My name is Janice Miles and I am so thankful that you have reached Heart Doula Services.  I support women and families through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. 

 

As a birthing doula, I draw on my knowledge, training and experience to provide emotional support, physical comfort  and informational support.  My goal is to provide your family with the best birthing outcomes and memories. As a Christian, I serve with love and respect, supporting every family, no matter your faith or beliefs. I only bring religion into our work if you ask—your journey is yours, and I’m here to support you and your needs.

 

As a postpartum doula, I enable the new mother to recover from pregnancy and birth and facilitate the transition to parenthood for both parents by supplying reliable and factual information, reassurance, and hands-on support with cooking, household organization, as well as support with the new baby and older siblings, so Mom and Dad can grab a nap!

 

I also offer GentleBirth Childbirth Classes and a combination of Evidence Based Birth® and GentleBirth Childbirth classes. As well as one-to-one breastfeeding support. 

​

Coined by the late Jeannine Parvati Baker - the term "birth keeper" refers to a woman who not only supports a mother during pregnancy, the birth and the time after but even more importantly, encourages women to know their rights, empower themselves with knowledge to ensure that we as women are claiming our responsibility, welcoming babies as gently and powerfully into the world as possible.
