Find a Doula Near Me in Houston, TX

Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Care Provider offering Overnight Newborn Care, Full Spectrum Mothercare and Physiologic Postpartum Education.

It was only 3 years ago my friend asked me to assist in supporting her during birth. I knew then this was the path for me. Since then I have expanded my education and completed certifications to work as a Doula and Childbirth Educator. I believe that every woman deserves to feel empowered and informed as she brings her baby into the world. As a doula I offer a range of tailored services to support you every step of the way.

I am a Spirit Baby Medicine Woman, Psychic, Mentor, and a Energy Healer. I have sat with many women and people holding space for them on their pregnancies and relationship with pregnancy. Pregnancy is sacred. It is a process of birth and co-creation each time. Co-creating with your spirit baby, your partner, your children, grandparents, and beyond. Many systems were not created to support women, even more were not created inclusive of people of color. Throughout working in Maternal Health for some years, my desire for a family catapulted me into a deep journey with my spirit babies. A safe and nurturing pregnancy where your needs are listened to and respected is your birthright. My experience of working with spirit babies and their families comes with emotional and spiritual energy work that supports families through prenatal, pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My work is designed around supporting spirit babies and their families, and spirit babies desire to connect with their parents before, during and after birth. This helps you to learn more about your spirit baby and yourself in the process through the lense of your spirit baby who loves you unconditionally. Spirit babies choose their parents as their parents choose them and they can get pregnant even after choosing not to get pregnant, or having experienced multiple attempts at pregnancy and the experience not ending in a child. It's a beautiful process of learning with your spirit baby who is both guiding and being guided by you, your partner, and others the spirit baby has chosen to help support your pregnancy with them. This is the process even when you may not have met your partner yet. It's an incredibly intimate and vulnerable process even as pregnancy is already one, a spirit baby amplifies that as they are different from those that aren't, and the desire for connection and love with their parents comes quicker and before pregnancy. Those who are drawn to my work likely have a spirit baby connection, whether mom, dad, other family members or friends. Connecting with your spirit baby helps you learn more about the little one you're birthing and challenges that may come up, as well as how to prepare for their arrival in a way that feels good for you and them. Spirit babies are often thought to be only an unborn child but they're a sensitive and highly empathic child with gifts and sensitivities that are active well after birth and can be the reason many children don't take well to being birthed in certain environments, to certain foods, being around certain people or energy, or don't feel they're loved or seen. They aren't just babies, they are wise souls with mountains of wisdom they wish to share. A child is a spirit baby after birth and into adult life. Working with spirit babies is also restarting the process of loving the self, and intuition, and listening to one's self, in each moment. I look forward to supporting your spirit baby, you, and your family.

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.

The expertise and knowledge gained from working at the hospital as well as my personal and fulfilling experience as a loving tia, has defined my path: empowering each family on their own special journey.

Peace! Birth, magnanimous as it is, is one moment that comes after months of mental and spiritual preparation. It is the intention, the mission, if you will, of Soulcology of Birth to provide more than childbirth education. I will journey alongside these burgeoning Mamas as a sister (and as I grow, auntie, Mama, GrandMother). I will help them unpack their family history, to heal, to break generational cycles of dysfunction. Soulcology of Birth is centered on the sanctity of created Life with a focus on growing Love.

Hello! My name is Shala and I’m a birth and postpartum doula in Houston, TX. I run my business and center my birth philosophy on three main principles: empathy, autonomy, and authenticity. Every Well Rooted Doula client has the right to self determination and is supported in creating the birth that they see fit. I believe in the body’s innate ability to birth and encourage clients to listen to and trust the signals their body sends them before, during, and after birth. Additionally, I believe that it’s my duty to help clients advocate for their birthing visions, wherever and however they take place. Clients are welcomed and celebrated regardless of race, socioeconomic status, nationality, sexuality, religion, or gender identity, etc. I want to support you in having a happy and joyful birth and postpartum period! To do so, I employ active listening, critical thinking, and work to create opportunities for feedback.

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

I'm Dee Art Doula, the owner of We Do'ula verything and a certified birth and postpartum doula through DONA International. With over 16 years of experience in labor & delivery and healthcare, I have always been passionate about maternal health and supporting women during the sacred transition into motherhood. As a mother of two,l am deeply aware of the maternal health crisis affecting women of color in the United States. This awareness inspired me to assist, educate, and advocate for change by supporting women before, during, and after childbirth.

La historia de mi emprendimiento comenzó con mi propia maternidad. A mis veintitantos tuve a mis hijas, y la gran diferencia fue el respaldo de mi familia: Mujeres que me sostuvieron y Hombres que me protegieron. Ese acompañamiento transformó mi experiencia y me enseñó que maternar no debería vivirse nunca en aislamiento. Años después, emigré. Como migrante, descubrí lo opuesto: la soledad de las familias hispanas que gestan y crían lejos de casa. Sin tribu, sin idioma común, en un sistema de salud eficiente pero impersonal. Esa realidad me llevó a un 'ajá' interior: Mi vocación era crear para otras lo que yo había recibido: Un NIDO de confianza, cuidado y resiliencia. Ofrezco programas que integran mi formación como doula, educadora perinatal y especialista en procesos de indagación personal. Lo que hace única esta propuesta es la capacidad de tender puentes: entre lo médico y lo humano, entre la cultura de origen y la de acogida, entre la soledad y la comunidad. Acompaño a las familias para que vivan la maternidad con confianza y resiliencia, y en ese proceso contribuyo a sembrar generaciones más empáticas y comunidades más cohesionadas.
