Hi, I'm Alysha! I am a Certified Birth Doula serving the St. Louis area. I believe that every woman should feel empowered to have the birth experience she desires while staying safe and healthy. Having attended both medicated and unmedicated births, I know there is beauty in every kind of birth, and I consider it an honor to be present for each and every one! I am certified through DONA International. I have also received training from Spinning Babies, Evidence-Based Birth, the VBAC Link, and Gena Kirby's Rebozo Course. If you choose me as your doula, you can be assured you will have a knowledgeable support person with you, not only at your birth, but throughout your entire pregnancy!
I had a wonderful experience with Alysha during the birth of my first baby. She provided invaluable support, emotional encouragement, and expert guidance throughout the process. I highly recommend Alysha to anyone seeking a doula.

I have been a nurse for 20+ years. As a nurse I have seen the impact that doulas have on maternal and infant health. For that reason I also became a doula. I am certified in reiki, TENS unit application, and water birth. I am also studying herbalism, aromatherapy, and acupressure. I believe that all mothers should have access to all holistic services related to birth. I am certified through DONA International. I would love to be your doula!
Stacie was my doula for the birth of my 3rd child. She still needed a certification birth so I reached out to her and signed up with her to be my doula. My partner and I were very nervous about allowing someone in our home due to a past tragedy in our town. A doula in our town several years ago killed a woman and stole her baby. Due to this we were very nervous. Stacie eased our concerns right away by presenting in a very professional manor. She was extremely knowledgeable about pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum. She was also able to provide references, actual certifications, and professional organization details. Because of this, our anxiety disappeared. She was there for 3 prenatal visits, the birth, and a postpartum visit. She was very supportive through the whole process. I did end up needing to be induced, and got an epidural, but she was still very helpful. She provided great support from the moment we all arrived at the hospital to about 2 hours after the birth. I would highly recommend Stacie (Holistic Expectations) to be a doula. She is professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. I would use her again.

Natalie was an absolute god-send from preparation to birth and even postpartum! She helped me to achieve my goal of an all natural birth and was the biggest supporter, motivator, and advocate along the way. Her knowledge, calm demeanor, and passion set her apart. I truly couldn’t have done it without her.

I am a birth doula and photographer, and I serve the areas in and around Fulton, Columbia, and Jefferson City. I became a doula because a woman's experience in labor and childbirth can often affect how confident she feels as a mother, especially in the early weeks postpartum. The role of a mother is an important one and it is vital that she feels empowered to make decisions for herself and her children that line up with her beliefs and values. Mothers have certain beliefs and values because they believe that these will be the most beneficial for their children and I want to support that.
Abbey was so supportive during and around the birth of my child. She provided great resources and really took the time to understand my partner and I's preferences for labor. During labor, she was attentive and worked to make me as comfortable as labor would allow. Overall, having Abbey around made labor better and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for extra support during and around labor.

About me! 🌱 I am a homeschooling mother of 3. 💍l have been married to my middle school sweetheart for 7 years. 🏥I am a Certified Birth, Postpartum, & Bereavement Doula + Peer Lactation Counselor.🏠 🤱I serve St.Louis, MO & Surrounding Areas.❣️ 💫 I am a true birth junky to the core, naturally birthing has been the thrill of a lifetime! I have assisted mamas for over a decade in between breaks to birth and raise my own. My first time serving as a doula was in my early teens. 🩷I am VBAC & Spinning Babies certified. 👼🏻As a mother of two angels, I find Perinatal Bereavement to be some of the most important work I have assisted with. 🌈I am double certified in bereavement and have been honored to help families navigate through such a sacred grieving process. 🩷My lifelong passion has always been supporting people through their ideal birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding journeys, whatever that may look like. ☀️Discovering your new identity within whatever motherhood journey you find yourself on.

I first met Shelby when she was 14 years old and even then, she was interested in childbirth. She had an inquisitive mind and a munificent heart. I had my daughter when Shelby was 16 and even at that young age, she was my biggest supporter. My husband at the time was clueless, like most first time dads, and my mom lived 4 hours away. Shelby checked on me frequently and encouraged me to advocate for myself during my pregnancy, all while being a kid and focusing on her schooling. I was induced on a Friday night at 37 weeks and unfortunately, ended up needing to have a c-section the following Sunday morning. Even though it was not the outcome I wanted, Shelby was at the hospital with me all weekend prior to my c-section while I was in labor (along with my husband at the time, my mom and my brother). Shelby’s presence during labor calmed me. She understood the balance between fun and serious. Whether I needed ice chips, someone to distract me during a contraction or to sit on the medicine ball, Shelby seemed to anticipate my needs before I could articulate them. As a very anxious first-time mom, that was so important to me. Shelby has only become more compassionate, knowledgeable and experienced as a doula over the last 13 years. She takes her clients needs seriously and will do everything in her power to make you feel comfortable during your labor.

Hi! I’m Kylie, a wife and mama of three kids. I work with a team of 3 doulas in and surrounding Springfield, Missouri I’ve had a passion for pregnancy and birth since I was a little kid, which has just grown over the years. At 17, I was present for the home birth of my youngest sibling. In that moment, I turned to the midwife and told her I was going to do this (birth work) with my life. After having my first baby, I realized how vital support is for a new mom. Whether it’s her first, third, or fifth baby. My goal as your Doula is to support and nurture you every step along the way of your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
Kylie has a strong passion and love for anything birth and baby related. The support she provided in my last pregnancy/birth gave me so much confidence as I went into labor despite struggling with anxiety. She was able to help me find a calmness and a strength that I didn’t experience in my previous births where I didn’t have a doula. I know she will be a blessing and a great resource to any expecting mother!

