Elise Benoit

Elise is a ToLabor Certified Birth Doula, a CAPPA trained Postpartum Doula, an IPPA trained Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, and a Lamaze Trained Childbirth Educator. Elise also attended the University of Georgia and Piedmont College and holds a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies. She is a mother to Theo and Georgia and is married to Todd. She entered into the doula field after her own birth, which showed her the importance of building a supportive birth and postpartum team. She continued to add trainings to help extend her knowledge about the many facets of birth and offer assistance through the postpartum time. Those trainings and workshops include: Acupressure in pregnancy and childbirth, Perinatal Loss and Grief, and Spinning Babies Techniques. Elise believes that education and unbiased support lead to each birthing family feeling empowered and informed when making childbirth decisions. After personally enduring a battle with postpartum depression, she hopes to help her clients feel supported through the entire childbirth experience including the fourth trimester. Through her work as a birth doula and her own experience, she saw her clients have beautiful births, but still struggle with energy and emotions during the postpartum experience. She offers placenta encapsulation as a holistic option to balance hormones, replenish iron, increase prolactin for milk production, and boost energy levels. Outside of the birth world, Elise enjoys cheering for UGA (Go Dawgs!), arranging flowers, reading, retail therapy, and watching Hallmark Christmas movies.

I absolutely credit Elise with the amazing positive empowering birth experience I was able to have as a first time mom. Her presence is soothing, confident, and maternal. My husband was so happy to have her there, so reassuring and helpful. Even though we arrived in the delivery room as I was in transition, she still managed to set the ambiance and calm mood I needed for the space. For anyone on the fence, I would say absolutely go for it. Having a doula is everything I had hoped it would be. I will be calling her when it’s time for baby #2

Hunter Moore

Hi, I'm Hunter and I've been a Birth Doula for over 10 years now! As a Certified Professional Birth Doula I work closely with expecting folks through pregnancy to ensure that you are educated and informed about birth as well as supported and prepared to start this exciting new chapter. I provide emotional support, education and resources all through the prenatal period to you and your partner, where applicable. I continue to offer that reassurance and perspective as well as physical support, coping techniques, help with relaxation, massage and suggestions for positions the length of your labor and delivery. I can also help facilitate communication and what questions to ask your medical care team, nurse, Midwife or OBGyn, to ensure you have all the information you need to make informed decisions before and during your birth and have support advocating for your wishes. I’d be honored to help you build trust in your body and the birth process, choose a provider and birth location that will support the birth plan that you desire and help facilitate having a really meaningful birth experience. I can't wait to connect!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Hunter Moore at The Mindful Birth! She has been by my side for three pregnancies and deliveries, and I truly can’t imagine going through any of them without her. Because of Hunter’s incredible support, knowledge, and encouragement, I was able to have all three births unmedicated—each with its own unique challenges and victories. Through every contraction, every moment of doubt, she was right there in the middle of it all, offering comfort, wisdom, and endless practical tips and tricks that made a world of difference. Hunter is steady, compassionate, and strong in all the right ways. She has a gift for reading the room, knowing exactly when to step in and when to simply hold space. She’s been a true anchor during the hardest parts of labor and a joyful presence in the best moments. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone—whether it’s your first baby or your fifth. Hunter is an amazing doula and a truly special person.

Jesse Waller

Accepts insurance

As a full spectrum doula, integrative lactation and feeding specialist, and licensed massage therapist, I have a passion for supporting all genders, bodies, and family structures through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My personal birthing experiences include a planned home birth, turned hospital induction, turned cesarean, followed by a home birth VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean.) I have supported births ranging from unmedicated to planned cesareans, and would love to help you achieve the birth that is best for you. I especially value the opportunity to work with queer and trans people, neurodivergent families, and people preparing for births after cesareans. I stay up to date on recommended vaccines to maintain the safety of the populations I work with.

I was so thankful to have Jesse as our postpartum doula. They always showed kind, loving care when taking care of our baby; I knew he was in safe, expert hands whenever she was with him. I deeply appreciated their knowledge and guidance, especially the way they pointed out key development markers that gave us much-needed confidence. What makes Jesse truly special is the way she cares for the whole family. While my birth didn’t go as planned, they served as a vital sounding board—commiserating and encouraging me exactly when I needed it most. She has a rare ability to intuit what needs to be done without being asked, whether they were bringing incredible baked goods or jumping in with meal prep and cooking. Jesse is a professional who brings both evidence-based expertise and a warm, grounding presence. I will always treasure the time we had with them, and if we have more children, she will be the first person we invite back into our home.
