About Michelle

A Calling to Care

Postpartum and infant care support, rooted in faith and grounded in evidence-based practice.

Michelle, Certified Postpartum and Infant Care Doula

Hi, I'm Michelle.

Supporting families during the postpartum season is more than my work — it's my calling. I saw firsthand how much a new mother needs someone steady beside her: not just an extra pair of hands, but a presence that says, "You're doing this well, and you don't have to figure it all out alone." That's the doula I set out to become, and it's the heart behind Vance Co. Doula Services.

My Christian faith shapes the way I show up for every family I serve. I believe each baby is a gift, and that caring for a new parent in those early, tender weeks is a quiet form of ministry — one built on patience, humility, and genuine compassion rather than judgment.

"He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young." Isaiah 40:11, KJV

My goal in every home I enter is simple: to help you rest, to help you heal, and to help you feel confident in the parent you're becoming. I bring you information, not opinions — because every family's path through the newborn season looks a little different, and mine isn't to tell you which way is right. It's to walk alongside you while you find yours.

Whether it's a quiet overnight shift so you can sleep, gentle guidance on feeding and soothing, or simply a listening ear when the days feel long, I'm honored to be part of your family's story during one of its most meaningful chapters.
