Full Spectrum Doula, Death Doula, Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, Yoga Instructor, Reiki Practitioner
JajuanaPeace and Blessings! I am Jajuana, an experienced full spectrum doula, placenta encapsulation specialist, Reiki practitioner, certified yoga instructor, healer, mentor, and advocate for reproductive rights and justice. Reclaiming my birthright and my ancestors’ spiritual and healing practices awakened my passion for birth work and wholistic health and wellness, a journey I have been on for well over 25 years. As a grounded believer in promoting the overall health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities, I strive to provide full-service support to empower individuals to connect with and reclaim their inner Divine Power. As a natural born nurturer and caregiver to others, I have had the honor of assisting families wherever they have found themselves on their reproductive journey. As your Doula, I am here to be of service to you: to advocate and elevate you as you transform, to listen as you share, to pour love as you grow, to encourage and remind you to trust in your body, and to answer questions as they arise. As your birth and postpartum doula, it is my duty to nurture you as you heal and create safe and sacred space for your tiny Spirit until you get them earthside.
“To be a doula is to be of service; to offer nonjudgmental support, sisterhood, experience, wisdom, and knowledge to a birthing person in all choices and natural outcomes. Being a Black Doula is to be the champion of black and brown babies and their mothers. I strive to be with, hold sacred space for, and celebrate people going through reproductive experiences, especially in places where systemic racial disparities impact birth outcomes. It is an honor to advocate for, support and educate birthing persons on their journey. What a beautiful gift it is to share in this work; I am ancestrally and eternally grateful.” ~ Jajuana

TawiannaGreetings! I am Tawianna and I am a trained Birth Doula in Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas. This path of becoming a Doula chose me long before I came across the profession of being a birth worker. My purpose is to nurture, inform, and empower you so that you can create a plan to have the birthing experience you desire. I am here to get to know you and your family, and help support you emotionally and physically throughout this journey of ushering in new life. I look forward to building a relationship, and providing you with the resources to make this a smooth transition.
My professional background includes attending North Carolina Central University-BA Public Administration, which led me on a service mission to serve young teen mothers, and becoming a mentor with Young Professionals Organizations. Becoming a mother myself is what sparked a new passion to serve new parents through the process of pregnancy and birth. I am currently completing my certification program through Birth Arts International. My services currently include Birth Doula packages, Belly Binding, and Breastfeeding Support. I look forward to working with you and your growing family!

Tashona
Hello! My name is Tashona. I was born in sunny Florida and raised in the wonderful state of North Carolina. As a 10 year military spouse I've moved many, many times and am thrilled to have landed back at home in North Carolina.
I believe strongly that I was created to help, serve, and care for others so that they can fully do what they were created to do. After becoming a licensed massage therapist in 2013 and specializing in women's wellness, my passion for the prenatal period led me down the path of becoming certified in Fertility Massage (for both partners), Prenatal, Labor, and Postpartum Massage, and Infant Massage instruction. These massage certifications are what introduced me to birth work and now I can't imagine doing anything else.

La Tanya
I am LaTanya, a Full Spectrum Doula, Yoga Instructor, Reiki Practitioner, Stretch Coach, Life Coach and Sacred Activist for life changing modalities. I am a mother of three (3) and grandmother of 7 of which I assisted with the birth of five of my grandchildren; Reign 13, Matea 7, Kekari 5, Cyneia 3 and Tavi 2. To witness and assist with the miracle birth of my grandchildren was the rite of passage to serve as a doula.
According to maternal family oral history, both parents serve their communities as facilitators of healing. This included self-empowerment, self-healing, education, energy work, “Granny” midwifery, homeopathic remedies, and spiritual guidance. I am a continuum of their mission and passion for wellness and life. So, the love for “Birth Work” is relevant to me and even coded in my DNA. I believe it provides a conduit for a reset to relational dynamics within the family and a healing balm to heal life where it appears broken or interrupted. Empowering Birth Parents to set their desired intentions to create an enriching birth experience that is safe, can provide a wholistic atonement for the family unit. Having 30 plus years of experience working with individuals and families, providing full wellness services, intuitive guidance, assisting them in reclaiming and understanding their natural birthright and sense of value as a contributor to life itself and society is a call I accept on my life. As a Doula Advocate and an innate nurturer, I will strive to provide you with inclusive and accessible Full Spectrum education and resources throughout the stages of your childbirth journey, while assisting you to identify your needs, aspirations and strengths through attentive intuitive listening and encouragement. I am so excited and grateful to take this journey with you and family. Much love and light always!
