deliverance doula services
what’s a doula?
A doula is a birth professional trained in supporting the family, mom specifically, throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. A doula is not a medical professional. The role of a birth doula is to provide emotional and physical support as needed, as well as education.
Meet the doula
Hi! I’m Courtney Walkenhorst. I have been married to Matt since May 2018, we met at Eastern Kentucky University through Campus Outreach. We have three perfect boys, Teddy age 4, Clifford age 3, and Ronald age 1. They keep us busy and tired, but fill our lives with so much joy. We lived in La Grange while Matt attended SBTS, and now we live in Fort Thomas, KY where we attend and serve at Westside Reformed Church.
tell me about your business
Professionally, I have trained through DONA International, and certified through A Woman Who Serves (AWWS). I have been attending doula births since 2020 and have served moms both in Louisville and Cincinnati/NKY. I chose the name Deliverance Doula Services for specific reasons, and I enjoy what I do so much. I do not intend to ever be the busiest doula, I limit my clients intentionally for my own/my family’s wellbeing, and also to best serve my clients. This work is personal and I develop friendships with each of my clients and never take being invited into a birth space lightly.
contact me
Scheduling an interview is the next step in figuring out if a doula is for you. Interviews are no commitment, no cost, 1 hour meeting, normally at a coffee shop.
A little more info
Sometimes I write a blog, you can find it here. It’s not always about birth related things, so it’s really just for fun. Specifically, here’s an explanation of why I named my business Deliverance Doula Services.
