Certified birthing doula ยท Greensboro, NC ยท Mama of 3 ยท Former military spouse ยท Advocate for mothers and women of color
I'm a birthing doula located in Greensboro, NC. I'm a mother of three and a former military spouse. I love all things motherhood โ even though some days aren't as joyful as others. I'm here for it all.
Why I Became a Doula
There are a few reasons why I became a doula. Let me share each one from the heart:
Reason one
The military community that showed up for me
Being in a foreign country alone without my family to help scared me. Until I met some wonderful women on base who threw me a baby shower and came to the hospital to help me through labor. Even after we were home, they still visited and helped me so much โ and that meant the world to me. That's when I understood the power of having the right people in your corner. I want to be that person for other mamas.
Reason two โ the most important
The mortality rate of women of color
This is the most important reason I do what I do. It breaks my heart every time I hear about a mother or baby not making it through labor. It angers me when it's due to the carelessness of medical staff. I know I can't help everyone โ but I sure will try. The statistics are unacceptable and the system needs advocates in every birth room. I want to be one of them.
Reason three
My own birth experience in the States
My third baby girl was born here in the States โ and it was a horrible experience. I thought that because it was my third pregnancy, I would be able to advocate for myself. But that was not the case โ they didn't listen. And I regretted not having a doula. You can read more about that experience here โ
"But here I am today โ with three beautiful, healthy girls, a certification, and a whole lot of plans in the works."
