My name is Genicia Battle, known in the Ifá community as Ifáfúnké Àṣọre. I am a Full Circle Doula and Birth Companion, trained through the SMC Full Circle Doula Birth Companion Training. A program rooted in the cultural, historical, and spiritual traditions of African American midwifery and birth work. I became a doula because every birthing person deserves to feel seen, supported, and spiritually connected throughout their journey. I know the difference it makes to birth in a space that feels warm, honoring, and sacred. My vision is to offer families not only emotional and spiritual support, but also culturally rooted healing tools that nurture the womb, body, and soul. Birth is not just a moment! It is a portal! My purpose is to ensure that every mother steps through it feeling whole, powerful, and profoundly connected to her divine nature.

At Idaji I provide full-spectrum doula support that honors the sacred journey of motherhood through ancestral care, herbal healing, and holistic guidance. My services are designed to meet you where you are. Whether you are preparing for birth, navigating labor, or restoring balance in the postpartum period. I offer care packages that include birth planning, nutritional guidance, herbal support, and spiritual preparation to help you feel grounded and confident as you prepare to welcome your baby. I provide continuous emotional, physical, and spiritual support with techniques such as breathwork, massage, rebozo positioning, and advocacy to protect your birth vision. We have care packages that honor the sacred first 40 days after birth with belly binding, herbal baths, nourishing meal support, and emotional wellness practices that help mothers rest, restore, and bond with their babies. In addition, I offer specialized care options such as sibling support during labor and postpartum, antepartum care for high-risk pregnancies or bed rest, and fertility & womb healing services that blend herbal traditions, bodywork, and spiritual alignment. Each service is rooted in the belief that mothers deserve a village of care, and I walk alongside you with compassion, wisdom, and intention at every stage of your journey.
I am honored to have crossed paths with Genicia. She is truly a blessing in my life. I shared my pregnancy journey and expressed my desire for a holistic doula. Well, let me tell you, she was incredibly responsive to my texts and calls, no matter the time of day. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always has a listening ear, ready to provide solutions. She is not afraid to let me know that certain aspects of my pregnancy concerns do not fall within her scope of practice and that WE should discuss them with my OB. I truly appreciate her willingness to provide me with a curated tea I take daily, affirmations to boost my spirits, and a listening ear to my concerns. If you are in Texas area and seeking a knowledgeable, understanding, and holistic doula, she will always be my top choice. I still have a few more months of my pregnancy journey, but I am confident that you will see more written reviews from me as we explore the transitioning times of birthing and postpartum together.

I purchased the tea and it has been very beneficial on my post partum journey. Healing from my fifth c-section I’ve been able to get up and move with far less pain than previously before having the tea. And it taste good too!

From the very first moment I contacted Genicia, she was incredibly caring and attentive to my daughter’s postpartum needs. Her communication was always clear and on time, and everything she did was filled with genuine love and dedication. The meals she prepared were not only delicious but deeply nourishing — made with so much heart. Genicia truly goes above and beyond; her presence brings comfort, support, and peace of mind. I’m so grateful for her and would choose her again without a second thought. Thank you, Genicia, for sharing your knowledge and for doing everything with such kindness and love.❤️

Choosing Genicia was one of the best decisions I made for my pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the very first consultation, I felt seen, heard, and held with so much compassion. During labor she guided me through in ways that made such a difference. She also reminded me of my strength and gave me the confidence to birth my baby on my own terms. But the her care didn’t end! After the birth what truly amazed me was the sacred postpartum support. The herbal baths, belly binding, and nourishing meals helped my body heal in ways I never experienced with my first child. She even created space for my emotions and spiritual well being, which I didn’t realize I needed until I felt the difference. Genicia held me like family! every mother deserves this kind of care.
