About Birthing Noire Doula Collective
Birthing Noire Doula Collective was created to provide culturally-centered, evidence-based birth support through a team-based approach — so families never feel alone, rushed, or dismissed during one of the most important experiences of their lives.
Our collective model ensures that every client receives consistent, high-quality care rooted in preparation, advocacy, and trust — no matter which doula from our team is supporting them
Our Philosophy of Care
At Birthing Noire, we believe birth is not something to be managed — it is something to be supported.
Our care is grounded in the understanding that families deserve:
- clear, evidence-based information
- emotional and physical support that adapts to their needs
- advocacy within medical spaces
- and a care team that honors their autonomy
Every doula within our collective upholds the same standards of communication, professionalism, and presence. Our work is collaborative by design, allowing each client to benefit from the shared knowledge and support of the entire team.

Why a Collective Model Matters
Birth is unpredictable — your support should not be. Birthing Noire operates as a collective to ensure:
- continuity of care
- built-in backup support
- aligned values and shared protocols
- reliability beyond a single provider
This structure allows our doulas to show up fully for clients while maintaining balance, sustainability, and excellence in care.
When you choose Birthing Noire, you are choosing a system designed to support both families and birth workers — without burnout, inconsistency, or gaps in care.
Founded by a Nurse. Led With Intention.
Birthing Noire was founded by a registered nurse and birth professional who witnessed firsthand how often Black and Brown families are overlooked, rushed, or unheard within the medical system.
That clinical foundation informs how the collective operates — blending medical understanding with compassionate, client-centered support.
While the founder no longer serves as a primary birth doula, her experience shapes the standards, training, and philosophy that guide the entire team.
Birthing Noire is not built around access to one person — it is built around a shared commitment to care done well.
Our Doulas.
Each doula within the Birthing Noire Collective is carefully selected, trained, and supported to meet our standards of care.
Our team brings together diverse experiences, skill sets, and strengths — united by a shared mission to provide grounded, affirming, and informed support throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum.
Clients are thoughtfully matched with a doula based on their needs, preferences, and availability — ensuring alignment, trust, and continuity of care.
Our Commitment to Families
We are committed to creating birth experiences where families feel:
- informed, not overwhelmed
- supported, not rushed
- seen, not dismissed
Birthing Noire exists to hold space with intention, integrity, and professionalism — every step of the way.
