Hi, my name is Marcia. I'm a dedicated birth professional, wife, and mother hailing from the outskirts of Charlotte, North Carolina. As the founder of The Birthing Bee Doula and Childbirth Education Services, I bring wealth of knowledge and passion to my role as a birth doula and childbirth educator. My personal journey through motherhood has been marked by both joy and heartache. As a mother of two boys and an angel baby, I know firsthand the complexities and emotions that come with the birthing experience. My strength and resilience in the face of my own loss have fueled my unwavering dedication to supporting families through their own unique childbirth journeys. With a deep-rooted belief in the power of holistic and culturally appropriate care, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment for expectant parents. My knowledge of natural remedies, alternative therapies, and culturally sensitive practices allows me to provide comprehensive support that respects and honors each individual's choices and cultural background. I offer invaluable emotional, physical, and informational support to families during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. My compassionate and empathetic nature helps ease anxieties, guide families through the birth process, and provide reassurance every step of the way. My passion for empowering women extends beyond individual support. As a childbirth educator, I'm committed to equipping expectant parents with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions and advocate for their own birth experiences. I understand that education is key to breaking down barriers and ensuring that every person has access to quality, evidence-based care. My commitment to holistic, culturally aware doula support and childbirth education is unmatched. I strive to be a beacon of support and empowerment for expectant parents in the Charlotte area and beyond. With my support families can navigate the beautiful journey of childbirth with confidence and grace.
