Hello, and welcome! My name is Shaniqua, and I am a birth doula and birthing assistant currently completing my professional training. I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based support to growing families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My journey into birth work is deeply personal. I was inspired by my mother’s birth story and my own experiences navigating pregnancy and Cesarean births. Those experiences showed me how important it is for every mother to feel informed, heard, respected, and supported. Especially when birth doesn’t go exactly as planned. While I have a special passion for supporting families preparing for or recovering from Cesarean births, I am honored to support mothers and families through all types of birth experiences. My goal is to help you feel empowered to make informed decisions, advocate for your needs, and approach your birth with confidence and peace of mind. As I continue my training and education, I remain committed to learning, growing, and providing compassionate care rooted in respect, empathy, and continuous improvement. I believe every birth story matters, and it would be a privilege to walk alongside you during one of the most meaningful journeys of your life. Thank you for considering me to be a part of your birth team. I look forward to supporting you with kindness, encouragement, and wholehearted care every step of the way.

Hello, and welcome. I’m Afrika White McCrea, a wife, mother, birth doula, newborn care specialist, and the heart behind VillageHer. Over the last fifteen years, I’ve had the honor of caring for families during some of the most beautiful, exhausting, joyful, and vulnerable moments of their lives. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: No one was ever meant to do this alone. Bringing a baby into the world changes everything. Alongside the excitement and love can come uncertainty, overwhelm, endless questions, and the quiet hope that someone will simply say, “I’ve got you.” That’s why I do this work. I believe parents deserve more than information, they deserve reassurance. They deserve to be nurtured while they nurture. They deserve a space where they can ask questions without judgment, cry when they need to, celebrate the little victories, and feel supported through every transition that parenthood brings. Whether I’m holding space during labor, rocking a newborn in the middle of the night, helping a mother find her confidence, or simply reminding parents that they’re doing better than they think, my goal is always the same: to help families feel cared for, connected, and never alone. VillageHer was born from the belief that every family deserves the kind of support we often wish we had ourselves—a village built on compassion, trust, and genuine care. It is a privilege to be welcomed into such a sacred season of life, and I would be honored to walk alongside your family as you grow. Because no family should have to do this alone. 🤎
