Hello! My name is Tierra Beaushaw. I am a Certified Labor Doula, Certified Infant Feeding specialist, and a certified prenatal yoga teacher.  After seven years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant in both hospitals and in-home care, I felt a deep calling toward Labor and Delivery nursing—especially after the birth of my first son. While pursuing my studies, I discovered the world of doula support and was inspired by the compassionate, hands-on role doulas play in the birthing experience. Following the birth of my second son, I made the empowering decision to shift paths and become a doula. Today, I combine my clinical background with empathy and intuition to guide families through one of life’s most transformative moments. My passion lies in helping mothers and babies feel safe, supported, and informed. No matter your birth plan or chosen delivery setting, I’ll be by your side—offering heartfelt care every step of the way.
