🌿 Birth Doula Services in Western Wisconsin & Twin Cities

Compassionate • Evidence-Based • Culturally Aware Support for Your Birth Journey

Welcome! My name is Kayoua “Kay” Yang, a certified birth doula serving families across Western Wisconsin, Hudson, Baldwin, River Falls, Woodbury, and the Twin Cities metro. With 2.5+ years of hands-on doula experience and 50+ births attended, I support moms and families with emotional, physical, and informational care from pregnancy through postpartum.

As a Gilligan Guide Certified Doula and Body Ready Method Certified professional, I’m trained to help you feel confident, prepared, and supported physically and mentally so you can experience birth with peace, strength, and clarity.

Whether this is your first baby, your VBAC, twins, or a repeat birth — my goal is to honor your unique preferences and help you feel empowered every step of the way.

Why Choose Me as Your Doula?

✔ 50+ Births Attended

Experience across hospitals, birth centers, home births, inductions, natural births, VBACs, epidural births, precipitous births, twin births, and culturally diverse families.

✔ Evidence-Based + Body-Ready Training

My Body Ready Method Certification helps you prepare your body for birth with alignment, functional movement, and comfort techniques that support optimal baby positioning.

✔ Gilligan Guide Certified

This equips me to guide moms through mental, emotional, and practical strategies so birth feels safe, grounded, and supported—not overwhelming.

✔ Holistic, Christian & Culturally Respectful

I’ve supported families from many cultural backgrounds, including Hmong, Lao, Karen, Somali, African American, and multi-ethnic families.
