A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to a birthing person before, during and after childbirth to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible.

Countless scientific trials examining doula care demonstrate remarkably improved physical and psychological outcomes for both the birthing person and baby. Doulas have a positive impact on the well-being of the entire family.

Both Domonique and Sharde' are trained through DONA International

A Doula DOES NOT take the place of your partner. We support the birthing person and their partner with skills, knowledge, and experience. Your spouse/partner will be included in every step and given an opportunity for active recovery + rest during labor support.

Myself and/or my backup will make every attempt to support you and get to you as soon as we are able. I will provide phone/text/video support as much as possible when the technology is available. Anything that results in our absence at your birth will be addressed on a case-by-case basis and may result in a partial refund.

If a failure to attend your birth is due to a rapid labor (baby is born less than 60 minutes after you call me and ask me to come, we will provide one additional 2-hour postpartum visit.

We take on two clients per month.
