LGBTQ+ Affirming Doulas in Lexington, KY

Hi! My name is Amy and I'm a Birth and Postpartum Doula in Lexington, KY. My work focuses on 3 pillars of support during the birthing year! Education: knowing your options and planning for your ideal birth experience and the unexpected. A great way to avoid a traumatic birth experience is to be really educated about your options before you go into labor! Advocacy: knowing what you want and making sure that is respected and supported. It's your birth and you're in charge! Recovery: postpartum is a gift to reset your health, but this requires rest, nourishment and establishing new routines with your new baby. I will help you make a plan before baby arrives and implement it after you give birth!

Hello, My name is Merissa Khumalo, and I am an educator and long-term nanny turned Birth and Postpartum Doula! I have a passion for holistic health and have experience with families of many different backgrounds. I feel called to this career and can use my skills to support families from conception to contraction and beyond! I am knowledgeable in herbalism, nutrition, exercise, breastfeeding, essential oils, sleep training, baby-led weaning, cloth diapering, chronic illness support, healthy home practices, and so much more! I will help you sing, shout, and let it all out during birth while acting professionally as your biggest advocate--whether you decide on a home or hospital birth. I will support you with nourishing meals, pelvic floor exercises, and positive affirmations in the postpartum period and even help you get your baby on a schedule that gives you peace of mind as you recover. In my free time, I love playing tabletop games, reading books, crafting, and trying new recipes!

Thank you for your interest in my doula services! A new client consultant is required in order for me to consider taking you as a client. We will discuss the role of a doula and go over the services I offer as a full spectrum doula as well as payment options. ** FOR ALL AND ANY INQUIRIES ABOUT SERVICES PLEASE -TEXT- (502) 579-3365 ** INSERT ~ NAME ~ EDD ~ CITY, STATE
