🌿 Hi, I’m Kimberly Johnson—a certified birth and postpartum doula, with additional training as a high-risk doula. I’m passionate about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum season with compassionate, evidence-based care. I’m married to a retired Navy Chief, and we’re a blended family with four daughters and one son, all grown. We’re also proud grandparents to four grandsons who bring us so much joy. My journey into doula work began after my own challenging birth experiences. Those moments shaped my commitment to ensuring families feel heard, supported, and informed throughout their care. I’m here to provide calm, caring, and judgment-free support so you feel confident and cared for every step of the way. ✨ Let’s connect—I’d love to be part of your journey into parenthood!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about choosing Kim as our Sibling Doula. Leaving our 3 and 5 year olds while heading to the hospital to deliver our youngest son was something we worried about so much, but she completely eased every fear and stress we had from the moment we left. She went above and beyond to make sure our kids felt safe, loved, entertained, and excited during such a big family transition. Not only were they incredibly well cared for, but they genuinely had an absolute blast with her. She kept them happy, busy, comfortable, and made the entire experience feel fun and special for them instead of stressful or scary. Knowing our children were in such capable, caring hands allowed my husband and me to fully focus on welcoming our baby boy into the world. That peace of mind was priceless. She is honest, dependable, thoughtful, and truly gifted at what she does. We are beyond grateful for her and would recommend her to any growing family in a heartbeat.

Our birthing experience with Kimberly was very supportive. She was able to share her expertise and knowledge with myself and my husband that helped our birthing experience comfortable and with ease. I would highly recommend her services to any of my family or friends.

Kimberly was such an amazing support for us during our first pregnancy and birth experience. Since we don’t have parents or family in town, it meant so much to have someone we could truly rely on throughout the process. She gave us a one-on-one crash course on labor, birth, what to expect postpartum, and helped us create a birth plan that made us feel confident and prepared. What really stood out was how available and supportive she was — day or night, Kimberly was always there to answer questions and provide reassurance. She is incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and passionate about what she does. We felt so much more at ease having her by our side during such a huge life moment. If you’re considering hiring a doula, book Kimberly — you will not be disappointed!

Kim and Shanise cared for our twins from the time the time they came home from the NICU at 5 weeks old until they were 4 months old. When they came home from the NICU, one of the twins was not even 5 pounds as they came at 32 weeks. Kim and Shanise took such wonderful care of the girls, helping them to gain weight and go from four feedings per night to now just one. Along the way, they taught us so many helpful things which made a huge impact on our ability to care for the girls as first time parents. We are forever grateful to Kim and Shanise and don't know what we would've done without them.

We cannot recommend Kim highly enough. From the very first night, she provided exceptional postpartum care for both myself and my newborn, bringing a sense of calm, confidence, and support during a vulnerable time. She was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and gentle with our newborn, ensuring feedings, soothing, and sleep routines were handled with expert care. Just as importantly, she looked after my recovery, offering reassurance, practical guidance, and much-needed rest. Thanks to her professionalism and compassion, we felt truly supported and well cared for. She made an enormous difference in our postpartum experience, and we are so grateful for her dedication.

I can’t recommend Kimberly enough for postpartum doula services. We used Kimberly and Shanice for postpartum night support from the week our twins were born to around 4 months of age. Not only did their services give our family some much needed sleep but they also gave our boys so much love and attention. We are so thankful to have met and used them in those first few months of our boys lives.
