Greetings, everyone! I'm Bonney Burton, a birth doula, childbirth educator, and breastfeeding consultant trained by DONA International. My educational background has equipped me with innovative teaching methods, enabling me to educate new families about the birthing process in creative ways. Drawing from my experience as an elementary teacher, I approach every situation with calmness and patience. My guiding philosophy revolves around empowering and educating birthing families, fostering confidence in navigating the stages before, during, and after birth. I firmly believe that this empowerment contributes to positive birthing outcomes for all my clients. While I'm currently based in the NCR, I am open to travel as needed. As an active duty service member's spouse, affectionately known as "B," I am blessed with three delightful children who bring immense joy to our lives. Witnessing my kids engage in sports is a cherished aspect of parenthood for me. During my leisure time, I indulge in reading, savoring nature, especially at the beach, and relishing good food. I am excited about the prospect of collaborating with you on your birthing journey.

Beyond my formal education, I have dedicated myself to understanding and implementing trauma-informed care practices.

Hi! My name is Chaya! I’m a mom of 3, full spectrum doula, photographer, placenta encapsulation specialist, and student midwife. I dove deep into birthwork 5 years ago after the birth of my daughter (19y). I was so shocked at how the level of care in the US, was far behind other countries. I wanted to serve, educate, and provide wholeheartedly to my clients. I love to learn and educate, myself. I believe in autonomy and full informed consent, so rest assured, you’ll always have my guidance but full on support for whatever decisions you decide are best for you!

Hey there! I'm Jenn Carlson, your friendly neighborhood doula! I call Springfield, VA home, where I live with my husband, Eddie—a rock musician who moonlights as a film critic. (Or maybe it’s the other way around? Either way, there's a lot of passionate reviews in my house!). I spent over two decades as an IT pro and a stage manager before diving headfirst into my most exciting production: raising two amazing daughters. Both of their births were high-drama—think less "rom-com" and more "medical thriller." But those experiences sparked a fire in me to help other women feel empowered during labor, and thus began my journey as a doula. Since 2013, I've been lucky enough to attend over 700 births and help nearly 300 new moms recover through the magical art of placenta encapsulation (yes, it’s a thing and it’s awesome). I'm a CBI and DONA Trained, Madriella Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, a Childbirth Educator, an AHA Infant and Pediatric First Aid and CPR instructor, a certified Reiki practitioner, and a placenta encapsulation specialist. Whew, that’s a mouthful! My goal? To be whatever my clients need. Natural-minded or more into the medical approach, I’m here to make sure you have the birth experience you want—with all the options on the table. My definition of a successful birth? One where the mom feels respected, empowered, and ready to write her own birth story, no matter how her baby arrives. Because education is key, I teach breastfeeding, infant CPR, newborn care, and childbirth classes. I've got experience with Bradley and Hypnobirthing techniques, and I bring along my trusty rebozo and TENS unit to help families through labor. I also have special training to support moms who have experienced trauma or loss, and a big, soft spot for high-risk mothers like me who need to know they have options. So whether you’re looking for a bit of guidance, a lot of support, or just someone to laugh with while you figure it all out—I’m here for you!

My name is Traequanda Brock and my interest in birth and postpartum doula work came about during my graduate studies in the social work program. I have been in the social work field since 2011 and graduated from Howard University with my Master of Social Work degree. I have always been passionate about equity, especially for those who are marginalized. I learned of the disparity among black women/black birthing persons and the rate at which they weren’t surviving due to birth related complications, that are completely preventable when given the right care. As I learned the huge impact doulas could have on the life of black women/black birthing persons, I knew where my calling was leading me. I am trained through the National Black Doula Association as a birth and postpartum doula. I know that my purpose is to be of service to others and that so happens to be in this field. My interest is for birthing persons to get back in touch with their bodies and all that it can do. This looks like, trusting yourselves and tapping into your intuition, nurturing your mind, body, and soul; with the nutrients you feed it, exercise, meditation, ancestral traditions; as well as leaning on your supports through this beautiful experience.
