I believe pregnancy & birth are a woman's Right To Passage. Birth s a scared time for mom, dad, and baby. and We will discuss your goals, for your pregnancy, labor, postpartum, and you as a new mother. My job is to support you through this transition into motherhood
I just gave birth to my 1st child in December of 2021, and being nervous about my 1st birth experience I opted to hire Zina as my doula. I am so so glad I did! Pregnancy/birth is such in intense personal experience, but from the start of our zoom calls, I felt comfortable with Zina right away. Via these initial zoom calls Zina helped ease my anxiety pre birth with multiple check ins. I really valued her extensive knowledge and experience with both hospital and home births. She was such an amazing coach throughout the birth. I had to be medically induced so my constractions were fierce. Zina helped coach me through some intense construction pain AND pushing pain and was a calming presence throughout. Post birth Zina has checked in a few times and offered great suggestions on tea to help with breastfeeding, messages that helped reduce swelling in my feet, etc. It's nice to have that touch point and to feel taken care of! She helped make my whole 1st birth experience a positive one.

Hi a Postpartum Doula and have been serving families in Hampton Roads since 2016. I am a homeschooling mama of 4. I found that I loved support mothers postpartum.
Tina was incredibly helpful during my postpartum recovery. I feel as though she was there for me just as much as she was there to help me care for my new baby. I look back on that time and think that all of her help really gave me great tools for success as I became a mom for the first time! My parents had hired Tina to be my postpartum Doula, since they are not physically able to help. After nearly dying on the table during my C-section, there was a lot to process. She was such a great resource and support throughout this time! I will never forget all that she did to help me get going! I still keep in touch with her today almost 6 years later! I Highly recommend Tina to anyone looking for a top notch doula!

Hello, my name is Brooke Walke. After 10 years as a professional nanny, I have chosen to focus on infant and parent care in the Postpartum Doula world. I have worked with all kinds of families and pride myself on my ability to mold to fit the needs of each individual family.

This was the best birth experience Iâve ever had. Mylah made sure my family and I were prepared with all the tools we needed leading up to birth. She gave me comfort measures that helped me labor at home and have a quick and easy birth. I would have a million more babies just to have Mylah as my doula. I am beyond grateful for her and her knowledge. Even after birth she is still here with her full support ready to show up for anything I need as we transition from 1 to 2 kids. Blessed to call her family now and cannot thank her enough. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Hi there! I'm Rebekah Niesen, and I became a Certified Birth Doula after having 4 kids. I firmly believe that labor support, both emotional and physical, has an incredibly positive effect on labor outcomes, health of mother and baby, even bonding of your new family. My background includes the various fields of a degree in Microbiology and my first job which was to mentor college students, uniting my interests of research with communication and coaching. I have applied this to being a birth doula, educating the family in evidence-based best practice to cultivate advocacy empowerment and how it pertains to each individual situation. When I am not serving others, you can find me walking the dog, reading a good book, accompanying my average singing with my average guitar playing, or playing board games with my husband and kids. I take Tricare insurance and can work with you if your insurance covers family services.

I am dedicated to helping you achieve the empowering transition into motherhood that you deserve! I specialize in supporting unmedicated hospital births and homebirths.
Amanda is such a huge blessing! She is very knowledgable and a comforting, supportive presence during such a vulnerable time. My husband and I were not originally going to hire a doula, but at the last minute (8 months pregnant) we decided we would want the extra support for our home birth as we are both first-time parents. We found Amanda through Facebook recommendations, and she was able to meet with us quickly, answer all of our questions (even bring up points we hadn't thought of yet), and provide us with the resources and knowledge to have a successful home birth. She does offer some prenatal education classes and while we were not able to attend the first session due to how late we found each other, the second session was so worth it - especially the exercises for pain management! The day of labor she was quick to respond to us and even coordinated with our midwife so that I could focus on my labor and my husband could focus on me. She provided excellent guidance and support to my husband so that he was the one comforting and helping me during labor and she was able to step in when needed. She even took care of our dog! We truly could not have asked for a better experience or a better doula than Amanda, and we have both said that we would absolutely work with her again if we are still in the area!

I have been working in the perinatal support field since July 2020 as a breastfeeding peer counselor and then as a birth doula. My own experiences with birth and breastfeeding led me to birth workâI was inspired to support others the way I had been supported. Birth and parenthood has a way of helping us discover strengths we didn't know we had. It is the greatest honor of my life to help my clients find their own strength along their unique journey into parenthood.

Sabrina was my doula during my labor and delivery. She was there with me when my husband and I checked in at the hospital to the time our baby boy was born. Her support, encouragement, and care helped me through the toughest moments of my birthing experience. If you are looking for a doula in the Newport News/Williamsburg area, I highly recommend Sabrina!

I cannot say enough good things about Shonna!! This was my first experience with a doula and I highly recommend it for anyone having a child. From the first interaction during my second trimester, until our last interaction post delivery - she has been nothing short of amazing. Shonna was always calm, supportive, reassuring, and ALWAYS saw the positive side of things. She is an expert in this profession and has made my first time with a doula an unforgettable experience. If I decide to have another one, she will be my first choice. Thank you so much Shonna for everything you did to help with the arrival of our baby!!

I am a Birth Doula that is passionate about working with families to help them achieve the birth experience that they are looking for. I provide emotional, physical and educational support during pregnancy, labor and delivery, as well as during the postpartum period.
Susan is absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone! My husband and I had never considered the idea of having a doula for my pregnancy and birth of our son, but then we attended a class that she helped teach. The benefits of having a doula were explained and we instantly knew that we wanted to have one. Susan was so informative, excited about her work and welcoming - we connected with her right away! We loved how involved she was from the very beginning of us deciding to work with her. She met with us to determine if she would be a good fit - which she was! Once we hired her as our doula, we had multiple lunches to discuss our birth preferences and to answer any and all questions we had. During birth and delivery, she helped us determine when contractions were close enough to head to the hospital, she helped me work through the pain, and made us feel safe and prepared. When it was time for me to push, my son had the cord wrapped around and his stats were dropping. Susan, the doctors and the nurses helped keep me calm throughout that and made sure me and baby were safe! Once our son was born, Susan stayed with us to help with skin to skin and with the initial breastfeeding. We were so worried that I would have a traumatic birth, but with Susan by our side that was absolutely NOT the case. If / when we have another baby, we will 1000% have her by our side again - we LOVE her!

We had the absolute best experience with Tory, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment she walked into our home, she brought an immediate sense of calm and confidence that we desperately needed. After just one visit, our entire household felt more settled. She didnât just care for our newbornâshe taught me how to care for him with new techniques, hands-on guidance, and so much patience. She showed me how to soothe him, how to read his cues, and how to manage those fussy moments that had felt overwhelming before. Her approach was gentle, practical, and incredibly reassuring. On top of that, both the baby and I were coming down with a cold, and she handled the situation with so much compassion. She showed me how to help a congested newborn, helped me feel more confident in what to watch for, and even let me get much-needed rest. I truly felt cared for as a new mom, not just supported in caring for my baby. If you are looking for someone who brings expertise, calm energy, and genuine care into your home, Tory is absolutely exceptional. One visit made such a meaningful difference for us, and I am so grateful for her. I am excited to work with her again and ensure that Iâve really taken her lessons to heart.
