SummerNickol was the best doula and supporter I could have ever asked for during my pregnancy. As a first-time mom, I had so much to learn, and she guided me through everything I needed to know about becoming a mother. She encouraged me to take classes, helped me create a birth plan, and made sure the nurses and doctors knew my preferences. During delivery, she was a calming presence, teaching me breathing techniques and supporting me through every step. She truly takes her job seriously and goes above and beyond to ensure you’re comfortable, informed, and at ease. I was heartbroken when she moved because she was such an incredible part of my journey. SummerNickol was born to do this—she’s a natural nurturer and caregiver. If you’re looking for a doula who genuinely cares, she’s the one!

Ambria Moore

Hello, my name is Ambria and I’m a certified birth doula through DONA international. I have several years of experience working in the healthcare industry including OBGYN, and my experience there has helped me come to the conclusion that I want to give women more individualized and direct care. I’ve provided both in-person and virtual doula support. I'm here to support you in having the birth that you feel is best for you and your health, whether that birth is a scheduled induction, a repeat cesarean section, a natural delivery, or a VBAC. I am currently a part-time doula. My goal is to become a full-time doula and assist as many women and families as possible. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns and I look forward to hearing from you! Let’s make this an empowering journey together!

Ambria Moore was my prenatal and birth doula. She was more than that. She did an exceptional job. I had a cesarean section 12 months before I met her. I always wanted to have a vaginal birth. When I saw my provider I was literally shamed for wanting a vaginal birth 16 months after a cesarean. I lost all my hope until she stepped in. She believed more than me that I could do it. She was with me through every process and I had a very long exhausting labor. Everyone including me were exhausted but her. I would’ve given up if she wasn’t there! She was god sent! I had a very easy recovery and I was able to carry both my babies in a month. I would say she made it happen!

Anna Hussey

Hi, I’m Anna! I’m an early childhood educator, postpartum doula, infant care specialist, developmental therapist, and parent educator with more than 25 years of experience supporting infants, young children, and their caregivers. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in early intervention, developmental therapy, childcare leadership, and family support, giving me the opportunity to help families navigate everything from welcoming a new baby to supporting children’s growth and development. I believe every family deserves to feel informed, supported, and confident as they navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and the early years. My approach is compassionate, practical, and free of judgment. Whether I’m helping parents prepare for life with a newborn, providing hands-on postpartum support, offering developmental guidance, or supporting families through the everyday joys and challenges of early childhood, my goal is to create a calm, encouraging space where families feel empowered and supported. It is a privilege to walk alongside families during such an important season of life.

Recent review

We had a wonderful experience with Anna, who supported our family overnight for several weeks. From the very beginning, she made an effort to arrive early, learn our routine, understand our baby’s needs, and make sure she knew how we preferred things to be done. Our baby could sometimes be quite fussy at night, and she always handled those nights with patience and calm. She was attentive, dependable, and caring, and we felt completely comfortable having her care for him overnight. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands, and having her support allowed us to get some much-needed rest. We’re very grateful for all of her help during those early months and would absolutely recommend her to other families looking for a kind, reliable, and caring postpartum doula.

Nurturing and passionate Birth Doula devoted to serving families throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum. Believer in physiological birth and the power behind a prepared, informed and educated mother. My goal is to help all mothers achieve their dream births regardless of circumstances or path that their pregnancy might take them. I am a wife and a mother to two beautiful little boys who are my greatest accomplishments. I enjoy taking my boys to the park, gardening with them, going to the museum and having them bake alongside me in the kitchen. As long as it's sunny we like to spend the majority of our time outdoors. I am extremely passionate about health and wellness and prioritize the gym 4-5 nights a week, always training for those hip squeezes! I can't wait to get to know you!

100% recommend Katie. She was invaluable member to my birth team. As a first time mom, Katie was able to provide me with a safe sounding board for all of my questions, resources to point me towards to further my own edu and preparedness throughout my pregnancy. She was able to provide us physical, emotional, spirtual support throughout the pregnancy, labor and postpartum. Im confident to report she is a huge reason I was able to birth naturally, labor at home for as long as possible and start my labor spontaneously. She guided me step by step on what to do in each stage of labor and was a confident and appropriate advocate for me in the hospital.

I'm a midwife who found her calling after the births of her children. Truly a life changing experience it formed and shaped my practice and made me into the provider I am. Always learning and growing it's such a privilege to serve all families as they welcome the birth of a child. I homeschool my kids and love to read and raise ducks and geese on the side. Hiking and traveling with my kids is my other passion and as babies allow we travel the US and I get to share the beautiful country we live in with my kids via road trips and National Parks.

