor and birth of our son with Olivia. We couldn't have asked for a more kind, loving, calm, strong, skilled and helpful doula, Olivia Gooden. Thank you for being a part of our team and for being such a special person in our lives. You have our deepest gratitude. #The best Doula # God's precious ❤️ # Ezekiel Jett. # 3/28/23

I contracted with Shatara a few weeks before my due date. She was excellent in the short bit of prenatal doula care I received, and really has made such an impact on the delivery and postpartum processes so far. She was a calm and assertive advocate for me while in the hospital during delivery and my subsequent days of care. She has been accessible and available for every question and concern I have had, reaffirming my parenting choices and educating me where I have needed assistance. Shatara has given me confidence, comfort, and knowledge in one of the most critical seasons of my life to-date. I am grateful for her and cannot recommend her enough to others.

Me and my husband just had our 3rd baby, and decided it would be helpful to have a postpartum doula join us during my postpartum recovery period. Let's face it, we were officially out numbered and breastfeeding a little we had our hands full and could use a little help. Brittany was a beautiful match for our home. She has an amazingly warm energy about her and so knowledgeable in herbalism. She jumped right in to help where we needed her to, from helping with the kids, laundry, and dishes. It was so helpful in time where I am not 100% yet. She also offered a kind ear to hear my birth story and offered some good advice on how to navigate our new family dynamic. So appreciative to have met such a kind soul and highly recommend her during your postpartum journey.

In my opinion you can’t choose anyone better Anne! Her introduction statement isn’t just something she wrote she truly practices what she preaches! After having both my girls she constantly checked in on us and not just the babies but checking on my needs as well! Things that I’ve never felt or experienced before or may have been to scared to say out loud she brought ease to me over them! First time mom or not I truly don’t think there’s anyone better to support you or your baby! My girls absolutely adore Anne! Thank you for the love and advice<3

We hired Chan for newborn/postpartum support and she was absolutely amazing. Our little one was in the nicu after birth and the care and attentiveness she showed was astounding

Adrienne has become like a third parent to our family — indispensable during both the transition to life with our first child and again with our second. Her overnight care allowed me to get much-needed rest so I could regain my strength and be fully present during the day. Adrienne’s love for babies is obvious in everything she does: she’s meticulous and thoughtful (hand-washing and boiling bottles rather than relying on gadgets, emptying the diaper pail, prepping fruit) and even leaves helpful notes for us. She’s always punctual and professional while remaining warm and reassuring, which empowered me as a new parent. Both children were sleep-trained by two months, thanks in part to her consistent, confident care. We look forward to her visits, genuinely miss her when she’s gone, and wholeheartedly recommend Adrienne to any family seeking compassionate, competent postpartum support.

I cannot thank her enough for the incredible support she provided during my birth at Northside Hospital! Since I hired her quite late in my pregnancy around 37 or 38 weeks, we only had time for one long virtual prenatal visit, but she completely stepped up. Within just a few days, she supplied me with so many helpful handouts and information, including great resources for postpartum planning. I was really struggling to afford a doula since it isn't covered by my insurance, and the fact that she provided her care for free was a massive blessing.She was always personally available whenever I needed her by text or call. She answered all of my questions and was completely honest if there was something she didn't know, which I really appreciated. What I loved most was how comfortable I felt with her. We are close in age and knew each other previously, so there was absolutely zero judgment. She phrased medical things in a way that was so easy to understand.She was also incredibly thoughtful and culturally responsive; when I explained that I have trauma from past OBGYN experiences and felt uncomfortable with certain language, she immediately adjusted her wording to make me feel safe. We even hit a few hiccups with the medical staff during my time at the hospital, and she was right there by my side helping me through every single one of them. She is building a wonderful practice, and her dedication and honesty make her an absolutely great birthworker. She was perfect for me!

