Hi!

Welcome, I’m really glad you’re here! My goal is for you to learn a little bit about me to gauge if I would be a good fit to support you as your birth doula.

This is a picture of myself and my husband, Clint. We met in college and after dating for a few months, we got married (best decision ever). He is my best friend and best encourager in my doula business.

Growing up, I always had a beautiful interest in pregnancy, birth, motherhood, and babies. Through college, my love supporting other women going through this season grew immensely. Getting married, I learned all about natural family planning. The Lord used what I was learning to help answer other women’s questions about natural family planning. Through that process, I came upon doula work, realizing it was a beautiful extension of educating and walking alongside women not just in their fertility, but also their pregnancy and motherhood journeys. I graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University with business administration which I am so grateful for that education in starting Walker Beside You.

Pursuing doula training, it was the first time in my life I absolutely loved what I was learning. Now, I am a trained birth doula through DONA International and am working towards certification. This certification better helps me serve my clients through continued education and mentorship.

Pregnancy and birth is a beautiful, life changing, exciting, but also scary time. Helping you through your pregnancy and birth would be such an honor. I am passionate about you feeling supported, educated, empowered, and cared for in the best way possible through this season.

Other than my passion for doula work, I love Jesus with all my heart, hiking, fitness, honey lattes, game nights, a shopping spree, and baking sourdough. My husband and I also serve as the Youth Directors at our local church. I feel really grateful to be in this space of supporting families. I firmly believe that doula work allows me to better love the Lord and love His people (Mark 12:30-31).

Your Friend,

Meredith :)
