Hello, I am a military veteran, spouse of a military retiree, and mother to seven children.  I understand that every lactation journey is different and can provide evidence-based care throughout the lactation journey from pregnancy/adoption/surrogacy through weaning.  Areas I have extensive knowledge in are low milk supply, exclusive pumping, feeding with alternate devices such as cup/spoon/syringe/SNS, working through correction of oral ties, transitioning to solids, and child-led weaning.  I see clients at their homes or virtually.

Hello! My name is Niki and I'm a doula, birth educator, mother of two, Navy veteran and military spouse. My years working in military healthcare helped me identify a passion for patient advocacy but it wasn't until my own traumatic birth experience that I was able to connect the dots to birth work. My passion is educating and empowering mothers so that they have the tools to make the best decisions for themselves and their babies. Every mother deserves to feel heard, supported and respected through every step of their pregnancy and birth. In order to expand accessibility I offer virtual and in person services.

Phone: (815)-245-1361

Hello and congratulations! My name is Melissa and I strive to provide the best care and Doula support for my clients.  Support that is grounded in education, listening, empathy, and encouragement.  Pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period offer many emotions as well as their own challenges.  This is a time you’ll reflect on for years to come.  As your Doula, I help you feel calm, confident, and prepared while you navigate this journey.  The most recent trainings I've attended to further support my clients include a Spinning Babies Workshop (2021) and becoming a Hypnobabies Hypno-Doula (2022).  

Along with offering Doula support, I provide a unique approach to telling your personal story from bump to baby.  I document your journey via photos and video so you can remember and cherish this extraordinary time.  What I love about this documentary style approach is being able to capture all the emotions and little moments as you anticipate and welcome your new baby!

As a Coast Guard spouse and a mother to three teenagers, I understand the challenges of finding the right support and education during pregnancy and postpartum, especially if you’ve just moved to a new area! I’d love to help make that transition a little less stressful by providing local resources and birth planning prep so you can have the experience you’re hoping for.

We decided to plant roots here in North Carolina after my husband retired last year from the USMC. Most of my doula career has been spent overseas serving military families both on and off base. I had the opportunity to learn about the Japanese birth culture and build lifetime friendships with the locals. I have been supporting families since 2008 and am honored to now be serving families from Wilmington to New Bern.
