How Much Does a Birth or Postpartum Doula Cost in Severn, MD?

Hi mom to be’s!! I’m Danielle and I am a State Certified Birth Doula and Community Health Worker in the NOVA (Northern Virginia) area. I have been in the healthcare field since I completed my Bachelor of Science at Marymount University where I studied Health Promotion and minored in Public Health. I was concerned during the pandemic about the alarming rates at which black women and women of color were passing away at a time that is supposed to be joyous. With not having kids of my own yet, I would like to put out the good I’d like to receive when my time comes. Educating moms and their partners with welcoming their children and feeling confident to not feel pressured to do anything other than what’s on the birth plan. Knowledge is power and I would love to support you in feeling even stronger before, during, and after your birth.

I am a pro-life doula and childbirth educator (including SpBCPE, BRM pro). I am passionate about walking alongside women and their partners with individualized support, encouragement, and evidence-informed care that honors the body’s God-given ability to birth. I spent years in the healthcare setting compassionately caring for others before making the switch to support women in this most special time in their lives. I hold a deep concern for the disturbing ethical changes our American healthcare system and seek to make a difference. I believe every life is sacred—and every mother deserves gentle, informed, and respectful care. I specialize in: *Doula care rooted in compassion and medical truths *Perinatal Parent Advocacy *Clients/partners who are Neurodiverse *Empowered individualized education for physiologic (natural) birth including peri-natal activities and positioning for pregnancy/birth *Partner-inclusive support, education and advocacy skills *Informed decisions, birth plans and birth rehearsal *Lactation counseling, flange fitting *Placental Encapsulation *Care of special needs babies, NICU informed doula

Hi, I’m Meggie. My desire to become a doula began with my own birth experience. After an uncommunicative, uninformed, and frightening first delivery, I knew that if I was going to grow my family, my next birth needed to be completely different. I dove into educating and advocating for myself, and learned all about comfort measures. I carried those lessons into my second delivery. During that birth, I felt empowered and confident. I knew then that I wanted to help as many mothers as possible feel informed, empowered, and supported through pregnancy and beyond. With 15 years of experience in the medical field on both clinical and management side, I bring understanding, compassionate , continuous care to every family I work with helping them feel informed and confident in their choices. I am a wife and mom to two young spunky girls and 2 cats. When I am not doing birth work I love spending time outdoors whether its going to the beach to skiing down the mountain. My other passions include traveling, reading, crafting, and antiquing. I can not wait to help you feel prepared, supported and confident through pregnancy, delivery and postpartum

Hi my name is Nikkita and I am a labor doula and placenta encapsulation specialist based in DE.

I love adding a little bit of laughter and a lot of love to every labor and delivery room I enter.

Hi, my name is Iyonna and I’m a postpartum doula based in the DMV area. My philosophy is that mothers deserve to be nurtured, supported, and cared for during the fourth trimester. I believe the postpartum period is a time for healing, rest, and adjustment, and no mother should feel like she has to navigate it alone. I support families by helping them prepare for postpartum, adjust to life with a newborn, and feel emotionally supported during the early weeks after birth. My approach focuses on creating a calm and nurturing environment through practical support, gentle guidance, and encouragement so mothers can rest, heal, and build confidence in this new season of motherhood.

It has been an incredible privilege to work with new families, helping them ensure a positive start and reach their full potential as a family unit. As your postpartum doula, I will be your reliable companion, guiding you through this transformative journey. Together, we will identify your child’s needs and learn effective ways to care for your new baby and yourself. Before becoming a doula, I dedicated 17 years of my life to teaching early childhood. During this time, I managed a classroom of infants and toddlers, balancing my care for the infants with curriculum development for preschool-aged children. I had the privilege of meeting and working with many young families navigating this new phase of life, which fueled my passion for providing more direct support to these new families. I am honored to bring my extensive experience to the families I now serve as a doula. I consider myself a mentor to these new parents, empowering them to find the tools and techniques to make their first days and weeks with their new baby as comfortable as possible. Additionally, I am trained in infant soothing and calming techniques, and I hold CPR and First Aid Certification, ensuring that I can provide the best possible care for infants under my care. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to assist you in having the best possible start as a new family.
