Teneia is a certified postpartum doula, mother, former special education teacher, and hairstylist with a passion for supporting families as they navigate the early days of parenthood. With degrees in Elementary Education and Special Education, she brings patience, compassion, and a deep understanding of child development to the families she serves.

Teneia's journey into birthwork began while supporting someone very close to her through postpartum depression, anxiety, and preeclampsia. Walking alongside her during such a challenging and transformative time showed her the profound impact that compassionate support can have on a family. The experience filled her heart with purpose and inspired her to become a postpartum doula.

She believes that children are our future and that every family deserves the support, encouragement, and resources needed to thrive. While the journey into parenthood can come with challenges and unexpected twists, Teneia believes that with the right support, families can overcome anything. Her goal is to help parents feel cared for, confident, and never alone during the postpartum period.

One of Teneia's favorite parts of her work is witnessing the arrival of a new baby and getting to know the unique personality each little one brings into the world. She finds joy in helping families adjust to their new normal while celebrating the beauty and wonder of those early days.

Known for her positive outlook and contagious laughter, Teneia believes that joy is an important part of healing and connection. Families often appreciate her calm presence, encouraging spirit, and ability to find light even during challenging moments.

When she's not supporting families, Teneia enjoys creating custom T-shirts with her Cricut, styling hair, traveling, spending time with family and friends, worshiping at church, and relaxing by the water. Wherever she goes, she brings a warm smile, a listening ear, and often a comforting cup of flavored tea close at hand.
