About me

I am a professional labor doula and childbirth educator. I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Georgia. I am a dedicated and compassionate labor doula, committed to empowering women and families throughout their pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum journey. With a background in mental health and a passion for supporting expectant mothers, I bring a wealth of knowledge, experience, and empathy to my role as a doula. My calming demeanor and reassuring presence help to alleviate anxiety and promote a sense of calm during what can be an intense and transformative experience. I have called North Georgia home for the last 18 years. I’ve been married to my husband Adam for 5 years. We have two boys under the age of four. In my spare time I enjoy volunteering on my church’s hospitality team, gardening, and spending time outside with my family. I became interested in becoming a doula after experiencing the benefits of hiring a doula for my second birth. I find great joy in walking with women in their motherhood journey.

I genuinely cannot begin to say how thankful I am for Alexis and how she walked with us through our journey to parenthood. We had two prenatal meetings where she met with my husband and I to talk through our birth wishes and just get to know us as people. She focused on getting to know the "why" behind our birth wishes and not just the "what." Her background in counseling was such a perfect fit with her doula services as she helped us walk through the crazy emotions that surround birth and becoming a parent. We talked through how I would feel emotionally if my birth didn't go "according to plan;" we talked about how our marriage was doing in the midst of the pregnancy. Her birth class was super helpful in it made us informed and prepared about what would and could happen during birth. She did check ins after every OB appointment to see how things were going and see how I was feeling every step of the way. When my water broke, she checked in every few hours to keep up with my early labor and give us tips for the early contractions and then met us at the hospital when I was in active labor. I had all back labor, and she and my husband took turns giving me counter pressure on my back for hours. She helped guide me on when to switch positions and try new tactics. She was even there to help with little things like moving our car because it was still parked out front. After our son was born, Alexis stayed with us a few more hours until we were fully settled in our recovery room. She did a follow up meeting with us about a week after delivery and just sat with us and helped me process my birth experience which thankfully was everything that I wanted, but it's still a lot to process. Alexis set up a meal train for us and even brought a meal herself. She texted and checked in with how I was healing, how I was doing emotionally, and just how I was adjusting to motherhood every few days after birth and then weekly for the first two months postpartum. My husband and I genuinely felt like we weren't in this alone, that we had a guide walking through it with us. It was so nice that my husband could support me emotionally and didn't have to worry about having all of the knowledge to specifically support me during labor - he could focus on being my husband and not my coach. We just felt so supported and encouraged the entire journey. She constantly went above and beyond what a typical doula would do. I cannot rave about Alexis enough, and our plan is to have her present for all future childbirths.

I made the decision to hire a doula a bit late in my pregnancy and was concerned I wouldn’t be able to find someone with availability on such short notice. I interviewed several others before meeting with Alexis and I knew instantly she was the perfect doula for me. From the very beginning, she provided me with the personalized support I needed to help me through the unique challenges and emotions I experienced during my pregnancy and delivery. She was there for me every step of the way and I can truly say I, and my husband, could not have done this without her! In addition to her wealth of knowledge about the labor and delivery process, she advocated for me at the hospital when I couldn’t/wouldn’t speak up for myself. Alexis also goes above and beyond when it comes to post-partum support. She checked in on me regularly and talked through any feelings or worries I was having. Honestly, I was sad after our final post-partum visit because I truly enjoyed having her as my support person throughout my pregnancy, birth, and post-partum journey!

As a first-time mother navigating through the pregnancy and childbirth, I couldn't have asked for a better support person. Alexis always listened to my concerns and anxieties while providing me with options for my family. I always felt empowered to make decisions because of the knowledge Alexis had during this process. I ended up having a c-section birth and my baby went to the transition unit for a few hours due to low oxygen. Hospital policy did not allow doulas in the operation room; however, Alexis came immediately after I was transitioned to post-op while my husband was with our baby. Alexis had so much empathy for the situation and encouraged me while I was without my family. At our request, she spent time with our family once baby was in our postpartum room at the hospital and took some beautiful pictures. She even brought some delicious lactation treats! After going home with baby and husband, Alexis checked in on me often. She was able to help me navigate through my baby blues by validating my feelings and helping me realize the extreme emotions would pass. I will absolutely be asking Alexis to be at my next birth.

Alexis was the Doula during the birth of my first child in February. Having her there to advocate for me and what I wanted to achieve was priceless. She was extremely thorough and walked me through every case scenario and how I would want to respond to it while my mind was clear. Then was there to keep me calm and motivated to achieve the birth I wanted to achieve. She advocated for my wishes when I couldn’t advocate for myself. She kept everyone calm, when they didn’t know how to handle seeing me in pain. I am forever grateful for what she has done for my family. You won’t regret having her by your side.
