Hello! My name is Amanda Millsap. I’m a midwive’s assistant turned doula. I think my experience is a little bit unique in the fact that I attended around 60 home births before I ever helped parents out in a hospital setting. I have since become quite familiar with the hospitals in Chattanooga and Dalton, and have worked with many providers in these areas. I have a compiled list of other providers also. For example, chiropractors, pelvic floor therapist, massage therapist and more. It is my goal to provide you with education surrounding parenthood, help you and your family navigate through unfamiliar territory, and hopefully help you feel confident in your decisions. I look forward to becoming a member of your team!

With her knowledge and expertise in both the emotional and medical aspects of motherhood, I am committed to providing exceptional care and guidance to women during this transformative time in their lives. My journey as a doula began when she personally experienced the profound impact of having a supportive birth companion during the birth of her own child. Inspired by the invaluable role her doula played in ensuring a positive and empowering birthing experience, so I decided to pursue a career in doula care and holistic support for mothers. Having also obtained certification as a medical assistant, I possesses a deep understanding of the medical procedures and terminology associated with childbirth. This unique combination of skills allows her to bridge the gap between emotional support and medical knowledge, providing mothers with a comprehensive and holistic approach to their care.
