Hi there! My name’s Kira, and I’m a holistic, heart-centered doula serving families in central Missouri and beyond. I believe pregnancy, birth, and parenthood are transformative, emotional rites of passage and deserve more than just clinical care. I’m here to care for you in the ways that count: truly getting to know you, investing in our relationship, listening to your fears and anxieties, and always pointing you back to your strength, your faith, and your love. It’s the greatest honor to journey alongside you as your life changes forever, and it’s my goal to bring more warmth, enthusiasm, encouragement, and presence into these tender times when families need the most support.

I offer Birth and Postpartum Doula packages that can be customized to your needs for the childbearing year. Add-ons include birth photography, birth story sessions, and postpartum in-home meal preparation and meal deliveries. The goal is for you to feel safe, seen, supported, and deeply nourished by our relationship.
This was my fourth baby. In the past I had heard about doulas, but I was undecisive. Talking to Kira convinced me that I really wanted a doula. She was so sweet and caring. I didn't want to miss out on having someone like her next to me to support me during birth. Kira really helped me to accomplish my goals and feel more relaxed during the birthing process. Kira is so sweet she radiates warmth and compassion. From day one I felt like she really cared about me and wanted to help me.
