Jai F. in Austin, TX

Your Journey with J

    Practice overview

    I have been working in education and with families for several years, and shifted into the birth work 3 years ago but waited until after experiencing my own birth to actually move beyond the education piece and begin supporting clients. I have completed workshops and trainings through several birthing organizations, as well as currently working with a local non-profit centered around reproductive justice and inclusive birth support. I want everyone to have access to quality care, a positive birthing experience, and feel honored and respected. I serve all families - including single parents. I include your support system or become your support system; whatever is the most in alignment with what you need.

    My doula model of care involves being on the entire journey to and through birth with each client - which is why I do not offer just a birth fee option. For me to truly advocate, empower, and support to the best of my ability that is done by forming a relationship over time. Ideally I would begin support during trimester 2 and support through week ~12 postpartum.

    Care philosophy

    Jai (she/her) is a Black, queer, muva, full spectrum doula, educator, and nature enthusiast with a focus on shifting the way we think about birth, abortion, sex, and wellness by replacing fear and shame with education and empowerment. Consent and autonomy is central to the work that she does with humans of all ages - while centering BIPOC, single, and LGBTQIA+ people. The combination of formal training, mentorship guidance, working with families in various capacities and personal lived experience allows her to provide comprehensive and culturally inclusive support. To Jai, birthwork is social justice work, and her “secret” agenda is to bring wellness to the community through small everyday actions.
