Hi! I am Cecelia Henningham, a fully capable, competent, nurturing, and compassionate mother of three, who enjoys caring for others as a caregiver. I go above and beyond to ensure that I am able to provide for anyone that is entrusted in my care and I believe that my ability to show constant effort makes me fit for completing any given tasks that I’ve been assigned, as well as having acquired competencies in the newborn care industry throughout my years of experience and certification. My nurturing nature stems from my personal experience as a mother, which compels me to be quite compassionate and driven in caring for others, and in addition, I enjoy listening and communicating with others while still maintaining a professional demeanor. I believe my skillset, certifications and passion for this field will make me a prime candidate in taking care of your newborn. I am a certified Newborn Care Specialist / Postpartum Doula with over 18 years of experience and have cared for children aged from newborns to 18 years of age. I am highly skilled in infant care, and have acquired extensive knowledge of safety precautions, feeding techniques, and educational activities to stimulate the social, cognitive, and physical development of your child.

As a Newborn Care Specialist /Postpartum Doula, I aim to provide vital personalized support to parents in the comfort of their home. My passion lies in offering guidance and instruction, to help in the building of confidence of parents,’ while still supporting their values and beliefs during the first few months of their baby’s life. From progressively teaching the babies to self sooth and establishing a healthy sleep pattern, to feeding in the middle of the night, and swaddling back to bed, all of which will help in the development of a healthy sleep schedule, providing comfort to both the baby and the parents.

I had the absolute best experience with Shellecia as my doula during my pregnancy with my daughter. From the very beginning, she made me feel supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. She came to my home and gave me so many tools to help me labor more comfortably, things I had never even heard of before. She took her time educating me, reassuring me, and easing every fear I had. One of the most helpful things she taught me and my partner were different positions and techniques we could use together to manage the intensity of contractions. They made such a difference when it was time to give birth. In the delivery room, Shellecia was truly my advocate. She asked important questions I didn’t even realize needed to be asked and was pretty much my voice entire process. Having her there felt like having a professional and a friend all in one. I’m so grateful for her guidance, knowledge, and calming presence. I highly recommend Shellecia to anyone looking for a doula she is truly amazing at what she does.

I've been working with Taja for several months. I met her when my baby was a few months old and I was having trouble figuring out how to get her to nap. Taja was very helpful in teaching me how to soothe my baby and help her nap. She is very dependable and trustworthy, has great perception in understanding what the baby needs and has good emotional intelligence. I have used her dozens of times for childcare and she is always early, helpful and very reliable.

When I first reached out to Meka about being our doula, she instantly responded with enthusiasm, tons of information and a motherly feeling of genuine care and support. I had read a few books, but didn’t really know what to expect and wanted a doula that was helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and great with communication. Meka exceeded all of my expectations, and I consider her an essential component of my successful birth experience. Meka is always in touch, whether it is sharing articles, resources, videos, answering my thousands of questions, getting to know my birth preferences and helping to calm my anxiety with suggestions and offering an ear to listen. She not only supported me, but my husband, as well, by making him feel more confident as a support partner, and more prepared for what the hospital might entail. We practiced breathing routines, experimented with the peanut ball, and learned so much about pregnancy, labor and delivery. Meka was nonjudgmental, extremely patient and understanding, calm and sensitive to my fears. Meka is flexible with her communication, whether it be virtual or in person, e-mail, texting, etc. She was the first person I called when I went into labor, and was immediately on the way at 4 am when my water broke, with her adorable doula shirt, of course! Meka was a warm and comforting presence throughout my labor. After coming home from the hospital, Meka constantly stayed in touch with my husband and I, and helped me during the postpartum visit, both physically and emotionally. It was so nice to see her afterwards and I know that we will stay in touch. I absolutely recommend Meka and know she will be an amazing advocate and support for your birth experience!
