Bellies to Blessings Doula Services

My name is Emma Williams, I am a Certified Labor Doula and Certified Postpartum and Infant Care Doula. I am a mother of five...two young adults, two teens, and an elementary kiddo, and Gammie to one toddler! I grew up in Northwest Florida, and have a background in Music and Early Childhood Development and Education. 
 

When I was pregnant with and gave birth to my first two children, I was young and did not have a good local support system, and found myself agreeing to unnecessary interventions and procedures that ultimately left me feeling powerless and unsatisfied with my birthing experiences. With each birth after, I became more and more educated and confident in my decisions, and by my fifth birth I had what I call my “dream birth”, where I felt empowered and fully supported. After that final birth I decided that I wanted to help as many women as possible to feel educated, supported, and empowered in their births and transition into motherhood, and so in 2018 I became a labor doula, and in 2019 I became a Postpartum Doula! A few years in I decided that I wanted to widen and update my scope of knowledge, and so in 2023 I cross-trained and became certified through a second organization for Labor, and in 2024 for Postpartum and Infant Care.
