Jessica is an absolute gift. She walked with me from prenatal to delivery and I am forever grateful for that. Jessica communicated quickly and thoughtfully when I needed her virtually, offering advice and encouragement when I needed it most. When she arrived during labor, she became everything I needed. She was able to read the room and mood to know if I needed encouragement or options or if I just needed to vent or cry. The way she carries herself with her knowledge, the nurses and providers also respected her which created the most joyous environment for birth. I wasn’t able to see her during delivery but I could hear her words of encouragement ringing through the room. One of my other supporter persons told me Jessica jumped for joy when my daughter was born. That’s who she is- someone who knows birth, loves moms, loves birth and will literally jump for joy with you!

Destiny Smith-Milner

Certification verified

Hi there! I’m Destiny! I’m a Columbus native, wife, proud mom to a sweet 3-year-old, and career childcare professional with over a decade of experience. My background spans several different areas of childcare, from my career as a private nanny and founding my own event childcare company, Social Sitters, to doula work, postpartum support, and newborn care. Since 2020, I’ve found a special passion for supporting families through the newborn and postpartum stages, which is where I’m choosing to now focus my expertise. As both a mother and childcare professional, I understand firsthand how exciting, yet overwhelming, the transition into parenthood can be. While I bring years of knowledge and hands on experience, my goal is to ultimately support and empower parents to feel confident in the choices that work best for them and their little ones. I pride myself on offering a warm, down to earth approach to care without compromising the professionalism and respect every family deserves. I look forward to connecting with your family!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the care and support I received during my postpartum experience. Having my first baby was one of the most beautiful, emotional, and overwhelming experiences of my life, and having such a supportive person made all the difference. From the moment I gave birth, I felt cared for, heard, and supported. The postpartum period comes with so many new emotions, questions, and adjustments, especially as a first-time mom. The kindness, patience, encouragement, and reassurance I received helped me feel more confident and comfortable as I navigated motherhood for the first time. I truly appreciated how much Destiny took the time to check on me, answer my questions, and make sure both my baby and I were doing well. I never felt like I was just another patient. I felt genuinely cared for as a new mother during such a special and vulnerable time in my life. I will always be grateful for the compassion and support I received. Those first moments of motherhood are something I will remember forever, and having such a positive postpartum experience made them even more special. Thank you for making my transition into motherhood a little easier and for treating me with so much care and kindness!

Working with Charuta as my doula was the absolute best decision I could have made for my birth journey. After having a previous C-section and facing anxieties around weight concerns and a previous scar opening, I was extremely nervous about attempting a vaginal birth. From day one, Charuta provided incredible pre-birth guidance, education, and continuous emotional support. She brought deep clarity, compassion, and evidence-based research that completely shifted my mindset. She patiently listened to all my fears, validated my concerns, and motivated me with such empowering confidence that I finally felt ready. Her presence and continuous support during labor and the postpartum period were invaluable. Thanks to her guidance, reassurance, and steadfast advocacy, I was able to achieve the vaginal birth I hoped for. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, deeply empathetic, and empowering doula who truly cares for your physical and emotional well-being, I cannot recommend Charuta enough!

Hello everyone, It has been a while since I’ve done an introduction post. I am very happy you’re here and looking into having a doula by your side while going through the most beautiful experiences of life. ••• A little about me, I am twenty-five years old. My husband and I have two daughters. They are our pride and joy with the perfect mix of sassy and sweet. ••• I myself had a very traumatic birth in 2021 and I am very thankful for it because it has led me here, helping other mommas and doing what I have been called to do. I am a Christian Certified Doula located in the state of Ohio. As a doula, I will share all I know about pregnancy, birth, postpartum and newborn care one on one and through my page. ••• I will help you decide on a birth plan, prepare physically and mentally for birth and postpartum…As well as so much more. You deserve peace of mind whether this is your first baby or your last. ••• Having a doula throughout pregnancy has statistically been shown to shorten labor, instill confidence and trust in your body and your care team, as well as preventing unnecessary interventions. ••• I help families all over Ohio prepare for birth both virtually and locally so that parents can have the gift of readiness and ease. ••• Please check out my new website as well as my updated schedule for the next few months. ••• I am excited to continue this journey on supporting moms and helping them advocate for themselves.
