Find a Midwife Near Me in Georgia

oula work has always felt familiar to me—like something I was born to do. Even as a little girl, I felt deeply connected to the experience of birth and the sacred role of nurturing women through it. This work is more than a job—it’s my passion, my calling, and where my deepest love resides. At SoulexTheDoula, I am committed to serving all birthing people. I hold space for incarcerated mothers, trans dads with reproductive systems, and anyone bringing life into the world. Every soul deserves compassionate, dignified, and affirming care—and I’m honored to walk alongside them in their journey.”

Soulex the Doula has been incredible in mine and my child’s life. I wanted to leave a shining review but struggled even capturing the positive impact of my time with Soulex the Doula, in words. I really hope I do justice to what this time meant to me. Alexus post-partum doula support was life altering in the most vulnerable time I’ve ever experienced. I’ve had 2 children and only worked with Lex with my first born. Let me just say, her energy was deeply missed the second time around. I live in a different state now but at the time, Lex did SO MUCH. She helped with nursing, even in the middle of the night for my exclusively breast fed baby, she would stay over to make sure I had the most restful night I could. The baby would wake, and Lex would wake pick her up and latch her to my nipple while I rest, leaving me virtually undisturbed. Lex changed night diapers, and would rock my daughter back to sleep while I slept. During the day visits, Lex would take care of baby while I got time for ME. I could shower, get ready, and feel beautiful in such a strange time. Lex gave me support with getting back in connection with my body through movement with dance and stretching practices. I would have NEVER known this was meaningful work, otherwise. Lex also gave a lot of spiritual guidance and support as a medium while I was personally going through the shifts from new motherhood. She would clean my home, help me organize, or rearrange on a whim. It was nothing short of magical, and genuinely felt like I had a little fairy god mother around the house doing things without me even having to think about it - let alone lift a finger. The bond I watched her grow with my daughter at 4 months old was incredibly special. And now, as a 7 year old, they still stay in touch. We love you, Lex and you really feel like a part of the family for life. Thank you for you’re love, your care, your intention, your intuition, and your raw passion for what you do. From the bottom of my heart, Qui.

Storm Savage

Yes, I was actually named after Storm from X Men, so standing up for what is right is in my DNA. My love for women’s health started at just 7 years old when I experienced my older sister give birth. Now at 23, I’m experiencing the journey firsthand as a first time mom. Conceiving naturally while navigating PCOS has been an absolute miracle, and it completely solidified my awe and respect for what our bodies can do. That personal experience shapes exactly how I show up as a birthworker. My approach centers on a holistic, body led style, leaning heavily into somatic movement and herbal wisdom (combined with evidence-based practices), to help you intuitively flow through labor. Just like my namesake, political advocacy is a massive part of who I am. When I'm not supporting births, I’m fighting for women and PCOS awareness, leading educational discussions, and speaking out against political injustice. I’m a member of the Atlanta Peach Book Club where we strengthen community through education! My downtime is filled with creative outlets and animal companionship. You can usually find me painting or relaxing at home with my pets. I have three cats and a dog who keep life cozy! I offer both in person and virtual care, always rooted in an open, judgment free space. Your background, values, and choices guide everything we do, and I would love to walk beside you through this massive life transition.

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!

Shanicqua Meyers

I have always been passionate about helping those expecting and their loved ones learn how to advocate for their needs. I am currently in my Doula Certification program, but have helped families for many years. Through my travels and lived experiences in and out of the U.S, I bring knowledge and wisdom from many cultures, including my own Caribbean heritage. My goal is to teach those who are expecting how to listen to their bodies, take care of their needs inside and out, and have the type of birth that they have always imagined. I also support families through changes that may occur during labor and delivery by assisting in creating flexible birth plans. In case of postpartum and bereavement, I provide care, sensitivity, and tools focused on grieving. I am here to support you and cheer you on as an advocate and loving birth assistant.

We are beyond grateful for the support and care we received from Mrs. Shanicqua. Throughout our pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the very beginning, she provided incredible insight on nutrition, breastfeeding, and what to realistically expect during both pregnancy and postpartum. Her knowledge gave us confidence, but more importantly, her presence gave us peace. She has a true gift for supporting families — not just with information, but with compassion. During postpartum, when emotions can feel overwhelming, she was a steady voice of reassurance and encouragement. She helped us navigate those feelings in a healthy way and has always made herself available when we needed guidance. Beyond being an amazing doula, she has also been such a supportive and genuine friend to us in this process. Her care never felt transactional — it felt personal, intentional, and deeply invested in our well-being as a growing family. We truly couldn’t imagine this journey without her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for knowledgeable, compassionate, and heartfelt doula support.

