Hello and welcome! I’m Sasha Sumling, a licensed massage therapist of 14 years, certified birth and postpartum doula, infant massage instructor, and Evidence Based Birth® Instructor. I’m deeply passionate about supporting mothers through every stage of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum with a hands-on, heart-centered approach. My journey as a massage therapist began with the belief that touch is powerful and deeply healing. It was a natural step for me to become a doula, where I could bring that same healing presence into the birthing space—offering not only physical relief but emotional and spiritual support when it matters most. I bring to every birth: • Therapeutic, intuitive touch • A calm and reassuring voice • A warm, relatable presence • A sense of humor that puts you at ease • And a deep commitment to advocacy and education My mission is to be a steady and empowering presence for women—especially those navigating high-risk pregnancies, stress, anxiety, or difficult life circumstances. I believe in creating sacred, safe spaces where mothers feel seen, supported, and confident as they bring life into the world. As your doula, I’ll walk alongside you, offering evidence-based information, compassionate care, and unwavering support before, during, and after birth. If you’re seeking a grounded, loving, and experienced doula who blends skill with soul—I’d be honored to support you. Let’s connect and talk more about your birth wishes. I’d love to walk this journey with you.

I am a birth and postpartum doula, NICU mom, and a military wife, whose passion for this work was shaped by my own early motherhood experience. I had my first baby halfway across the country during COVID, farm from family and community. That season taught me how powerful it is to feel truly supported, and it became the foundation for the way I show up for other families. I have had the honor of supporting friends and families through both home births and hospital births, and I love walking alongside parents through the many different paths birth birth can take, with a professional foundation in Kinesiology, I understand deeply how the body functions in pregnancy and birth, and how movement and positioning support physiological labor and how to help reduce strain and injury during this transformative process. I blend evidence based education with holistic, intuitive care to offer support that is both grounded and nurturing. At the heart of my work is a simple intention. I show up for mothers the way I would want someone to show up for my daughter one day. With warmth, compassion, and a steady presence, my hope is that every family I support feels seen, held, and never alone as they step into parenthood.

Highly recommend hiring Courtney as your doula. Our doula we initially hired had an emergency so we ended up having Courtney as our backup doula and she did not disappoint! We were a little nervous having a backup doula and somebody we’ve never met but Courtney was so personable, very easy going and very much was prepared for our birth plan and things we discussed with our doula prior to going into labor. Courtney was very encouraging, supportive and really helped my husband and I during such an intense and vulnerable experience. Thank you Courtney for what you do! It’s very clear that she loves what she does and it translates into working with her clients.

HE ID BEYOND AMAZING!! Even the hospital Staff were surprised by his knowledge and said they wish more duals were like him! I love how we met once a month to talk about how I was doing and even visited me at home after I gave birth. When he says he is in it for the long haul he means it! I was induced on the 18th and did not have my son till the 20th he stayed with me the whole time!

Having Zaira as my doula was amazing. She came to my home when I was having prodromal labor and helped me do exercises that got me into actual labor that same night. She stayed by my side the whole time at the birthing center and looked out for my husband like I requested when she saw he was in shock after our baby was born. When I felt like I couldn't do it anymore she reassured me that we where almost at the finish line and talked me through to the end.

Recent review

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Lavi. I reached out to her because my wife was very overwhelmed and I was about to return back to work. She came in our household and really helped my wife find peace. She helped our baby fall asleep on a schedule (which she is still on), she always made sure my wife had something to eat, every time I came home from work my wife was very relaxed and I learned a lot about how I can help. I think she made a huge difference in our lives and I’m very glad that she was able to support us.

Kameryn was everything my husband and I we looking for as first time parents. Do not hesitate to work with her! She gave us great exercises, and techniques to help our birth be seamless as possible.

A wife, mother of two, and proud Houstonian. Giving birth to my first child was a transformative experience. I quickly realized how much I didn't know about breastfeeding and the numerous options available to me during birth. This lack of knowledge was overwhelming, and I couldn't help but think about other first-time moms who might be feeling the same way. That moment sparked a deep desire within me to do more— to guide and support other women as they transition into motherhood. Driven by this passion, I became a life coach for mothers, helping them navigate the beautiful yet challenging transition into motherhood. But as my passion for maternal support grew, I felt motivated to do even more. After much reflection, I decided to pursue a career as a doula.

Brianna helped me with light chores around the house and emotional support as I navigated the complexities of having a baby in the NICU. She is very knowledgeable, compassionate, and willing to work with you to make the most of your time working together. Brianna is also an excellent Yoga instructor and kindly showed me some stretches I could do safely even after having a complicated postpartum recovery.

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do. Her light coming in helped me TRULY calm down and start enjoying my pregnancy experience. I truly recommend any and everyone to definitely have Ms. Foster for their doula.

Highly Recommend Thalia – An Amazing Birth Doula! I had the absolute privilege of having Thalia as my birth doula, and I cannot recommend her enough! Despite being based in Houston, TX, she traveled all the way to Los Angeles to support me during my birth, and her presence made all the difference. From our very first consultation, I knew I was in good hands. Thalia was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive to my needs, both emotionally and physically. She took the time to understand my birth preferences and offered valuable support and guidance every step of the way. On the big day, she was a calm and reassuring presence, providing me with comfort, strength, and encouragement. Her support allowed me to have a positive and empowered birth experience. I truly believe that having Thalia by my side helped me achieve the birth I had hoped for. If you're looking for a professional, caring, and dedicated doula who goes above and beyond, look no further. I am forever grateful for her support and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive birth doula. Thank you again, Thalia! You made a huge impact on my birth experience, and I’ll always be thankful for you!
