Kari Verheul, Kari Verheul Doula Care
Hi, I am Kari! I am a wife and mother of 4. My passion for birth work started when I had the privilege of being invited into the birthing room with multiple family and friends. Along with having our own children, it was the most incredible experience. Struck with awe to see the miracle of life unfold in front of my own eyes and to be able to support and encourage these women through it, lit a fire in my heart. I never imagined that I would be able to live this dream. Now as my children are getting older and we are in a different season of life, I am thrilled to begin a new journey to support women and their families in one of life's most memorable moments. I have come to respect how a woman’s body is created to conceive, grow, protect and birth a thriving healthy baby. It is truly incredible to see the courage, strength and endurance a woman draws from through the stages of labour and birth with the right support. Let's chat about your birth desires and needs!

Kirstie Smith, Beloved Light Doula
Hello! I’m Kirstie, a proud mama to two daughters, and Elmsdale is where I call home.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by pregnancy, motherhood, and babies. My journey to becoming a doula began with the support I received from my own doula. My passion is in creating a safe, supportive space - physically, emotionally, and mentally - where birthing people can advocate for the birth experience they envision and where postpartum families can find their footing in parenthood.
As a cisgender, straight white woman, I recognize my privilege and am committed to being a strong ally to marginalized communities. No matter who you are or how you identify, I would be honoured weto support you through your pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum journey.
If you have any questions or would like to book a consult, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Tyana Randall, Your Perinatal Pal
I am pursuing my passion of supporting folks through their prenatal, birth and postpartum stages of life. Having had twins and being the president of the Parents of Multiple Births Association (POMBA) has inspired me to focus most of my business on parents of multiples who seem to have to think about a few more strategies to survive the 4th trimester than what singleton parents do. I have a wealth of knowledge about everything prenatal which also means that I do not limit my services to multiples. I pride myself on offering a tailored experience based on your own needs by offering you a chance to make the best informed decision that fits your preferences. Being based out of East Hants, I offer support locally or in neighbouring areas of Halifax or Truro.

Wanda Cox, Graceful Beginnings Birth Services
Your birth and postpartum period is so important. How you navigate through it can have such a great impact on you, and your family. You deserve to be; listened to, centered in decision making, and supported both emotionally and physically in a way that makes sense to YOU. While birth can be unpredictable, the presence of this care should be consistent. I’d love to help you with that! A little about me: I’ve been a doula since 1999. While the families I serve remain my greatest source of learning, I’m always exploring new ways to serve my clients. In addition to being a Certified Birth and Postpartum doula, I teach high-quality Evidence-Based Birth® childbirth classes, I am a Certified Lactation Educator (CAPPA), Certified Infant Massage Instructor (IAIM) and a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Instructor (LCCE). I also train Birth Doulas and train Infant Massage Instructors as well! Explore my website for more information on my offerings. I’m looking forward to exploring how we might work together!
