My name is Felicia Williams, and I am the founder of Genny Elizabeth Doula Services. I am a proud mother of six daughters, and my journey through motherhood — especially my own postpartum experiences — is the driving force behind the care I provide to families. During my fourth trimester, I was surrounded by the love and support of my family — my village. That support allowed me the space to rest, heal, and step into motherhood with confidence. However, through my journey, I became deeply aware that not every mother has access to that kind of care. Many women enter postpartum life exhausted, overwhelmed, and without consistent support.

I stand beside you and your family as a steady source of encouragement, reassurance, and strength, trusting God’s presence in every moment of your birthing journey.

I am a Postpartum Doula certified through Childbirth International. I have a large extended family and have always been used to being around and working with children.

With all of this, I felt that I could best support families in a different way and decided to become certified as a Doula. I find comfort in supporting families in a comprehensive and holistic way. I look forward to opportunities to support any type of family in the community. When I am not working I enjoy backpacking, photography, and spending time with family.

Hi! My name is Lexi, I am a postpartum doula, and soon to be birth doula! (April 2024!!!). I come from a community with very limited resources for pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My goal is to help that. I myself want to be a resource for you, to allow you to have the birth and postpartum journey that you want. I aim to provide families with resources, confidence and peace. I focus mainly on breastfeeding support, nutrition and meal prepping, postpartum prep, and most of all, just being a listening, non judgmental, supportive ear or shoulder. In my spare time I love to spend time with my 3 year old daughter, go for walks and practice yoga. Let’s make your postpartum journey peaceful, cozy, and most importantly let’s make it what you want!
