Metro Atlanta In-person and Virtual Birth, VBAC, and Postpartum Doula Services

Hello! My name is Amy and I’m so happy you’re here. As a birth and postpartum doula, I am passionate about caring for mothers before, during, and after childbirth.
I am no longer practicing in the metro Atlanta area since I have moved to the North GA mountains. But, I am praying about beginning to serve North GA families in the summer of 2027!
“My husband and I both said that I would not have had the amazing birth I did without the help and support of Amy. From positions in pushing, coaching me through contractions, explaining why I was feeling what I was feeling to the verbal support...she did it all! I cannot recommend her enough!!”
DONA International defines a birth doula as “a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to a mother before, during, and shortly after childbirth to help her achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible.” A postpartum doula helps families navigate the immediate postpartum period.
“I am so thankful for Amy’s support before, during, and after the birth of our daughter. She offered many resources and advice that helped me prepare for an unmedicated birth. During my labor her support to my husband and I was incredible. The whole time I felt safe and supported to labor. She helped me keep my focus and end goal in mind. I could not have imagined doing it without her.”
As a DONA-certified birth doula, I serve and empower mothers and their birth partners with kind encouragement, powerful education, and dependable communication. By becoming a part of her birth team, I’ll help her find her own voice and achieve the birth she and her birth partner desire. I will meet with her and her birth partner twice before her labor and delivery, continuously serve her and her birth partner during her childbirth, and visit with her once at her home after her baby is born.
As a postpartum doula, I care for you and your newborn in your home. I offer non-judgmental understanding and focused support in all areas of postpartum need: baby feeding, newborn care, diapering, newborn and mama sleep, meals, household tasks, sibling adjustment, laundry, etc.
“I simply cannot imagine having a natural birth without her. When I was starting to lose it, I heard her calm and secure voice every time. I felt as though she brought me back to the light. I knew that my comfort and well-being was her priority. I felt that while giving birth.”
I am no longer serving a service area radius approximately 30 miles from Lilburn because I moved to the North GA mountains in the summer of 2025. But, I am happy to recommend other doulas closer to you!
