2 years of experience

Hi! I’m Morgan, a holistic doula based in Spring Hill, TN. With a passion for pregnancy, birth and postpartum support, I advocate for women to choose the path that resonates with them, blending traditional midwifery and free birth philosophies. Having personally experienced the enchantment of childbirth twice as a mother, I aspire to guide and empower other moms on their magical journey. At 25, a wife, and a mother of two boys (3 and 6 months), I bring a unique perspective to my practice. Balancing holistic approaches with an understanding of the essential role of western medical intervention, I ensure a supportive and diverse approach to each pregnancy. As a former hairstylist, I’ve transitioned my passion for nurturing to the realm of birth. Outside of doula work, you’ll find me indulging my Scorpio spirit, watercolor painting, enjoying music, and perhaps a bit too passionately savoring my coffee. Let’s embark on your birthing journey together, embracing the magic and empowerment it brings!

Morgan is such a kind, caring, beautiful soul, that will be an amazing support during the most important time of your life. She is intentional, proactive and attentive- she will surely be the best fit for all of your birthing needs. I have witnessed first hand how well Morgan reacts under pressure and I can say she is someone I would want in my corner while giving birth. As a mom, Morgan is experienced as she handles things with grace and has such a soothing presence. I think Morgan with Haven Birthing Co would be such a great choice as a doula for your birthing journey.

Our Journey with Olivia started when I discovered that I was already almost 3 months pregnant. In fact before I was present at my niece’s birth when my sister also gave birth at home and Olivia was her midwife. Since then, I knew that when I got pregnant I would want her as my midwife. Of course this is a decision to be made as a couple so when I spoke with my husband he was quite apprehensive as we were in the most difficult financial phase of our lives and we could do it for free through the national health system. He told me “ My love, with that money we can feed many poor people and God will be more pleased with us, but you decide” to which I replied “But the pregnancy and birth are very important for the future of our baby and can affect him so much” so we decided to choose Olivia and giving birth at home. It was definitely the best decision. The only decision. Olivia took care of us from every corner that we didn’t even know existed. She gave us so much information and all through natural means. She is very down to earth at the same time. We followed all her advice and we understood all the science involved and I can tell you that the results where amazing. I was hearing and seeing my pregnant friends suffering and with bloated feet etc. I had the best pregnancy ever, no bloated feet, not exhausted, full of energy eating very well and the results were a very healthy son. My birth was not easy at all because of my body structure and my son had his head in the wrong position. It took 14 hours and most of it was in the expulsion part. I can tell you if I was in a Hospital I am sure they would have done a C-section. She advised us at every step in a very smooth and organic way with all the science involved explained and with simple daily steps. And she gave us all her love. On the birth day she involved the family and created the best environment for this very special day. The most difficult and the best day of our lives. I had my husband and my mother always around, and she explained them how to do this special massage to relieve the pain and special smoothies etc. I can’t explain all the magic but in such a difficult moment she makes the best environment happen. After the baby borns she is there for you to assist you in every detail, teach you and make you feel confident and happy without fears (there are so many new parents full of fears and even many arrive to not be able to breastfeed, and simply because they didn’t have this assistance). My husband, one week after the birth, said to me “you know, if we had more money I would pay Olivia much more because really, she is more than great, you were right!” I had amazing recovery after the birth because I followed all her advice and of course my family support. But truly her knowledge is amazing. She has more than 3000 births experience in very different conditions even in African countries with very poor conditions. And I think that that experience and her BIG heart made her a really amazing midwife and friend. I wish I had more words to describe better. Until today years later I ask her questions when my son is sick or I have any doubt, and always I get a complete response of someone who really cares. I hope she trains more people to be like her because this world really needs it. I had a very good friend giving birth some days before me in the hospital. She got no explanations what so ever and when she went home she and her baby were sick. So I advise her to consult Olivia which she did and then she called me and said “sister thank you so much really, Olivia saved us, she is amazing”. We are not aware but there are many diseases and conditions that a baby can get just because of the birth or the pregnancy, especially breathing problems ( like I have) and we can avoid it just having the right knowledge and help on our side. And Olivia, apart from being a good friend, she has that knowledge and gives that help. I know she is not in my country at the moment but I told her when I get pregnant again (soon inshallah) she must come or I will go to her because I don’t want anyone else but her as our midwife. I am sure God will reward her for her great heart and amazing “work”. Thank you Olivia. We love you.

