Let's be clear: your body, your birth, your rules. Annie is absolutely passionate about your bodily autonomy and a mother's sovereignty because, honestly, who knows your path better than you? Bringing over 40 years of doula experience and 13 years training other doulas to the plate, her mission is to be your unshakeable ally, arming you with knowledge, unwavering support, and perhaps a touch of that intuitive wisdom, so you can truly own your birth story.

Recent review

In 2019 I started my "trying" journey. I had two children previously but due to a contraceptive implant issue I was struggling to get pregnant for a third time. Annie guided me on how to advocate for myself which helped me be officially diagnosed with PCOS and a difficulty ovulating by December 2020. Early 2021 I was able to get medicinal intervention and get pregnant with my sweet littlest. I relied heavily on Annie's advice about diet, exercise, remembering to listen to my body, and advocating for myself. I suffered the third trimester with chronic nosebleeds, turns out was an open lesion in my left sinus. I would have just given in and let it go if not for the gentle and kindly advice. Annie lives 6 hours away from me, and if it weren't for little Eevee being born in less than that, she would have been here for her birth. But I had her in my heart, mind, and ear helping me advocate for the best delivery I could have. Since then, I have continued to keep a close friendship with Annie, and can easily say that if you want the very best care and to feel like you not only matter but are family, Annie Hill is the very best of the best.

I am a birth doula that dedicates my life to liberation work through centering marginalized communities in my birthwork. My mission as a doula is for black women, neurodiverent , disabled, & queer, folks to have safe and supported birthing experiences.

Recent review

I chose Ruqayyah to be my doula after finding out I was pregnant with my third child. She came in bringing gifts, was very attentive to our needs (even my first two children), showed up to doctors appointments, & she was also my therapist at times! She never overstepped any boundaries or made us feel uncomfortable, she was supportive of my decisions. Every time I reached out to her (no matter the time!) about anything, she was on standby during my pregnancy & after the birth. She’s very knowledgeable & she’s passionate about anything she sets her mind to do. If, I had the chance I would choose her to be my doula again!

Hi everyone! My name is Nina-Symone Sharpley and I am currently in school to get my birth doula certification under Childbirth Professionals International. However, I have been in early childhood development for three years with a focus in infant care. As I complete my training and hopefully get the experience in birth support, I would love to extend postpartum help to those in need of it!

My name is Ceara Jamerson. I am from El Dorado, Arkansas but I currently live in Jacksonville, Arkansas. I have been a nurse since 2019 working mostly in pediatrics and LTC. My dream has always been to become a Labor and Delivery Nurse. Earlier this year, I started researching the process of becoming a Doula in Arkansas. With my research I was able to find and enroll myself in Doula Training. I am now officially a Certified Doula. Although I am in the Central Arkansas area, I will be accepting clients for both in person and virtual appointments. If you know any expecting moms or anyone that simply wants more information on what services a Doula can provide, please refer them to me. Thank you all for your continued support - Ceara Jamerson

Doula Services FAQs

What is a doula and why should you hire one?

A doula is a trained support specialist who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to the mother before, during, and after childbirth. 98.6% of births in the U.S. take place in hospitals, and nearly all of them require some kind of medical intervention. However, doula-supported deliveries are linked to shorter labor, decreased need for medications, fewer c-sections, higher rates of breastfeeding initiation, less anxiety, and less postpartum depression.

Can you pay for a doula with HSA or FSA funds in Pine Bluff, AR?

To use HSA or FSA funds for doula services, they generally need to be considered medically necessary. You might need a doctor's note or prescription stating that doula services are necessary for a specific medical condition. Keep detailed records of payments and any supporting documentation, such as a doctor's note or prescription, to substantiate that the expense was medically necessary.

How much does a doula cost in Pine Bluff, AR?

The cost of hiring a doula in Pine Bluff, AR can vary depending on the individual doula and the services they provide. On average, the cost of a doula in Pine Bluff, AR ranges from $800 to $1200 for their services. However, it's important to contact individual doulas in the area to get an accurate estimate for their specific services.

Are doulas covered by insurance in Pine Bluff, AR?

Whether insurance covers the cost of a doula in Pine Bluff, AR, depends on your specific insurance plan and provider. Some insurance companies may offer partial or full coverage for doula services, especially if they are deemed medically beneficial or included in maternity care benefits. You should contact your insurance provider to confirm coverage details, including any requirements like using an in-network doula or obtaining a referral. Additionally, some Medicaid programs in certain states cover doula services, so it's worth checking if Arkansas Medicaid offers this benefit. If insurance does not cover the cost, some doulas may offer sliding scale fees or payment plans.

What types of doulas are for hire in Pine Bluff, AR?

In Pine Bluff, AR, you can find various types of doulas for hire, including birth doulas, postpartum doulas, and sometimes specialized doulas. Birth doulas provide emotional, physical, and informational support during pregnancy, labor, and childbirth, helping create a positive birthing experience. Postpartum doulas assist families after the baby is born, offering support with newborn care, breastfeeding, emotional well-being, and household tasks as needed. Additionally, some areas may have access to specialized doulas, such as bereavement doulas or fertility doulas, though availability can vary. To find a doula in Pine Bluff, it's helpful to check local directories, community resources, or organizations like DONA International or DoulaMatch.

When should I hire a doula in pregnancy?

You can start researching and contacting doulas as early as your first trimester. This allows you ample time to find a doula who aligns with your birth plan and build a rapport with them. Many people choose to hire a doula during their second trimester, around weeks 12 to 27. By this point, you likely have a clearer understanding of your birth preferences and can engage a doula who can provide support tailored to your needs. If you’re in your third trimester or even approaching your due date, it’s not too late to hire a doula. Some individuals make this decision later in pregnancy due to various reasons, and doulas can still offer valuable support and information during this time. The availability of doulas in your area may also influence when you hire one. In some regions, experienced doulas may have limited availability, so it’s wise to start your search early to secure the support you desire.

What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?

A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.

She was the absolute best! I wouldn’t change my birth experience for the world, she was such a great supporter and was there for me every step of the way! I love her and I am very grateful to have had her there with me. I’d do it all over again the exact same way.
