Working with children and families as a babysitter, in child care centers and as a professional nanny has been such a joy and I am humbled and excited to share all of my knowledge and experience as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. There is something so fulfilling about helping a new parents embrace their instincts and find their way in the glorious world of parenthood. Having a baby is a beautiful time for a family, but it can be very stressful because of the unknown. I want to help nurture and support families during labor & delivery as well as the special transition time known as the
"fourth trimester." I am a 34 year-old Georgia Peach currently residing in Raleigh, North Carolina with my wonderful husband DeAntony, and our beautiful little boy, Preston. I am what I call a ‘Non-traditional Southern Belle’ with a touch of Mary Poppins :-) Other than being a wife and mother, I am also a fitness instructor, writer/blogger and consultant. |

My husband and I met 15 years ago while attending Shaw University and became college sweethearts. We are both from the Atlanta area, but fell in love with the family-friendly atmosphere of Raleigh and decided to make North Carolina our home. You can usually catch us on the weekends experiencing all that our great city has to offer at various events and serving the community. My husband, DeAntony, was a candidate for Raleigh City Council-District E in 2015 and now serves as a political consultant and community advocate. We want to give back to the city that has given us so much. Please feel free to introduce yourself if you see us! Our son, Preston, is a sweet, bright little man who truly is my heart. Becoming a mother was and still is one of the greatest days of my life and it has taught me so much about myself as well as helped guide me in my work. |
