I am a compassionate and dedicated birth doula who believes every mother deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, and supported throughout her pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. My philosophy is rooted in empowering families with knowledge so they can make confident decisions that align with their values and birth goals. I strive to create a calm, safe, and encouraging environment where mothers feel seen, their voices are honored, and their choices are respected. As someone called to serve my community, especially underserved families, I am committed to providing culturally responsive, evidence-based, and heartfelt support that helps women enter parenthood with confidence, dignity, and strength. I believe birth is a powerful and transformative experience, and it is an honor to walk alongside families during one of the most meaningful moments of their lives. *You can reach out to me directly through my website* https://divinedoulawithpur.wixsite.com/divine-doula-creat-2

I am so grateful for my doula Jasmine Kimbrough and all the support she has given me throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum journey. She was there for me during active labor, encouraged me, and taught me helpful techniques that made me feel more comfortable and supported. She also checked in on me before and after birth, shared so many helpful resources, and continued to care for me even after my baby was born. She has even gone out of her way to drop off diapers and wipes for us, which meant so much to me. She is truly kind, caring, dependable, and compassionate. I felt very supported and cared for during such an important time in my life. I would highly recommend her to any mom looking for a wonderful doula. 💕🥹

Shantique Smith-Hayes

Peace, my name is Shantique Smith-Hayes and I am a Certified Holistic Birth and Postpartum Doula in Milwaukee, WI. I am the Wife to an amazing Husband, and Mother of two lovely Daughters- ages 8 and almost 3. In my free time I love to lay out on my couch, in front of my big patio windows, cup of tea in hand, sun beaming, watching Nature do its thing. I enjoy traveling, reading books that make me feel good, painting, letting my inner child shine, and indulging in flavorful foods– Soul Food, Jamaican Food, Carribean Food, Mexican Food, you name it! I am authentically and purposefully myself. I take pride in having such a bright, Sunflower Aura. My philosophy is that every mother and baby, regardless of circumstances at time of conception, should have access to quality, personal, supportive care. As a Holistic Doula, my approach to pregnancy and childbirth recognizes that a woman's body is naturally designed to conceive, nourish, and give birth to their baby(ies). Our wombs are our centers and do far more than produce babies: they give birth to the power in us. I am a firm believer that the more you know, the less you fear. In my practice, I review the different phases of labor, positioning of baby and pain management techniques to help cope with the discomforts of contractions. I educate women of their birthing rights and help create an individualized birth plan, ensuring that they feel confident advocating for themselves and their healthy birthing experience. I offer 1:1 individualized prenatal wellness education on topics such as: prenatal care, pregnancy related physical and emotional changes, childbirth, breastfeeding, postpartum changes, parenting roles, and newborn care and safety. My doula work involves gentle practices such as breathwork and gentle stretching, utilizing herbal medicine, taking meditative walks in nature, intuitive painting, aromacaress therapy with infused oils and essential oils, and gentle womb massages. Each of these practices has a unique way of showing us who we really are- unmasked, vulnerable, courageous and bold. These practices equip women with the tools necessary for a safe, successful and memorable pregnancy and birthing experience; all of which in turn reduces the risk of undesirable pregnancies and birth outcomes in black maternal health.

Shantique was the doula for a patient I was caring for recently. Our mother desired an unmedicated, natural birth. She was highly motivated and successful with her plan much due to the coaching provided by Shantique. She was professional and knowledgeable about the labor process. She was by her side the entire time to encourage the patient and reassure her even when she thought she couldn't do it anymore. I enjoyed working with Shantique and look forward to working with her again! Sincerely, Lynne RN
