Hey 👋🏾 My nickname is Day and I am a holistic focused doula that provides both virtual support and in-person support throughout the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum support. I center Black, Indigenous, and Brown women of color in my work and also have a baby that I delivered at home with a midwife and exclusively breastfeed.

I am a Full Spectrum Birth and Postpartum Doula in Austin, TX trained through Doula Trainings International. I work with families throughout the birth process to create supportive care and systems so you feel empowered and educated throughout the entire birth process, as well as supported and cared for during the postpartum period. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQIA+ families and those who are in different stages of the birth process, including miscarriage and loss. Previously, I entered a software engineering career through working to design technologies for individuals with traumatic brain injuries in hospital settings, but after hearing about several friends and family members' birth and doula experiences, I decided I wanted a more caretaking and embodied role in creating equitable change and creating peaceful, embodied, and inclusive experiences for families. In my free time, I love to make art, chat over a latte, go for a lake swim, and see live music with friends.

As a holistic and full spectrum doula, I incorporate Yoga, Ayurveda, Meditation and Spiritual Mindfulness all into one strong union. It is this strong union of Body, Mind and Soul that promotes a safe, healthy and enjoyable pregnancy and birth for my clients. I add these services for my clients to add into their pregnancy and birth plans as well so that they can become more grounded, more flexible and more calm. Yoga can be beneficial for pregnant women in several ways: 🫀Physical Fitness: Yoga helps improve flexibility, strength, and balance, which can be especially useful for accommodating the physical changes that occur during pregnancy. 😌Stress Reduction: The relaxation and breathing techniques in yoga can help reduce stress and promote emotional well-being during pregnancy. 🪷Pain Relief: Yoga poses and stretches can alleviate common discomforts like back pain and sciatica that often occur during pregnancy. 🤰🏽Preparation for Labor: Certain yoga poses and breathing exercises can help prepare the body and mind for labor and delivery, promoting relaxation and focus during this critical time. 👩🏽‍🍼Connection with Baby: Practicing yoga can provide a space for the pregnant woman to connect with her body and the growing baby, fostering a sense of mindfulness and bonding. ❤️‍🩹Postpartum Recovery: After childbirth, yoga can aid in postpartum recovery and regaining strength and flexibility.

Hello! My name is Emma Talley and I am a certifying birth doula located in Austin, TX. My previous career as an elementary teacher and an outdoor sciences educator has provided me the skills to be the calm, listening presence at your side as you ride the wave of pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I am an open-minded and gentle birth doula who believes in the transformative power of childbirth.

My name is Meghan Boudreau - Doula and Placenta Encapsulation specialist with River Wild. I am so honored to be a part of this amazing community and am looking forward to serving you! ​ I live in Leander, TX with my amazing husband Colten, and our three wildly, wonderful children. On any given day, you will find our home full of giggles, singing, dance parties, coffee aromas, and home cooked meals - just the way we like it. If you ask my children what I do, they will tell you I “help mamas get the babies out”. Bless. ​ I was submerged into the birth world at a very young age, witnessing home births and having a deep relationship with our family midwife. Labor, placentas, and babies were very normalized topics in our house. I had the honor of witnessing and assisting at my own mother's home births, and thus, my passion and desire to serve expecting mamas was born! ​ I believe birth should always be navigated with women at the helm. I believe every woman has the freedom and maternal instinct to move, dance, laugh, cry, or roar as she finds her own unique path through labor. My job as a doula is to hold safe space for her to do just that. To come alongside each family with full acceptance, compassion, and advocacy so that they feel freedom that is rightfully theirs.

I am a queer parent to two kiddos, certified full spectrum doula, and student midwife through the National College of Midwifery. I’m an Austin native and my family and I live in South Austin with our small zoo of pets. My call to birth work was awakened through my own birthing experience which broke me open and sparked transformation in me. My passion and connection to this work deepened through the process of navigating fertility treatments, conception with donor sperm, logistical challenges of second parent adoption, and the unique emotions of being a non-gestational parent to our daughter and sitting in the role of partner to the pregnant/birthing parent. I’m passionate about supporting all of the unique flavors people and families come in, especially LGBTQIA+ families like my own.
