Misty Gurr Birth Doula in Durham, NC
About Misty
Hello! My name is Misty, and I am a certified birth doula and childbirth educator serving families in Durham, North Carolina and the surrounding areas. I believe birth is a natural, powerful experience that unfolds best when you feel safe, heard, and unconditionally supported. Drawing from nearly two decades as a kindergarten teacher and my own journey raising two daughters, I bring a deeply rooted patience, steady guidance, and intuitive communication to every birth space. Years in the classroom taught me to stay grounded during big emotional shifts, translate complex information clearly, and meet each person exactly where they are—skills that allow me to show up as your calm, consistent advocate who protects your birth preferences and nurtures your confidence from labor through postpartum.

What to expect
I provide comprehensive, personalized support designed to inform, comfort, and empower growing families through pregnancy, labor, and early postpartum.

As a certified childbirth educator, I lead evidence-based classes that demystify the labor process, equip partners with practical support tools, and build genuine confidence for delivery day.
