About
Hi, I am Chaka!
As the heart behind Doula With A Purpose, I embrace the role of a nurturing guide in the sacred journey of childbirth and motherhood. With my full spectrum certification as a holistic doula, I intertwine expertise and empathy to support women and families through the intricate tapestry of pregnancy and birth. In the realms of maternity reiki, vaginal steaming, breastfeeding support, advocacy, fertility, and childbirth education, my holistic ethos intertwines the realms of mind, body, and spirit.
Beyond my professional vocation, my own story as a dedicated mother to three children and four bonus blessings fuels my boundless love. My spirit of generosity is evident in my roles as a surrogate mother for two couples, extending my circle of compassion even wider. Each chapter of my personal motherhood journey adds depth to my mission of empowerment and education for women navigating their own paths to parenthood.
My commitment to my calling is unwavering, rooted in a desire to foster connections and resilience in those I serve. Through embracing the transformative essence of motherhood, I welcome the unique challenges and joys that each pregnancy journey unfolds. Guided by love and strengthened by my experiences, I not only share support and encouragement but also discover newfound fortitude within myself, igniting the same spark in others.
In my moments of reprieve, I seek solace and rejuvenation in the simple pleasures of life, from cherished family time to invigorating workouts, serene yoga sessions, nature walks, and the nourishment of insightful reads and relaxing baths. These acts of self-care and introspection not only replenish my own spirit but also enrich my ability to uplift and empower those on their paths to motherhood.
A native of California, I currently call Houston, Texas my home, extending my compassionate care to the surrounding areas with unwavering dedication.
Proud Member of the National Perinatal Task Force, dedicated to supporting mothers and families with compassionate care.
