Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Grand Rapids, MI

Hi there! My name is Lauren and I am a birth doula located in Grand Haven, MI. I’m here to support you through your individual birth journey.

I'm a newly practicing doula from west michigan!

I am Stephanie, a full spectrum Doula located in Muskegon, MI - I provide support in person & also virtually. As a full spectrum Doula I service Birth, Postpartum & also loss clients. I am a Spiritual Doula who also offers Reiki Healing, Herbal Teas, Yoni Steams & Bath Salts.

I grew up in west Michigan, cradled by the crescent moon grin of the Great Lakes. My desire to become a doula first took root in experiences I had volunteering with local organizations and non-profits when I was in high school. My passion for community-based care began in the basement of a neighborhood church, where I first volunteered with a non-profit organization dedicated to helping families find and keep secure housing for their children. From these initial experiences, I got to witness first-hand how important it is for families to be well-informed and unconditionally supported in order to thrive together. The roots of my work as a doula and student midwife are the same as they were back then, before I even began birth work : when families are given non-judgemental support and evidence-based education during their transition into parenthood, they can have the most satisfying, empowering experience possible. As a doula, I emphasize a client-centered approach where you are seen as the expert in your own care; together, using support and education, we will create a birth / postpartum plan that supports the health and well-being of you, your baby, and your support team.

I am a holistic birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator.

Hi! I’m Elizabeth! After years of supporting women at a pregnancy resource center, I saw how many mothers felt unseen, unheard, and overwhelmed during pregnancy and birth. Too often, women are left searching for answers, carrying fear, or feeling pressured into experiences they never wanted. I knew there had to be a better way. That’s what led me to become a birth and postpartum doula — to walk alongside women with grace, encouragement, and unwavering support through pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum. I believe women were beautifully created for birth and deserve to feel empowered, informed, and deeply cared for every step of the way. With a calm, compassionate presence rooted in my Christian faith, I’m here to help you feel seen, supported, and confident as you prepare to welcome your baby and begin the journey of motherhood. Proudly serving families in these Michigan counties: Mecosta, Montcalm, Kent, Newaygo, Osceola, and Isabella.

My name is Claire and I am starting my doula journey. I feel that I have been called to support women during pregnancy and postpartum. I'm outgoing, supportive of your choices as a mother, and a great listener. I am skilled at de-escalating situations in which you may feel panicked or afraid, and explain things in simple terms so that they aren't overwhelming. I will advocate for you in whatever situation you need, whether with a high-pressure medical provider or your nosy mother-in-law. I have worked with children 5 to 18 years old who have mental, physical, and emotional handicaps as well as a multitude of students who have Autism Spectrum Disorder. Working with these students has brought me so much joy and understanding of a world that can be very hard to explain to those with no experience in it. Whether it is you, your children, or loved ones who identify with the previous disorders, I would be beyond honored and ecstatic to help work through the crazy mystery and miracle of birth. I am currently going through the certification process to be a doula and need to attend three births to be fully certified. I am looking to help anyone I can in this process.

Hey there, I am a young woman who has a heart for God, birth, and serving others. I started my birth work journey when I was seventeen years old, and have fallen in love with supporting other women in pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. I took my Doula training a year ago through Your Cherished Birth, and have been working on achieving my certification since then. Like everything else, I believe our bodies have been designed perfectly and without flaw, by God. Birth should not be an abnormal, impossible and scary thing, but rather a natural, beautiful and empowering experience. And this is more easily achieved with a Doula at your side reminding you to take care of yourself, advocating for you and your husband, and giving you ways to cope with the intensity of labor.

I am a licensed certified professional midwife with a bachelor's degree in the science of Midwifery. I have been licensed since July 2023.

I am a God fearing, Bible believing home schooling mama and dedicated wife to my husband Patrick. A little goofy, a little sunshine, and I love singing at births while waiting on babies.
