Hello, My name is Alyssa Wagler and I am a birth doula supporting clients in the southeast Iowa region. I LOVE birth! I have 4 children of my own and have supported over 70 births so far. After having a doula for myself, I understood the importance of moms getting education, support, and advocacy during pregnancy and labor. That's when I trained to be a doula with Stillbirthday academy. I have since done training with Spinning Babies as well, to help further my understanding of comfort measures while also helping labor to progress. It is a truly humbling privilege and honor to support moms and dads as they transition into parenthood. Bringing new life into this world is a gift and I'd be honored to guide you.

I am a birth doula and photographer, and I serve the areas in and around Fulton, Columbia, and Jefferson City. I became a doula because a woman's experience in labor and childbirth can often affect how confident she feels as a mother, especially in the early weeks postpartum. The role of a mother is an important one and it is vital that she feels empowered to make decisions for herself and her children that line up with her beliefs and values. Mothers have certain beliefs and values because they believe that these will be the most beneficial for their children and I want to support that.

Hello, my name is Krissy Olson and I am a birth and postpartum doula serving the western Illinois region of Knox, Mercer, Henderson, Warren, Henry and Rock Island Counties. I believe birth is a deeply personal and transformative experience, and every person deserves to feel informed, respected, supported, and empowered throughout the journey into parenthood. As a birth and postpartum doula, I offer compassionate, nonjudgmental support that centers you, your baby, and your unique vision for this experience. I believe there Iis no single “right” way to give birth or become a parent. Whether your birth unfolds at home, in a birth center, or in a hospital; whether you are planning an unmedicated birth, choosing an epidural, or having a planned or unplanned cesarean—I am here to support you without judgment. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to help you feel confident making your own. I provide evidence-informed education, emotional reassurance, physical comfort measures, practical guidance, and a steady presence when things feel uncertain or overwhelming. I believe that informed consent and bodily autonomy are essential, and I encourage families to ask questions, understand their options, and advocate for the care that feels right for them. Birth is only the beginning. Postpartum is a profound transition that deserves just as much care and attention. I support families as they navigate recovery, feeding, sleep, newborn care, shifting relationships, and the emotional changes that come with becoming a parent. My goal is to help you feel cared for while you learn to care for your baby. At the heart of my practice is the belief that you already carry so much wisdom within you. I am not there to tell you what your birth or postpartum experience should look like. I am there to listen, educate, encourage, comfort, and remind you that you don't have to navigate it alone. My doula philosophy is simple: you deserve compassionate care, honest information, respect for your choices, and someone in your corner from pregnancy through those tender first days of parenthood.

Hi all I am Britni! I first started into doula work after the birth of my first child. After a positive and empowering experience where I learned a lot, especially self advocacy, I started helping friends and family educate themselves and advocate for their desires. After officially venturing into doula work, my goal has always been to support and educate families about what their options actually are so that they step into their birth experience knowledgeable and empowered. I also strongly believe that supporting the body leads to better birth so I also love connecting families with other professionals in the area that can support them in that way. When I am not at a birth or supporting a family I am either teaching a Newborn Care class or a Cloth diapering class. In all my extra free time I am either homeschooling, gardening, cooking, or curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee or tea.

I am a certified doula, breast feeding councilor and birth education.

Hello my name is Doula Asia . I like to consider myself as a DOULAPRENEUR I am the owner of Doula Love, Light, & Life LLC. I am a Mom, Community Health Worker and Maternal Health Advocate. I became a full spectrum doula in 2020 because I want all birthing people to know they have options and a voice that can and will be heard when it comes to their body and baby. I want to help you know what questions to ask your provider, to know how to advocate for yourself, and to know there is someone in your corner to support you through pregnancy/birth/and postpartum journey. Motherhood is a beautiful thing but there is no manual on how we should be a mother but if you have the right support team it will be one of our greatest moments.

My name is Kristen Gaither and I'm a certified birth doula. I trained in 2021 with Jamaa Birth Village in Ferguson and again in 2024 with Childbirth International. My passion for supporting birth came after the birth of my second daughter, when I experienced an overwhelmingly peaceful and powerful birth. Though my own experience led me to this work, my goal isn't to recreate an experience, but to help you discover the information and desires that bring you empowerment and peace throughout the process. Outside of doula work, my background is in social work, college ministry, and non-profit work. When I'm not supporting families, I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids, seeing live music, and deep conversations over good coffee.
