Aysha-Samon Stokes

Full Spectrum Doula

About Me

Hi, I'm Aysha! I'm a mom, teacher, and doula who lives and breathes this work. As a C-section momma, VBAC momma, and water birth mama, I've walked many different paths in my own birthing journey, and each experience has shaped how I show up for the families I serve. This work is truly my calling.

I'm a full-time mom who loves the life I live, balancing motherhood while finding time to love on and find myself, and continuing to care for the world around me.

Practice Philosophy

I support moms in the way they want to be supported. I don't push my own ideology onto families; instead, I listen closely to what you want and provide you with evidence-based information so you can make the best decisions for your family. My approach is centered on your autonomy, your intuition, and your self-advocacy.

I believe you know your body and your baby best, and my role is to support you in honoring that wisdom. I also bring ancestral care into the birth space, because birth is not just a medical event, it's a sacred, ancestral experience that connects you to the generations before you.

Whether you're planning a hospital birth, home birth, VBAC, or anything in between, I'm here to walk beside you with respect, understanding, and genuine care. Overall, my goal is to honor your story and your choices, so you feel empowered every step of the way.
