With more than five years of hands-on experience in labor and delivery support, I am passionate about empowering families during one of the most transformative moments of their lives. Through personalized care, open communication, and emotional support, I have helped countless families navigate their birthing experiences with confidence and peace of mind. I believe my background and unwavering dedication would make me a strong asset to your family. As a Full Spectrum Doula, I have cultivated a well-rounded skill set that includes prenatal education, labor support, and postpartum care. I am skilled in providing physical and emotional support through various birthing options, from natural to medicated and water births, always ensuring that the family’s preferences and values are honored. My expertise in comfort techniques like breathing exercises, massage, and aromatherapy has allowed me to create a calming, nurturing environment for families during labor. I take great pride in helping my clients feel heard, empowered, and fully informed in every step of their journey. I am deeply committed to providing culturally sensitive care that respects each family’s unique needs and backgrounds. I approach every birth with the understanding that no two families are the same, and I tailor my support accordingly. In addition to my professional expertise, I also bring compassionate listening, calm presence under pressure, and an unshakable belief in the strength of the birthing individual.

Peace! Birth, magnanimous as it is, is one moment that comes after months of mental and spiritual preparation. It is the intention, the mission, if you will, of Soulcology of Birth to provide more than childbirth education. I will journey alongside these burgeoning Mamas as a sister (and as I grow, auntie, Mama, GrandMother). I will help them unpack their family history, to heal, to break generational cycles of dysfunction. Soulcology of Birth is centered on the sanctity of created Life with a focus on growing Love.

I am a mother and a grandmother. I spent many years working with children as an educator but since 2011 have been a psychotherapist dealing with women's issues. Since 2009, I have worked with women with high risk pregnancies, pregnancy and postpartum depression and anxiety and prenatal loss both in a hospital setting and more recently in private practice. What a huge transition it is to have a baby. I enjoy working with new moms to validate, normalize and support the many changes that are involved.

Wendy is truly gifted with empathy, compassion, and guidance. When you talk with her, you immediately feel that you are in a safe place. You will feel inspired after each visit, as she reminds you to be kind and gentle with yourself. During the last decade, she has taken excellent care of the many patients I referred to her while I was in practice in the field of Ob/Gyn. She is fully equipped to deal with the range of women's issues, and she is well-trained in various modalities to address trauma, grief, anxiety, self-doubt. She was invaluable to me personally when I was struggling with family issues relating to grief and loss. I would consider her a uniquely gifted angel!

La historia de mi emprendimiento comenzó con mi propia maternidad. A mis veintitantos tuve a mis hijas, y la gran diferencia fue el respaldo de mi familia: Mujeres que me sostuvieron y Hombres que me protegieron. Ese acompañamiento transformó mi experiencia y me enseñó que maternar no debería vivirse nunca en aislamiento. Años después, emigré. Como migrante, descubrí lo opuesto: la soledad de las familias hispanas que gestan y crían lejos de casa. Sin tribu, sin idioma común, en un sistema de salud eficiente pero impersonal. Esa realidad me llevó a un 'ajá' interior: Mi vocación era crear para otras lo que yo había recibido: Un NIDO de confianza, cuidado y resiliencia. Ofrezco programas que integran mi formación como doula, educadora perinatal y especialista en procesos de indagación personal. Lo que hace única esta propuesta es la capacidad de tender puentes: entre lo médico y lo humano, entre la cultura de origen y la de acogida, entre la soledad y la comunidad. Acompaño a las familias para que vivan la maternidad con confianza y resiliencia, y en ese proceso contribuyo a sembrar generaciones más empáticas y comunidades más cohesionadas.

Hi! I'm Tamiko. I'm the Advanced Newborn Care Specialist, Certified Postpartum Doula, and Sleep Expert for exhausted parents who want their babies to sleep all night so they can feel like themselves again. I help moms enjoy motherhood and have time for themselves once the baby is down for the night. Dads have reported waking energized with a new pep in their step after implementing my strategies. Since 2008, I've worked 24/7, rotational shifts for families who value privacy and discretion. I understand the unique needs of these families and the great finesse required to succeed in these positions. I enjoy working with families from all backgrounds and providing them with both daytime and overnight support as they transition into parenthood. I've helped over 1000 families (both online and in-person) gently teach their little ones to sleep. I also have lots of experience working with medically fragile babies (i.e. N/GJ/J tubes, sleep apnea, GERD, SGA, cardiac issues, etc.). In my free time, I enjoy baking delicious gluten-free desserts and hanging out with my sweet nephews. If you're looking for an experienced Doula or Newborn Care Specialist who's calm, a joy to be around, and goes with the flow, let's connect. I'm so excited to meet you and learn more about your family.

We hired Tamiko so she could support us right when we got home. It was really in the beginning more about me getting sleep because I was recovering from a C-section and just really needed to rest and recover. And it was really, really crucial having Tamiko there in those early days right after we got back from the hospital to get the most sleep. With Tamiko's help, our daughter started at about six weeks just skipping, her two 3:00 AM feeding and she sleeps between 10 and 12 hours in a stretch every night now, so at two months. She helped create a plan so I can breastfeed and still get rest at night. Tamiko is easygoing and easy to get along with and it's nice having her around.

Hi my name is Annelise. I'm a new BEST certified childbirth doula in Houston. I became a doula because I believe that every single birthing person deserves to be heard, supported, and surrounded by love. My passion is offering empathy, advocacy, and unwavering care during pregnancy, birth, and beyond. My approach is rooted in spiritual practices, meditation, and holistic support. I prefer home births and birthing center births, working with you, a partner, and your midwife to create a calm and empowered birthing environment that honors your body’s wisdom. Beyond birth support, I also provide nourishing postpartum meal prep, crafting meals tailored to dietary restrictions and designed to promote healing and increase milk production. I aim to care for both body and spirit, ensuring you feel supported in every way during this sacred transition. I enjoy spirituality, meditation, music, field hockey, and cooking. Let’s create a birth and postpartum experience filled with love. I’d love to see if I'd be a good fit for your journey.

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do. Her light coming in helped me TRULY calm down and start enjoying my pregnancy experience. I truly recommend any and everyone to definitely have Ms. Foster for their doula.

Chelsea is an amazing and needed doula! Her soothing vibe and willingness to help on the spot are two of the many great qualities she possesses that made me cherish her help during my pregnancy through postpartum. Each session I walked away feeling more confident about my labor and ended up giving birth naturally using many techniques she taught us. Thank you Chelsea, I love you girl!
