I’m Rafiqa from Atlanta. I’m committed to showing up to support, to hold space, to build community and connection. Rafiqa means tender hearted, kind, compassionate, companion. This is what I intend to bring by creating safe, soothing, in some ways healing spaces and choices around pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and mother/parent-hood by walking alongside Black and Brown families in Atlanta and the surrounding areas. I support your choices, your body, your labor and your partner. I will hold your space, your hand, and your confidentiality. I trust you, your baby, your body, your partner, and your journey. I’m a Black mom of four, which has further influenced my fervor for the care and support all birthing and postpartum families receive during the major and beautiful transition that pregnancy and after bring. My trainings include birth doula (Mama Glow), postpartum doula (Birthing Advocacy Doula Training), prenatal yoga (Yoga Renew), Afro and Indigenous placenta traditions (Bibi + Ni), and Grandma’s Hands Pregnancy and Postpartum Herbs and Nutrition in the Southern Tradition. Let’s journey together to ensure that you and your family feel empowered, educated, and supported in the personal and unique ways that suit who you are and what you desire.

I provide birth and postpartum doula care. Just as pregnancy, birth, and parenthood are unique experiences, each person is going to have different needs. I will tailor services to provide you with support and care to fit your specific needs. All packages include a complimentary consultation.
