Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Swedesboro, NJ

Peace and blessings! My name is Xiomara, I am a mother of a beautiful girl. I am from the very small town of Pemberton, located in Southern New Jersey. I take pride and I am inspired by my (Afro Caribbean-Latina) Panamanian roots and culture. I believe in holistic and wholistic healing and practices, and the balance between the two. I am 2x certified full spectrum doula, (through Doula Trainings International and the state of NJ via NJMIHIA), Reiki Master, and Placenta Specialist. I became a doula because of my own birthing experience, which led me to my passion for birth-work. Helping families by educating, advocating, and providing a safe space for a meaningful and purposeful birth. No birth is the same, no pregnancy is the same.

Our mission at The Purple Purpose LLC is to inspire our clients to become the highest most confident versions of themselves, while embracing their journey, from the beginning until the end. We aim to bring forth a new way to assist families in maintaining their health and wellness, before, during, and after birth.

Hi, I’m Kellie, a birth doula, pediatric nurse, women’s health herbalist, and the heart behind The Nourished Mother. I bring over a decade of nursing experience into the birth space, along with a deep reverence for the physiology of a woman’s body. My approach blends evidence-based care with herbal wisdom, breathwork, and somatic practices that help women soften, trust, and embody their power during pregnancy and birth. I believe birth preparation is not just about learning positions or writing a birth plan. It is about reconnecting to your body. It is about learning how your breath can soften your pelvic floor. It is about helping your partner feel confident holding you through intensity. It is about cultivating safety in your nervous system so your body can open. During our time together, we will prepare not only for labor, but for postpartum. We will discuss hormonal shifts, recovery, nourishment, support systems, and the emotional transformation into motherhood. I often incorporate herbal teas, grounding rituals, breathwork, and practical postpartum planning into our prenatal sessions. As both a nurse and a doula, I am comfortable navigating conversations with medical providers while also protecting the sacredness of your experience. I am a calm, steady presence who listens deeply and advocates clearly. My hope is that you feel informed, supported, and deeply connected to your body as you step into birth and motherhood. You deserve to feel nourished in every phase ❤️

Meet Marla, a dedicated birth doula whose practice blends compassionate, hands-on labor support with the power of hypnosis. With years of experience guiding families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, Marla offers more than physical comfort measures—she brings a toolkit of relaxation and hypnosis techniques designed to help you feel calm, capable, and in control throughout your birth experience. Hypnosis for birth works by helping you shift out of fear and tension and into a state of deep relaxation, where your body can labor more naturally and efficiently. The benefits are well documented: Reduced perceived pain — Deep relaxation lowers the body's stress response, which can ease the intensity of contractions. Shorter, smoother labors — When fear and tension decrease, labor often progresses more efficiently because the body isn't working against itself. Less need for medical pain intervention — Many who practice hypnosis techniques report needing fewer interventions like epidurals or pain medication. Greater sense of calm and control — Guided visualization and positive suggestion help you stay present and confident rather than overwhelmed. Faster postpartum recovery — Lower stress hormones during labor are linked to a smoother transition into postpartum healing and bonding. With Marla by your side, you'll learn self-hypnosis and relaxation techniques well before your due date, so that by the time labor begins, your mind and body already know how to work together. Her goal is simple: to help you feel supported, empowered, and deeply at peace as you welcome your baby into the world.

Hi my name is Nikkita and I am a labor doula and placenta encapsulation specialist based in DE. I've always had a love and awe for the miracle of conception, labor, and childbirth even before having kids of my own. Reflecting on my three different birthing experiences catapulted my desire to support and empower expecting mothers before during and after their labor. I love adding a little bit of laughter and a lot of love to every labor and delivery room I enter. I attributes the life I've been blessed to live as a wife and mother and the calling to be a doula to my Christian faith and the peace that comes with it. My personal goal is to support every momma I have the pleasure of serving with my whole heart, so that the momma can have a birthing experience that makes her proud!

My journey into birth work began eight years ago after the birth of my son and deepened through my experience as a gestational surrogate and, most recently, the birth of my daughter this past summer. Those journeys which were both beautiful and challenging, showed me the power of feeling seen and supported. My own doula’s care really inspired me to offer that same gift to others. I hold a Master’s in Counseling, am a National Certified Counselor, and am a Certified Doula through New Beginnings Doula Training. I’m currently pursuing my Licensed Professional Counselor credential and Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C). I also serve as a Specialized Support Coordinator for Postpartum Support International for birth trauma, where I connect families to resources for the postpartum journey including perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and birth trauma. To me, birth is a mind, body, and spiritual experience. My approach blends compassion, trauma-informed care, advocacy, and holistic practices to help you feel empowered and heard.
