I am a birth , postpartum doula, and a newborn care specialist. I have been a Doula for 3 years, with over 10 years as a childcare provider. I pride my self on giving my clients the best quality care that includes evidence based information. I am also VBAC certified and working on my PhD in Holistic Medicine. I provide nighttime care for babies also.
We had a wonderful experience with Felecia! She kept our premature twins for us at night for the first several weeks of their life to help us get some rest during the transition. She always showed up on time and loved our babies. We are so thankful for the help she provided our family during that time.

Hello! My name is Morgan Stewart. I am a trained birth and postpartum doula located in the West End, Richmond area. I provide calm and informed birth and postpartum care to families and believe there is always more to learn in this area. Prior to this, I worked in the public sector doing civil rights investigations for nearly 10 years. Every birth and postpartum is different and I believe in flexible, understanding care. This is a transformative and initiatory time and should be treated with utmost reverence for its foundational aspects. In my spare time I enjoy working out, writing, reading, gardening, and I love to cook for my twin sons and daughter.

Homeschool mother of 5, ages 3-23. I absolutely LOVE teaching and learning; which has led me here! I'm a birth and postpartum doula (I have a postpartum agency and I'm a doula trainer). I'm a lactation consultant and I teach childbirth education by way of HypnoBirthing. Basically, if pregnancy and families are involved it's right up my alley!!
I first hired Nytasha for her hypnobirthing education and she was so amazing I replaced my doula with her as well! The doula I originally had was so unprofessional and if it weren't for Nytasha, I wouldn't have had such the wonderful birthing experience I had! Till this day I use her wealth of knowledge, whether it be toddler activities, lactation consulting, homeschooling or any birthing needs! You won't regret hiring her ❤️

I'm a certified postpartum doula and certified breastfeeding specialist living in Richmond, VA. I've been doing this work for over 11 years, and I feel so honored to walk the early months of life with a new baby or babies alongside the families I serve. It's a beautiful, vulnerable time full of questions, joys, and concerns, and I love supporting families through all of it. I have extra training and expertise in supporting breastfeeding/chest feeding, since so many of parents' early concerns revolve around feeding, and there is not enough good lactation help available to most families. I work with first-time parents and those expecting their second, third, or more babies- everyone's needs are a bit different, but everyone can use extra hands and a listening ear during this time of transition. I would love to chat with you to get to know you and your family!
Erica was a tremendous help to our family! We welcomed our first child over the summer and had no idea what we were doing as first time parents. Erica helped us with the transition in so many ways. She went above and beyond our expectations and not only provided care for the baby and helped with housework, but frequently checked in on my recovery physically, mentally, and emotionally. Her knowledge about breastfeeding was invaluable--I know my breastfeeding success is largely due to her support and knowledge in those early days when I wasn't sure what I was doing. Securing her help before the baby arrived paid dividends in so many ways!

My name is Santrice and I am a DONA trained, faith based, Christian doula located in Henrico VA. My mission is to provide mothers with a positive, calming, stress-free experience. Because every birth is unique, I adapt to each individual, based on their needs. By focusing on relaxation, safety and pain management my goal is to keep intervention at a minimum but also provide reassurance for mom to do what's best for her and her baby. I have 16 years of experience as a nanny, as well as a background as a senior caregiver. Being able to show love, support, and companionship mentally, physically and emotionally has always been my passion. As a child, I wanted to become an ob-gyn but was not able to take that route due to unpredictable life circumstances. Now that I've overcome those obstacles, I am excited to be of service to moms and families across the world. As your doula, I look forward to being part of your pregnancy journey to create memories that will last a lifetime!
I am so incredibly grateful for having Santrice. From the very beginning she made me feel supported, heard, and truly cared for. She brought such a calm and reassuring energy into every moment. Santrice made such a difference in my birth experience and I’ll always be thankful for her.

I DO ACCEPT INSURANCE!! - Ask me for Clarity! I am a birth & postpartum doula, serving families of the Richmond, VA region. My passion is empowering women while assisting them in becoming the parents they’ve always knew they would be. I’ve been a doula part time for about 10 years & recently decided to take the plunge to invest in myself & become a licensed, certified DONA INT. Doula as of the end of 2022.
Jessica was our night nurse slash overnight postpartum doula for my family in the tuckahoe area for about 5 months, beginning the first night we were home from the hospital. We originally started with 5 nights of support the first week, than slowly went down to 3 nights a week for the remainder of our contract. She was amazing and so compassionate. She really focused on my recovery and really made me feel so much better about everything that has happened, and is happening. The first few weeks she also helped with laundry, the dishes, all the bottles & pumping parts, and my sweet puppy! I ended up getting mastitis, and Jessica gave me so many tips and suggestions to help treat it. I really was so very grateful for Jessica and all she has done for my family. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is having a baby or just had one! Thank you Jessica - You were a literal life saver!