Recent review

Mya was my midwife for the birth of my daughter in August of 2025. I had an amazing experience with her, from beginning to end! She was very knowledgeable about the whole birth process, explained everything thoroughly, and was kind and understanding when I expressed any concerns. After a very intense labor, we ended up having to transfer to the hospital due to lack of progression. My baby had her cord wrapped around her neck several times, which caused a number of complications. Mya stayed by my bedside the entire time, to help me advocate for what I needed. Even in these deviations from our original birth plan, she brought the confidence and knowledge I needed to make the best decisions for me and my baby. I am so thankful Mya was my midwife! I cannot imagine what my birth would have been like without her. I definitely plan on using her again in the future as we expand our family. If you are looking for a compassionate, thorough, well-trained midwife, Mya is the one for you!

I am a faith based doula in the Triad area. Here to provide unconditional love & support during your pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum journey. I am passionate in serving mothers and giving them the much needed attention they deserve. After hiring a doula for our 2nd son’s birth I felt called to join her team! I had the best experience and redemption natural water birth of my dreams. For years I was scared of giving birth and didn’t feel like I could do it! But with the help and encouragement from my doula I went into pregnancy & childbirth with so much confidence. This is the love and support every mother deserves!! I will be your best friend through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Providing unlimited support through text/call. Being there for you when labor starts to help things go smoothly. Keeping you relaxed and rested whether home or hospital birth. I also will provide postpartum care best tailored to you personally. Whether it’s cooking your family a meal and/or doing some chores while you sleep. Each mother is different and my service will be modified to accommodate you specifically. I love spending time with my hubby and our 2 sweet boys. Anything outdoors, sunshine and good food you can find me there! We have lived in Nashville, Colorado and now rooted in Thomasville for good. I am a coffee and gym enthusiast when not mommin’ my crazy family. Check out Nurtured Mother NC website for more information! I am booking for mamas due 2025!

From my very first impression of Kati, she was very warm, genuine, and easy to connect with. Her gentle presence was exactly what my birth space needed when I was at my most vulnerable. From my prenatal appointment, to the birth room, and postpartum, Kati has been nothing but encouraging and first class. Highly recommend her services!

I am a veteran of the United States Air Force, spouse of a military retiree, International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (CBS), and La Leche League Leader (LLLL). I completed Associate of Arts in General Studies and Bachelor of Arts in Psychology degrees from American Military University. I am certified in BLS for the Provider and trained in AED use. My husband and I have seven children. It is because of them, that I am where I am today. I am not only educated on the birth process and utilizing comfort measures for pain relief, but also have personal experience. I had two births using epidural pain relief. Five of my births were medication-free. My breastfeeding journey with each of my children was different. Every journey was different because every baby was, and each had their own challenges. (The parent may know what they are doing, but the baby needs to learn.) My experiences with each of my children taught me many things about giving birth and human lactation throughout the years. Helping birthing and lactating parents meet their own goals is my goal. As a CBS, IBCLC, and doula, all of my education and experience will help me to provide families compassionate care throughout the birth process, postpartum period, and lactation journey.

Mary came over when my son was first born because he wouldn’t latch. We got him to latch when she came to the visit and he has been doing well ever since. She also has come over to do a weighted feed for my son so we could figure out how much he’s eating, he is exclusively breast fed. Then, she came over to help with bottle refusal. Mary is extremely reliable and makes time out of her schedule to help her clients. I definitely recommend her.

Hi, I’m Racine, a birth and postpartum doula.I work with capable, high-functioning women and their hardworking partners who want to be amazing in labor but are juggling full lives, full calendars, and a million responsibilities. You’re reading the books. You’re taking the classes. You’re doing everything people say will make you ready. But birth is unpredictable and when intensity rises, information doesn’t automatically turn into action. I prepare partners for childbirth to be steady, confident, and clear without having to tell him what to do or how to support you constantly so that you can focus on bringing your baby into the world. Because in labor, you shouldn’t have to run the room. You deserve to be supported by someone who already knows how to lead.

Choosing Racine as my birth doula was an absolute game-changer. From the moment we met, her unwavering support and wealth of knowledge put me at ease. She provided invaluable education throughout my pregnancy, ensuring I felt confident and empowered as my due date approached. What truly set her apart was her dedication to building a supportive team around me, seamlessly coordinating with my partner and healthcare providers to create a holistic birthing experience. Racine’s presence during labor was a calming force, offering emotional and physical support every step of the way. Her expertise not only eased my anxieties but also enriched the entire birthing process, making it a deeply fulfilling journey. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her exceptional care and dedication. I also wanted to add that I was not a very happy pregnant woman during my pregnancy, and I had a lot going to going on in my marriage and work life. Racine didn't judge me and encouraged to to seek counseling and also referred me to a great postpartum doula who made my transition to motherhood a breeze. I can't say enough about Racine. She has a heart of gold and anyone who hires her would find that out quickly. Please hire her and you will not regret it. I wanted to add that since I couldn't come up with the money all at one time, she did put me on a payment plan and that was nice and comforting.

