Ashley Gill

Hi there! I’m Ashley Gill and I’m a labor and postpartum doula. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, Chris, and together we have three amazing boys! I was induced with my first due to preeclampsia, but really loved my experience giving birth and was able to have him vaginally. I proceeded to have two more boys- both also vaginally- and I have grown to love and appreciate the strength and beauty women have to give birth. I believe women should be given the support they want and deserve to have the birth experiences they want. Additionally, having postpartum support after my second baby was instrumental in leading me to birth work. He had tongue and lip ties, which I didn’t experience with my first baby, and I was totally lost in feeling like I was doing a good enough job as a mom. Having postpartum support – although virtual due to COVID- was so helpful and reminded me that I was doing a great job. There is so much about pregnancy and the fourth trimester that can be so lonely and difficult. My goal is to help moms and families feel confident and empowered to grow their families and experience grace along the way. I am passionate about helping moms trust themselves and their babies, learning to thrive and figure out how to move into a new season together.

Amy Emerson

My name is Amy Emerson, and I began my birth work as a Labor and Delivery nurse in 1990. I attended my first doula training in 1993 and again in 1996 and became certified a few years later. I was able to utilize my doula skills as a nurse and later as an independent doula, assisting hundreds of mothers during labor and birth.

I pursued doula training after my first child was born via cesarean section. I went on to have 8 VBAC births myself, with our last one born at home. I consider it a privilege and honor to attend births and share in that moment when a new family member comes into the world. I continue to seek and learn new information and certifications to improve my skills as a doula. I look forward to being a doula for many years to come and would be honored to assist in your birth.

I love supporting women after they are home through postpartum services. I also offer online and in-person childbirth classes with complementary consultation via phone or in-person at completion of classes, TENS Unit rental, Peanut Ball rental for home birth as well as a cloth diaper service.

Hannah Lawrence

I am a mom of 5 in Owasso, OK. My first birth was a twin vaginal delivery with an epidural. I realize now how rare it is to have twins both born vaginally in our area. I was happy at the outcome, but wanted to learn more about birth for our future children. I attended Bradley classes and did a lot more preparing for birth. It was the most empowering event of my life. I have become passionate about birth education and helping women have the beautiful, powerful, births they desire.

I support new families because I’ve seen the difference it makes. Adding a new person to your family is precious, but it is also incredibly difficult. We know that pregnancy and birth are hard, but many new moms think things calm down after that. The first three months of your baby’s life are very challenging. When a family has adequate support, they are able to enjoy this special time and grow closer, stronger. Families without adequate support often succumb to postpartum depression or anxiety. It is not easy for new parents to communicate well, or to express their needs. Having a professional by your side who understands your unspoken necessities and can objectively guide you through this emotional time can avoid or relieve some of the symptoms of postpartum mood disorders. You are becoming parents, a healthy family bond is the best way to start.

Cheryl Wood

My husband and I have raised our own five children who currently range in age from high school to late twenties. I have personally experienced a wide range of birth and postpartum circumstances. These include breastfeeding a baby with a cleft palate as well as pumping and reestablishing milk supply after my own hospitalizations and surgical recoveries. I enjoy walking and yoga for health, exercise and de-stressing.  Along with my husband and our youngest daughter I share my home with a scruffy dog named Lola, two orphaned kittens and a handful of chickens in the backyard.You can find Cheryl at mothersstrength.com

We are involved in a local Tulsa church where I help care for the youngest of our parishioners by volunteering in the nursery. Faith and prayer are an essential part of my daily life, but I am eager to serve families of all (or no) faiths and backgrounds. I’ve completed workshops in Birth and Postpartum Doula Care through DONA International, and am in the process of obtaining certification in both areas. I am also certified in basic Rebozo techniques and in basic life support (CPR) for adults, children and infants. I look forward to assisting families as they navigate pregnancy, childbirth or adoption and the postpartum journey.
