Your Birth Experience Matters.

As women in America we are often taught that birth is scary, dangerous, and the most painful thing we will ever do.

​But what if it can be filled with joy?​

The transition into motherhood is one of the greatest labors of love a woman can experience. It is a journey that transforms not only your body but also your heart and mind. The person you are today, reading this, will not be the same person who holds your baby for the first time. This transformation is profound, and you deserve to be supported and celebrated every step of the way.

The way you bring your little one into the world has the power to shape you in incredible ways. The support you receive, the words spoken to you, and the way you experience this transition all matter deeply. Your body is amazing, capable, and strong—you were made for this. Every life is a miracle, and it is my privilege to walk alongside you, advocating for your wishes and uplifting you through the intense yet beautiful moments of labor.

As your doula, my goal is for you to feel loved, supported, and empowered throughout your birth journey. I provide evidence-based resources to help you make informed choices, ensuring that you feel in control of your experience.

 

You are creating the future within you, and I am honored to support you as you welcome new life.

May your birth be filled with confidence, strength, and joy!

Mikala Cummins

I am a christian doula. I believe every person I come in contact with is loved and created with purpose. As women we were designed to bring life into the world, and that is a beautiful calling. 

 

Birth is a beautiful process that can bring varying challenges. As a DONA trained doula I aim to bring the highest level of care, evidence-based practices, education and support to your family and experience.

​

As a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) mom and someone who has experienced personal birth trauma, I know exactly what it can mean for someone to simply understand. Through my own healing and process of achieving my VBAC I have acquired much education and passion on the subject.

​

If you are considering a VBAC birth or simply wish to learn more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

​

I am originally from Alaska and have lived in Kitsap for over 8 years. My husband and I have four little adventurous boys. I deeply enjoy my nespresso in the morning and spending time with my community of friends and family.

Mikala was at the HBAC (home birth after cesarean) of my second son. Her calm demeanor, paired with the joy and passion she has for birth, is a win-win! I highly recommend her as a doula for anyone hoping to have a natural birth. She's wonderful!
