Hey everyone, my name is Liyah Brown I am a certified Birth Doula, Postpartum Doula, and Lactation consultant located in Saginaw, Michigan. I am a first time mom so I am learning little by little as well with my potential clients. From the moment you find out you're pregnant to the moment you deliver are very vulnerable times and every woman deserves a beautiful birth to remember. As a doula all I want is to be there for you and treat you with the care you deserve. I became a doula because every woman deserves to be heard and treated with the upmost respect during laboring. Every mother should have a calm and peaceful experience.

I am a mother of 2 beautiful children. My daughter was born in the Fall of 2020, and I felt like life had failed to prepare me for all things birth related. I knew nothing about pregnancy, birth, or postpartum. I had dreamt for years about getting pregnant, and I wanted nothing more than to be a mom. When it finally happened, I felt so unprepared. I was confused why my friends on social media looked like they had it all together. How did they look so well rested after having baby? How did they not have any problems with labor? How did they look so happy pregnant? How come their baby is latching and mine isn’t? It took me months, a supportive partner, and an amazing counselor to realize that I was normal. These are things that a lot of parents deal with, and I am here to tell you, that is okay! My mission is to support you through this beautiful journey by offering non-judgmental, non-prescriptive compassionate support for all birth choices and all birthing people. My goal is to help you have a positive birth experience, advocate for you and your preferences, and help you navigate all of your choices during pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, lactation and parenting your baby.
