Hi, I’ve been an overnight postpartum doula for 4 years and a birth doula for one year. I’m a mother of two and a grandmother to two grandson. I believe parents need support within the first few weeks after coming home with the new addition. Sleep deprivation is real and there might be older siblings that need you, so getting the proper attention of sleep is important . I am there to help you with whatever you need to make your life and your family’s life manageable. I will care for your baby overnight ( feeding, changing, burping, rocking etc)while you get the sleep you deserve. I’ll tidy up your kitchen and wash, dry and fold a load(s)of baby laundry that you might have. If your family has laundry I will be more than willing to wash their laundry as well. If you are breast feeding or bottle feeding I am here to help and support you in any way I can.

As a dedicated Newborn Care Specialist with over 30 years of hands-on experience, I bring deep knowledge, compassion, and calm expertise to families during the earliest and most tender stage of life. My career began as a nanny in 1994, but I quickly found my calling in newborn care, supporting families through the fourth trimester with an emphasis on sleep shaping, feeding guidance, and emotional reassurance. I’ve worked extensively with singletons, twins, and high-order multiples, including newborn quadruplets, and pride myself on creating customized, evidence-based support that adapts to each family’s needs and values. My goal is always to ease the transition into parenthood with a steady hand, a warm heart, and deep respect for each family’s rhythm. I’m passionate about continuing education and remain current on best practices in infant care, sleep science, lactation support, and postpartum recovery. Families who work with me describe feeling truly seen and supported, often telling me I bring both professionalism and magic into their home. Whether I’m offering overnight newborn care, helping establish healthy sleep habits, or empowering new parents with gentle education and reassurance, I show up with empathy, precision, and a deep commitment to nurturing the beginning of a new life story.

My name is Anya Lawrence. I am a Doula in Training located in Rocky Mount, NC. Different birth practices are becoming more welcome within our community here, I want to be apart of normalizing healthy birth practices as well. My inspiration stems from my own birthing journey and also my hypnobirthing teacher. I am getting my certification with New Beginnings Doula Training online. I would love to help women feel empowered to be knowledgeable about every choice that they are making with their body, labor, and birth. I believe that birth does not have to be scary as reflected on tv, worrisome as reflected by many bad experiences we may hear from others, or deadly as the statistic rates prove. We can work together to change all of these negative aspects.

Hello my name is Arlena Spruill also know as the Sapphire Doula. I am a DONA International Birth Doula. I believe that providing doula services to expecting families is not a want but a necessity. I have been a doula for a year and a half and have serviced 15 families. I hope to service many more and hope to grow awareness and acceptance of doulas in all birth spaces. I am mother of 2 beautiful children both were vaginal births. One was an encaul birth that my husband had the honor of catching her with the midwife's assistance which was so beautiful. Because of my two births and having my late mother present at all of them providing what I didn't know at the time was Doula support. I decided that I needed to do the same for other mothers and that began my journey to becoming a doula.

I'm Kathleen. I am passionate about all things pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My desire is to be and help create "a village" of support for new moms. Sometimes this is physically helping out families in the home, or it may also be taking your call to answer one of the thousands of questions that you have in the first few weeks. And the moments I want to be there for the most are the ones you think aren't important enough to share or you think it's just you. As your doula, It is my desire that you feel fully empowered and supported in your own personal postpartum journey. Free from judgement or pressure.

Hannah is absolutely wonderful. She has a nurturing character and loves to go above and beyond what is expected of her. She loves children very much and has been a great support to her parents as the eldest sibling of 6. She is a hard worker and dedicated to whatever task is laid before her. She also loves to cook (and is really good at it) and bake all manner of sour dough items. She is quick and efficient. She is a respectful young lady who strives to do her best in all she sets her hands to.

Hello and welcome! My name is Monica, and I’m honored to walk alongside you during one of the most sacred transitions of your life—bringing new life into the world and nurturing your healing journey. I’ve been a Postpartum Doula for 5 years, serving families with compassion, respect, and a deep understanding of the emotional and physical shifts that come after childbirth. I bring to this work the strength of 15 years as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), which has taught me the value of attentive care, advocacy, and the power of simply being present. As a Certified Childbirth Educator for 9 months, I’m passionate about preparing families for what’s ahead, providing evidence-based knowledge with a nurturing spirit. I believe in helping you trust your body, your instincts, and your voice. My journey also includes 10 years as a Womb Care & Yoni Steam Practitioner, where I guide women in holistic feminine healing, supporting the womb space with traditional care, herbs, and intentional rest. This blends beautifully with my studies and support in Perineal care, making sure postpartum healing is gentle, informed, and honored. I’ve also worked as a professional hairstylist for 11 years, which gives me a unique way of nurturing women from the outside in—because how we feel in our skin and hair matters to our spirit. My philosophy is simple: I believe postpartum care is sacred. It’s not just about diaper changes or swaddles—though I do those too. It’s about creating a peaceful space for you to rest, recover, bond, and bloom. I honor every mother’s story, every baby’s rhythm, and every family’s values. I believe that healing is both physical and emotional, and I walk with you in love, dignity, and strength. With me, you’ll get skilled hands, a calm presence, and a heart full of grace. Whether it’s Yoni steaming for recovery, Perineal care for comfort, or a nourishing meal and a kind word—I’m here for you. You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s do this together—with intention, care, and confidence.

Hi! My name is Heather Carreon. I am a Registered Nurse and IBCLC. I have over 10 years experience with postpartum mothers and infants. I live in Clayton, NC with my husband 3 children. Although I had knowledge as a lactation consultant and postpartum nurse, my personal breastfeeding experience as a new mother was definitely an educational process. I struggled in various ways with my own infants and sought help from colleagues. My personal journey has given me a new and relatable perspective about the breastfeeding challenges mothers face. Without tailored guidance in the early weeks, breastfeeding can be very frustrating. My aim is to provide you with compassionate support and education to help families reach their breastfeeding goals.

Heather did an amazing job helping to diagnosis my babies tongue ties and showed me techniques on how to improve latching and as well as new feeding positions. She came right to our house. Overall a wonderful experience!

Hello, I am Lola Price and I am a Certified Postpartum Doula, with a specialty in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). I am passionate about serving my community as I understand the transition from Pregnancy to Parenthood can be a major adjustment. Sometimes it’s comforting to New Parents just knowing that the total weight of “what to do” doesn’t have to always, totally be on their shoulders. I believe every day moms deserve and should have a helping hand, a comforting support, and wise reassurance. All while finding strength in knowing someone has their back. With Love, Lola was "birthed" to do just that! With Love, Lola offers a range of care services tailored to mothers & their newborns in preparation for and during the postpartum period. These efforts are accomplished through providing education, support, & promoting self-care by "Doing all things with LOVE."

I received my doula certifications through the Madriella doula network in 2022. I'd be honored to have the opportunity to get to know you and hear about your birth goals and desires.

I love the services that I have purchased from Karen and working with her to meet my goals for my birth. She has made me feel secure and confident in the decisions I have made in my birth plan and the decisions I have made for my child. She made the journey into motherhood a lot easier and will be forever grateful.
