Your doula relation
Our doulas believe strongly that every family deserves to write their own birth story. Our doulas will help you understand all your birthing options, help you create the conditions and strategies most aligned with those preferences, and provide judgement-free support as you journey through pregnancy and birth together.
Your doula relationship begins with a 45-minute virtual consultation where you can meet your doula, learn more about her background, and ask questions about our services. Next, you'll receive our contract package by email. Just fill it out, pay your invoice, and you are a part of the Sunflowers family! From that point on, your doula will be available to help you navigate your pregnancy and birth journey.
Sunflowers doulas are specially trained in mindfulness and hypnosis and are ready to guide you through your pregnancy and birth journey with a peaceful calmness. Listen to our affirmations, birth confidence tracks, or ask about a custom hypnotherapy session just for you!

The combination of hypnobirthing and doula support is powerful. Many of our clients choose to also learn HelloBirth® Hypnobirthing with Lindsey and enjoy shorter, easier, more comfortable labors by choosing providers aligned with their birth preferences, maintaining good prenatal health, and practicing HelloBirth® Hypnobirthing techniques.
Our Blissful Birthing Doula Package will set you up for success. Whether you choose to work with a senior or a junior doula, your doula package includes:
Lindsey Vick is the owner of Sunflowers Healing and Wellness. She is a Blissful Bellies™ Certified Birth Doula, hypnotherapist, and reiki energy healer.
A graduate of Wellesley College, Lindsey spent many years as an affordable housing consultant, where she managed a multi-million-dollar client portfolio of affordable housing agencies across the country. But her heart was always in supporting parents and birth workers. Since 2006, Lindsey has helped over 700 families welcome their babies, instructed almost 1300 families in childbirth preparation, and mentored or trained dozens of birth educators and doulas. In 2020, Lindsey partnered with another birth professional to create HelloBirth® Hypnobirthing, a dynamic, modern, and inclusive approach to hypnobirthing that centers and honors birthing people and their unique experiences.
Lindsey lives in Alexandria, VA, and when not helping pregnant families, she enjoys spending time with her family (spouse, two almost grown kids, two dogs, two cats, one bunny), listening to true crime podcasts, daydreaming in float tanks, cooking, and puzzles of all kinds!
As the Director of Birth Services, Lindsey takes birth clients on a limited basis - primarily past clients. She meets with all clients to learn about their hopes, dreams, needs, resources, and to connect them with an available doula.

Mikey is a Blissful Bellies™ Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula and has completed training as a DONA birth and postpartum doula. Mikey brings expertise in prenatal education, birth preparation, comfort measures during labor, holistic labor and birth, Spinning Babies, and advocacy.
Mikey started her career in birth work at an OBGYN office. For many years, this work satisfied her passion for supporting pregnant people. In search of more rewarding and fulfilling work, she decided it was time to pursue her passion further with a more intimate role in helping birthing families welcome their newest members - becoming a doula! Through her training and mentorship, she has developed the skills and tools to help expecting and postpartum families have an empowering experience.
When relaxing from her doula duties, you can find Mikey having fun with her husband, trying out a new recipe, teaching her friends the newest line dances, catching up on her favorite Netflix shows, playing card games, and spending time with her new little nephew!
Mikey aspires to be an IBCLC in the future and plans to continue expanding her expertise in the birth world with training in neonatal resuscitation.

Additionally, Evita is a certified HelloBirth® Hypnobirthing instructor.
Evita has been working with pregnant people as a prenatal guide and energy worker since 2012 and joined the Blissful Bellies™ doula team at Sunflowers in 2021. When not doula'ing, she enjoys being with family (husband and two children), traveling, homeschooling, tutoring (algebra is her jam!), and experimenting in the kitchen (Nailed it!)!
Evita earned a Bachelor of Arts from Bryn Mawr College and spent many years teaching high school math. Now that her family is complete, she is excited to work full time with clients from pre-conception through the early parenting months. She focuses on finding the joy in the journey of pregnancy and birth, and helping families recognize and connect to the energy of baby while both souls exist within one body.

As a mother herself, Tiana knows how life-altering birth is. She believes it is one of if not the most intense moments of life and is excited to assist parents as they journey through their unique birthing experiences. When Tiana isn’t providing birth support, she enjoys spending time with her husband and three children, eating Mexican food, and binge-watching her favorite streaming services!
Tiana has a Bachelor of Arts from Penn State University, where she majored in print journalism and minored in deafness and hearing studies. She is certified through Birth Becomes You as a birth photographer and has completed workshop training with Spinning Babies.

Perfect for parents desiring comprehensive birth support and a nurturing foundation during the early days of their newborn's arrival, this package is an ad-on to our Blissful Birth Support package and includes 40 hours of support from one of our postpartum doulas.
Ideal for those who prefer a self-led birthing experience while still enjoying the confidence that comes from thorough preparation and personalized guidance with a senior doula, our Everything but the Birth package offers unlimited support leading up to the big day. Enjoy all the services of our Blissful Beginnings package except labor support.
Sunflowers Doulas attend births in homes, birth centers, and hospitals in DC, Northern Virginia (Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Prince William County), and Prince George’s County, Montgomery County, St. Mary's County, Frederick, Baltimore, and Charles County.
Please inquire to see if service is provided to your area.
Because attending your birth is important, our doulas carefully balance on-call periods. Unless a personal/family emergency arises, you can count on your doula to be with you for your labor and birth. In those rare situations when she cannot attend, a back-up doula will be available.
Please contact us to inquire about availability during your birthing time. Even if it’s last minute, we may still be able to help you have the birth you desire.