Heidi was an amazing doula during my pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum! She goes above and beyond to make sure you are supported, informed, and that your birth plan is respected by your entire healthcare team. The birth of my twins went nothing as I would have initially wanted as I was planning for a natural birth with the least intervention as possible but due to my twins being breech, my only safe option to deliver them was a c-section. Heidi even referred me to an amazing prenatal body work specialist to attempt to safely reposition my babies into head down position. She really became a trusted voice and friend along the way for me and my husband due to her extensive birth experience as a doula. On the day of my planned c-section, Heidi advocated for me in many ways when I was nervous and apprehensive during my surgical preparation. She also was able to be in the OR with my husband and I during the delivery of our twins and then assisted with my first breastfeeding session and initial post-operative recovery time. I would recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a doula to support their pregnancy, labor, and delivery! While we have our hands full now with twins, I would definitely hire Heidi again if my husband and I decide to get pregnant again! I cannot thank her enough and am so grateful we had her support along the way even if my birth was not exactly as I would have hoped. It was still a miraculous day as I delivered two very healthy babies for which I am so grateful!

It made this birth a lot more enjoyable (than my first).” “Tanya came to be with us shortly after our release from the hospital and ensured a much easier transition. She was willing to help with whatever would make our lives easier with a new baby – helping with laundry, errands, and making sure we were all eating and resting, to spending precious one-on-one time with our toddler! We are so thankful for Tanya and her sweet, calming nature.” “Two years and two kids later, Tanya’s calm, caring, nurturing ways have helped us navigate this unpredictable journey of parenthood through the toughest days and longest nights.

I cannot say enough of how much of a difference Tanya has made throughout the entire process and how grateful I am for her.”

As a postpartum doula, I, Jana, am dedicated to helping new parents get much-needed restful nights while caring for their newborns. With genuine passion, I form meaningful connections and find joy in witnessing parents experience rejuvenating sleep, empowering them for the day ahead. My journey as a doula began after realizing my calling extended beyond the classroom, where I worked as an infant teacher for years. I provide emotional and physical support, tailoring my approach to each family. Operating in Franklin and nearby areas, my philosophy centers around nonjudgmental assistance, leaving families with a deep sense of worth and the belief that they can overcome challenges. By reducing stress, I enable mothers to prioritize self-care and bonding with their baby. Think of sleep as a valuable resource that needs to be replenished to help you function at your best. I am here to provide the assistance you need

I can’t say enough positive things about Jana. Both of my children adore her. She is passionate about children and it shows in the way she cares for them. She was my postpartum doula after the birth of my son and I can’t imagine having gone through that experience without her!!!! It’s incredibly important to get rest during that time but for me it was even more important to have peace of mind that whomever was taking care of my son at night was the best of the best! So grateful for Jana!

Greta O'Hara

Hi! I’m Greta, a doula offering prenatal and postpartum support to families in Middle Tennessee and virtually through my practice, Cradle & Kin. I’m also a wife to Brandon and mama to our daughter Charlotte, and I’ve always held a deep respect for the weight and beauty of motherhood. Pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum season are meaningful, vulnerable transitions, and I believe they deserve thoughtful, compassionate support. After experiencing firsthand how impactful it is to be well supported during this time, I felt called to offer that same care to other families. I view this work as a calling and a way to serve families with Christ-centered care, compassion, and support. I strive to serve families with during pregnancy and postpartum with education, emotional support, and practical care. However you’re entering this chapter, whether with joy, questions, overwhelm, or all of the above, I would be honored to walk alongside you and be a small part of the village supporting your growing family :)

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Greta. She was truly incredible—so intuitive and nurturing in every moment. She seemed to know exactly what I needed before I even said it, whether it was help processing my birth experience, a listening ear, or a few quiet minutes just to rest. She jumped right in with meal prep, laundry, and all the little tasks that feel so overwhelming in this season. She cared for my older child with such gentleness and joy, giving me the rare gift of being able to lie down and fully soak in those newborn snuggles without worry. Her presence brought so much peace, support, and ease into our home. I’m endlessly grateful for the way she cared for our whole family and can not wait to have her again for all our future babies! Highly, highly recommend.
