Samantha Greenleaf - Birth & Postpartum Doula

About Samantha

Hi mama, I’m Sam. I’m a pregnancy, labor, and postpartum doula—and a former labor & delivery nurse—so I’ve supported women through both the clinical and deeply personal sides of birth. I know how overwhelming this season can feel. The questions, the unknowns, the “am I doing this right?” thoughts that come up when you’re trying to make the best decisions for you and your baby. My role is to help you feel informed, grounded, and supported every step of the way—whether that means advocating for your preferences, helping you navigate the unexpected, or simply being a calm, steady presence when you need it most. This is your birth, your postpartum, your experience—and you deserve to feel confident and cared for through all of it. I’m here for you 🤍

Birth & Postpartum Doula packages and pricing

Pregnancy & Labor Support

This package is designed to help you feel prepared, supported, and never alone as you move through pregnancy and birth. Together, we’ll meet for three prenatal visits where we’ll build your birth plan, walk through different scenarios, and make sure you feel confident in your choices. When labor begins, I’ll be by your side offering continuous in-person support—using comfort techniques, positioning, and calm guidance to help you stay grounded and supported through each stage. I’m on-call for you starting at 37 weeks, so you have peace of mind knowing you’ll have consistent support when the time comes. After delivery, I remain with you for two hours to support your immediate recovery, help with baby’s first moments, and make sure you feel settled before I leave.

What to expect

I provide personalized, evidence-based support throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum—because each stage brings different needs for your body, mind, and family. During pregnancy, we’ll focus on education, preparation, and building your confidence so you feel informed and ready for what’s ahead. During labor, I offer continuous, calm support through comfort measures, positioning, movement, encouragement, and advocacy while working alongside your medical team. After birth, my support continues as you recover and adjust to life with your baby. I can help with newborn care, feeding support, maternal recovery, emotional support, light household tasks, and the everyday things that can feel overwhelming when you’re exhausted and healing. Whether you need hands-on help or simply someone experienced in your corner, I meet you where you are. As an RN and doula, my goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized support that helps you feel prepared, cared for, and confident throughout your entire transition into motherhood.

Samantha has been an incredible support throughout my postpartum journey. She made me feel truly supported, empowered, and heard during a very intense time in my life. This is my second pregnancy, and this experience has been completely different—in the best way—thanks to her. You can genuinely see Samantha’s passion in everything she does. She pays close attention to every detail, always ensuring my needs are met, and brings such a deep sense of empathy and care. I am beyond grateful for her support and highly recommend her to anyone needing compassionate postpartum care, birth planning or labor.

Words from one of our clients: “ One of the nights I was in the most pain in my labor Sam was with me. She felt like a best friend and helped me feel calm when I was feeling really nervous. She helped calm my nerves through the epidural and was my guide through everything!”
