Birth and Bokeh Doulas, LLC
We provide labor doula services, childbirth education, birth photography and placenta encapsulation. We support birth in hospital, home and birth center settings. As doulas, we aim to support your individual needs while also preparing you for what to expect realistically for birth and the postpartum period. We understand that each family is unique, and we are prepared to support your family in the choices that you make for yourselves. Our doula support includes support during pregnancy with childbirth education, navigating pregnancy and discomforts, and providing information on local resources. During labor and birth, your doula will be present with you and your partner to assist with guidance and physical coping techniques, nourishment and encouragement.
​
We live in a time that does not give birth proper credit for being the monumental experience that it is, but we are proud to do so.
We are ready to meet you where you are in both life and in labor.
Our service area includes a 1-hour radius of Gainesville, GA. ​​

Meet Our Doulas
Emma Wareham
Certified Labor Doula (ProDoula)
Â
From a young age, I feel as if I've demonstrated a deep nurturing spirit. Whether it was caring for a stray, scraggly dog in my neighborhood or a hummingbird with an injured wing. I'd like to think my empathy and kindness have always shown through. These qualities are the foundation of my work today.
I chose to embrace motherhood early, becoming a proud mom of two. The doula profession captured my interest when I saw a gap in the support available during the duration of my first pregnancy. Recognizing the profound need for compassionate, and dedicated support, I was inspired to become a doula and fill that gap with the same love and care I've always shown.
My personal experience as a mother has given me a unique understanding of the challenges and joys of parenthood. It has definitely shaped my path and fueled my commitment to providing heartfelt care to all the new families I have the honor of meeting.
I hope to be a valuable source of comfort, information, and guidance for you too!

I've had a respect and curiosity for birth since I was a child thanks to a mother that was very open with me. I'm now a mother of three that went 'down the rabbit hole' of pregnancy and birth information during my first pregnancy. Informed decision making and knowing what options are available in all facets of personal health is extremely important to me. People having the freedom to make those decisions for themselves is extremely important to me. There is so much information out there when it comes to pregnancy and birth experiences. It's important that families learn and discuss the options that are available to them. This is where a doula business excels, in educating, not just attending birth.
I enjoy getting to know families and about their cultures and customs as well. I am honored that families allow me along this journey with them, and I am so thankful for the connections I develop with families along the way.
