Lauren G. | Birth Doula in Nashville, TN

Steadfast Birth Services

    Practice overview

    My name is Lauren Glass and I am a labor and birth doula. I grew up outside of St. Louis, Missouri, but I am proud to call Nashville, Tennessee home after living here for over 10 years. I have always been interested in childbirth and helping people. It took me some time to figure out that I could combine those two passions into a career, but once I did I dove in head first. I completed my doula training and certification through Harbor Birth Institute in Franklin, Tennessee. I provide two prenatal meetings to discuss your preferences and goals, help you make decisions and give you tips and tricks for labor prep. I provide continual labor support from when you request it until after your baby is born. I will help you with breastfeeding in the first hours. We also have a postpartum visit to catch up, answer any questions you may have, and debrief your birth if you'd like. I am a Christian and enjoy incorporating faith-based concepts into my practice if it is something my clients desire and align with. When I am not helping mommas, I love to spend time with my friends and family, including my two nieces and three nephews. I love to read, garden, do yoga, get outside and move, and look for more house plants to add to my growing collection.

    Care philosophy

    I am passionate about empowering women to enter their labor and birth confidently, which leads to confidence in parenthood as well. I believe in informed consent and evidence based birth practices. But most of all, I believe women deserve to be supported throughout their pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum.
