Thank you for your interest in my labor support services. Azriyelle Doula Services was founded in 2017 to support women during birth and to meet the growing need for labor support in our community. As a doula, I provide reassurance and perspective and assist women (as well as her partner) before, during and after childbirth by providing physical assistance (including but not limited to - relaxation techniques, soothing touch, positioning and other comfort techniques), emotional support and information needed to help make informed decisions as they arise.

 

It is now widely recognized that choosing to add a labor support person to one’s birth team can yield many positive benefits. A woman’s memories of her birth experiences last a lifetime and can have powerful effects on her self- esteem and confidence. I am committed to helping women and couples feel empowered and supported as they experience this life changing event.

​

It is my goal to help mothers learn to trust their beautiful, strong bodies and to trust in the birth process.  The moment that a baby is born is joyous, magical and wondrous, and it is my wish for mothers and their partners to experience the birth of their babies as fully as possible.

 

It would be an honor to have the opportunity to share this time with you. I will work to support you in birth awareness, where you feel confident, informed, and surrounded with care, love and respect.

 

Warmest regards,

Akilah Lindsey
