Sonya Kearse
Sonya considers herself incredibly fortunate to be a devoted wife and mother who has experienced the joy of positive birthing outcomes and the privilege of raising beautiful daughters, now extending to the realm of grandmotherhood. The remarkable birth journey of her daughter, supported by a compassionate midwife and doula, ignited her passion for the doula profession. Motivated by a commitment to community well-being and inspired by the profound impact of doula care, Sonya found her calling in advocating for mothers. Witnessing the stark statistics surrounding maternal and child health crises, she decided to channel her efforts into making a difference. Above all, Sonya's ultimate aspiration is to approach her work with love, laboring alongside mothers while providing education, empowerment, and unwavering advocacy for both mother and child. She strives to create an environment where every mother, under the care of Sonya, experiences unforgettable sacred moments during and after childbirth.
