Hi, I’ve been an overnight postpartum doula for 4 years and a birth doula for one year. I’m a mother of two and a grandmother to two grandson. I believe parents need support within the first few weeks after coming home with the new addition. Sleep deprivation is real and there might be older siblings that need you, so getting the proper attention of sleep is important . I am there to help you with whatever you need to make your life and your family’s life manageable. I will care for your baby overnight ( feeding, changing, burping, rocking etc)while you get the sleep you deserve. I’ll tidy up your kitchen and wash, dry and fold a load(s)of baby laundry that you might have. If your family has laundry I will be more than willing to wash their laundry as well. If you are breast feeding or bottle feeding I am here to help and support you in any way I can.

I took on the role of nurturer fairly early in life. As the oldest of 8 I lovingly stepped into the big sister role to help guide my siblings by displaying great leadership. In 2014 I became a mother and it was during this experience that I discovered my calling for birth work. Since, for the last 11 years, I have devoted time to being a student in midwifery, becoming trauma informed, and expanding my inclusive services, to widen my scope of support and care. " I will continue to help recreate the way we interact and think about birth, more importantly, physiological birth, as it pertains to people that look like me. We deserve to experience birth void of trauma." - Yeyo

Hello my name is Arlena Spruill also know as the Sapphire Doula. I am a DONA International Birth Doula. I believe that providing doula services to expecting families is not a want but a necessity. I have been a doula for a year and a half and have serviced 15 families. I hope to service many more and hope to grow awareness and acceptance of doulas in all birth spaces. I am mother of 2 beautiful children both were vaginal births. One was an encaul birth that my husband had the honor of catching her with the midwife's assistance which was so beautiful. Because of my two births and having my late mother present at all of them providing what I didn't know at the time was Doula support. I decided that I needed to do the same for other mothers and that began my journey to becoming a doula.
