I’m a certified prenatal, birth, and postpartum doula who loves supporting women and families through one of life's biggest transitions. I start with listening, gentle advocacy, and evidence‑based care, always aiming to create a calm, connected experience. I also enjoy helping families plug into community resources that make the journey feel a little lighter. Outside of birth work, I enjoy movement and mindfulness activities like working out, being in nature, and creative design projects.

I had the pleasure of having Kamya as my doula, and she was amazing. From our first meeting I knew I would be well taken care of. She accommodated her time, she was always available whenever I had questions as well as having helpful material throughout my experience. Kamya has helped me with understanding the stages of labor and what was to be expected. She also gave me tips on how to better communicate with doctors during visits. During labor, I was able to stick with my birth plan with the help of Kamya. I wanted a vaginal birth, and a C section was brought up, due to my dilation not changing. I communicated this with Kamya she came to the hospital right away and with the help of different positions she gave me I was able to successfully give a vaginal birth. As a first time mom, I didn’t know what to expect, and Kamya made my experience one of the best. If you are looking for a doula I would highly recommend Kamya, she was great to me.

The combination of these values led me to launch Lactation Lighthouse.

Christina was amazing! I was feeling so discouraged with my breastfeeding journey after having mastitis a few times and she was able to help me pinpoint what the causes might be. After meeting with her and following her suggestions i have been mastitis free and truly enjoying my breastfeeding journey. Christina is so knowledgeable, personable, and caring. She took her time with me and baby and made sure all my questions/concerns were addressed. I immediately felt comfortable with her and would use her services again! I highly recommend her!!

I have nothing but great things to say about Debra! I was her client during 2024, and had my son in November 2024. I never hired a doula with my oldest so the process was as new to me and I wasn't sure what to expect, but Debra met me where I was at and guided me through the process so it was effortless. She was always available either by text or call and always checked in on me and made sure that I had any information and support I may need! I'm not in contact with my mother so Debra, being and mother and grandmother herself brought the motherly vibes which looking back is something I personally preferred Vs having a doula around my age. She actively listened to my preferences surrounding my birth experience and when the time came she was both respectful and thoughtful of my wishes. She advocated for things I didn't want in the delivery room for me while I was deep in labor. If you want a kind, caring, compassionate, reliable, and loving doula please don't think twice about hiring Debra you will not regret it!

I cannot recommend Michelle highly enough! She was an absolute rock star during the birth of my baby, who arrived 6 weeks early. Through all the uncertainty and stress, Michelle was there every step of the way to keep the calm and peace, offering unwavering support and reassurance. She was a true rock for my family, ensuring I was taken care of and advocating for me throughout the process—especially during the scarier moments when doctors weren’t explaining things clearly. Michelle stepped in to make sure we understood everything. Her compassionate presence made a world of difference. On top of that, she captured beautiful, meaningful pictures when we first brought our baby home from the NICU. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle for anyone looking for a dedicated, kind, and supportive doula.

We hired Chris Scarlett for the birth of our 7th baby. We were returning to the hospital after home births and I wanted to make sure there was someone who could advocate for my desires in a hospital setting. Chris was everything we could hope for and MORE! She is encyclopedic in her knowledge of birth, breastfeeding, hospital policy, and postpartum health (she is also a postpartum doula). I felt so confident asking her to help educate me on any topic. She came fully prepared to show me all the options available for a wide variety of birth plans. I felt totally free to develop my own birth plan and that she would advocate for my desires. She helped me as my due date approached know what kind of exercises and movements could help get my baby in position and provide relief from undesirable pregnancy symptoms. She helped keep me calm and focused on my desires for this birth when I went 9 days overdue! When I was in active labor, she came to my home and helped me get dressed, pack the car, time contractions etc. Once in the hospital, I was already in transition and almost non-verbal. Chris knew exactly what to do (parking, check-in, making the attending aware of my birth plan, preparing the birth room, preparing the hospital's stool, ball, CUB, bathtub). She is an incredibly clear communicator - firm, but respectful to hospital staff. She was with me and my husband in every contraction, letting him know how he could help me. She suggested position changes, made sure I had adequate hydration and nutrients. Once the baby was delivered, she helped protect my “Golden Hour” based on my desires, helped establish breastfeeding, get clean and changed, and stayed until we were settled in the recovery room. We both recommend her 100%!!!  

— Teresa G., review of Christine Scarlett August 2026

We had such a wonderful experience working with Christine, and I truly don’t think we would have accomplished the birth we wanted without her!From the beginning, I knew I wanted a natural birth, but I was very nervous that I wouldn’t be able to do it. Her experience, especially having had several VBACs herself, was so encouraging and helped me feel confident that my body was capable. She prepared us so well with classes, workbooks, and resources, which made me feel much less anxious going into labor.One of the things I appreciated most was how knowledgeable she was about pregnancy and birth while always allowing us to make our own decisions. She would share the facts and sometimes her opinion, but never in a biased or pushy way. She respected our values and made me feel empowered and confident in our choices. Having a Christian doula was also very important to us, and it meant so much to have someone whose values aligned with ours.My labor ended up being 31 hours, and she was incredibly calm, level-headed, and reassuring throughout. Around 25 hours in, I was questioning everything and asked if I should go to the hospital for an epidural. She gently reminded me of my goals, reassured me that I was safe, and encouraged me to keep going. She helped us feel confident that everything was normal and healthy, allowing us to stay home until we were ready. We arrived at the hospital fully dilated and ready to push!She was also an amazing support for my husband. When he needed to eat or use the bathroom, she stepped in without hesitation and supported me through contractions. Even postpartum, she continued checking in and genuinely cared about how I was doing. Breastfeeding unfortunately did not go well for me, but she continued reaching out and asking how she could help. She is calm, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and compassionate. We are so grateful we chose her and would recommend her!

— Sarah P., review of Christine Scarlett August 2026

Rochelle took excellent care of me. Prenatal and postpartum depression settled in and Rochelle was able to provide me resource and encouraging words. During labor she did not allow those doctors to play with me or my baby. My family appreciated her more than she knows.
