Joanna Pixley
HI I am Joanna Pixley, I am a mother of 4 and I became a Doula because after having my first baby I realized I needed more support. I had a wonderful Doula for my 2nd baby and it made such a huge difference, that I wanted every women to experience such love and support through childbirth. Ive been a active Doula for the last 20 years and I have loved every moment.

Billie Brittany Ann
I became a doula because I believe everyone deserves nonjudgmental support and a sense of connection during major life transitions. I’ve been a doula for a decade, supporting families through birth, postpartum, and medically complex situations. As a queer doula, my work is deeply rooted in affirming care and creating spaces where all identities and family structures feel safe.

Khadija Ali
My journey to becoming a doula began with my roots in Somalia, where I first witnessed the struggles, many women face when accessing quality maternal care. Those early experiences taught me how deeply childbirth impacts not only the mother, but also the child, family, and community.
