Laporcha Foster - Birth & Postpartum Doula

About Laporcha

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

It is normal to feel anxious, scared, nervous, have doubts, and have fears when it comes to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. A doula is a professional labor support person. I offer trained, continuous support during labor and birth, including home birth and hospital birth. I believe that every women who wants a doula with them during and after their birth should have one. I want to help you get the best and more empowered pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience.

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do. Her light coming in helped me TRULY calm down and start enjoying my pregnancy experience. I truly recommend any and everyone to definitely have Ms. Foster for their doula.

Ms. Foster is very supportive in my pregnancy journey. She is always a call away if I have a need or concern. For example, when I was upset about my baby not moving, and she came and did her magic. Whatever she did got my son to move and assured me everything is going good. She attends doctor appointments with me, and is emotionally supportive.
