About Me

More than support—
presence.

I became a doula because I believe birth experiences matter deeply. The way someone feels during birth can stay with them for years—and I wanted to be the kind of support that helps people feel calm, respected, and empowered in those moments.

I'm a Cincinnati-based doula supporting individuals and families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. My approach is grounded in compassion, evidence-based information, and unwavering belief in your ability to make the right choices for you.

Outside of birth work, I value calm spaces, meaningful connection, and slowing down enough to truly be present. Whether I'm spending quiet time at home, reading, or caring for the people around me, I believe support begins with presence.

How I Support You

Support that meets you where you are.

Birth Support

Physical, emotional, and informational support through your birth experience. I'm by your side from early labor through delivery.

Postpartum Support

Compassionate care as you heal, bond, and adjust to life with your baby. You deserve support beyond the birth.

Consultations

Personalized guidance to help you feel prepared, confident, and empowered before, during, and after birth.

My Approach

You deserve to feel safe in your birth.

01

Birth is not just a medical event—it's a sacred transition.

02

Every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and held.

03

Knowledge is power. Preparation is peace.

04

You know your body. I help you trust it.

Calm, Grounded Support

I strive to create an environment where you feel safe enough to exhale. My role is not to overwhelm you with information, but to help you feel steady, informed, and supported as you move through your experience.

Advocacy & Education

I believe informed choices create confidence. I support clients by helping them understand options, ask questions, and feel empowered in their decisions.

Presence Over Pressure

Birth support should never feel rushed or performative. I believe in meeting people where they are and offering support that feels calm, attentive, and personal.

“My role is not to make decisions for you—it's to hold space so that you can make them with clarity and confidence.”

— Erika Harrison

If you're looking for calm, grounded support through pregnancy, birth, or postpartum, I'd love to connect with you.

Words from Families I’ve Supported

: Erika was exactly what I needed. She kept me calm, advocated for me in the room, and made me feel like I could do it. I truly could not have gotten through my birth without her.

Why Having a Doula Matters

Doulas matter because continuous support can improve the birth experience, reduce certain interventions, support informed decisions-making, and help birthing people feel heard, especially in a maternal health system where Black women continue to face unacceptable risks.
