Hi! My name is Shaniah! I'm a certified birth doula through COPE (Certified Perinatal Educator Training) and live in the Minneapolis area. I have always had a passion for working with families and children and came to birthwork through my time interning and working at Everyday Miracles as the office and education coordinator from 2019-2021. I started out my birthwork journey in the HCMC on-call doula program as an on-call doula and have since ventured out to working with clients individually because I enjoy being able to build long-term relationships and connections with clients. I have a Bachelor's degree in sociology and social justice with a concentration in reproductive justice and I consider knowledge and evidenced-based information to be foundational to how I approach doula work. As your doula I will always be honest and authentic and continue to educate myself so that I can provide you the best support. I always consider myself to be a student and a teacher and will work to provide you with the resources and information you need to make the best choices for you.
