Empowered Beginnings
Doula Support, LLC
Empowered Beginnings provides personalized and caring doula support for families in SW Michigan. My passion is supporting families during pregnancy, labor and delivery. I am a certified, community-based doula. I am also a certified VBAC/Caesarean doula and a trained NICU doula working on my NICU certification, so I am able to provide NICU and preemie support. I am currently accepting clients due in February and May through 2027. I limit the number of clients I accept so I can offer individualized support to families. If you are looking for doula support or just have a question, please reach out to me. I would love to meet with you!!
I am a Medicaid provider and accept Aetna, Molina, McLaren, Meridian and United Health Care insurance plans.
NEW!!!-Employer sponsored United Health Care is now covering doula support. Check with your insurance to see if you have this benefit.
I look forward to meeting you and sharing how a doula can support you!
