Homebirth. Hospital birth. Unnassisted birth. Im here for you.
As an intuitive, caring Doula, I provide emotional, educational and physical support during pregnancy, labor and beyond. Whether you’re interested in birth support, postpartum support, breastfeeding advice, I’m here for you. I offer in and out of hospital birth.

"Baby L was born after 30 hours of labor, which Dayna absolutely rocked! Dayna is everything you need to get your baby in your arms. -xoxo Abigail"
I have always been inspired by the strength of women and the miracle of birth. This is why I became a professional Doula in 2017 and am proud to serve women and families throughout the beautiful mountains surrounding Asheville, NC. Every woman deserves to have someone there to guide and assist them in making educated choices about their birth/postpartum journey and to remind them that they can trust the strength of their bodies during this time. I’m here to provide unbiased information and emotional support. Please get in touch to find out more.
