I am a birth and postpartum doula, NICU mom, and a military wife, whose passion for this work was shaped by my own early motherhood experience. I had my first baby halfway across the country during COVID, farm from family and community. That season taught me how powerful it is to feel truly supported, and it became the foundation for the way I show up for other families. I have had the honor of supporting friends and families through both home births and hospital births, and I love walking alongside parents through the many different paths birth birth can take, with a professional foundation in Kinesiology, I understand deeply how the body functions in pregnancy and birth, and how movement and positioning support physiological labor and how to help reduce strain and injury during this transformative process. I blend evidence based education with holistic, intuitive care to offer support that is both grounded and nurturing. At the heart of my work is a simple intention. I show up for mothers the way I would want someone to show up for my daughter one day. With warmth, compassion, and a steady presence, my hope is that every family I support feels seen, held, and never alone as they step into parenthood.

Highly recommend hiring Courtney as your doula. Our doula we initially hired had an emergency so we ended up having Courtney as our backup doula and she did not disappoint! We were a little nervous having a backup doula and somebody we’ve never met but Courtney was so personable, very easy going and very much was prepared for our birth plan and things we discussed with our doula prior to going into labor. Courtney was very encouraging, supportive and really helped my husband and I during such an intense and vulnerable experience. Thank you Courtney for what you do! It’s very clear that she loves what she does and it translates into working with her clients.

Hello and welcome! I’m Sasha Sumling, a licensed massage therapist of 14 years, certified birth and postpartum doula, infant massage instructor, and Evidence Based Birth® Instructor. I’m deeply passionate about supporting mothers through every stage of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum with a hands-on, heart-centered approach. My journey as a massage therapist began with the belief that touch is powerful and deeply healing. It was a natural step for me to become a doula, where I could bring that same healing presence into the birthing space—offering not only physical relief but emotional and spiritual support when it matters most. I bring to every birth: • Therapeutic, intuitive touch • A calm and reassuring voice • A warm, relatable presence • A sense of humor that puts you at ease • And a deep commitment to advocacy and education My mission is to be a steady and empowering presence for women—especially those navigating high-risk pregnancies, stress, anxiety, or difficult life circumstances. I believe in creating sacred, safe spaces where mothers feel seen, supported, and confident as they bring life into the world. As your doula, I’ll walk alongside you, offering evidence-based information, compassionate care, and unwavering support before, during, and after birth. If you’re seeking a grounded, loving, and experienced doula who blends skill with soul—I’d be honored to support you. Let’s connect and talk more about your birth wishes. I’d love to walk this journey with you.

Greetings, Everyone! My name is Teneka, and I am a certified full spectrum doula with a focus on postpartum support, newborn care specialist, and certified CPR and BLS instructor. I currently support families in Cypress, Katy, Fulshear, Jersey Village, The Heights, and Midtown areas of the Houston metropolitan area. As a mother of three adult sons with over 25 years of experience in the healthcare industry, I have dedicated my life to supporting others through some of life’s most profound transitions. My personal birthing experiences, each resulting in C-sections, included life-threatening complications during my last delivery and the postpartum period. These challenges ignited a passion within me to be the eyes, ears, hands, and voice for anyone undergoing significant life changes, like welcoming new life to the Earthside. My approach is grounded in respect for your choices, reverence for the recovery process, and a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of childbirth and postpartum recovery. I strive to create a safe, nurturing space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to make informed decisions that align with your values and preferences. As your partner in these sacred journeys, I am committed to providing holistic services that honor your individual needs, respect your culture and values, and support your transition into a new phase of life. Together, let’s create beautiful beginnings and cherish every moment as you welcome new life and embrace your new self.

