I'm Taylor, your dedicated birth and postpartum doula. As a native of Dallas, my life's journey has been a blend of enriching experiences and fulfilling adventures, all of which have guided me to my true calling—supporting new families during the prenatal & postpartum period. Right after college, I embarked on a transformative adventure to Thailand. Living and teaching in this beautiful country was an eye-opening experience that profoundly shaped my worldview. It was here that I found my inspiration to live freely, purposefully, and in service to others. In my everyday life, I love juicing and cooking. When I’m not assisting families, you can find me hiking the trails around Dallas, reading or traveling. I also cherish going to the movies. Pregnancy and postpartum are crucial for both the baby and the parents. As your birth/postpartum doula, my goal is to provide unwavering support, compassionate care, and practical guidance. Drawing from my holistic experiences and nurturing spirit, I am here to ensure that this transition is as smooth and joyful as possible for you and your family. I look forward to working with you and supporting your family during this precious time. Together, we can create a nurturing environment where both you and your baby can thrive.

My philosophy as a midwife is rooted in both extensive personal experience and dedicated education. As a mother of five boys, including two natural births, one of which was born at home, I've lived through the very experiences I now guide others through. This invaluable perspective, combined with my Associate's in Midwifery from the MEAC Accredited Southwest Wisconsin Technical College and a Bachelor's from Texas Tech, has equipped me to serve as a midwife since 2022. I believe in fostering a supportive environment where birthing individuals feel heard, respected, and empowered to make informed choices throughout their pregnancy and birth journey.

**If you are unable to afford a doula, I offer low to no cost service every month to a limited amount of families. Let me be your personal hype woman. I am an Air Force Veteran turned Birth Worker. I became a doula because while in the military, I was displaced from having a support system. When I got pregnant, I had to give birth in a community that looked nothing like me. I was also wildly uninformed about the rates of maternal morbidity amongst black women. These coupled ideas made me feel really uneasy about my birthing experience. I wanted to make a difference after my experience and becoming a doula turned out to be my life's passion. I pride myself on being open-minded, spiritual, and will provide you with a calm reassuring presence during your pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum.

I am a Doula in training through DONA International. I have completed all required and necessary course work and classes to become an active professional Doula. DONA International is the most well respected and sought after organization for doulas to learn, train, and grow. I am looking forward to begin my journey of helping families and mom’s create a positive, meaningful, and cherished birth story.

Doula

Hi there! I’m Amanda, the body & soul behind Solstice Birthwork. I became a certified full-spectrum doula through the TrustHer initiative to improve maternal health in Tarrant County. I offer support for fertility, pregnancy, postpartum and lactation in Fort Worth and the surrounding metroplex. My own experiences with pregnancy, labor, postpartum & lactation fueled me to develop a space where all families could be heard, honored & allowed to heal. I have a passion for advocacy & informed consent, I recognize the need for modern medicine but love a good holistic option first, and probably know every word to TSwift’s discography.

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.
