This is your journey—and Erica is honored to walk alongside you.

I am a certified full-spectrum doula with over 30 years of experience in early childhood development, childbirth education, and family support. My training through CVCC Community College, Johnson C. Smith University, DONA International, and Lamaze International informs my evidence-based approach to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care.

As a wife and mother of three, I have personally experienced the challenges of childbirth and recovery, including unmedicated births, postpartum hemorrhage, and depression. These experiences inspired my commitment to ensuring no family feels alone or unsupported during such a transformative time.

I am dedicated to providing compassionate, continuous support from pregnancy through postpartum recovery. My services include birth planning, labor support, postpartum care, and peer lactation guidance.

Originally from Hickory, North Carolina, I now serve families throughout the Charlotte area and surrounding communities. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey to a confident, empowered birth and postpartum experience.
