Not Just One, But a Whole Village of Care
At Doulas Due, we walk with families through every stage, from bump to baby and beyond.
Built to serve the women who are used to leading, and are now ready to be held.
We support intentional, high-achieving parents, leaders, professionals, and visionaries, through one of life’s most vulnerable seasons, so they feel held, informed, and never alone.
How It Started
Our founder, Portia, didn’t set out to become a doula.
She became one out of necessity.
After experiencing a traumatic birth and overwhelming postpartum period, Portia realized how deeply broken support systems were, especially for Black women. She didn’t just want to process her experience. She wanted to change it.
So she did.
What began as a personal mission quickly evolved into a professional calling. Portia trained extensively in birth work, lactation education, and postpartum care, but more importantly, she committed herself to learning how to show up for families the way she wished someone had shown up for her.
And Then She Built the Team She Once Needed
Portia knew her mission was bigger than one person. That’s why Doulas Due was never meant to be a solo practice.
We are a collective of brilliant, educated, and certified doulas, each bringing not only specialized training in lactation and postpartum care, but also rich backgrounds in fields like healthcare, education, mental health, and more.
We blend skill with heart to provide care that’s as informed as it is intentional.
Together, we’ve walked alongside hundreds of families through birth, postpartum recovery, feeding journeys, and emotional healing.
We provide continuity. We bring clarity. And we deliver care that honors the moment and rises to meet your highest expectations.
