Hello friends!! I wanted to properly introduce myself. My name is Kendall Francis. I am a christian certified birth doula. I serve mama’s in the Fort Mill and Charlotte surrounding areas during pregnancy and postpartum. I am married to my best friend, Collin Francis and we just had the most perfect baby girl, Saylor Grace Francis, born at home on July 31st, 2022. Our hearts are so full! I became a doula because I am so passionate about everything pregnancy and birth but most importantly because I believe women and their families need such a strong support system during this season in their life. I worked in the hospital system for almost 4 years on several different units from ER to maternity, went to nursing school and got my LPN degree all to realize I wanted nothing more than to support women holistically. I believe with all my heart that it is OUR decision as women how our pregnancy journey should turn out and WE have the control, not our providers. That is where I come in as your doula to help educate and advocate for you every step of the way no matter what you decide for your birth. Whether that be at home, at a birthing center or a hospital, I will be by your side. If you would like to connect and talk more about your dream birth feel free to send me a message! I am so excited to meet you and your family!

Prenatal education and support to prepare mentally and physically for child birth. We will have 1 prenatal visit in your home to discuss your birth vision and goals. Birth support through 4 hours after delivery or until completely settled. As your doula I will use my knowledge to help guide you through the birthing process and advocate for you as needed. I will stay with you until you and your family are settled and baby has properly latched. I offer 2 postpartum visits. One the week after birth and another at 6 weeks. I am available for any kind of postpartum support such as breastfeeding / lactation support, newborn care, placenta encapsulation / education, etc. Placenta encapsulation - I offer placenta encapsulation for those who are interested in the benefits of consumption postpartum!
