Bio
Hi! I’m Kieashia AKA @YourBlackDoula! I’m a Birth Doula and founder of Elephant Song Doula Services in Pittsburgh, PA. I am an incurable goofball with a passion for teaching and sharing culturally relevant childbirth education. I chose birth work because of my love for empowering and supporting Expectant Parents and their families. My own Birth Experience opened my eyes to the many things that need to change in order for Black Mamas and their babies to have safer birth outcomes. ❤️