Fredericksburg, Virginia
Hi, I’m Siedah Israel, a Certified Labor Doula, Holistic Wellness Practitioner, and Certified Herbalist based in Fredericksburg (Spotsylvania County), VA. I’m a wife of 15 years, homeschooling mother of five, and bonus mom to a 21-year-old. I began my wellness journey by earning a certificate in Massage Therapy from Eastern Virginia Career College in 2018, went on to complete my Doula Certification at Germanna Community College in 2024, and graduated with honors in Herbal Studies from the American College of Healthcare Sciences in 2025. I’m currently in Phase I of my PEP process on the road to becoming a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM). When I’m not supporting families, you’ll find me homeschooling, exploring outdoors with my children, writing poetry, working on my werewolf novel, or handcrafting natural hair and skincare products. It’s a blessing to walk alongside families with compassion, cultural care, and grounded support during such a sacred season of life.
I cannot recommend Siedah enough. I was TERRIFIED of delivering my baby. I have a lot of birth trauma, both from a traumatic vaginal delivery as well as a traumatic c section. But I wanted to try for a VBAC and take my power back, but my anxiety was holding me back. Siedah was my ROCK. Both during my pregnancy and during labor/delivery. She is full of knowledge, love, compassion. Never judged, always the best listener, and her check ins seriously brought me so much peace. When induction day came, I was terrified. As my contractions got intense, Siedah kept me focused and reminded me of my power. She never judged me when I lost focus and always brought me back to center and respected and supported my decisions. I truly don't think I would have gotten my VBAC without her. Especially with my 10lbs 2oz chunker! If you need a doula, you can’t top Siedah!

Hi, I’m Morgan, a birth doula with a deep passion for supporting women through the sacred and powerful journey of pregnancy and birth. Outside of birth work, you can often find me hiking, camping, traveling, walking my two corgis, reading, spending time with my husband and son, or serving my church and local community. My heart for women’s health began during my very first OB/GYN appointment as a teenager, when I had to navigate a complicated diagnosis and a series of confusing and often scary interactions with specialists. Years later, after facing complications during the birth of my son, my passion for informed care and patient advocacy only grew stronger. That experience not only taught me the importance of understanding my health and my options, but it also deepened my trust in the Lord. Through it all, my faith grew as I leaned into His strength during a season full of unknowns. Since then, I’ve become deeply committed to helping women feel informed, empowered, and supported throughout their reproductive journeys. My journey led me to work on a research team developing an intrauterine balloon stent to help treat Asherman’s Syndrome—a role that involved shadowing OB/GYNs and midwives and sparked a deeper appreciation for the science behind pregnancy and birth. I truly believe that birth is not only fascinating from a medical standpoint, but also incredibly beautiful and sacred. Today, I feel called to walk alongside women in their most vulnerable and transformative moments—offering education, advocacy, and unwavering support as they step into motherhood.
Morgan is a wonderful doula with a heart for her clients and a heart for the Lord! Having been through a difficult birth with her little guy, she is knowledgeable and helpful in navigating births of different scenarios.

Hello everyone, my name is Marissa Howard and I am a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula located in Hampton Roads, VA. I strongly believe that the birthing experience should be empowering and peaceful. I encourage clients to feel they have autonomy over their decisions during the birthing process. I provide evidence based information to support and educate my clients in prenatal and postpartum stage. I also promote advocacy skills so my clients can feel secure in their decisions throughout the process of pregnancy/birth/postpartum. In my free time, my husband and I keep busy with our 3 beautiful children.
We are so grateful for Marissa! I knew from the moment we met she was the doula for our family. Her calm presence and joyful spirit was just what we needed for our pregnancy journey. Our meetings were informative and fun, and we felt so prepared going into labor. Marissa was extremely supportive through the whole process- always checking in to see how we were doing. She was a rockstar through delivery and stayed with us through the night until our daughter was born. I felt confident between her and my husband that I would be taken care of when I was unable to adequately make decisions during labor. On top of that, our two postpartum visits were helpful and honestly just comforting! At the end of our time together, we were sad to say goodbye because Marissa is forever a part of our family!
