Hi! I’m Megan, a birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator serving families throughout the Metro East area. I believe families deserve support that is calm, respectful, evidence-based, and centered on their own choices. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to help you feel informed, supported, and confident as you navigate pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I offer birth doula support, postpartum doula care, and childbirth education, and I especially love helping families feel more prepared and less overwhelmed by all the information that comes with welcoming a baby. I’m certified through DONA, Prodoula, Best, and Lamaze, and I’m committed to continuing my education so I can provide thoughtful, compassionate support to every family I work with. If you’re looking for someone who will listen, explain your options, support your partner, and be a steady presence along the way, I’d love to connect.

I believe anyone can have a positive birth experience when you feel empowered. When you make your own decisions over your body, the more positive the outlook will feel. You deserve support and care that aligns with your goals and considers your needs and desires to yours and your baby’s greatest wellbeing.

I support your right to make conscious choices, providing ongoing education, and work with you to plan your individual preferences in a nonjudgmental and loving way.

Hello my name is Doula Asia . I like to consider myself as a DOULAPRENEUR I am the owner of Doula Love, Light, & Life LLC. I am a Mom, Community Health Worker and Maternal Health Advocate. I became a full spectrum doula in 2020 because I want all birthing people to know they have options and a voice that can and will be heard when it comes to their body and baby. I want to help you know what questions to ask your provider, to know how to advocate for yourself, and to know there is someone in your corner to support you through pregnancy/birth/and postpartum journey. Motherhood is a beautiful thing but there is no manual on how we should be a mother but if you have the right support team it will be one of our greatest moments.

Hi! I'm Natasha, a mother of 2 daughters and a birth doula serving the St. Louis, Missouri area and the Metro East area in Southern Illinois since 2021. I like to have a holistic approach to the pregnancy and birth experience. I like to focus on nutrition and positioning techniques during pregnancy to help minimize end-of-pregnancy concerns and labor challenges. I started my doula journey shortly after my first born because I wanted to help other families to know that they do have a voice that matters. Having a cesarean myself, then a HBAC, I have a unique perspective on the difference of each of those experiences. I learned the importance of having the proper support, the right to informed choice and the resources to have a positive pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. That is what I hope I can provide to my community.

I am a God-fearing doula and certified Hypnobabies instructor with a deep passion for supporting women in birth. My own journey through infertility revealed the beauty and strength of the birthing process, inspiring me to dedicate my work to empowering mothers to experience birth with confidence, peace, and informed choice.

Hi all I am Britni! I first started into doula work after the birth of my first child. After a positive and empowering experience where I learned a lot, especially self advocacy, I started helping friends and family educate themselves and advocate for their desires. After officially venturing into doula work, my goal has always been to support and educate families about what their options actually are so that they step into their birth experience knowledgeable and empowered. I also strongly believe that supporting the body leads to better birth so I also love connecting families with other professionals in the area that can support them in that way. When I am not at a birth or supporting a family I am either teaching a Newborn Care class or a Cloth diapering class. In all my extra free time I am either homeschooling, gardening, cooking, or curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee or tea.

My name is Steffanie Thomas and I have been a doula since 2015. I love serving expecting families in whatever birth they believe to be healthiest for them. My passion is to help families understand ALL of their options available to them. And to help create a calm birth space so that birth can happen as it needs to. I understand the innate wisdom that women carry & encourage them to follow their intuition.

Hello, I'm LaCrisha, but most people call me Crisha. I was born and raised in St. Louis, and I’m proud to call it my hometown. I’m blessed with a wonderful, supportive husband, five amazing kids, and a few adorable grandchildren. My happiest moments are spent with my family—whether we’re going out to eat, enjoying a good movie together, or dancing the night away. For many years, I found myself in labor and delivery rooms, supporting family members, friends, and even friends of friends. Sometimes, people assumed I was there to translate, but most of the time, I was simply there to help and offer comfort. It became such a natural role for me that people began asking how long I’d been a nurse. Though I’m not a nurse, I realized how much I love helping others during such a monumental time in their lives. Now, as a Certified Doula, I feel incredibly grateful and honored to be part of these intimate and life-changing moments. Meeting new moms-to-be feels like gaining instant family, and I cherish the opportunity to support them as they step into this exciting new chapter of their lives. To me, every birth represents a new beginning—a fresh start filled with love, hope, and endless possibilities. Call me at 314-375-6557 I am a provider of MO Health Net