Exceptional Postpartum Support – A True Blessing to this first time mummy. I cannot express enough gratitude for Teneka and the incredible support she provided during my postpartum recovery. As someone who had stitches, her care and assistance made my healing process so much easier. She was always attentive to my comfort and well-being, ensuring I had the time and space to rest while also supporting me in caring for my newborn. One of the things I truly appreciated was how proactive she was—she never waited to be asked. She would top up baby and mum supplies without hesitation, making sure I always had everything I needed. She also made sure I ate properly and stayed hydrated, knowing how important it was for my recovery and milk supply. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail made such a difference during this critical time. Her warmth, knowledge, and kindness created a stress-free and nurturing environment, and I felt so supported every step of the way. I highly recommend Teneka to any new parent—she is truly a gem, and I’m beyond grateful for her care!

Having Zaira as my doula was amazing. She came to my home when I was having prodromal labor and helped me do exercises that got me into actual labor that same night. She stayed by my side the whole time at the birthing center and looked out for my husband like I requested when she saw he was in shock after our baby was born. When I felt like I couldn't do it anymore she reassured me that we where almost at the finish line and talked me through to the end.

Recent review

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Lavi. I reached out to her because my wife was very overwhelmed and I was about to return back to work. She came in our household and really helped my wife find peace. She helped our baby fall asleep on a schedule (which she is still on), she always made sure my wife had something to eat, every time I came home from work my wife was very relaxed and I learned a lot about how I can help. I think she made a huge difference in our lives and I’m very glad that she was able to support us.

HE ID BEYOND AMAZING!! Even the hospital Staff were surprised by his knowledge and said they wish more duals were like him! I love how we met once a month to talk about how I was doing and even visited me at home after I gave birth. When he says he is in it for the long haul he means it! I was induced on the 18th and did not have my son till the 20th he stayed with me the whole time!

Brianna helped me with light chores around the house and emotional support as I navigated the complexities of having a baby in the NICU. She is very knowledgeable, compassionate, and willing to work with you to make the most of your time working together.

Howdy! My name is Aniya, and I am a certified faith-based birth and postpartum doula! From a young age, I felt called to support families in birth, initially dreaming of becoming a labor and delivery nurse—until a home birth video shifted everything, revealing that my true path was midwifery. Rooted in my Christian faith, I began pursuing doula certification and seeking mentorship, knowing this work was both a calling and a ministry. I’m dedicated to assisting mothers and their families through the transformative experience of childbirth. I emphasize and provide emotional, physical, and informational support to ensure a positive birthing experience. My mission is to empower mothers, promote informed decision-making, and cultivate a nurturing environment that respects individual choices and preferences. Please reach out with any questions! I look forward to connecting! Aniya! (409)474-2244 communioncare@gmail.com

We are so grateful for Aniya and the care she provided our family as an overnight postpartum doula. From the very first day, she brought a calming and peaceful presence into our home, and I immediately knew we had made the right choice. She always arrived at least five minutes early, followed everything exactly how I asked, and was incredibly helpful with every question we had. Having her support made this postpartum experience so much better, as we were able to truly rest at night knowing our baby was in such caring and capable hands. We would highly recommend Aniya as an overnight postpartum doula to any family looking for compassionate, reliable, and exceptional care.

Highly Recommend Thalia – An Amazing Birth Doula! I had the absolute privilege of having Thalia as my birth doula, and I cannot recommend her enough! Despite being based in Houston, TX, she traveled all the way to Los Angeles to support me during my birth, and her presence made all the difference. From our very first consultation, I knew I was in good hands. Thalia was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive to my needs, both emotionally and physically. She took the time to understand my birth preferences and offered valuable support and guidance every step of the way. On the big day, she was a calm and reassuring presence, providing me with comfort, strength, and encouragement. Her support allowed me to have a positive and empowered birth experience. I truly believe that having Thalia by my side helped me achieve the birth I had hoped for. If you're looking for a professional, caring, and dedicated doula who goes above and beyond, look no further. I am forever grateful for her support and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive birth doula. Thank you again, Thalia! You made a huge impact on my birth experience, and I’ll always be thankful for you!

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do.