I’m a work from home mom and I had my first baby in June of 2023! My husband and I have been married since 2022 and we’ve grown up in Kansas City our whole life. I’ve been passionate about birth since I saw my mother birth her last two children about 10 years ago and noticed how much women need advocates and support during pregnancy, labor, delivery and postpartum! Since then, I’ve been trained as a doula through GEM (Global Education of the Midwife) and have been pursuing a postpartum doula course as well. I hope to provide my clients with all the information necessary to empower them to make informed decisions about their birth plan/goals. If a client is open to it, I also love my Christian faith and try to implement that in areas of my work as well.
Theresa was very kind and always willingly to answer any and all questions regarding childbirth I had, especially as a first time mom. I’d highly recommend her as your doula as she is informed, attentive, and very flexible!!!

Hello, I'm LaCrisha, but most people call me Crisha. I was born and raised in St. Louis, and I’m proud to call it my hometown. I’m blessed with a wonderful, supportive husband, five amazing kids, and a few adorable grandchildren. My happiest moments are spent with my family—whether we’re going out to eat, enjoying a good movie together, or dancing the night away. For many years, I found myself in labor and delivery rooms, supporting family members, friends, and even friends of friends. Sometimes, people assumed I was there to translate, but most of the time, I was simply there to help and offer comfort. It became such a natural role for me that people began asking how long I’d been a nurse. Though I’m not a nurse, I realized how much I love helping others during such a monumental time in their lives. Now, as a Certified Doula, I feel incredibly grateful and honored to be part of these intimate and life-changing moments. Meeting new moms-to-be feels like gaining instant family, and I cherish the opportunity to support them as they step into this exciting new chapter of their lives. To me, every birth represents a new beginning—a fresh start filled with love, hope, and endless possibilities.
LaCrisha is a very compassionate and intelligent person. I highly recommend having her!

With a passion for supporting families through the transformative journey of childbirth and early parenting, I bring expertise in providing compassionate care, promoting breastfeeding, and fostering parent-infant bonding through the art of infant massage.
Emily was outstanding as our doula. She eased our worries and remained with us throughout the whole process. She was very informative and helpful throughout the whole process. She made us feel at ease. She ensured our needs were met and guided us through our pregnancy and birth. She went beyond our expectations, and even assisted us after birth as well with our breastfeeding struggles. We were so lucky to have her, and she was able to capture pictures for us so that our focus could be on the birth, each other, and our beautiful baby. It was an amazing experience with Emily and one that we will definitely love to have her for again for any future births we have.

De Soto, Missouri
Becoming a doula stemmed from a deeply personal journey for me. As a mother of 5, I have personally experienced the highs and lows of childbirth, including heartbreaking miscarriages, and scary pregnancy complications that left me feeling vulnerable and alone. These experiences ignited a spiritual calling within me to support and comfort other mothers during their birthing journeys. I saw the need for a compassionate advocate to stand by their side, providing guidance, emotional support, and a comforting presence throughout the transformative process of bringing new life into the world. It is through my own trials and triumphs that I found my purpose as a doula, driven by empathy and a heartfelt desire to be a source of strength for other women during one of the most significant moments of their lives. The cost of doula services can be a concern for many expecting mothers, but I understand the importance and value of having a supportive doula by your side during this special time. Every woman deserves access to doula support, which is why we can work together to create a personalized package that fits not only your needs but also your financial situation. I believe in making doula services accessible and affordable to all women, ensuring that you have the care and guidance you deserve throughout your pregnancy and childbirth journey.

As 5th of 12 children I have been surrounded by birth my whole life. After doing a 2 day birth crash course I was struck to my core by the beauty of birth and realized my call to this sacred work. I went on to take an intensive birth doula/midwifery intro course that has honed my passion and given me the tools to be a competent birth companion. My mom and I now work together as a dynamic dual-generational birth team! We are passionate about educating and supporting women to empower them to have instictive and autonomous births.

Hi! I am a certified nurse midwife! I love providing women with un-rushed, gentle care. I focus on shared decision making and informed consent. We have 60 mins for new patient visits and 30 min for return patients- this is for both GYN and pregnancy visits. This extra time allows you to have all your questions and concerns addressed without feeling the pressure of an overly booked provider. I attend births at Missouri Baptist Medical Center and have a fabulous collaborating OBGYN for any patients with complications out of my scope of practice or those needing surgical intervention. I have a background in home birth and birth center birth where I practiced for 4 years- I give that same warm, friendly, present care in the hospital owned practice setting!

My name is Kayla Jones & I'm a birth doula in the Denver Metro area where I live with my husband Sam and Atticus, our Great Dane. I'm originally from New Jersey and have lived in Colorado since 2015. I have a degree in Social Work and a minor in Human Development & Family Science which is where I first found my love for momma's and their babies. After a few doors closing, God opened the door for me to be a doula. I sat in my first DONA workshop & cried as I watched birth videos knowing I had finally found what I was supposed to do. I view being a doula as the greatest blessing that I get to be a part of each of your "best day ever". The fact that my job is to witness miracles is something that I will never take for granted.
“I wish I knew about Bornbir sooner, as it's so important to surround yourself with experts who understand during those overwhelming moments and share evidence-based information.”
“I found my birth doula on Bornbir. After submitting my needs, I was able to connect with several awesome doulas that are within a local distance from me.”
“Bornbir is a powerful network. It makes connecting with maternal providers so much easier. It means supporting one another through this parenthood journey, no matter what stage you are in.”