Marcia has been such a blessing to my new little family. My husband and I are young first time parents. We knew we wanted extra support for the birth of our son, and from the time we met Marcia. We knew she was the right fit for us. She has been available for support 24/7 from the moment we signed on to work with her and even now with me in the 4th trimester. She played such an instrumental role in my pregnancy & birthing experience. From her evidence based research that she supplied us with, in order to allow us as parents to be knowledgeable/make the best decision for our family. All the way to just being a listening ear. I could go on and on but I will just say, I am so happy we invested in the birthing bee. The value we received was priceless

Hi! My name is Staci and I have a strong passion for birth work, informed consent, evidence based care, and supporting you in getting the birth you hope for, no matter how that looks. As a certified birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, CLC, and placenta specialist, you can say I absolutely adore my work and all the families I support. I promise I am judgement free and come with over 12 years of doula experience! I am so honored you're here and I look forward to supporting you as you grow your family. I support families in all birthing locations in the greater Charlotte, LKN, and Catawba areas (40-50 miles from Cornelius, NC) and those who desire unmedicated births all the way to scheduled cesareans. My only intention for you is that you get the birth you desire. That you walk away from your experience empowered and glowing. I'm huge on continuity of care, so I also value showing up for my clients in their postpartum period as a doula, lactation consultant, and friend.

She’s amazing- Hire her! I never planned on having a doula as part of my birthing experience, but I am SO grateful I did. Staci educated and enlightened me along the way, which not only granted for an incredible pregnancy and birth, but postpartum season as well. Her gentle and comforting approach is worth its weight in gold. I know my journey would not have unfolded as it did without her expertise. Thank you, Staci, for such an unforgettable, positive experience. ❤️

Katie Mayeux

Katie Mayeux is a skilled midwifery apprentice, birth and postpartum doula, folk herbalist, and internationally recognized yoga teacher with nearly two decades of experience in women’s wellness work. She began her midwifery studies in a small village in Guatemala, apprenticing with a traditional midwife and Mayan Ajq’ij (spiritual elder). It was here that she began to see birth as a rite of passage, a spiritual initiation and a healing pathway for a lineage to purify and rewrite the script. She subsequently graduated from the School of the Sacred Wild’s yearlong herbalism apprenticeship and has more recently gained clinical midwifery experience as an advanced student through the Maternidad La Luz Midwifery Immersion Program, during which she worked at a high-volume birth center on the US/Mexico border. Katie spent fifteen years as a yoga teacher, which gave her deep insight into the body, breath, and the power of movement. She now uses that training to support pregnant families, helping them find comfort, strength, and alignment throughout the childbearing year. She teaches a prenatal yoga class in El Paso and is currently completing her certification as a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner. She has attended over 100 births and currently resides in WNC.

Recent review

To Say Katie was a huge asset to our birth is an understatement. Katie impressed the entire birth team with over 50 years of experience. Katie is more giving and generous than anyone I have ever met. She takes time to prepare herself and make space for others, instead of jumping in with emotions. She is a safe haven on this journey. She helped me physically more than anyone at my birth. She was there during each and every contraction helping me and compressing my hips. When it was time for the birth she was brilliant enough to catch it on film! She has an intuitive nature around everything in life, and that serves in birth. My husband and I are forever grateful.

Hi my name is Jerilyn Free but I go by “Jeri”. I am from the Triad are and am definitely a unicorn in this field. I am an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and a Certified Birth Doula. I have been working as a Birth Doula since 2016. I have assisted in vaginal births, c-sections, vbacs, water births, virtual doula work, and have supported families that have dealt with a loss. My experience is wide! Currently, I work in a hospital as a Lactation Consultant. My special touch is assisting families in the early days of learning your baby. Working with teens/young adults. These times are very important. Many times birthing parents may not get that special attention. So as a doula and an LC, I am can be there at the birth and can assisting you with your feeding needs. I am one of the Community Directors for Mahogany Milk as well as the Coordinator and Lead for Mahogany Milk Drops at the YWCA in Greensboro. I am a mother of 3 girls, each who I breastfed.

I highly recommend any expecting or new parent to connect with Jeri. She truly was a game changer in my delivery of my second daughter. I didn’t have a doula with my first child and I have to say, having Jeri by my side this time made my entire birthing experience feel soooo much better! She is very attentive, knowledgeable, and personable. She supported me in meeting my goal of an unmedicated delivery by helping me move through each contraction in a way that help progress the labor process. Jeri also was able to guide my husband and family with how they could best assist me through the delivery as well. She was able to quickly build rapport with both the nursing staff and providers to ensure my wishes were known and upheld. I am SO grateful for Jeri and encourage everyone I know to utilize her services — you will not regret it!