Hi, I’m Sheryl, founder of Dreams Delivered Birthing Services and a certified full-spectrum doula with a nursing background. I support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with calm, compassionate, and evidence-based care. My approach honors the natural physiology of birth while also recognizing when medical support is appropriate. I believe families deserve to feel informed, respected, and empowered in every birth setting—whether that’s a hospital, birth center, or home. I specialize in emotional and physical labor support, advocacy, comfort measures, birth education, and gentle postpartum guidance. I am especially passionate about reducing unnecessary interventions by helping birthing people understand their options, trust their bodies, and feel confident in their choices. Every family I serve receives personalized care rooted in respect, balance, and deep listening. It would be an honor to walk alongside you as you welcome your baby.

Working with Sheryl was the best experience. She was always calm, polite, professional, and exceedingly knowledgeable. She was present and reassuring throughout the entire pregnancy and birth. She made a lasting impact and I will definitely use her services again and continue to recommend her to all I cross.

Lauren Swanson

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I provide heartfelt birth and postpartum support for mothers and families during one of life’s most transformative seasons. As both a birth and postpartum doula—and a mother myself—I understand the importance of feeling empowered, nurtured, and understood throughout pregnancy, birth, and the days that follow. Whether it’s offering calm, steady presence during labor, or providing personalized postpartum care—like preparing meals, tending to laundry, offering emotional support, or sharing practical guidance—I’m here to walk alongside you. My goal is to create a space rooted in simplicity, generosity, and authenticity so you can feel cared for and focus on what matters most: your growing family.

Lauren is amazing! She helped me build my birth plan and was able to bring her own experience and knowledge to help me make educated decisions. I ended up having to be medically induced early, and she talked through my birth plan with me again and helped me make adjustments. Day of, it was SO helpful to have her in the room to talk through decisions because the midwife was giving recommendations to change my birth plan, and it was so helpful to have a third party person who was educated in L&D to be able to talk this through with and come to the best conclusion for me. In the midst of giving birth, she was so helpful, attending to our every need. Because we had met ahead of time and she really took the time to get to know my goals and desires, she was able to advocate for me. I had precipitous labor, so things escalated quickly. At one point, my midwife asked me a question about pain meds that needed an immediate response. I was mid-contraction and unable to speak, but Lauren jumped in with no hesitation and communicated exactly what I wanted to say! She was also able to help keep my husband calm and engaged during our baby’s birth, and even he said he was so thankful Lauren was there with us! I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone interested in hiring a doula!

Nia Dariso

Greetings! My name is Nia Ashay Dariso and I'm a trained full-spectrum doula. Located in the metro Atlanta area, my passion for serving babies and their families began as a child. With a natural knack for supporting others, it is an honor to be on this path! As a full spectrum doula, I believe that every birthing person: - Is equipped with all that they need in order to succeed - Deserves additional access to the help they need - Deserves access to a safe birthing environment - Deserves and needs community - Deserves to be supported and nurtured (including, as applicable, their partner) When I'm not in the birth work world, I enjoy being in nature, practicing yoga, and indulging in delicious meals.

From the beginning to the very end, Nia had been with us every step of the way. From teaching me massaging techniques to help my wife to keeping us well informed when we had questions, Nia is the epitome of professionalism. She was very patient, kind and caring to my wife throughout the whole birthing process and even checks on us till this day, if anyone is in need of a Doula, Nia Dariso is the lady for the job!

Brittany Kochar

Hi! I’ve been a birth doula and birth photographer for five years, in which time I’ve had the honor of supporting many families looking to experience birth in all different ways. The key foundations of my practice are education, learning about informed consent, and making sure you AND your support people feel ready and empowered walking into your birth journey. Besides being a mama of two myself, my greatest passion is supporting and documenting families through their birth journeys.

Brittany did my birth and breast-feeding photography. Those photos are so special and magical to me. Throughout my pregnancy Brittany was so easy to communicate with, she checked in regularly, and offered words of support. My birth photos are incredible. She captured the rawness and intimacy of my homebirth experience, the tenderness and connection with the baby and my older daughter, and the connection between my husband and I. Brittany also did our breast-feeding shoot. I’m so happy I have those photos as this is my last baby, and those photos are such a beautiful reminder of a breast-feeding journey. I would highly recommend Brittany to anybody looking for a birth, breast-feeding or family photographer!

