Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Southaven, MS

My background has always centered on caring for people. I spent about ten years working in surgical environments where precision and compassion were critical, and later led global customer support teams in the biotech industry before working in pharmaceutical compliance. Across each role, my focus was the same: making sure people felt heard and supported. Motherhood deepened that perspective. I saw firsthand how demanding pregnancy and postpartum can be, and how often mothers are expected to carry everything without support. That realization inspired me to create BellyCare Co., a maternal support service focused on helping pregnant and postpartum mothers reset through practical assistance, such as light home support, meal preparation, and postpartum presence. At its heart, BellyCare Co is about recognizing that when mothers are supported, families are stronger.

Hi, I’m Estefany — a trained doula, medical assistant, physician trained in Obstetrics and Gynecology for 3 years in Venezuela, and nursing student passionate about supporting women and families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My journey into birth work comes from both professional experience and personal understanding. After moving to the United States 10 years ago, I continued serving families in healthcare while following my passion for maternal care. I also became a NICU mom after delivering my daughter prematurely at 29 weeks due to severe preeclampsia, an experience that deeply shaped the way I support and advocate for mothers today. As I continue my education, my long-term goal is to become a midwife and continue empowering women through compassionate, evidence-based, and culturally sensitive care. I believe every family deserves support during one of the most important seasons of their lives. My goal is to help mothers feel informed, supported, empowered, and never alone throughout their journey. I proudly support both English- and Spanish-speaking families.

Hi, I’m England, founder of Womb + Root Wellness. 🌿 I’m a mother of three, full spectrum doula, lactation consultant, herbalist, and Reiki Master. My journey into birth work started long before I became a mother. I found myself naturally supporting and advocating for other mothers, while also navigating my own reproductive health journey. For years, I struggled with endometriosis without a diagnosis. As a Black woman, I experienced firsthand what it feels like to have your pain dismissed, your health overlooked, and your voice unheard within the healthcare system. I also watched the women closest to me including my mother and sister experience traumatic births and a lack of the care, information, and respect for autonomy they deserved. When I became pregnant and had my own children, I became my own doula. I learned how powerful it is to understand your body, know your rights, trust your intuition, and have someone in your corner. Those experiences became my purpose. I created Womb + Root Wellness to be part of the change—especially within Black and Brown birthing communities. My work is rooted in education, advocacy, holistic care, nourishment, and empowerment, helping mothers feel informed, respected, supported, and heard throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond. Your body. Your birth. Your voice. Your autonomy. 🤎🌿

I want the families I work with to feel comfortable, heard, and supported without judgment. Whether Mom needs a moment to shower, catch up on sleep, talk through how she’s feeling, or simply have an extra set of hands with the baby, I’m there. My goal is to make those early days a little easier while giving parents the confidence and reassurance they need to find their own rhythm

I believe every parent deserves compassionate, respectful, and individualized care throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. My passion for doula work began long before I earned my certification. Supporting my sister throughout her pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum recovery, as well as caring for friends during their pregnancies and helping with newborn care, showed me the incredible impact that consistent support can have on growing families.

I am known for my warm, bubbly personality and my ability to help people feel seen, heard, and cared for. I strive to create a calm, judgment-free environment where families feel confident, informed, and empowered to make the best decisions for themselves and their babies.

I am honored to walk alongside parents as they welcome their newest family member and look forward to making a meaningful difference in their birth and postpartum experience.

Hello, my name is Reneishia McDowell I am a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant, Doula, and Child Birth Educator. I am a Spiritual Doula based in Memphis, TN. I provide the following services of Emotional, Physical, and Mental support during, before, and/or after birth. On my journey in the medical field, I've always wanted to deliver babies and "be the first person a baby sees when they enter the world." After having my own personal experience of a natural birth, I felt that the next time it would be in the comfort of my own home or birthing center. My birth was by far the most beautiful experience. Although, I delivered in a hospital, having a natural birth made me feel superior, strong, and confident. I want to make a difference with women that would love to have a natural water birth their way. Here at Empathetic Hands LLC, you the client is in charge of how you would want your pregnancy to be.

I’m a birth and postpartum doula with a background in psychology, counseling, and breath-centered yoga—and I believe in the power women have to birth our babies.

I’m also fluent in German! I care deeply about maternal mental health and the well-being of the entire family.

I have a passion for community assistance ever since I have knowledge. I remember as a little girl helped the elders after school at only 9 years old. As years passed me passion for helping our community grew stronger. So I began my journey in the medical field as a RMA in the OB GYN specialty. I still felt that I can do more for my community and one day in bible study a lady I met called herself a Doula and I asked what is a doula and once she explained to me what a Doula is I immediately looked into it and it was an instant match for me. I was already working with moms and babies but being even more close to my clients and the community was an extraordinary feeling of accomplishment. I got certify as a Doula Business Owner, Lactation consultant, Birth Doula, Holistic nutrition, placenta encapsulation specialist all to be an all in one package for my clients. I strongly believe that it lessens the stress when a doula can carry multiple specialties needed to avoid referring and the client to be seeing multiple appointments in a day. I strongly believed that aliviaron the amount of appointments and be less overwhelming for the clients. I look forward to being your birth doula.
