I am a birth and postpartum doula as well as a newborn care specialist and infant sleep training consultant serving the Richmond, VA area. I have been involved in birth work since 1992. I have 13 children that I have delivered at home and in a hospital setting with both doctors and midwives.

I offer childbirth education, birth and postpartum doula services, and I am also a newborn care specialist.
Having Ruth as our doula was undoubtedly one of the best decisions my husband and I made during my pregnancy... If Ruth can keep this nervous first-time anxiety ridden Mama happy during a pandemic – AND keep me smiling, laughing and CALM in the L&D room for over 24 hours – she is capable of anything!! Hire Ruth and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Ruthy was our doula for both of my wife's pregnancies with our first and second children... We are so very grateful for Ruthy's doula services and recommend her to anyone looking for the "total package" doula!

Ruth was great. She was easy to work with, down to earth, and professional with our kids. We love Ruth.

Ruth Green was my doula for the birth of my son last year. She was a wonderful support to our family before, during and after his birth... I would definitely ask Ruthy to be my doula again if I were to have another child and I give her the highest recommendation to others seeking an empathetic, caring, and experienced doula for their birth.

Ruthy Green has been one of the most attentive and conscientious doulas we have worked with... I fully trust her, trust her judgment and have no hesitation leaving my kids with her.

We had an excellent experience with Ruthy as our doula during the birth of our first child... All in all, a beautiful blessing of an experience, and I would recommend her.

Ruth was a wonderful doula and I am so glad that I chose her... Ruth was truly amazing and if I ever had another child I would without question hire her again.

Working with Ruthy is an absolute pleasure... Anyone who chooses to work with Ruthy can be confident that they will have the spiritual, emotional, and physical support to create a positive birthing experience.

My husband and I had our hearts set on having a home birth vbac before we even became pregnant... Ruthy came with us to the hospital. She talked me through my options regarding pain management... We were so blessed to have her present throughout labor and during our birth!
