Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Houston, TX

Shalom! My name is ChayilYah Segulah and it means capable women of God and His hidden Treasure! My doula journey started 10 years ago when one of my sisters needed support during her birth journey. She didn't have any support and needed someone to advocate her needs, help her express her fears and to walk her through a new birth. I began studying ways that I could help and ways to answer the questions she didn't understand. My Philosophy Sisterhood~ Village~ Shalom (Peace) This is my philosophy! Birth is ordained and designed to be a normal, natural process that your body was perfectly and wonderfully made to experience. My desire as your birth sister is to support you in a way that allows and encourages you to achieve your goals and desires for birth. I would love to become a part of your village.

Caring for babies and supporting new families has always been a real part of who I am. Before I ever earned certifications, I was already the person everyone trusted with their newborns, toddlers, and the most sensitive moments of early parenting. Becoming a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula simply helped me put skill and structure behind something that has always come naturally to me. I understand how overwhelming the newborn stage can feel from the exhaustion, the learning curve, the emotions that come with healing and adjusting and my goal is to bring calm, confidence, and comfort into a family’s home. I take my time learning each baby’s unique cues and each mother’s individual needs so I can support both in a gentle, respectful, and compassionate way. i believe every family deserves to feel supported, every baby deserves to feel safe, and every mother deserves to be cared for during one of the most important transitions of her life. I believe in nurturing the whole family, not just the newborn, by creating peaceful routines, offering evidence based guidance, and providing help that feels loving rather than intrusive. Whether I’m assisting with nighttime care, helping a mom rest and recover, supporting feeding goals, or creating a comfortable rhythm in the home, I show up with patience, kindness, and understanding. My intention is always the same to make those early days feel lighter, to help parents feel more confident, and to leave families feeling stronger than when I arrived.

Hi mama! My name is McKenzie. While my official title is Birth and Postpartum Doula, I see myself more as an extra person in your village. We thrive in community, but as mothers? We flourish when supported by other women ("Two are better than one..." – Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Outside of birth work, I am a wife, a mom of two young girls, and an avid crocheter. My own path to motherhood was a long journey marked by grief and disappointment— if you’ve ever been in that space, know that I see you. Since then, my passion has been teaching women about how their bodies work according to God’s design, navigating the unexpected, but most importantly, my passion is and always will be serving moms. Do you need 30 minutes to shower in silence? I’m there. Do you need someone to cook a hot, homemade meal so you can spend more time with your baby? I’ve got you. Do you need someone to decode medical jargon one minute and then immediately do hip squeezes and tell you how amazing you’re doing? I would love to. On the surface, I’m a doula who would love to help you through the journey of motherhood. But at my core? I’m just a mama who has been praying for the families who need a village to find me. I would be honored to serve yours.

Hi, I’m Anna, the heart behind Newborn Ease. I created Newborn Ease to provide expecting and new parents with calm, practical support during one of the biggest transitions of their lives. I believe preparing for and caring for a new baby shouldn’t leave parents feeling overwhelmed, judged, or like they have to figure everything out alone. My philosophy is simple: educate, support, and empower. Whether I’m helping a family prepare their home for baby, get organized, learn newborn-care basics, or simply feel more confident during those early days, my goal is to meet each family where they are with patience, compassion, and respect. Every family is different, and I believe support should feel personal, encouraging, and judgment-free. At Newborn Ease, it’s about more than preparing for baby—it’s about helping parents feel prepared, supported, and confident too. 🤍

Hello! My name is Angela and I grew up in Houston TX, in the land of bbq and “y’all”. Im a Latino woman born and raised in Houston. My father was born in Venezuela and mother, on the Alabama Coushatta reservation near Livingston. I grew up in a large family amongst 6 siblings who taught me how important it is to take into account a plurality of perspectives and experiences. I am trained as a birth and postpartum doula through Doula Trainings International and have a wealth of information I acquired through research, education, and life experience. I believe in the popular education model, and see that education doesn't follow hierarchical pathways; it always flows in both directions. I’m also a research nerd. I believe that Doula support helps lay the groundwork for a satisfying experience. As a Full Spectrum Doula, i see the pregnant person and their loved ones as the center around which care revolves. I operate as a pillar to the family and their relationship becomes a solid foundation you can rely on providing consistency, information, and a therapeutic presence as you all navigate physical and emotional tides, and as your experience unfolds.
