Get to Know Me
I'm Kayla, a full spectrum Doula
You may call me Kay for short I am located in Kansas City. Along with being a Doula I am also a Dietary Manager and Seamstress. While working at a hospital as a Dietary Aid I read an article about being a Doula and my heart spoke to me. I fell in love with the birthing process and the support I could provide mothers and families. After receiving my training from the International Doula Institute I was determined to find a way to offer all my skills to my mothers and families. Back Naked Birthing is trained to inform and aid from Conception to Postpartum and everything in between.

Some Why...
BNB (Back Naked Birthing) aims to support mothers and families in a satisfying and empowering birthing experience. We will work together to plan a birth on your terms. As your Doula I will focus on ensuring you are fully informed about labor and delivery, prenatal nutrition, comfort and pain control.
Back Naked focuses on the Mother during the postpartum. Along with helping with home and baby during a mothers healing time we also ensure every new mother, no matter how many births, feels anew and honored. Back Naked honors the Mother with rituals, herbs and fabric. With this sacred work Back Naked is determined to lower the cases of postpartum depression and reconnect the West to the traditions we have forgotten.
The Postpartum
You are to be Celebrated. Back Naked Birthing hand crafts rituals to welcome each New mom into motherhood. These rituals are intended to feed the mind body and spirit as you take on your new journey. This is a sacred and vulnerable time for a mom, Back Naked helps you through your transition. After opening your self physically and spiritually to birth, our rituals will help you close those passageways and heal.
This is my favorite part of the entire birthing process.
