I am a DONA-certified birth doula, Birth Becomes You-certified birth photographer, and postpartum doula. I was the first black doula-tog (doula and photographer) in the state of Michigan. I have been attending births for over 4 years in the Grand Rapids area. It was after an empowering birth experience of her own that I was compelled to pursue doula work. I now brings my kind, smiley self and my passion for birth and the fourth trimester to each interaction with my clients.
Common questions about working together β quick answers to help you decide.
A 20β30 minute video or phone call to learn about your preferences, answer questions, discuss availability and next steps. Thereβs no obligation to book β itβs just a chance to see whether we're a good fit.
Yes. I support all birth choices β unmedicated, epidural, induction, VBAC, and planned cesarean. My job is to advocate for your preferences, help you prepare, and support your decisions during labour.
Typical packages include 2β3 prenatal visits to create your birth plan and 1β2 postpartum visits (often within the first 2 weeks). Custom packages with additional visits or newborn support are available.
Call/text me when you feel labour beginning. I include on-call coverage around your due date as agreed in the contract. If birth happens quickly I will respond as fast as possible; in rare cases I will coordinate backup doulas if needed.
