How Much Does a Midwife or Home Birth Midwife Cost in Hendersonville, TN?

Hi I'm Iva! I am a newly certified Birth and Postpartum Doula located in Murfreesboro TN. Birth is my passion and I love to talk about it, read about it, and listen to others about it. Even more, I love to help and serve mothers who are about to go through it. Women are not meant to labor and birth alone- that is why it is my hope that I can be their hands and feet as they accomplish something that can be both hard and very beautiful work. I enjoy going outside with my husband and three little girls, reading good books, and eating good food.

I am a mom of three, a doula and we are a military family! I work with all kinds of family to support their needs and choices throughout pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum. I am also in-network provider for Tricare East and a certified lactation councilor.

I am a birth doula and herbalist who supports women and families through pregnancy, labor and early motherhood with steady, hands-on care. I began my work as an herbalist over 10 years ago and over time I felt called to step more fully into the birth space - walking closely with families during one of the most important transitions of their lives.

My name is De’ Asia Ford, and I am a passionate mother, postpartum doula, and healthcare professional with a deep commitment to supporting women and families through some of life’s most transformative moments. My personal experiences as a mother, combined with my professional background in caregiving and my passion for maternal and family wellness, have shaped my desire to create safe, compassionate, and empowering spaces for new and growing families. Sacred Steps Doula Care was created from my belief that every mother deserves to feel supported, heard, respected, and cared for throughout her postpartum journey. My philosophy is rooted in nurturing the whole person, physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually, while honoring each family’s unique needs, values, traditions, and parenting choices. I believe postpartum support is not about telling a mother how to parent; it is about walking beside her, providing encouragement, practical support, education, reassurance, and a judgment free presence as she finds her confidence in motherhood. Through Sacred Steps Doula Care, my goal is to help families transition into parenthood with greater peace, confidence, and a sense of connection, reminding every mother that she does not have to take this sacred step alone.

Hi! I’m Morgan, a holistic doula based in Spring Hill, TN. With a passion for pregnancy, birth and postpartum support, I advocate for women to choose the path that resonates with them, blending traditional midwifery and free birth philosophies. Having personally experienced the enchantment of childbirth twice as a mother, I aspire to guide and empower other moms on their magical journey. At 25, a wife, and a mother of two boys (3 and 6 months), I bring a unique perspective to my practice. Balancing holistic approaches with an understanding of the essential role of western medical intervention, I ensure a supportive and diverse approach to each pregnancy. As a former hairstylist, I’ve transitioned my passion for nurturing to the realm of birth. Outside of doula work, you’ll find me indulging my Scorpio spirit, watercolor painting, enjoying music, and perhaps a bit too passionately savoring my coffee. Let’s embark on your birthing journey together, embracing the magic and empowerment it brings!

Hi! I am mom to 10 children, birth activist, doula, and childbirth educator. I work hard to change the birth culture in Nashville by educating doulas, improving birth and baby loss care in the local hospitals, organizing Empower Your Birth conferences, donating peanut balls to 14 area hospitals, changing the TN newborn eye ointment law to be more favorable to parents, and fighting for parents/doulas rights during Covid. I have over 28 years of experience with pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding.

Hi friends! Tara Frigaard here as a new doula, fresh out of her training at the HBI academy. I am continuing to work as an L&D nurse while I slowly work towards completing my certification. I bring 9 years of experience with me as both a postpartum and labor& delivery nurse. I want to walk alongside women into parenthood with peace and confidence to bring about my transformation rather than trauma.

Greetings! My name is Willow, mother to a sweet little girl named Alierah. After my own pregnancy and freebirth with my daughter, a fire was lit in me to find my place in birth work. That calling led me to become a doula; I desire to support and uplift mamas through their own birth journeys, and to help families find their innate wisdom when it comes to birth. I'm holistic minded with a passion for sovereign birth in all settings - hospital or home- and a special spot in my heart for freebirth. I offer sincere, compassionate care, with a deep respect for the sacredness of birth. Birth is a hurricane- it's messy, it's hard. It's also beautiful and empowering. If you're transitioning from maiden to mother for the first time, or traveling through the inward journey of labor once again, I'd be deeply honored to walk with you and serve you... and to nourish your family with love and loyalty during this transformative time in your life.

Daisy grew up in a small town in Alaska with her 6 siblings. She has always had a huge interest in pregnancy and birth, as she attended many of her aunts midwife prenatal visits and even one of her births at a young age. In January 2019, Daisy decided to move forward in pursuing a job in the birth worker world. She discovered what a birth doula was and soon found a certification program in Nashville TN that offered everything she was wanting. She was working in the Army as a military police at the same time as she was doing her certification, so the process took a little longer than expected but it allowed her to truly educate herself and work towards this new lifestyle for herself. When not doing birth work, Daisy enjoys spending time with her boyfriend and his three children. They do many outdoor activities to include; water parks, camping, fishing, and swimming. Daisy is certified as a labor and birth doula through Blissful Birthing TN, certified as a childbirth educator through Childbirth International, and certified as a placenta encapsulation specialist through Brilliant Birth Academy.
