Welcome! My name is Shiphrah, and I am a dedicated doula, student midwife, and mother with a passion for empowering families through their birth journeys. As a home birther myself, I deeply value the transformative experience of childbirth and understand the importance of compassionate, personalized care. I have supported all variations of birth, including hospital, out-of-hospital, home, birth center, water, dry, surgical, midwife-attended, and obstetrician-led births. With this diverse experience, I am equipped to provide holistic support that meets your unique needs and preferences. In addition to my doula work, I am pursuing midwifery, and am committed to advocating for culturally respectful and inclusive care. I serve families in San Antonio, Schertz, and surrounding areas, guiding them with wisdom, kindness, and unwavering support through every step of their journey. I look forward to walking alongside you as you welcome new life into the world!

Shiphrah was my doula for my first child, and I cannot begin to describe the way her support carried me through pregnancy and birth. Her passion for this field shines with her expertise and unwavering aid. I recommend her every chance I get and will forever do so. Words cannot begin to express how much I appreciate her and how much I recommend her for anyone else's birth!

I have had the privilege of working with Shiphrah in the birth room many times, and her calm, loving presence always stands out. She brings deep wisdom and skill to supporting birth in all its forms. Her supportive and encouraging words are deeply grounding—especially during moments when it feels like you're doing the impossible. I wholeheartedly recommend her doula services to anyone seeking compassionate and skillful support for their birth experience.
