My journey as a birth and postpartum doula began over five years ago from a deep calling to support families during one of the most transformative seasons of their lives. I have always believed that birth and the postpartum period are not just medical events, but sacred transitions that deserve care rooted in dignity, advocacy, emotional safety, and education. Through my work with Affirmative Parenting Solutions LLC and Love How You Heal, I have had the privilege of walking alongside diverse families, offering evidence-informed, trauma-responsive, and faith-centered doula care. As a birth doula, I have supported clients through a wide range of birth experiences, including unmedicated vaginal births, epidural-assisted labors, inductions, and cesarean deliveries. One client I supported was a first-time mother who entered labor with significant anxiety due to a previous traumatic medical experience. My role included prenatal education sessions focused on understanding the birth process, coping strategies for labor, and clarifying her birth preferences. During labor, I provided continuous emotional reassurance, hands-on comfort measures such as counter-pressure and guided breathing, and advocacy support to ensure her voice was respected in the delivery room. After birth, she shared that having a consistent, calm presence made her feel empowered and safe during a process she once feared. In the postpartum setting, my work has centered on supporting families as they adjust physically, emotionally, and practically to life with a newborn. I have provided overnight and daytime postpartum care for families navigating sleep deprivation, feeding challenges, and emotional overwhelm. For example, I supported a family welcoming their second child while managing postpartum mood concerns. Services included infant care so the parent could rest, assistance with breastfeeding positioning and pumping routines, light household support, and emotional check-ins to normalize the highs and lows of the postpartum experience. I also helped connect the family to additional mental health and community resources when needed, reinforcing that asking for help is a strength, not a weakness. Through Affirmative Parenting Solutions LLC, my doula practice has emphasized inclusive, affirming care that meets families where they are. I have worked with single parents, blended families, and families from culturally diverse backgrounds, ensuring that care plans are personalized, respectful, and responsive. My services often include childbirth education, birth planning, labor support, postpartum recovery education, newborn care guidance, and sibling adjustment support. With Love How You Heal, my work integrates a healing-centered approach that acknowledges the emotional and spiritual dimensions of birth and parenting. I support clients in processing their birth experiences, rebuilding confidence in their bodies, and nurturing their mental and emotional well-being. This includes intentional listening, reflective support, and practical tools for self-regulation during the postpartum period. Across all settings, my approach is grounded in advocacy, compassion, and empowerment. I believe every parent deserves to feel informed, supported, and affirmed in their choices. Whether I am providing hands-on labor support, postpartum education, or simply holding space for a parent to be seen and heard, my goal remains the same: to walk alongside families with care that honors their strength, resilience, and unique journey into parenthood.

Hi I’m Q! I chose to become a doula because I believe every family deserves compassionate care, informed choices, and unwavering support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My goal is to create a calm, reassuring presence while helping families feel confident, respected, and empowered in their unique birth journey. This work is deeply meaningful to me, and I am honored to walk alongside families during such a transformative and sacred time in their lives.
