When my wife, Ebony and I look back at the birth of our precious little girl, a special name will stand out in that story: Sharea Jenkins.
From the moment BEFORE we even began working with Sharea, it was obviously not just a job for her — it was a calling. She wasn’t just going to “support” us during the birthing process; she would walk with us through one of our most vulnerable moments.
Sharea brought a calm knowledge...a level of presence honestly changing the entire experience for us. During labor, when that element of "unknown" easily creates the substance of anxiety, she grounded the room. She knew when to step in with guidance; when to reassure, advocate, and just simply create space so my wife could focus. As a husband, it meant so much to me because she didn’t just support my wife — but our entire dynamic.
What really separates her from others is the care after the baby arrived. Follow-up sessions were just as impactful as the birth support itself! She checked in, continued to educate us, answered questions we didn’t even know we’d have, and made sure we both were recovering physically, emotionally and even spiritually. That level of continued care showed us she genuinely cared; about the families she advocates, not just the delivery day.
If you are considering working with a doula and want someone who is knowledgeable, compassionate, steady under pressure, and truly invested in your well-being,
...find yourself another doula. Sharea...is ours..
We don't care that her name has 'share' in it, she is for us alone....get over this. I jest...and digress.
We couldn't speak of her highly enough. Was instrumental in making one of the most important days of our lives feel robust, invaluable, and unforgettable.
Sharea is now family. As such, our family is forever grateful.
