About me
Hello Mamas! I am a fully-trained birth and postpartum doula, but I currently have reduced fees as I gain experience and obtain full certification. My background is in Early Childhood and Special Education. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in education, and I worked with children for many years. I am also a mother of four and stayed home with my children for several years. I have a passion for all things birth and recently decided that I wanted to spend the next chapter of my life as a birth worker. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you during your pregnancy, labor and postpartum journey!

I will support you throughout your labor and birth and stay with you until you and your family are comfortable after the birth. There will be one follow-up postnatal visit within the first few weeks after your baby is born. Additional postpartum services are available. Postpartum doula services are customized to each family's needs.

Ratings and reviews
Jenny supported the birth of my son last year at Vanderbilt and I am grateful to have her by my side. I found Jenny on DoulaMatch late in my pregnancy but after one phone call I knew she would be a great choice. Jenny has a calm, peaceful, and loving demeanor. She was able to support my last few weeks of birth prep and helped me navigate the unplanned events of delivery. I highly recommend Jenny if you're looking for a Doula in Nashville!

Jenny was an absolute saint as our doula! She was knowledgeable, kind, genuine, and incredibly respectful of our birth plan and goals. I’d highly recommend her and Birth Confidence Doula Services to everyone looking to make their birth a positive experience!
- Lindsey Chrismon
Choosing Jenny as our doula was the single decision that best prepared my husband and I for the birth of our first child. We wanted to have as natural a pregnancy and birth as possible, and Jenny helped provide us with tools and information to make it happen. She was a great listener and brought a professional and calm energy that made me much more confident as I approached my due date. We ended up choosing to switch OB’s very last minute, and she assisted us in finding new care that was a better fit. The birth of our son was quick and all natural, exactly what we wanted. If you are thinking about hiring a doula, do it! Jenny is the best in the game, you will be so happy you did it. We will be coming back for any future babies.

I hired Birth Confidence as a postpartum doula after the birth of my first child, and it was a LIFE SAVER/GAME CHANGER for my mental health, stress levels, and overall wellbeing as a first-time mom. Just having Jenny around so I wasn't alone after my husband went back to work was SO beneficial in navigating such an emotionally and physically intense experience. She was my sounding board for new mom concerns and my source of advice for newborn questions (she's a mom of 3 so has lots of experience). She helped me with my daughter when I needed a break, did dishes, folded laundry, and cooked meals for my husband and I (which were SO good!). I highly recommend hiring Jenny as a postpartum doula if you need support after welcoming a child (ESPECIALLY moms with other children); it makes handling the transition so much easier.

I cannot recommend Birth Confidence Doula Services enough! From the very beginning, Jenny was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive. She walked with me and my husband through every step of our journey — always available, always encouraging, and always grounded. She supported me through a 15-hour labor, and what amazed me most is that she had just come from attending a 17-hour birth before mine. Despite the exhaustion she must have felt, she showed up fully present, grounded, and committed to making sure I felt safe and supported the entire time. Her support didn’t stop after the birth. She followed up with postpartum visits, answered all my questions with clarity, and truly made me feel cared for. Her presence made such a difference in my experience, and I’ll always be grateful for her dedication and heart. If you’re looking for someone to support you through one of life’s most vulnerable and powerful moments, I wholeheartedly recommend Birth Confidence Doula Services. You’ll be in the very best hands.

I highly recommend Jenny if you’re looking for a fantastic doula! She was so knowledgeable and helpful not just during labor but also leading up to the big day and postpartum. My husband and I were so thrilled we hired her.
- Rachel Riley
Jenny was phenomenal and I am so grateful I chose her to be at my birth. From the moment I talked to her on the phone I knew I had a good feeling about her. She was so attentive to me and my needs prior to birth, and during my birth she was amazing. She showed up for me just how I needed. I didn’t need words to communicate to her, she just seemed to know what I needed. She empowered and prepared my husband prior and during the birth, and them two together made my natural birth possible. I felt so comfortable with her there and she was a kind and comforting presence at all times. She was one of my angels. I cannot recommend Jenny enough. I am grateful she believed in me. Anyone is lucky to have her as their doula 🩷
