Howdy! I’m Carlie, an avid reader, lover of the outdoors, Aggie, and a momma of 1 sweet little boy. I fell in love with the birthing community and experience as soon as I found out I was pregnant with my son. I had a wonderful support system of my own throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum, and have a passion for helping other mommas have the same privilege. Through evidence based expertise, I can help you advocate for the birth story you desire as a critical member of your birth team. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet little one someday along your beautiful journey to motherhood🤍

Hello and thanks for stopping and showing interest in my company! My name is Jaelyn Cooper and I’m a certified birth doula and certified child birth educator with SirenSong Doula Services. I hail from Spring, Tx and service most of Harris and surrounding counties, with my main focus being on low income, military, teen and lgbtqia+ parents. When I’m not doing birth work, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family and friends, and Amazon shopping. I do hope that you will reach out for a free consultation so we can decide if we’re a good match for each other. Have a mer-mazing day!

Jaelyn is an angel straight from heaven. I live across the country from my family, and she showed up as my best friend and my family during my delivery and postpartum. She was a tremendous advocate for me during my birth. I was committed to having a natural birth at a birth center, but after 18 hours of labor we had to take it to the hospital because of unavoidable complications. She did absolutely everything to protect and support me at the hospital, while I was pretty much delirious and struggling to make decisions, she was bold and brave standing up from my rights and needs the whole time. For example, the doctors wanted me to go straight to Pitocin to strengthen my ability to push, but Jaelyn knew I wanted to avoid medical interventions, so like a genius she instructed the doctors to give me a breast pump instead because pumping can have the same strengthening effect in an all-natural way. I didn’t even know that, but she did. All through the day and night at the birth center she kept me fed and hydrated, tirelessly held the detachable shower head for me for literally 3 hours straight as I was attempting a water birth, and gave me massages and helped me through all kinds of creative birthing positions. During my extremely challenging birth experience, feeling her hand holding mine was the most comforting and reassuring thing. Her energy was calm always. And then, low and behold postpartum at the hospital, she was my first visitor bringing me a gift bag full of beautiful high quality baby items, a huge bouquet of flowers, and a deluxe fruit tray which I devoured. She’s one of those friends who knows what you need without you having to say anything. She was born to be a doula, and she even remembered my dog’s name and asked about her which cheered me up so much! Plus, with my pregnancy Medicaid all of her services were free! She has a great sense of humor and made me laugh so hard during her hospital visits that they could definitely hear us in the next room! Anyway, God bless you Jaelyn and thank you for treating me with such kindness, love, and respect. And any of you looking for the best doula ever who will seriously have your back, Jaelyn is your girl.

TuWana was amazing! She took the time to listen and understand my needs and wants. She informed me of all my options and coached me through my entire birth and was a great support system during my postpartum period. Working with TuWana with felt more like family than business.

I am a mom of 3, and I had very different journeys with each. I know firsthand that no pregnancies, labors, births or postpartum recoveries are the same, and therefore should be treated with respect and understanding for the individual. As your doula, I will hold space for you to fully understand all information being given to you, ask your questions, make your own well-informed decisions, and be confident in your choices.

Krista is like an angel! As soon as I interviewed her she made me feel so comfortable, and I knew she was to Doula for me throughout my pregnancy. She would check in to see if I had any questions, and to check how I was physically and emotionally. If I did have questions, she was always so great at getting back to me quickly. She also came to a prenatal appointment with me to meet my Midwife, which I thought was really cool. I had contractions for days before actual labor, and she was ready to help as soon as I needed her. I labored at home with her by my side and she was such a comfort. She also helped my husband feel reassured, which helped him feel confident in helping me himself. She also encapsulated my placenta for me. I didn’t know whata doula was with my first pregnancy three years before, and having her made all the difference in labor. I wish everyone could use her as their Doula. The fact that she’s a mom herself who has used many of the techniques she help me use to stay calm, breathe through the pain, and be confident about birth was so comforting. She cares so much about the mom she’s trying to help and you can feel the love she has for her role as a Doula. I would choose her again and again.
