Hi, I’m Becca — a postpartum doula who believes every family deserves to feel cared for, supported, and seen during the fourth trimester and beyond. I’ve spent over 20 years working with families, including ten as a nanny and several more as a caretaker, and those experiences have given me a deep understanding of what it means to show up with compassion and calm in life’s tender moments. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest with an appreciation for natural beauty, 90s country music, and the comfort that comes from a good home-cooked meal. I bring humor, heart, and an almost alarming knowledge of song lyrics to my work — because sometimes what a new parent needs most is a helping hand, a warm meal, and someone who can make them laugh when the day feels long. My goal is simple: to help you rest, recover, and find your rhythm in this new season of life — one step (and one smile) at a time

I am a community birth worker based in the Greater Chattanooga, TN area. I have been providing professional, community-based perinatal, postpartum, and lactation education and support since 2014. I have trained and/or been educated in multiple, complementary modalities to enhance and support the work I provide in the birthing communities that I am blessed to be apart of. Through my own pregnancies and birth experiences, in addition to the family's I have been blessed to support; I have diverse skillsets to enrich and prepare my clients for the birth experiences they envision. I myself have been blessed to be the mother of 7 and am married with a very supportive spouse. My entire adult life has been dedicated to being of service. Birthwork is a second career for me as I previously was a cosmetologist for 25 years prior to retiring in 2011. I am also a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces having honorably served 8 years in the U.S. Navy. When not working in the birth space I find enjoyment in spending quality time with family, traveling, outdoors activities, and crafting, and cooking. I enjoy research on topics centered around pregnancy and birth and it's complexities. I am a mentor to other birthworkers and apprenticing to become a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM aka "homebirth midwife").

I embarked on this beautiful journey in 2021 when I assisted a mama during her freebirth (the practice of women birthing their baby without medical or midwifery assistance.) Witnessing the police being called on her twice and other people trying to object to her BIRTH RIGHTS, I decided to become a certified Doula (a professional labor assistant who provides physical and emotional support to you and your partner during pregnancy) so that I may advocate for all birthing people and their partners.

Hi! My name is Chelsea and I'm a postpartum doula in Chattanooga, TN. I'm excited to light the way as you transition from pregnancy into this season with a sweet new baby. As a mom of 3, I know firsthand that the postpartum period isn't always a smooth ride. It can be difficult to figure out how to sleep while also meeting your baby's needs, who will cook the meals and wash the dishes, when you will deal with those piles of laundry, and what to do with older siblings as they navigate this emotional time, often needing more attention than normal. A doula since 2023, I have a heart for serving the whole family in their birth and postpartum season. I attended around 20 births the past couple of years and have served a handful of families with newborns. I now focus exclusively on providing exceptional postpartum care in the Chattanooga area. If you are looking for a postpartum doula who tailors support to your specific needs, works with your schedule, and who becomes a trusted friend to her clients even after our time together is over, I would love to chat with you.

It is my honor to be invited into such a sacred and intimate experience in a family's life. I love creating a peaceful and safe space for each person whether at home, a birth center, or a hospital. When I'm not doing birth things, I'm probably eating pizza, camping, or looking for the next dance party in town.

I'm Hannah, I am a social worker and mother of 4 children who were all exclusively breastfed. I have attended a C-section twin birth, one home birth and two hospital vaginal births. I am new to the doula world, so I am offering lower rates, but that doesn't mean that I am unskilled or unexperienced. If there is something I don't know, I will learn. I am here to provide whatever type of birthing experience you want- to the best of my ability. My mental health back ground makes me uniquely qualified to support mothers who may be prone to postpartum depression. I also offer parenting classes and wedding officiant services.

Hello Mamas! My name is Briana, local Ringgold postpartum doula and lover of mama and babies. I started working in the birth world again and I would LOVE to meet you! 💛 I’ve lived in Ringgold since I was 5 years old and there’s is nothing I love more than spreading the love of Jesus by loving on new mamas or mamas that have some experience under their belt. Experience: I have lacatation training through a peer counselor program as well as natural birthed and medicated birthed myself. I have been breastfeeding for 10 years (with no breaks in between) and also bottle fed my oldest. I worked in birth before c*vid and took a break since I had my youngest. Now I’ve been working in home births and I support ANY birth regardless because it’s YOUR birth. My philosophy is every woman should be supported and loved on regardless of their decision on what works best for their family and their baby. I have a no judgement policy & my specialty is post-partum care. If you have ANY questions holler at me! ☀️