Jenn supported us with the birth of our first child. From the first time we met with her, Jenn exuded confidence and was very knowledgeable, which put us at ease. As first time parents, we didn't know what the process would be like and appreciated all of her tips and best practices that she shared with us. We felt informed and equipped to make the best decisions for our family. She helped us craft a birth plan, shared relevant resources with us and communicated with us often in the weeks leading up to the birth. Jenn is very responsive, punctual and professional while being down to earth and approachable. Not only did she care for me as the birth mother, but she also ensured that my husband was supported throughout the process as well—which was very appreciated by us. Jenn went above and beyond, staying with us for awhile after our daughter was born to make sure that we were well settled in our hospital room. We love that Jenn took photos and videos of precious moments that we will cherish forever. Jenn is thoughtful and caring and shared snacks and personal stories with us for our postpartum visit. We highly recommend Jenn and would hire her again in a heart beat if the opportunity arises!

I had my first child with Brandi as my doula and I’m so glad I did. Brandi helped me navigate the hospital and birthing experience in a way that was supportive and unobtrusive. She knew the birth plan that we had designed prior together and helped me create as close to that as possible as things progressed. When I was uncomfortable she had many tools to assist from the big stuff ( walking the halls and pressure release and e-stim during contractions), to the little stuff (chapstick and eye mask!). She was there for the entire birth, never left my side. Postpartum checkups and post birth summary as well. Thank you Brandi!!

I cannot say enough amazing things about emma! From the moment she joined my birth team, I felt supported, understood, and genuinely cared for. She was calm, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable the exact presence I needed throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. She checked on me consistently, answered every question without judgment, and made sure I always felt empowered in every decision. During labor, she brought such a grounding energy. She anticipated my needs before I even said them and helped create a peaceful environment that made a huge difference in my birth experience. What I appreciated most was how she advocated for me and made sure my voice was heard. She held space for me emotionally, guided me physically, and truly honored the kind of birth I wanted. Her support didn’t stop after delivery she followed up, encouraged me, and made the transition home feel so much easier. Hiring her was one of the best decisions I made. I’m incredibly grateful for her compassion, professionalism, and warmth. I would recommend her to any expectant parent without hesitation.

Sherri provided such helpful support for me during my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum! I’m so grateful for the role she played in making my experience positive and enjoyable and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for any mama looking for support!

Donnita Parker has worked with me as my full spectrum doula through a few of my pregnancies and has always been such a great help. I am labeled as high risk and had to have C-Sections. She worked with me while I was pregnant, providing emotional support and helping me prepare mentally and physically for birth. She was present with me during the births as my doula, using comfort measures to ease anxiety and advocate for my needs. In the postpartum period after bringing my children (now ages 3 and 4) home from the hospital, Donnita was invaluable. She assisted me with newborn care, breastfeeding support, meal prep, light housework, and self-care. I suffered from postpartum mood issues, but she helped lift my spirits with counseling, compassion, and practical baby care advice tailored to my situation. Even now, years later, I still call on Donnita from time to time in her role as my motherhood coach. As questions and struggles arise, she helps guide me on my parenting journey with sage wisdom and personalized tips. I am so grateful to have had Donnita's continuous care and support through all stages of pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. She has truly made this journey easier.

I cannot recommend Tara highly enough as a doula. From the moment we met, her warmth and compassion were evident, and she made me feel completely at ease throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum period. Tara was always available to answer my questions, no matter how trivial they seemed, and her knowledge and expertise were truly invaluable. During labor, Tara's calming presence and practical support made a significant difference. She helped me with breathing techniques, provided comforting massages, and continuously offered words of encouragement. Her ability to anticipate my needs and respond with such care was incredible. It felt like she was reading my mind at times! One moment that stands out is when I was feeling particularly overwhelmed during labor. Tara suggested a change in position and guided me through it, which made a world of difference in my comfort and progress. Her suggestions were always spot-on, and she worked seamlessly with the medical staff to ensure that my birth plan was respected. Postpartum, Tara continued to be a pillar of support. She checked in regularly, offering helpful advice on breastfeeding and newborn care, and was always there to lend an empathetic ear. Her support made the transition into motherhood much smoother, and I felt so much more confident knowing I had her by my side. Overall, Tara's dedication, professionalism, and genuine care set her apart. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as my doula. I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable, and compassionate doula.
