Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Lafayette, LA

I'm Saleemah and I am a mother of 2, a boy and girl. Working under my mother who was a midwife, and having my own children influenced me to take the journey into becoming a Birth Doula and Lactation consultant. Helping mothers through their pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding journey is my passion.

I feel honored to be able to share my expertise with women and families around Baton Rouge and surrounding areas. As a doula, I approach each birth with empathy, understanding, and a commitment to providing personalized support. I am committed to providing education & services to those who face disparities-those who are at an increased risk for complications and or death during childbirth. As a young nurse, I became fascinated with pregnant women and newborns and was quickly drawn to women's healthcare. As a mother of three and a practicing OB/GYN nurse has led me to becoming a doula. I became a doula because I’m passionate about supporting individuals during the transformative journey of childbirth. It’s gratifying to offer guidance, comfort, and encouragement during such a significant and profound moment in people’s lives.