Megan Walker

Accepts insurance

HIYA FRIEND! I ENJOY HELPING MOMS KNOW THEIR STRENGTH IN BIRTH & HOW TO REST IN POSTPARTUM. When I started studying birth work, I knew it was my calling. I zoned into it and fell in love so hard that I can talk about babies and birth any time of any day. In labor, I rejoice in seeing a woman break free in her body and focus on the bond with her baby. In postpartum, I treasure getting to see a family welcome their newest member + seeing mom resting and healing.

Megan is truly the best! Hiring her was the best decision my husband and I made with our second child. I went into labor 5 weeks early and she was by my side the entire time. She advocated for me and helped me through all my contractions. If you are looking for a doula - megan is the best! Thank you again for everything Megan!

Jessica Medina

As a mother of three, I've walked the journey of birth and parenthood with both uncertainty and empowerment. My own experiences have taught me the profound impact that supportive care and holistic approach can have on a woman's transition into motherhood. At 20, I became a mom to my daughter Ava, navigating a medicated 12-hour labor and the challenges that followed. Despite the difficulties, I was determined to grow and learn. With my second child, Maxim, I discovered the strength of my body and the power of natural birth. However, it wasn't until the birth of my third child, Natalie, that I truly embodied the transformative potential of holistic birth and parenting. Through dedicated preparation, self-care, and community support, I cultivated a profound trust in my own abilities and the natural process of birth. As a certified doula through The Matrona, I've been blessed to learn from the wisdom of Whapio and the Matrona lineage. I strive to bring the knowledge and heart-centered approach of these wise women to every birth I attend, honoring the sacredness and individuality of each family's journey. As a holistic doula, I'm devoted to creating a nurturing space for women to tap into their own strength, resilience, and intuition. I believe that every woman deserves to be seen, heard, and supported throughout her journey into motherhood. My heart is committed to guiding women in embracing their unique experiences, trusting their inner wisdom, and unfolding into the fullness of their own power.

It was so wonderful having Jessica support me through my labor and delivery. She made me feel comfortable and was so helpful offering different techniques to try to work through the contractions and pushing phase. I am so thankful to have had her help!

She helped our son develop a strong, consistent schedule (both day and night), which made a huge difference for everyone’s sleep and sanity. She was also an amazing resource for postpartum support—always ready with thoughtful advice and encouragement when we needed it most. In addition, Leah is flexible and truly does her best to accommodate any schedule changes. She always made us feel like our family’s well-being was her top priority.

Cory Atkins

I believe birth gives us the opportunity to become who we're designed to be. I am honored to be a part of a woman's initiation into motherhood and womanhood. I look forward to connecting with you!

Cory Atkins became my Doula during my sixth month of pregnancy. Before connecting with her, I was not going to use the service for my homebirth as I was not sold on the benefit after meeting with doulas in the Atlanta area and coming up unsuccessful due to feeling like a number for materialistic gain. After connecting and consulting with Cory, she completely changed that for me. I truly felt like my spirit was waiting for her. She is extremely intuitive, passionate about connecting with the clients she takes on and exudes a natural maternal power through knowledge and touch that blew me away. Her energy is very calming and welcoming, just like an old friend. After our initial consultation, she jumped right in and missed not one beat. I was able to open up to her easily and dig through layers of the emotional aspects of pregnancy that I was silently dealing with and go through my thoughts around having my first child naturally at home with all that is happening in the world . Cory was the complete package for me. She is very aware of energy and will not hesitate to remain flexible by checking in when she feels the need, scheduling extra sessions or even going virtual. As I reached the end of this pregnancy, her services shifted to comfort management, where she also educated my partner, and prepared my mind for the labor process. She is truly a gem of extreme benefit to anything that she is a part of and I am so grateful for the value she adds to my journey daily. Passion Burcy, First time mom

Karoline West

Hello, I am Karoline and I cannot wait to support you! I am a DONA international trained doula. I became a doula because as a mom, a sister, and a friend I see the lack of support we have in today’s time. I want to be apart of your village!

Karoline was my doula for my first baby after a year of trying and a few losses. I was honestly terrified of labor and had a very quick progression from barely cramping to my girl in my arms in about twelve hours. She helped me so much before and during labor, easing all my anxieties and making everything such a calm, positive experience. She provided me with lots of info on how to cope with late stage pregnancy and breastfeeding, and coached me through my labor in exactly the way I needed. After I brought my sweet girl home, she came over and brought food and postpartum supplies, helped us figure out a routine and what we needed for pumping and bottle feeding so my partner could do some nights, and even helped pick up around the house while we got to enjoy a home cooked meal together for the first time in days. My first few weeks postpartum were so much easier with her support. I am so grateful I had her to help me through this experience and would recommend her to any mother looking for a hands-on, attentive, caring doula.
