LOVE BIRTH SERVICES
Every birth is unique.
Whether it takes place at a hospital, birthing center, or at home, each birth is beautiful and deserving of personalized support.
No matter how or where you choose to birth your baby, you can benefit from having a professional birth assistant. I am with you all the way to guide you and support you so that you feel less stress, less discomfort, and feel that YOU are in charge of your healthcare decisions. I am there for your support during your most vulnerable time so you can focus on the most important things.
You deserve a doula.
You can also find me on Doulamatch!
​
I am a Stillbirthday and Birth Arts International certified full spectrum doula and breast/chest feeding educator in training with Birth Arts International. I serve the Central Ohio area within an hour of NE Columbus. I will travel further than my typical range on a case-by-case basis. I am also opening up my skill base for supporting people through other life circumstances like surgeries and disability.

CLIENT EXPERIENCES
A Bit About Me
My name is Jessica Love. My pronouns are she/her. I identify as a neurodivergent leftist queer. I decided to become a doula after a wonderful doula attended the birth of my third child and made me feel supported and heard in my healthcare choices. I am dedicated to the community effort of improving birth and healthcare related outcomes for families in central Ohio or wherever I may reach. I am interested in herbal remedies and holistic healthcare. When I am not working, I enjoy playing retro video games, generalized geekery, a million craft and construction hobbies, reading, gardening, collecting bones, and continuing my education. I am an advocate for bodily autonomy, informed consent, universal healthcare, education reform, and social justice.
I will always be my genuine self around you so that you feel comfortable being your genuine self around me.
