As a dedicated and supportive mother, my goal is to help you take a step back and truly take hold of each moment of your labor. I believe in empowering you to make the choices that feel right for you as your birth journey unfolds. Your birth story should be a beautiful reflection of your experience and the role you play. I live by a simple yet profound motto: “The mother deserves to be cherished and celebrated, the baby deserves to be embraced and revered, and the space around them is sacred and should be honored.” Together, let's create an atmosphere that nurtures all of this. I am a birth doula who equally specializes in all birth outcomes. I delivered my son who was incompatible with life and it opened my eyes to the need of bereavement doulas as well as birth doulas. Hold and honor your babies.

Emily is very compassionate when it comes to the language and care during childloss. Although we didnt get to experience her during a labor, she was very knowledgeable and would hire her for future birth.

Hi, my name is Alaila. I've been working as a doula for about 1 year now. I have 8 years of experience working in childcare as an early childhood education teacher. I have 3 children of my own, 1 boy and 2 girls. I became a doula because, I myself have preterm labor so I know the struggle to be heard during such an emotionally and physically difficult time as labor. I wanted to become a voice for anyone who is experiencing this struggle, to lift up their voice in the birthing room. I am currently enrolled and taking classes at Henry Ford to become a Medical Assistant. I plan to specialize as a Radiographer so that I can be even more helpful to the mothers I serve in the community and clinic settings.

Hi everyone, I'm Ashli Burney, The Viberant Doula, here to support you and your family during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My passion is to equip families with the tools they need to self advocate and create a rememberable birth experience. I am really big on self-care and I believe that you have to do for yourself, like you do for everyone else. For self-care I like to go for walks, give myself a facial, paint my nails and toes, arts & crafts, and just sit and do nothing while I listen to music.

Ashli was absolutely fantastic during my birth with my second baby. She advocated for me and encouraged me throughout my whole labor and delivery and was very informative during my prenatal and postnatal visits! She made my birth such a beautiful and wonderful experience and my husband and I will be forever grateful for her support! If you need a doula I promise you Ashli is the women for you!

I’m Sam! I am an internationally board certified lactation consultant as well as a trained postpartum and birth doula. I always knew I wanted to work with babies and families and started off as a professional nanny. Then when I had my first and started breastfeeding I fell in love with it and was such an advocate for everyone to breastfeed. It wasn’t until my 2nd daughter that I even knew lactation consultants were a thing. I got referred to one and when I met her she changed the game. So I went to Henry Ford College to get my certification and graduated from the lactation program in 2022. I understand firsthand the challenges and joys that come with feeding your baby, and I’m here to provide compassionate, personalized care to help you feel confident every step of the way. Every feeding journey is different just like every baby and parent is.

Providing support, care, and comfort .I have many years of experience with newborn/infants and currently in a birth doula/ postpartum course! I recently nannied for 2 baby cousins born the same day. I have extensive experience with multitasking, managing sleep schedules, feeding (including familiarity with breastfeeding support), changing, and providing comfort.

I’m Mikah! I’m a full-spectrum doula and I have been a doula for about 2 years. I just started school to be a home-birth midwife. I love serving others especially women and babies. I am big on naturalistic and holistic care. I am a believer and I love to pray with my clients if that’s something they would desire.

My children love Mikah ! She’s absolutely great and we were so grateful /excited to have her apart of our support system . We did find her a little late in our pregnancy going into my 3rd trimester but she responded immediately and we didn’t waste time after that . She’s quite the help (: , she provided us with one of her lactation consultant friend Sandra , who gave us tips on how to breastfeed more effectively and they were both very knowledgeable about the proper nutrition needed to keep up my milk supply. Her gentle and calming nature helped ease our anxieties and we felt extremely comfortable leaving our son Joshua in her care while we were able to get a few hours rest. Mikah is just overall amazing and a great person to open up to as well and I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs/wants a doula . She also meal prepared for us - which btw was DELICIOUS!!! And provided the best freshly pressed juice I’ve ever had which also helped me shed some postpartum weight off .

When it comes to the birth space, my goal is to support you in any of your choices, even if they change. I focus on inclusivity (I work towards anti-racism, anti-transphobia, anti-fatphobia, and disability visibility). I am an advocate and guardian in the birth space. I have a lot of passions and interests and have books on everything from rain, moss, clouds, pregnancy, birth, parenting, and death. when I am your Doula, I’m your friend. Not only do I provide comfort and knowledge, but I’m also here for you to confide in, talk things through, and laugh with! Sometimes I’m witchy, sometimes I’m crunchy, sometimes I’m basic, sometimes I’m punky. That’s me!
