Meet Tymeka

Tymeka is an International Doula Institute trained postpartum and birth doula on our team. She is experienced with supporting families with multiple children, as well as families who are having their first. She is also experienced with both daytime and overnights. Families love how she provides lactation support, prenatal/postnatal nutrition guidance, as well as helping babies sleep and get on a good routine. Families describe her as very easy to connect with and an amazing safe space and brings joy to others.

Prior to supporting families as a postpartum doula, Tymeka was a nanny and newborn care specialist for 10 years. She has always wanted to help mothers and families from the time she can remember. When her friends started to have babies, she noticed there wasn’t a lot of support for African American women and families. This inspired her to become a doula. She aims to help as many women have a safe and healthy experience in pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

When Tymeka isn’t supporting families, she loves to attend concerts and try new foods!
