I am Raelene Whitehead! I trained and certified as a birth doula in November 2021, and attended my first birth later that month. I opened Shiloh Birth LLC a few months later. I added placenta encapsulation and childbirth education to my services in 2023! I became a birth doula and placenta encapsulationist because I believe women deserve support. Women deserve education and information especially when it comes to pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My desire and mission is to help women develop a peaceful environment for them to birth in. I want moms to feel safe and respected with the decisions they make when it comes to their body and baby. When I am not at a birth or encapsulating a placenta, I am a stay-at-home wife and mama.

Raelene was so sweet in my postpartum recovery and over delivered in every aspect with my order. I tell all my pregnant friends how crucial her product was to how fast I bounced back after my baby! Thank you for all your hard work Raelene I’ll definitely return!

Raelene is amazing. I’m so glad we hired her. It’s comforting to know that a knowledgeable and kind person can be your advocate for your birth plan even when things may not go as you expected them to. 😊. Highly recommend her as a doula because she gives great tips on pain management and ways to dilate.

Raelene was really awesome the entire process. She was recommended by one of my nurses to encapsulate my placenta. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable and kind. I only wish I had encapsulated my placenta for my previous pregnancies:) I highly recommend her and her services!!!

Raelene is amazing and so informative. When I first spoke to her she made me feel so comfortable and is super sweet! I had my placenta encapsulated and she did an amazing job with informing me on how it worked and what to expect. The placenta prints were amazing, she did a terrific job! I highly recommend Shiloh Birth, you will not be disappointed!

I received the service of Placenta encapsulation. This service EXCEEDED my expectations! I made special requests which were filled with ease. The received package was absolutely breathtaking and definitely lifted my new-mom heart! The placenta print is gorgeous 😍 The cord keepsake is darling 🥰 I'm super excited to use the salve and tinctures! 🌿 And the capsules came out perfect as well! 💊 I was also super excited to have received a sitz bath and can't wait to use it! Definitely recommend to everyone to utilize her services! I can only imagine the love behind her Doula services given the top notch completion of placenta encapsulation!

Raelene Was my Doula For my HomeBirth, and i wouldn’t have asked for anyone better to give me the support i needed! during every visit she was super open, and listened to anything i may have had to say, she gave me tons of useful information and helped me a lot throughout my whole pregnancy. When I called and told her i was having contractions she was there in the blink of an eye, and just having someone sit there with me, having someone to talk too made all the difference! I’m so so thankful for her, and all she did for me and my little family!

I absolutely loved having raelene as my doula. She has very calm and soft energy which is what we need through pregnancy and labor! She came to me hours before labor even started and supported me so much! My birth plan didn’t go as planned and she never left my side even with a hospital transfer. I highly recommend her as a doula ❤️
