Hi, my name is Autumn! As a postpartum doula it is my honor to take care of you during your postpartum period. It is my goal that every mother have a smooth transition whether you are a new mom or a mom of more than one child. I am a mother to three wonderful children ages 4,2, and 10 months. After the birth of my first child I sat there in the hospital bed thinking, "what now? what do I do with this baby?" It was a terrible feeling, and in that moment I had never felt more alone. Shortly after I developed postpartum anxiety and postpartum depression. These feelings were really challenging to deal with and taught me that it is important to seek postpartum support early on. I want other people to know that they do not have to go through the postpartum period alone, I will be there every step of the way. I look forward to getting to know you! ​

Namaste! I’m Tory Whitney; birth and postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, sleep consultant, mindfulness and Hypno Babies, educator, intuitive guide, and author of Sacred Sleep on Amazon. I am the founder of Whispering Lullabies, bringing 7 years of perinatal experience and over 30 years of hands-on childcare experience into the families I serve. I support parents through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and infant sleep with a calm, regulation-first, whole-family approach that honors both science and intuition. As a sleep consultant, my work is guided by a core belief: sleep is not forced or trained through distress—it is conditioned through safety, nervous-system regulation, and connection. I blend evidence-based physiology, nervous-system education, mindfulness, and intuitive attunement to help babies and parents settle into sustainable sleep rhythms—without rigid or one-size-fits-all methods. My birth and postpartum services mirror this belief. I believe parenthood is more than a transition—it is a sacred awakening. My mission is to help families feel seen, supported, and deeply aligned with their instincts as they move through birth, bonding, and beyond. Through in-home and virtual care, I hold space for families to soften, settle, and trust themselves—one breath, one night, one season at a time.

Hello everyone, I am Danielle and I am a student midwife and Postpartum Doula in Newport News. I am a recent graduate from Hampton University.  All the facets of birth are my joy and passion and I'm always curious to learn more.  My goal is to empower parents, foster their confidence, and create a nurturing environment where they can bond with their new baby and navigate the joys and challenges of parenthood with greater ease. I enjoy traveling and being in nature. 

I decided I wanted to Start my birthworker journey, when my unmedicated natural birth turned into a emergency C-section. Even though, I had labored at a birth center with 2 midwives. The decides to transfer me after several days of prodromal labor. My experience at the hospital was very traumatic, and left me unaware and sad. I didn’t have anyone to talk to about my experience. But my doula encouraged me to talk about it. I realized I wanted to be for other pregnant women and make a difference in how we care for pregnant women during and after their pregnancy. As a POC birthworker, I am dedicated to help women of all walks connect better with their bodies and babies,throughout their pregnancy and postpartum journey.my mission is to prepare women by educating them about their birth rights, pregnancy/labor & medical interventions.I want women to feel more empowered and confident in every aspect about their birth. I am determined to increase awareness of birthing trauma; even more so, for women of color. I believe if we implement the holistic approach of our ancestors, entitled to the birthing mother, we can create a meaningful and powerful birth experience every time.
