My name is Kiara Thomas, and I am the Certified Senior Lead Birth and Postpartum Doula and founder of Love How You Heal. I proudly serve families throughout the DFW metropolitan area and Oklahoma, offering compassionate, affirming, and holistic doula care rooted in dignity, advocacy, emotional safety, and education. My journey as a doula began over five years ago through a deep calling to support families during one of life’s most sacred and transformative seasons. I believe birth and the postpartum period are not merely medical events, but profound transitions that deserve to be honored with presence, intention, and respect. I am also a mother of five children, all of whom I birthed naturally. My personal birthing experiences deeply inform my approach to care and reinforce my belief in the body’s innate wisdom. I am passionate about creating spaces where mothers feel safe, supported, and empowered to trust their bodies, their intuition, and their unique journey. At Love How You Heal, we believe wholeheartedly that when the mother is cared for, the baby is cared for. Our doula services are thoughtfully designed to be affordable, flexible, and supportive, meeting families exactly where they are without judgment or pressure. As a birth doula, my services include prenatal education, Lamaze breathing techniques to support natural childbirth, personalized birth plan creation, continuous labor support, physical comfort measures, advocacy, and intentional partner support. My role is to protect the birthing space so a mother feels free to surrender, soften, and allow her body to do exactly what it was designed to do whether at home, a birth center, or in a hospital setting. My care philosophy is deeply rooted in holistic healing. I incorporate practices such as aromatherapy, meditation therapy, sound therapy, and water therapy to promote grounding, relaxation, and emotional regulation. This holistic approach extends beyond birth and into everyday support throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. Postpartum care at Love How You Heal centers on rest, recovery, and emotional well-being. Services include daytime and overnight newborn care, lactation guidance and education, newborn care assistance, emotional check-ins, and nervous system support. As part of our postpartum offerings, mothers may also receive complimentary relaxation-focused therapies such as back, leg, and foot massage to reduce tension, support healing, and promote restoration after birth. I have had the honor of supporting diverse families, including first-time parents, growing families, single parents, and families from a wide range of cultural backgrounds. My approach is inclusive, trauma-informed, and affirming, always personalized to each family’s values, needs, and birth preferences. Love How You Heal offers complimentary 30-minute consultations, providing space for mothers and families to ask questions, explore their desires, address concerns, and feel fully informed before committing to care. I believe childbirth can be a positive, empowering, and deeply rewarding experience and that it is simply more time spent with your baby before they take their first breath into the world. It is my honor to walk alongside families with care that honors their strength, resilience, and unique journey into parenthood.

There are truly no words big enough to express how grateful I am for Kiara Thomas with APS and Treichae. During one of the most emotional and vulnerable seasons of my life, they became my village when I had no family or friends in town. They didn’t just provide postpartum and overnight newborn care they showed up with genuine love, compassion, and heart. One of the most touching moments was when they surprised me with a baby shower after my daughter was born. Knowing I had no support system nearby, they went out of their way to make me feel celebrated, seen, and cared for. That alone meant more to me than I can ever fully explain. They were truly on call 24/7, always available to answer my questions, calm my worries, and support me as a new mom. When my baby girl struggled to latch the way I had hoped for breastfeeding, Kiara provided reassurance, education, and emotional support without judgment reminding me that I was doing my best and that my baby was loved and thriving. On top of everything else, Kiara was incredibly understanding of my financial situation and worked with me to make care affordable without ever making me feel uncomfortable or ashamed. That level of compassion and flexibility is rare and deeply appreciated. Kiara and Treichae didn’t just care for my baby they cared for me. I will forever be thankful for the role they played in my postpartum journey and would recommend them to any family looking for support that goes far beyond expectations.

I’m Riley, the doula behind Root and Vine. This work is my calling — rooted in a deep respect for the strength and sacrifice of women, the transformation of birth, and the sacredness of new life. I’m a birth and postpartum doula, trained through DONA, and support families across the DFW metroplex with compassion, evidence-based knowledge, calm presence, and a deep trust in the process of labor. I am an English teacher of seven years and my husband and I have one son. My path to birth doula work began with my own birth experience; having a doula during my pregnancy was so helpful to me and made me feel much more knowledgeable and in control of my birth. Unfortunately, the birth of my son did not go as planned for many reasons: my doula could not attend my birth, I preeclampsia complications, and my son was in a breech position. Birth is a transformation, but it can also come with trauma. My experience compelled me to become a doula to hopefully help other women have better birth experiences than I did. I’m also passionate about postpartum care; in the time after giving birth, I felt vulnerable and, although I had endured a major physical and emotional event, I was not often the focus or concern. Even amidst so much joy and love for my son, people quickly begin asking about the baby and forget to ask about the new parent. I want to be the doula that I wish I could have had! The role of postpartum doula is to mother the mother, to educate and encourage new parents, and ensure the new family is thriving together. My love of caregiving and my passion of supporting other mothers is combined in the role of postpartum doula.

