Our Story
Hi, and Welcome!
Meet Taylor: Taylor is the president of the Lansing Doula Network, a co-founder for Better Birth Jackson and on the board for Willow Tree Family Center.
​
Taylor became a certified labor and bereavement doula through Stillbirthday, and is also a bereavement doula through PAIL Advocates. After my own loss, having the space to help others through these difficult times has been so precious to me. I am honored to be apart of this space. I have also completed the birth doula DONA training workshop, which also has childbirth education and lactation for doulas. I have also completed my training as a yoga instructor which included 200 hours of training, as well as a certificate specific to prenatal yoga. I teach classes at Willow Tree Family Center and am certified at Birth Arts International for childbirth education. I have loved photography for as long as I can remember and I finally have been able to bring the two things I love together. In addition, I provide placenta encapsulation for anyone interested in the wonderful benefits that come from ingesting your placenta.

As a biracial woman and a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, Abigail is passionate about supporting all individuals, especially those of minority groups. As a doula, she finds it most important for the person giving birth to have their wishes respected and their voices lifted up.
