Charlotte Blanchet

Accepts insurance

Hi! I'm Dr. Charlotte Blanchet, a birth doula, chiropractor, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and the founder of The River of Life Chiropractic Center in Kennesaw, Georgia. As both a healthcare professional and a mother of two, I have a deep passion for supporting women throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I believe every mother deserves to feel heard, empowered, informed, and genuinely supported as she navigates one of life's most transformative experiences. My approach to birth support is rooted in education, informed decision-making, and compassionate, continuous care. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, considering an epidural, preparing for an induction, or simply unsure of what you want, my role is to support YOUR birth experience without judgment or personal agendas. What makes my practice unique is that I offer a **one-stop shop for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care**. Along with birth doula services, I provide Webster-certified prenatal chiropractic care, postpartum recovery support, and professional lactation consultations. This allows me to build lasting relationships with families and support them through every stage of their journey. I believe birth is not just about bringing a baby into the world. It's about helping a mother feel confident, respected, and supported as she begins a new chapter. I proudly serve families throughout Kennesaw, Marietta, Acworth, Woodstock, Smyrna, and the greater Atlanta area. I'd be honored to be part of your birth team! 🤍

Today was my first visit with Dr. Blanchet and it was so wonderful! The warm welcoming environment and her knowledgeable touch was exactly what I needed. I walked out of her office feeling wonderful and armed with new stretches to help with my hip issues. I will be back!

Tara Khamvongsa

Hi all mamas, I’m Tara and I’m certain I’m the right doula for you and your growing family. I’m a mother of three beautiful children and I’ve experienced three very different births personally: medicated with epidural, all natural, and an emergency c section. I also breastfed each child for over a year and offer lactation support postpartum. I fully understand the physical, emotional and spiritual challenges of pregnancy, childbirth and early motherhood. I believe a new version of the mother is born along with the babies. I’m here to advocate for you, to support you and your personal goals. The fear of the unknown is lesser when we know someone really has our back and I will be that person for you. I’ve been an unofficial doula and breastfeeding guru for friends and family for years. You will not have to do any of this alone. I’ll hold your hand, your legs lol and your baby.

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.

Hello, my name is Shandrea Herrington, and I am the mother of two wonderful boys, aged 18 and 19. My personal journey and dedication to providing exceptional care and support to families during the precious period of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood have led me to develop a passion for assisting families outside regular office hours. As a highly experienced Medical Assistant with over 10 years in pediatrics, obstetrics, and gynecology, I am deeply passionate about helping families navigate the challenges of welcoming a new life.

My vast experience working with newborns has also enabled me to deeply understand the needs and demands of both mothers and babies during this critical period. With a strong belief in the power of compassionate care and support, I established Baby Bliss by Shan—a company dedicated to providing expert guidance and assistance to individuals and couples as they navigate the beautiful yet challenging journey of parenthood. I understand that every family is unique, with its own set of desires, fears, and expectations. That's why our services are personalized to meet each client's unique needs. I provide breastfeeding support, newborn care, and postpartum doula care services, ensuring parents receive the best guidance possible.

Peaches was an amazing night nurse! She cared so well for our sweet girl while we could get some sleep. As first time parents, we had so many questions and she was always available whether at our home or cell between nights to answer them and keep our mind at ease. She made us feel comfortable to ask anything and we learned a lot from her. The first few weeks with a newborn are tough and we are so grateful to Peaches for helping us. She is very educated and genuinely passionate about her job, she even had our baby sleeping through the night at 3 months. You would be very lucky to have Peaches caring for your baby!
