*A portion of my fee from any doula services goes directly to W.I.S.E. Community Doulas, a grassroots organization in Charlotte whose mission is to improve the maternal and infant health outcome and disparities of women of color, by fostering a community that advocates, educates, empowers and supports pregnant people, their growing families, and the professionals who work with them, during the childbirth continuum.
