Hey there, my name is Hannah Servis. I am a certified birth & postpartum doula/childbirth & lactation educator in the Jackson, Mississippi area. I officially got certified as a doula in 2026, but my birth journey truly began in 2016 when I had my first baby. I later began supporting families and friends in 2023 through childbirth education, understanding birth rights/informed consent, and emotional support. My passion is helping women feel calm, informed, and fully supported throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I truly desire for women to see birth as a beautiful experience rather than something to be afraid of. As a mother of five with a wide range of birth experiences from hospital to homebirth, I understand how personal this journey is. My role is to provide steady, grounded support while helping you prepare mentally, emotionally, and physically for the kind of birth experience you desire. My approach is evidence-based and Christ-centered, creating a peaceful and supportive space for you to feel safe, heard, and empowered in your decisions.To find out more about these services visit my website!

"I cannot recommend Brandi highly enough. As a Christian Doula, she brought a sense of peace and spiritual grounding to my birth space that I didn't even know I needed. What truly sets Brandi apart is her heart for advocacy. My birth ended up being the complete opposite of my original plan in every way possible, but Brandi didn't blink. She pivoted instantly, ensuring I felt heard, supported, and empowered even as the circumstances changed. She wasn't just there for the 'perfect' birth; she was there for my birth. To top it off, her postpartum services are incredible. The placenta encapsulation has been a huge help in my recovery, and the placenta prints and cord preservation are such beautiful, sacred keepsakes that I will treasure forever. If you want a doula who is professional, deeply faithful, and a fierce advocate for your well-being, Brandi is the one."

My experience with Herlistic Living was truly professional, meaningful, and beyond my expectations. From the very beginning, Mrs. Adriana Hawkins-Smith was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. She took the time to answer every question I had thoroughly and clearly, whether it was by phone, text message, or during our in-person conversations. Her communication was consistent, reassuring, and made me feel completely confident throughout the entire process. The transfer of my placenta from the hospital to her care was smooth and stress-free, with no issues at all. Mrs. Hawkins-Smith handled everything with the utmost professionalism and respect. She did an amazing job preparing my placenta fertilizer, and the umbilical cord gift was beautifully done and very meaningful to me. I am truly grateful for her care, attention to detail, and dedication to her work. I sincerely thank her for everything she has done for me and would highly recommend Herlistic Living to anyone looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and trustworthy services.

From such a young age, we are taught to fear birth. We are told that birth is a something that we have to get through in order to have a baby. Birth is demonized and seen as dangerous and something that must be managed. But the more and more that I do this work, the more and more that I just cannot believe this is true. Yes, birth is intense, and birth is hard. But birth is not bad, it is not something that we need to avoid or get through. When given the space and care, birth transforms us. It can show you your strength, it can empower you, it can call you to lean on the love and support of the ones around you. Birth asks you to make space for the parts of yourself that we so often try to hide. It asks you to draw inward and trust your intuition and be loud and take up space.  My job as a doula is not to be your voice or to make your birth happen any specific way, but it is to make space for your voice to be heard and make space for you to have autonomy over your body and decisions. It is to join you in holding the physical intensity of birth. Nothing that I do can take that away, but my goal is to help you know that you are never alone in walking through it, and hopefully give you tools and options to support your body. Your birth is your birth, not mine, not your sisters, not your parents.  I am a body positive, lgbtq+ affirming doula. I have a special interest in supporting clients in low-intervention, physiological births, with an emphasis on following your intuition and values. I understand that the world does not treat us all equally; my mission is to ensure that all people are able to have access to affirming, compassionate, and empowering care.
