My name is Ashlyn Reese with Nurtured Beginnings, I’m a certified Doula, Birth keeper, and Postpartum doula. I currently serve families in Berks County PA and surrounding areas. I have a passion for pregnancy, physiological birth, and postpartum. My goal is to provide women and families with gentle, encouraging, and educational support that helps to build the birthing experience into a cherished family memory. I believe in traditional wisdom and that birth is a rite of passage. I am passionate about helping women awaken that power within themselves and reclaim birth. I believe in mothering the mother. I believe in our bodies divine design and its ability to bring forth life. I believe in women, not the system. I believe women were created to have a village. And I’m here not only as a doula, but as a friend, someone you can feel safe with and count on to be there through all the challenges and joys motherhood can bring.

It is my honor and delight to walk with people through the transformative journeys of life, and pregnant women and families have an amazing opportunity to embrace such a journey. Since 2022, I’ve had a fascination with childbirth and have delighted in learning about it – namely, that it can be much more amazing than anyone ever told me. Far beyond the universal hope for a safe mother and baby, birth is an incredible opportunity for encouragement, healing, and transformation in the life of the mother and family! Attending a friend’s home birth of her third child as a prayerful presence in summer of 2024 showed me that supporting women and families in this process is a wonderful way for me to serve out of my gifts. I have a BA in Christian Worship and Congregational Ministry from Messiah University and am in the process of becoming certified as a Birth Doula through Childbirth International. I serve mothers and families in the West Shore, Harrisburg, Lancaster, and York areas. Along with the title of birth doula, I resonate with the roles of minister, caregiver, pastor, sister, and guide. My experiences have taught me that our human processes are simultaneously physical, psychological, spiritual, and relational, which has given me my holistic approach to childbearing.​

 Founder of Birth Ur Way! | Doula Educator at CoCoLife.black Nyfisa C. Rabb is a proud native of Philadelphia and an alumna of Temple University, where she earned her degree in Early Childhood Education.

With more than two decades of experience, Nyfisa provides the kind of care she once longed for, support that is intentional, personal, and transformative. She finds deep fulfillment in helping families bring to life the vision they hold for their births. Her guiding belief is: 
“Your body. Your birth. Your plan.” In addition to supporting families, Nyfisa shares her expertise as a doula certification instructor with CoCoLife.black, where she trains and mentors the next generation of birth workers. Her teaching is rooted in culturally responsive, community-centered care. Nyfisa is also committed to addressing disparities in maternal health. She equips her clients with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to advocate for themselves, make informed decisions, and navigate the medical system with clarity and strength.

I am a Certified Perinatal Educator offering personalized care as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. Dedicated to empowering families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond with compassionate support.

I believe birth deserves a positive, steady space—one where you feel peaceful, informed, and confident as you prepare to meet your baby. My goal is to support your inherent wisdom and help you feel grounded through planning, labor, and the early postpartum days. I’m known for being deeply empathetic, calm, and steady. I love naps, dark chocolate, and quiet time (I’m a self-proclaimed introvert, despite what people assume!). I was called to birth work after experiencing traumatic births, postpartum depression, and profound loss with little support. Through healing and therapy, I realized I wanted to be the kind of support I once needed—so families don’t have to go through hard seasons alone. I’m a “forever student” with an active mind, and I love bringing my trainings and tools into a supportive, practical approach that helps clients feel held and empowered. When I’m not supporting families, you can find me listening to audiobooks and podcasts, gardening, making art, and laughing at dad jokes.

Hello beloved I am Larice Johnson and I am a certifying full spectrum doula supporting families in Maryland. I have been trained with two different black/POC organizations. My goal in this work is to provide space for black and POC birthers, and birthers in other marginalized communities to safely and comfortably birth in their most ideal way. I believe the only way to ensure safety and comfort throughout pregnancy, during labor/delivery and recovering through postpartum is through education and support. I plan to gather fact-based information and pair it with a gentle touch to advocate for, empower, support and love my clients through this wonderful life altering time. I am currently working with families choosing to birth in hospitals, birthing centers and private residences.

I believe that a family is born at the moment of conception and in order to best nurture their baby, a mother and often her partner, needs to be nurtured as well. As a credentialed pregnancy and infant loss doula, I also believe that your grief journey is your rite of passage to healing and hope as well. Reach out today for a free consultation to see if we can partner together for your present benefit and the future of you and your family. I’m looking forward to meeting you!
