About me

Terri Schelkoph (CD)DONA, HCHD My Name is Terri, and I am a trained birth doula through DONA International, A Heavenly Welcome Practitioner. I currently reside in the south metro with my husband Jon for 19 years and our six delightfully boisterous children. Through the birth of my own children, I recognized the value of knowing my options, feeling educated in the decisions I was making, and being empowered to start my journey of parenthood. I understood that a new mom can pendulum swing between feeling confident and secure one moment, and self doubting and and insecure the next. I have a passion for being a mama’s biggest cheerleader, encouraging them to be who they were designed to be. As a Mama of Six, my experiences inspired me to educate, serve and encourage other mamas during the beauty and struggle of pregnancy and childbirth. Doula Mama is the name my children picked out, and it is quite fitting 🙂 I love Jesus, my husband Jon, and my children. I am passionate about helping other women have the best pregnancy, labor and delivery as possible. Outside of birth work you can find me with my nose in a good book, drinking copious amounts of coffee, homeschooling my children, enjoying sweet friendships, watching Vikings games with my husband, or serving at my wonderful church. Additional Certifications and Trainings: Advanced VBAC trained doula through The VBAC link, and a Hypnobabies® Childbirth Hypnosis Doula and am trained in using the tens unit.
