About me

Hi! My name is Witley Smith! I started my birth doula journey in November of 2024. Ever since I was young I have always loved helping mothers care for their babies. Once I learned about birth doulas I knew that is what I was meant to do! I want to help mamas have a joyous birth experience. I have completed the training for my Birth Doula Certification along with my Lactation Support Certification. I am currently in the process of becoming a DONA International affiliate. I am trained, but I need experience of being the primary Birth Doula in order to complete my application with DONA. I am looking for mamas who are willing to let me serve them, and support them through their beautiful birth. My services will be discounted as I am a new doula looking for experience. I chose the name Serving Dreams Birth Doula Services, because I believe every mother should be served the birth she has always dreamed. No need or want for a mother is too small or frivolous. I want to make my mamas feel comforted, supported, and empowered. My favorite quote that I have learned through my birth doula journey is "You grow the baby you were meant to birth".

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Witley. I have known her for years and have seen her mature into a strong, determined and intelligent young woman. She has helped me with all 5 of my children throughout the years. My last child was born 6.5 weeks premature and she was there whenever I needed her help. She is amazing with children of all ages especially newborns. I would highly recommend her knowing the training she has gone through to become a certified birth doula. She would be my choice if I were having anymore children!
