Hello! I'm Melinda, wife to Seth, and mother to Abigail, Luke, Keturah, Naomi, Isaac, Elijah, and Mattias. While my family lived in South Africa(2018-2019), I was blessed to become a certified doula through their WOMBS (women offering mothers birth support) program. Along with in-person classes, I experienced hands-on doula opportunities with laboring women in 2 different hospital locations in Johannesburg. I believe this experience opened my heart to truly seeing the importance of having a strong support system during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum. Children are a blessing from the Lord and every mother deserves the best through her pregnancy/delivery. I personally have experienced 3 hospital births, 2 birth center deliveries, and 2 home births. I am here to support you and help you make the most memorable and peaceful birth possible. If you are pregnant and would like the support of a doula, please reach out to me. I would love to meet you and see if I am the right doula for you.

We are so incredibly grateful that we hired Melinda as our doula. From the very beginning, she was always available to answer our questions and provide reassurance, and she brought such a calm and comforting presence to our birth experience. Our little one decided to arrive early, and Melinda was incredibly flexible and showed up when we needed her. Throughout labor, she offered so many helpful recommendations for position changes, pain management techniques, and ways to work through each stage. She also helped my husband feel much more confident in how to support me through some of the most difficult parts of labor, which meant so much to both of us. Our birth experience ended up being drastically different from what we had planned, but Melinda was wonderful at helping us pivot, supporting us through the unexpected, and encouraging us as we made decisions along the way. I especially appreciated that she prayed over us right before delivery. It was such a meaningful and comforting moment that I will always remember. I would absolutely recommend Melinda to any expecting family—and I already have! She was an incredible source of support, encouragement, and calm during one of the most important and challenging experiences of our lives. We are so thankful she was there to help us welcome our little one into the world.

VANESSA CORY, CD(DONA), (CD)SBD About Vanessa: I am a certified birth doula under DONA and a certified birth and bereavement doula under Stillbirthday Academy®. I’m married to my husband Quinn, and we have four children, Liam, Ainsley, Owen and Harlow. I have served and supported families in the DFW metroplex for 10 years and each birth has made me fall more in love with what I do. I began attending births in July 2012, and have loved every family and every birth I’ve had the privilege of supporting. Each birth is unique and amazing and my hope is that I can help your family feel prepared, informed and supported as you go through the process of bringing a new life into the world. I’ve attended unmedicated, medicated, waterbirths, high risk, induced, cesareans, VBAC, VBAC after multiple cesareans, premature, stillbirth, loss procedures, miscarriage, post loss, sexual abuse survivors, teens, out of state clients, surrogates, same sex couples, in hospital and out of hospital births. I would love to support you in your dream birth, whatever that looks like for you!

Vanessa was our doula for all 5 of our children. My husband wasn’t convinced we needed a doula, but after our first was born, he said, “We could not have done that without her!” So she was considered a necessity for the subsequent births. Before birth day, she met with us to discuss our birth plan and goals and how she could help us with that. She taught us what to do for pain management. She involved my husband as much as he wanted/could handle, but she did a significant amount of the pain relief techniques for me. She made sure I was drinking water and always had my cup filled up. She fed me. She reminded me to breathe correctly. She reminded me to “push from your bottom”. She held my hand. She put a cold cloth on my forehead. She knew what I needed when I didn’t. Her presence is calm and kind. For my last birth, my only home birth, she asked in our initial meeting if I had considered catching the baby myself. I told her no, but we decided to discuss what that would look like anyway. The midwife missed that birth. Vanessa made it just in time. I didn’t even know I was pushing, but she knew! She said to my husband,“She’s pushing - we need to get her undressed and in the tub.” She helped me undress and get in the birthing tub and - who knew - I caught my own baby and she was right there with me guiding the process by telling me exactly what to do like we had practiced weeks before. She helped to handle discussing the birth and updates to my midwife on the phone, communicating to us what the midwife needed us to know. She was definitely a source of comfort for all my births, but especially that one! She also does a postpartum visit to check on us and comes full of ideas, contacts, and resources for any postpartum help we need. I cannot recommend her enough. She is such a blessing to our family.

We believe that birth is YOUR story and should be done your way. We try our best to support our clients wishes during births and follow directions for post Partum care as well. We think it’s important not to push clients to do things but allow them to choose their own paths. We love what we do and love educating our clients so that they’re able to make the best decisions for themselves and feel well informed when doing so… We are a team/partnership of two doulas and a registered nurse to cover all things birth, postpartum and beyond!

As a first-time mom, Kourtney was an incredible doula throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum journey. Her support, knowledge, encouragement, and calming presence made a tremendous difference during one of the most important seasons of my life. She helped me feel informed, confident, and empowered every step of the way. Whenever I had questions or concerns, Kourtney was always available with guidance, reassurance, and genuine care. Her dedication to both me and my family went far beyond my expectations. Because of her support, I felt prepared for birth and well-supported as I transitioned into motherhood. Kourtney brought compassion, professionalism, and a genuine passion for serving families to every interaction. I highly recommend Kourtney’s doula services to any expecting family. She is knowledgeable, caring, dependable, and truly committed to helping mothers have a positive and empowering birth experience. Working with her was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy, and I am deeply grateful for everything she did for my family.
