Nina, went above and beyond to support me throughout my entire birth journey. From helping me create a birth plan to being there for prenatal visits, emotional support, and even assisting with meals and breastfeeding education after my baby was born, Nina truly is a rockstar. Her kindness, flexibility, and care made such a positive impact on my experience. I had a wonderful and memorable birth journey because of her.

I believe that every family deserves compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs and circumstances. Whether you need emotional support, practical assistance, or educational resources, I am here to help you navigate the postpartum period with confidence and ease. My practice is built on the foundation of inclusivity and respect. I am committed to creating a safe, nurturing environment for all families.I understand the challenges that can arise during the postpartum period, and I am dedicated to providing the support needed to ensure a positive and empowering experience. My diverse training and certifications enable me to offer a wide range of culturally sensitive and informed care practices. Let's work together to create a nurturing and supportive environment for you and your family during this important time.

I am a birth and postpartum doula located in the Metro Detroit with a background in public relations. I have over a year of experience with a vaginal birth rate over 80%. I am passionate about birth work as a result of my own experiences with 2 preventable c-sections and a vaginal birth after cesarean (attended by a doula). In addition this work is dear to my hear having witnessed the impact of the advocacy, support and assistance doulas provide especially in the lives of women of color.

I can’t recommend Jill and Happy Kiddos OT enough! I attended one of her baby play classes and was blown away... She created such a fun, engaging environment that made me feel confident as a parent while supporting my baby’s development.

Chloe was the most professional, helpful, and trustworthy postpartum doula imaginable. She had a relaxed/thoughtful demeanor, was incredibly competent, and our baby loved spending time with her. She was always one step ahead of our little guy's development, was the perfect addition to our home, and we really couldn't be more grateful.
