About me

Hi there! I'm Nicky Dawkins, I am a full circle doula, hormonal health coach, womb practitioner, and herbalist based in Miami, FL. I have been working in women's health as a doula for over 10 years. In addition to doula services, I offer yoni steaming and placenta encapsulation/art. I work with women and families from menarche (your first period) to menopause and everything that happens in between. I have a deep passion is to help people have a healthy period, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience with as little intervention as possible. I specialize in supporting women with uterine health conditions (fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS) infertility, twins/multiples, and families who have experienced pregnancy and/or infant loss. Whenever I'm not doing my work as a doula, I enjoy exploring the city with two children and spending time in my beautiful garden!
