Hi I’m Jahlai! I am a Postpartum Nurse, a Certified Labor and Postpartum Doula. I offer Childbirth Education, Placenta Encapsulation, Breastmilk/Keepsake Jewelry, and Belly Binding. Helping Expecting families with their parenthood journey is my passion.

My name is Angie, I am a mother of two amazing boys, a surrogate mother, and a Christ-centered doula. To me being a doula is far from just a job. It is a ministry. My goal is to not only help my clients have wonderful birth experiences but to also shower them in love and support.

As Dominique— I live for mommy and daughter dates, iced oat milk lattes, home cooked meals, 70’s soul music, and the sound of ocean waves. As a doula— I live for a grounded, confident, SUPPORTED, and informed client. I am a firm believer that birth should NOT be a traumatic experience. I’m also a firm believer that a well watered mama increases the likelihood of a healthy and happy baby. A doula’s role is to support both mother and child. Together we’ll explore mindfulness techniques, comfort measures, and ensure your toolkit is well equipped for a positive birthing experience. I am happy to discuss breastfeeding techniques, to create a postpartum game plan, to provide herbal teas and natural remedies, to offer customizable meal plans, and to help you design a birth plan. I look forward to supporting you on this journey to parenthood! Let’s connect!

A Little About Myself My name is Elise Osmun, I grew up in a small town in southern Oregon with my parents and three siblings. Over the last ten years I have made many moves in my life. My family and I left Oregon to live in San Diego California where I then attend San Diego State University to obtain a Bachelors in Psychology. While working as a professional nanny for years, I gained a beautiful community of families, mothers, and babies. I had the pleasure of meeting a doula who suggested I volunteer at the hospital birthing center to see how I liked it. I fell in love with the Doula world and went on to obtain my certification. While going through the program I realized the many other certifications that would be beneficial in helping as many people as possible. I have met my life partner and decided to join his military lifestyle. After a few moves we now have a long term home in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I have always had a strong passion for supporting families during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Each family has their own way of parenting, needs, and values. My goal is to support you in having a non-judgmental, informed, and respected birth experience. I am committed to getting to know you throughout your pregnancy, and creating a close relationship with you before that special day. It would be an honor to support & comfort you during these most intimate and sacred moments of your life!

Hello, my name is Brooke Walke. After 10 years as a professional nanny, I have chosen to focus on infant and parent care in the Postpartum Doula world. I have worked with all kinds of families and pride myself on my ability to mold to fit the needs of each individual family. I strongly believe that having a village is important so my goal is to provide that village for those that may not have it. I was born and raised in the Hampton Roads area, known for its strong military presence, so I’m well versed on how so many families lack that family village due to distance.

I am a Birth Doula that is passionate about working with families to help them achieve the birth experience that they are looking for. I provide emotional, physical and educational support during pregnancy, labor and delivery, as well as during the postpartum period.

As a doula, I believe in supporting the birthing person and their partner(s)/birth team wholeheartedly without judgment. Everyone has a birth journey unique to them and I'm honored every time I get to join a family on that journey.

I am a local to Virginia Beach, and although I plan to stay here long term, my heart also has a home in Hawaii where I spent a few years in my twenties. I love to adventure, design, have community and learn new things! I spend 100% of the time being a mother to two absolutely, wildly amazing children, and being a wife to my long-time sweet heart. I have had beautiful home births with both my children and I would love to have more children! My dream is grow a business that not only supports my family, but over all, supports woman and families all of the world so that we as mothers and as families feel the most confident and empowered that we have ever felt as a community, so that we raise generations of parents and children to be self-sufficient, self-thinkers and rooted in love.

Hello! I am a state certified doula, Medicaid approved doula, perinatal specialist and placenta specialist. I support families across Hampton Roads and I would love to be considered as part of your support team.

Hi there! I'm Rebekah Niesen, and I became a Certified Birth Doula and Certified Lactation Counselor after birthing 4 kids and breastfeeding them all. I firmly believe that labor support, both emotional and physical, has an incredibly positive effect on labor outcomes, health of mother and baby, even bonding of your new family. My background includes the various fields of a degree in Microbiology and my first job which was to mentor college students, uniting my interests of research with communication and coaching. I have applied this to being a birth doula and lactation counselor, educating the family in evidence-based best practice to cultivate advocacy empowerment and how it pertains to each individual situation. When I am not serving others, you can find me walking the dog, reading a good book, accompanying my average singing with my average guitar playing, or playing board games with my husband and kids. I take Tricare insurance and can work with you if your insurance covers family services.

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.

I am a midwife in SE Virginia. I have been practicing since 2007. I have 7 children, 5 grandchildren and have been married for 36 years. I believe in informed consent, education, respect, kindness and making relationships. I help families at home, our birth center or in the hospital. Our practice provides care to all pregnant people....regardless of family makeup, financial status, gender, citizen status, race or religion.

Hi, I’m Ms. Tory—yes, the same person you see here as Tory W! I’m the founder and Creative Director of The Maternal Concierge. Take a moment to look me up and read the reviews from families I’ve supported. I’ll wait. Now that you’re back, let me share the heart behind this network. After more than 30 years caring for children and supporting families, I’ve seen how often parents navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood without enough connected support. They may find someone for one need, then feel alone trying to figure out what comes next. That’s why I created The Maternal Concierge alongside trusted colleagues in Virginia’s perinatal community: to help fill those gaps and build continuity of care. We connect families with doulas, newborn care specialists, lactation support, mental health professionals, wellness providers, and postpartum support teams. Our shared purpose is to care for the whole family and help parents feel seen, supported, and less alone. I’m also the founder of Whispering Lullabies and creator of the Sacred Sleep Method, a gentle, nervous-system-informed approach centered on connection, regulation, and emotional safety. Whether I’m supporting a family directly or connecting them with another professional, my goal is the same: to help parents feel heard, confident, and supported through each new chapter. If you’re unsure what kind of support you need, that’s a good place to begin. Let’s help you find your village.

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.

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!
