Birth Doula
she/her
Shelly Rhodes
Special skills:
Logistics/preparing for birth (birth bags, supplies, etc.)
Documenting with iPhone photos/videos
Labor positioning
BIRTH Secret weapon:
A small handheld fan, calming essential oils, and affirmations. Those little comforts can make such a big difference during labor.
My doula superpower:
Calm, grounding support through breathing, reassurance, and helping you feel safe and empowered in the moment. Sometimes simply helping a mother relax her body and breathe through contractions can completely change the energy in the room.
Scout’s honor promise:
My approach will always be rooted in love, patience, and advocacy. I am here not only to support you, but to gently guide and stand in alignment with what’s best for you, your baby, and your family. Whether you need reassurance, education, emotional support, or simply someone to hold space during both the beautiful and challenging moments, you can trust that you are in caring and capable hands.
How do they spend their days off:
On my days off, I love spending quality time with my grandbabies, going on 5K runs with my husband, relaxing outdoors with a good book, and continuing to educate myself so I can be the best doula possible for the families I serve.
