Meet Kendall L.

Kendall is a well loved and experienced labor and postpartum doula certified through Cornerstone Birthworks. As a doula she cultivates a compassionate and judgment-free atmosphere so each family can receive personalized and holistic care. She supports vaginal and Cesarean births and has worked in the hospital and birth center setting. She is experienced with supporting both medicated and unmedicated births. Families describe her as kind, compassionate, a natural caregiver, professional and knowledgeable.

As a postpartum doula, Kendall is a natural caretaker and has supported families for as long as she can remember. As a teen she was always trusted and provided childcare for her family and neighbors often. She knows welcoming a new member in the family is so special and she’s lucky to be able to ease the transition.

Kendall became a doula because of her deep passion for working with growing families during one of the most transformative and sensitive times in their lives. She believes everyone deserves to have their autonomy respected and uplifted at every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum regardless of their circumstances. She supports members of her community so they can approach their birth and recovery with confidence. It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to make a positive impact for those creating the next generation.

Kendall is also a public health graduate student focusing on maternal and child health. Her goal is to empower communities to advocate for solutions that meet their specific needs before, during, and after birth. Prior to pursuing her Master’s degree, Kendall worked as an administrator at Cook County Health and volunteered as a sex educator in Chicago Public Schools.

In her free time, she enjoys biking along the lake front, baking, and attending book clubs.
