I’m Shonna, owner of Growing and Graced, and I offer prenatal and postpartum support to families in the Hampton Roads area virtually by request. I specialize in Natural Births at home as well as in Hospitals. My passion for educating families on prenatal wellness, family planning, labor and delivery support, and postpartum healing stems from a seed God planted in me that he has watered and matured this seed. The result is Growing and Graced, and I am so grateful. I want to return our birth journey to the way the Father intended. Birth is a process of growth, surrender, and preparation, and with the proper support, you can have the successful pregnancy, labor, and birth you desire! Thank you for stopping by, and I would love to join your family as you embark on your season of transition!

I cannot say enough good things about Shonna!! This was my first experience with a doula and I highly recommend it for anyone having a child. From the first interaction during my second trimester, until our last interaction post delivery - she has been nothing short of amazing. Shonna was always calm, supportive, reassuring, and ALWAYS saw the positive side of things. She is an expert in this profession and has made my first time with a doula an unforgettable experience. If I decide to have another one, she will be my first choice. Thank you so much Shonna for everything you did to help with the arrival of our baby!!

We used Lacey for a few weeks after we had our baby. My wife was exhausted from giving birth and she just needed as much rest as possible at night. Lacey came in for 6 weeks 5 nights a week and took care of our sweet baby girl while we slept. She would change her, pass her to my wife to nurse when baby was hungry and would take her back and get her burped and back to sleep. She was amazing and never woke us up for anything. She even washed babies clothes and restocked supplies for the next day. We couldn’t have gotten through those first few weeks without Lacey . I highly recommend her for night nanny services. We will have her again if we have another. Thank you so much Lacey!

Greetings, families. My name is Ottavia Turner, and I am a full-spectrum birth and postpartum care doula and a traditional midwifery assistant. I support families throughout the entire pregnancy journey, including hands-on support during the labor and birth process, ensuring you feel informed, empowered, and advocated for every step of the way. My services range from birth advocacy, labor support, childbirth education, holistic health practices, postpartum and nanny care, yoga, singing bowl sessions, and homeschool education, and so much more. I became a birth worker after experiencing my own home birth ceremony with my son. It was a deeply magical and transformative experience—one that showed me the power of intentional, supported birth. From that moment on, I knew I was called to support like-minded families in creating a birth experience that aligns with their desires, honors their body, and becomes a memorable and sacred moment for a lifetime.

One year ago I had the most life changing experience. I had my dream Home birth experience thanks to Ottavia Turner. Ottavia spent months preparing me for natural birth. Yoga , meditation, breath work and natural birth education classes all the services she offered me. I felt prepared and confident enough to endure natural child birth. During birth I remembered everything we did during our sessions. Hours later my baby boy was born safely at home in our bath tub. I highly recommend her and the services she offers you won’t regret it.

I’m a Certified Doula and a Registered Nurse with a background in High Risk Obstetrics, Infertility and Women’s Health. I hold an BSN in Nursing and I became a certified Doula in 2023. I am a wife and a entrepreneur. While experiencing my own struggles with infertility, I have come to find that the experience of pregnancy and childbirth have always been important to me. As a nurse and community advocate, I have been disheartened by the maternal- fetal mortality and morbidity rates among minority women in the U.S. I want to combat these increasing rates by helping women achieve their utmost and most desirable birth experiences by provider birth planning, childbirth education, labor and postpartum support. Whether you are planning for a natural labor at home or a more medically assisted birth in a hospital, I am will be there to assist in the birth experience you deserve! My personal mission is to support and advocate for childbearing women of any age.

Wanda is amazing! I had my daughter in my late 30 thirties and experience many complications. I don't know how I would have made it without Wanda. The care she took in explaining things to, helping me reduce my stress, helping me to prepare for my daughters birth was a blessing. She continued this care well after I had my daughter. Wanda provided, additional breast feeding support and guidance. With Wanda you are with family. She cares about you and takes every steps necessary to endure a successful birth and mom after. What an amazing soul!!

We had the absolute best experience with Tory, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment she walked into our home, she brought an immediate sense of calm and confidence that we desperately needed. After just one visit, our entire household felt more settled. She didn’t just care for our newborn—she taught me how to care for him with new techniques, hands-on guidance, and so much patience. She showed me how to soothe him, how to read his cues, and how to manage those fussy moments that had felt overwhelming before. Her approach was gentle, practical, and incredibly reassuring. On top of that, both the baby and I were coming down with a cold, and she handled the situation with so much compassion. She showed me how to help a congested newborn, helped me feel more confident in what to watch for, and even let me get much-needed rest. I truly felt cared for as a new mom, not just supported in caring for my baby. If you are looking for someone who brings expertise, calm energy, and genuine care into your home, Tory is absolutely exceptional. One visit made such a meaningful difference for us, and I am so grateful for her. I am excited to work with her again and ensure that I’ve really taken her lessons to heart.

Hello everyone, my name is Marissa Howard and I am a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula located in Hampton Roads, VA. I strongly believe that the birthing experience should be empowering and peaceful. I encourage clients to feel they have autonomy over their decisions during the birthing process. I provide evidence based information to support and educate my clients in prenatal and postpartum stage. I also promote advocacy skills so my clients can feel secure in their decisions throughout the process of pregnancy/birth/postpartum. In my free time, my husband and I keep busy with our 3 beautiful children.

We are so grateful for Marissa! I knew from the moment we met she was the doula for our family. Her calm presence and joyful spirit was just what we needed for our pregnancy journey. Our meetings were informative and fun, and we felt so prepared going into labor. Marissa was extremely supportive through the whole process- always checking in to see how we were doing. She was a rockstar through delivery and stayed with us through the night until our daughter was born. I felt confident between her and my husband that I would be taken care of when I was unable to adequately make decisions during labor. On top of that, our two postpartum visits were helpful and honestly just comforting! At the end of our time together, we were sad to say goodbye because Marissa is forever a part of our family!
