Shay Sherrill - Your Premier Doula
No matter which package you choose, you’re getting a doula who knows exactly how to show up when it matters most. With more than a decade of hands-on experience, Shay brings a level of skill, steadiness, and instinct you simply can’t fake. She’s worked with families across every background, every dynamic, and every version of “new normal,” and she walks in ready to support without hesitation or judgment.
Shay is trained across the full spectrum of postpartum care, recovery support, newborn care, feeding guidance, sleep foundations, and the household systems that keep life from falling apart in the early months. She doesn’t guess. She doesn’t wing it. She guides with evidence, experience, and the kind of grounded presence that helps parents breathe again.
The difference between packages isn’t the quality of care, it’s the depth and duration of the partnership. Whether you want a powerful start to your postpartum journey or a long-term anchor through the newborn-to-infant transition, you’ll have a doula who is all-in for your family from day one.
If you’re looking for someone who shows up fully, adapts quickly, and supports wholeheartedly, you’re in the right place.

What Our Clients Say
“Working with Shay Sherrill as our postpartum doula has been an incredible comfort during my first few weeks as a new mother. She listens with genuine care to my struggles with breastfeeding and labor recovery, always offering thoughtful advice and support. Shay is wonderfully gentle and attentive with our daughter; she often helps her feed efficiently during the night and settle into long, peaceful stretches of sleep. Shay has helped us understand what a successful night with a newborn truly looks like, and
she’s always willing to offer guidance and technique tips whenever we ask. She also supports my breastfeeding journey in so many practical ways, whether that means bringing my daughter to me to nurse or helping with pump parts in the middle of the night. I’m especially grateful for how flexible and respectful she is of the routines I’m trying to establish as a first-time mom. Her presence has brought us reassurance, rest, and confidence, and we’re so thankful to have her with us during this transition.”
Sonia & Sarim
“From the moment we brought our baby home from the hospital, Shay was there for us with the most gentle, loving, and calm presence. She supported us through those overwhelming first days with newborn care, breastfeeding guidance, and overnight help that made all the difference. Shay has such a natural way with babies — completely unbothered by crying, endlessly patient, and full of warmth. She not only cared for our little one with so much love, but she also cared for me as a new mom, bringing things to help with my recovery and reminding me to rest and heal.
Even now, a year later, Shay continues to support our family, and we honestly can’t imagine this journey without her. She’s more than a doula — she’s become part of our family. I can’t recommend her enough to any parent looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and truly nurturing postpartum support.”
