Nourish and Bloom with Rayna is a heart-centered practice dedicated to bridging the gap between pregnancy, birth, and postpartum life. With a holistic approach, I guide pregnant individuals through the transformative journey of birth while fostering deep, lasting connections between mothers and their babies. Specializing in doula support and lactation counseling, I am passionate about creating a nurturing space where breastfeeding relationships can flourish and grow. Together, we’ll honor your body’s wisdom, celebrate your strength, and embrace the beauty of motherhood in its most natural, connected form. Let’s nourish, bloom, and thrive—together.

Hello there! I have been a registered nurse for over 30 years but my passion is for birth work. I have certifications in breastfeeding education, doula support, placental encapsulation and several others. My family just moved to Ohio this past Spring and I'm looking forward to serving a new community.

April has spent over twenty years working with pregnant people and their babies. Attending over 1,500 births has convinced her that everyone deserves evidence-based information and unconditional support, and that when those things are offered, creating and birthing our babies can be a powerful and transformative experience. This is the foundation of all of her work. April has her masters in midwifery, is a Certified Professional Midwife, IBCLC Lactation Consultant, massage therapist specializing in pregnancy, birth and postpartum with an emphasis on Craniosacral Therapy and SomatoEmotional Release, and is an author and nutrition coach focusing on women’s health. She is also the founder of the Birth With Spirit Doula Certification program. “April is very gifted! She is helping me through a
difficult pregnancy. She listens and assesses the
problem and is very knowledgeable of the anatomy
and treats the person as a whole. I highly recommend her!” - Linzie Crute

Congratulations on your new little bundle! I am here to hold the mother as she holds her child during birth. I provide labor and postpartum support. To find out more please visit my website, I look forward to hearing from you.

There is truly nothing more empowering than bringing your baby into this world. I believe in the natural process of birth; that mothers are wise, strong, intuitive, & capable. My goal as your doula is to support you, make you feel heard, & encourage & honor you in whatever your preferences may be. My hope is to give you the education & resources to feel confident in your choices, & be a balanced viewpoint throughout your pregnancy & birth. Your birth experience is YOURS. I will always respect that & advocate for YOU.

Hi My name is Toria. 🎨 Artist | 🌿 Doula | 📍Dayton, OH Support for birth, postpartum & beyond Evidence-based. Heart-led. Inclusive.

HI. I’m Abbey, the other half of Kindred, a doula partnership I share with my amazing sister-in-law! I am a wife to my long-time boyfriend, a mother to two wild & free girls, a sister, a friend, a nurse, a small business owner, a musician, &, most recently & excitingly, a doula. I live in the rural greater Dayton area on a piece of land back a long lane, nestled against a wood of trees. It’s becoming my oasis, my resting place, our haven to grow and make memories. I am a lover of adventure and the term “settling down” or “forever home” has always terrified me, but the past few years of some intense grief and loss have taught me that a quiet space to grow into your own, to rest, is a gift and a privilege. I am grateful. My mothering tendency is becoming. With the birth of my first came the birth of my mama heart and a wonder beyond wonder. I surprised myself with the way this season was becoming my absolute best one yet. A cumulation of immense loss and grief, another pregnancy, and the birth of my second baby girl, was followed by a season of despair, as I can now call it looking back. A miscarriage followed and left me bare bones and not thriving. Today I find myself growing into who I am as a mama. I find great joy in watching my girls grow and become, great anxiety in the “what ifs” of their little lives, and am overstimulated way easier than I ever imagined possible. You’ll find us playing in the woods, splashing in water of some kind, taking trips to the library & coffee shop, making so many random breakfasts/lunches, meeting with friends, playing dress-up or make-believe of one kind of another, & soaking up the sunshine. When I’m not mumming, I’ll be reading, playing guitar, walking, working as a homecare nurse, having deep conversations with my guy, waxing nostalgic, drinking black coffee or red wine, & eating fruit of some kind, or recently more than ever, sitting & staring to find some mental rest (anyone else?). It’s so good to meet you here. I am so honored to be entering this sacred space of pregnancy, birth, & womanhood, & am looking forward to getting to know you. We’re here for it all, and want more than anything for this to become a “soft space to land”. I pursued my birth doula and lactation support training with a DONA certified doula, and am now pursuing certification myself. I am also a RN-BSN. Although I am not operating from this title while in the birth doula space, I do bring this background and experience.

I am new to the area of Dayton I also services Columbus and surrounding area, I am taking new clients in Dayton and surrounding area. so please reach out to me, even if it's just questions I also offer encapsulation services

A trailblazer and advocate for women’s health and wellness, Dr. Alicia C.