When my husband and I first found out we were expecting, I started researching birth like a madwoman - determined to leave no stone unturned! I wanted to be prepared, but most of all, I was afraid. I was terrified of the unknown and all the horror stories I had seen on TV and heard from other women. As I educated myself, I became fascinated with birth and the amazing way God has created women's bodies to bring life into the world. My anxieties were soothed; birth didn’t have to be scary and miserable! It can be purposeful and empowering! I was able to experience doula support firsthand as a first-time mom, and the difference it made to have someone who knows birth and what was normal, to hold my hand and apply counterpressure to my aching back, and to encourage and support my husband as well was huge. Shortly after my first birth experience, I started the processs to become a doula myself. During my certification, I was able to aid in several different labors. It was a blessing to be able to learn with these mamas during such a beautiful and intimate part of their lives. Now, I am blessed to walk with women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum pretty consistently, and I can say that there is absolutely nothing like watching women achieve their birth goals together with their husbands. That moment of disbelief, triumph, and sweet relief when baby is born and they realize it is over and they DID IT! I find myself praising God all the more after each experience!

We took birthing classes with Ashley and just welcomed our baby, and we can honestly say the information she provided was incredibly helpful during labor and delivery. The techniques, explanations, and guidance she shared truly helped us get through the process with more confidence. She was especially great at teaching my husband practical ways to support me and how to advocate for me during labor, which made a huge difference. On top of that, she is very personable, easy to communicate with, and wonderful to work with. We would highly recommend her services to anyone preparing for birth.

My name is Genicia Battle, known in the Ifá community as Ifáfúnké Àṣọre. I am a Full Circle Doula and Birth Companion, trained through the SMC Full Circle Doula Birth Companion Training. A program rooted in the cultural, historical, and spiritual traditions of African American midwifery and birth work. I became a doula because every birthing person deserves to feel seen, supported, and spiritually connected throughout their journey. I know the difference it makes to birth in a space that feels warm, honoring, and sacred. My vision is to offer families not only emotional and spiritual support, but also culturally rooted healing tools that nurture the womb, body, and soul. Birth is not just a moment! It is a portal! My purpose is to ensure that every mother steps through it feeling whole, powerful, and profoundly connected to her divine nature.

I talked to Genicia and explained how I was feeling. The back story is...I had a really bad headache. One of those headaches that affects not just your head but every part of your face and the back of your neck. It would not go away, and it was very painful. Shortly then I remembered that Genicia gave me a tea bag of her Simmer Down nerve tea for days like this. When I had her tea, my headache started to calm down. I was no longer in pain. If you ever experience a headache like this, I suggest getting in a comfy spot and having a cup of her Simmer Down nerve tea and watch how it works.

Hi, I’m Andrea Carter—founder of It Takes a Village, midwife, mother, and passionate birth advocate. Originally from Gary, Indiana, I made Dallas my home in 2015. Though I dreamed of becoming an OB/GYN as a child, it was my own powerful birth experiences that led me to step into the world of natural birth and begin my journey as a doula in 2016. ​Since then, I’ve had the honor of walking alongside over 160 families as a doula and supporting more than 300 families as a student midwife. I am a proud 2023 graduate of Southwest Technical College, and today I serve families as a staff midwife at Swiss Avenue Birth and Wellness Center, in addition to offering homebirth services throughout the DFW metroplex.​ ​ ​​ As a mother of four—each born naturally—I understand the beauty, strength, and vulnerability of birth firsthand. My mission is to educate and support families so they feel confident, heard, and empowered to make the choices that are right for them. I’ve attended a wide range of births, including VBACs, breech births, and twins, and I bring a calm, grounded presence to every birth space. My Philosophy of Birth I believe that birth is a sacred, physiological process—not something to be managed, but to be supported. Every birthing person deserves compassionate, respectful, and individualized care that centers their voice, values, and vision. I trust the innate wisdom of the body and believe that, with the right support and information, families can birth in power and peace—however that looks for them. Whether in a birth center or at home, I honor each family’s unique journey and hold space for their strength to unfold. At It Takes a Village, you’re not just receiving care—you’re gaining a trusted partner who honors your vision for birth and walks beside you every step of the way.
