I certified as a Full Spectrum Birth Doula in 2021. I am a veteran birther, having had 8 babies. I have written two pregnancy books and working on third. AFTER raising 8 babies I found myself wanting to share my experiences and knowledge with other Mama's. I can tell you which of my pregncies were hydrated or dehydrated. I am starting a movement to empower all mamas from every walk of life. I want you to be a part of it. It doesn't matter to me if I am your hired doula or just a mentor. I want to make sure every women pregnant experiences the best possible outcome. To do that you must come to a complete understanding in regards to the first molecule of life Water!! Water is the key ingredient that empowers every pregnancy! I offer workshops and personal counseling based on my book available on Amazon "I am Water Understand Hydration during Pregnancy " Its her (your)body, her (your) pregnancy her (your) health. I believe every woman needs an advocate to make sure her birth plan manifests! Helping Mama's achieve their personal birth story goals is my life mission. Women today are dealing with different maternal factors than previous generations. Every pregnant mom wants a diet that is healthy. But in today's world that may not be as easily attainable as you would believe. We rely heavily on processed foods that are highly concentrated with sodium. Nearly every drink on the market comes in a plastic bottle. Juice, Water, Milk. We all have learned that microplastics is not healthy. Can we please have drinking products in aluminum cans with bpa free liners undetectable to taste or glass bottles? What are the consequences on a mothers body with added sodium and lots of plastics? When a mother consumes these products while pregnant does this put your health and your babies health on the best track? Is there a simple solution that all mothers can use? I ABSOLUTELY LOVE teaching expecting mothers the importance of hydration during Pregnancy in todays packaged and processed food world. We are all told by our medical team to drink more water and stay hydrated. BUT what does that really mean? As a birth doula I have found moms have questions that they feel are embarrassing to discus about hydration for fear of being thought ignorant. I explain to my moms that honestly that is the most important question you could ask. I break down what water does for you and your baby. We go over possible complications from dehydration. Lastly we discuss preventive hydration care. DID YOUKNOW YOUR BABYS BODY COMPOSITION AT BIRTH IS 70-75% WATER? It is simple, it's easy and makes a difference in regards to how a mom feels physically as well as emotionally about her body and baby. The health impovements that occur with a well hydrated mother are vastly important. Learn what they are and how to hydrate you and your baby. You can purchase on Amazon.

I honestly can’t thank Deserie enough for everything she did for me during labor and delivery. ❤️🥹 As a first-time mom, I was going through so many emotions. I was nervous, scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what to expect, but having her by my side made such a huge difference. She was there to support me, encourage me, comfort me, and remind me that I was stronger than I thought. Labor is such a vulnerable and emotional experience, especially when you’re becoming a mom for the very first time. Having someone who genuinely cares about you, understands what you’re going through, and makes sure you feel supported is priceless. She made me feel less alone and gave me the reassurance I needed during some of my hardest moments. I will forever be grateful for the love, patience, kindness, and support she showed me while I brought my baby girl into this world. 💕🥹 Becoming a mother for the first time is a moment I will never forget, and having Deserie as part of my birth journey made it even more special. I truly don’t think I could ever fully put into words how much her support meant to me and my family.

Jasmine is a wonderful Midwife. I’ve worked with her on mini homebirths. She really takes the mother’s medical care to heart. She listens to the mother’s concerns questions and requests and meets them how she can. I recommend Jasmine Wagster as a homebirth Midwife for a safe and healthy delivery.

Alyssa Taylor

I am a Certified Professional Midwife, Certified International Midwife, Licensed Midwife, Certified Labor Doula, Certified Lactation Specialist, university educator, published author, and researcher with over 1,000 births attended. I am now mostly retired from midwifery practice and accept repeat midwifery clients only. I am currently accepting new clients for birth support at Summa Health in Akron. Occasionally, I will consider support at another hospital. If you would like to discuss this possibility, please feel free to send me a message here or via my website. I have supported families as a doula for many years, beginning prior to midwifery school and continuing throughout my midwifery career. I bring the knowledge of a midwife and the presence of a doula, walking with you from early pregnancy through those tender first weeks postpartum. I intentionally limit my calendar so that when your labor begins, I am fully rested and able to focus entirely on you. I am a wife, a mother of four, mother-in-law, and a proud grandmother of two. I know firsthand how much this season of life matters, and I would be honored to be part of yours.

Alyssa is kind and knowledgeable and very informed as to what herbs/supplements and even meds to use at any given time. She’s been present for 3/4 of my babies and I would hire her again without question.

October 2026

Deserie is the definition of professional. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable & thorough, but also tremendously compassionate, caring, & comforting. It was very clear to us from minute one that she would go above & beyond for us the way that she did. Our son’s delivery was challenging to say the least, but Deserie’s drive to be there for us every step of the way made our experience exponentially better. She is as genuine a person as you will find in life & we wholeheartedly recommend Deserie to anyone that is fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with her!

— Cooper S., review of Deserie Hurt

October 2026

Deserie was absolutely an amazing doula. I felt heard, respected, and cared for at all times, especially during my birth experience. She is very hands on and will make sure you need and have everything you need. Her presence is also so calming, which can be a breath of fresh air when you are doing one of the hardest things you’ll ever do. I couldn’t recommend her enough. If we decide to have another baby, she will be our doula again.
