Tiombe Bowman

About me

My name is Tiombe Bowman, and I’ve had the immense honor of supporting growing families as a birth and postpartum doula for over 15 years. I am a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula (CD/PCD, DONA) and Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) with a passion for nurturing, educating, and advocating for every family I serve. Over the years, I’ve supported over 200 births and walked alongside more than 200 families during their postpartum journeys. I’ve witnessed first-hand the transformative power of continuous, compassionate support—and how a doula’s presence can positively impact birth outcomes and emotional well-being. Whether you’re planning a hospital, home, or birth center birth, I’m here to support your vision—fully, joyfully, and without judgment.
