I am Shantel, your friendly neighborhood doula.

I believe that every birthing person deserves to feel supported, respected, and celebrated. As a community doula, my mission is to uplift families by providing compassionate, evidence-based care that protects both your health and your joy.

Birth is powerful, transformative, and sacred. Too often, Black women and birthing people face unnecessary risks and challenges in the healthcare system. My vision is to change that story—one birth at a time, right here in my neighborhood—by centering love, advocacy, and dignity in the birth space.

When you work with me, you’re not just hiring a doula—you’re gaining a sister, a cheerleader, and a resource who’s dedicated to your well-being before, during, and after childbirth. I’ll walk with you through the highs, the challenges, and the unforgettable moments of bringing life into the world.

My Commitment to Birthing Families:

• To nurture expectant parents with emotional support and physical comfort

• To provide honest, evidence-based information so you feel confident and empowered

• To honor the beauty of Black motherhood and parenthood

• To help you and your family hold onto the joy, the memories, and the dignity of this sacred journey

It is truly my pleasure to serve with love for my community, respect for the wisdom of birth, and a whole lot of heart.

Let’s make your birth story one rooted in strength, joy, and community pride.
