About me

Hello, my name is Virgin Watters and everyone calls me "Virgie". I am a Birth Doula and Certified Lactation educator. I am also a Registered Nurse with a background in Public Health and child health/safety. I became a doula to help provide support and to advocate for women throughout the birthing/postpartum process. My goal as a doula is to provide a memorable birth experience for my clients by ensuring that their voices are heard and that they receive culturally sensitive care along their birth journey. I look forward to helping you develop a birth plan that meets your personalized needs.
