Hi there! I’m Kayla Morrison, and my work as a birth doula is driven by a deep mission to provide the advocacy and protection that every family deserves. I was inspired to enter this field after witnessing the neglect my own family members faced within the healthcare system. These personal experiences, combined with the critical need to address the Black maternal mortality rate, fuel my passion for being a shield for my clients—ensuring you are heard, respected, and safely cared for throughout your journey. My philosophy centers on holistic emotional and physical support. As a certified herbalist, I don't just focus on the birth itself; I use my knowledge of plants to support your emotional well-being and hormonal balance during the intense postpartum transition. Whether it's through calming nervines to ease anxiety or nutritive herbs to replenish your energy, I aim to nurture your spirit as much as your body. My background in breastfeeding and child education further ensures you have a confident, evidence-based foundation for early parenthood. I also believe that a peaceful home is essential for a smooth transition. I offer unique guidance on bringing babies home to pets, helping you set up your nursery and home rhythm in a way that makes your animals feel secure and included. My goal is to provide a "supportive safety net" for your entire household, bridging gaps in care with compassion, education, and unwavering advocacy. I look forward to providing you with virtual care

Hi all I am Britni! I first started into doula work after the birth of my first child. After a positive and empowering experience where I learned a lot, especially self advocacy, I started helping friends and family educate themselves and advocate for their desires. After officially venturing into doula work, my goal has always been to support and educate families about what their options actually are so that they step into their birth experience knowledgeable and empowered. I also strongly believe that supporting the body leads to better birth so I also love connecting families with other professionals in the area that can support them in that way. When I am not at a birth or supporting a family I am either teaching a Newborn Care class or a Cloth diapering class. In all my extra free time I am either homeschooling, gardening, cooking, or curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee or tea.

I am a newly initiated Postpartum Doula with Uzazi Village here in KCMO and soon to be peer lactation counselor through The B. L. A. C. K. Course. Also, I have worked in early April education for over 20 years.
