At 4 Stage Maternity Care, I believe that pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are not just medical events—they are sacred journeys. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that every family deserves compassionate, holistic support that honors the physical, emotional, and spiritual transformation of welcoming new life. I approach each stage with gentleness, respect, and evidence-based care, while also embracing natural remedies and time-honored traditions that promote healing and balance. As a certified doula, lactation consultant, and licensed phlebotomist, I bring both clinical expertise and nurturing guidance to the families I serve. Whether I’m helping you prepare for labor, offering early gender testing, or supporting your recovery in the postpartum months, my goal is to walk beside you with encouragement and empowerment. Here, you are never just a patient—you are a parent stepping into one of life’s most beautiful callings, and I am honored to be part of your story.

I’ve worked with families from all backgrounds, providing overnight care, emotional support, and hands-on assistance with newborn routines, feeding, and sleep. My approach is nurturing, nonjudgmental, and rooted in evidence-based care. I have a strong foundation in childcare and birthwork, including supporting low-income communities and continuing my education in maternal and infant health.

When it comes to the birth space, my goal is to support you in any of your choices, even if they change. I focus on inclusivity (I work towards anti-racism, anti-transphobia, anti-fatphobia, and disability visibility). I am an advocate and guardian in the birth space. I have a lot of passions and interests and have books on everything from rain, moss, clouds, pregnancy, birth, parenting, and death. when I am your Doula, I’m your friend. Not only do I provide comfort and knowledge, but I’m also here for you to confide in, talk things through, and laugh with! Sometimes I’m witchy, sometimes I’m crunchy, sometimes I’m basic, sometimes I’m punky. That’s me!

Hi I am Maria, and I came to doula work after working in childcare for 8 years. After spending time with parents who had relatively no postpartum care or support, I soon started my training to bridge that gap. I believe that the postpartum period is one of the most crucial stages of pregnancy. Many parents experience feelings of loneliness, confusion, and exhaustion and it is Maria’s top priority to help parents feel their best during your fourth trimester. Maria believes that every family who wants a doula should have one. Promoting a judgement free zone, she happily works with families and individuals of any age, race, & gender. Instilling confidence and nurturing a new family is what makes Maria excited to go to work every day. Maria has been trained as an EMT, birth and postpartum doula, IBCLC.

I have worked with Maria for almost a year now and it has been the best decision for my family. I am a first time mom and only got 6 weeks of maternity leave before going back to work full time. Maria provided overnight support and it helped tremendously. She took over care for my son so that I could get a full nights sleep. I woke up to a happy baby, clean house, and was able to start the day off right. I absolutely recommend Maria to everyone!

I am a birth and postpartum doula who loves working with new families as they grow and develop! When it comes to birth, I believe each person labors and births in their own unique way, and I want to discover what the birth process looks like for you. I believe the postpartum period is a time of rest, healing, and bonding for new parents, and I lovingly support that process in your home. When I'm not doula-ing, I enjoy reading, yoga, and spending time outside.

I am a passionate birth doula who is dedicated to helping mothers feel heard and in control of their pregnancy and birth by finding trust, strength, and empowerment through listening to the intuition we all have as mothers. My personal experiences of having a C-section, a miscarriage, and a VBAC have all encouraged me to help educate and support other women throughout their own journeys. My goal is for mother and partner to feel supported through prenatal education and confident in trusting their combined intuition to make the best decisions for their family in this life changing moment.

Hello! I'm Sydney Hough Solomon of Water Lily Sleep Consulting and I'm a certified child sleep consultant. I believe parents can have it all; a warm and nurturing relationship with their child and a full night's sleep. At Water Lily Sleep Consulting we follow a child's natural bodily rhythms, create strong routines, and work at your pace. Quality rest plays a major role in a child's mood, health, and development. I think it's important to remember that parents are human, and in order to be present and engaged with their children they need sleep too!

I am a DONA-certified birth doula practicing in the Ann Arbor, MI area. I believe that doula support is a right, not a privilege, so my fees are nominal and my services are above and beyond. In addition to the usual DONA certification training, I am also trained through Survivor Moms and I also volunteer with the Michigan Prison Doula Initiative, in addition to my private practice. I have no time cut-off, so if your labor is moving slowly, I will stay with you all the way. I have been told that my kindness, compassion and ability to listen and advocate has been a godsend to many of my clients.

Hi, I’m Lexi! A devoted doula, nursing and psychology student, and a passionate follower of Christ. I'm also a proud dog mom to a sweet fur baby named Bill. My journey into healthcare began when I cared for my grandmother after she was diagnosed with multiple stage 4 cancers. That sacred experience ignited a deep desire in me to support others through life’s most vulnerable and meaningful transitions. I'm especially fascinated by women’s health and drawn to holistic approaches to healing and wellness. I believe in nurturing the whole person body, mind, and spirit. I’m always eager to grow in my knowledge of holistic medicine and compassionate care. Currently, I work with postpartum mothers and pediatric patients in a hospital setting, offering support, comfort, and presence during times of healing and new beginnings. My heart is to walk alongside new and experienced families alike, honoring the divine beauty of birth and the incredible journey of parenthood. It’s my joy to serve God’s little blessings and their families with empathy, encouragement, and evidence-based care.

I can’t recommend Jill and Happy Kiddos OT enough! I attended one of her baby play classes and was blown away... She created such a fun, engaging environment that made me feel confident as a parent while supporting my baby’s development. Jill also went above and beyond to help me with baby-led weaning, offering practical tips and personalized advice that took all the guesswork out of the process. Her passion for empowering parents and nurturing kids shines through everything she does. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate resource for your baby’s milestones, Jill is your go-to!

We are all about well fed babies, well adjusted moms, and well supported families. Our top priority is equipping pregnant mamas (and their families) with the knowledge and resources needed to successfully breastfeed BEFORE baby arrives! The cornerstone of this company is identifying and treating the root cause of any breastfeeding issues (and therefore eliminating future health concerns) using gentle chiropractic care. ​Well adjusted babes, moms, and families is my mission. Gentle, trauma-informed, IBCLC-trained, chiropractic care from a fellow mom is how I do it. ​This is the end of “I wish I would have known” and the start of every family beginning well.
