Love Burland, LMT & Reiki Master
Love attained her national massage certification in 2001 and has been licensed by several states since then, including the state of Ohio. She has also been practicing Usui Reiki since 1997. After having her children, Love spent several years assisting her midwife at other home births and then later volunteered as a doula in a hospital program.

She enjoys supporting others in their growth, change, and self-healing.
Love feels it is important to maintain connected with her clients physical, emotional, and mental well-being throughout their session by using awareness and open communication. It is the clients massage, not hers! She feels that wellness and bodywork gives us all an opportunity to take an active part in maintaining ones health and presents opportunities to help our bodies heal themselves more effectively.

Margaret Sankey, Birth Doula
Margaret became interested in doula work through her AmeriCorps service at Community Health Center in Denver, Colorado. There, she learned the importance of patient centered care and was exposed to birth workers who advocated for a woman's choice to birth how and where she wanted. She became interested in birth as a means of empowerment for women. With the increased medicalization and fear surrounding birth in our culture, Margaret has been fascinated with the idea that the entrance into motherhood doesn't have to be this scary. It has the potential to strengthen women and open their eyes to their unique and individual inner-strength. She strives to educate women that birth is a natural process that their bodies were designed to do. She continues to educate herself through the doula community in Cleveland by attending educational events and programs led by local midwives and experienced birth workers. Margaret is certified to teach yoga and values the importance of breath and meditation during the birth process. After completing a DONA International training in Colorado, Margaret returned to Cleveland and has served women as a birth doula. Her powerful experiences in the birthing room have further motivated her to continue this work towards fostering confidence and feminine intuition within communities of women.

Alyssa Lawman
Alyssa graduated from Kent State University in 2014 just a few days after her son was born. Alyssa was lucky enough to have her Aunt as an impromptu birth and postpartum doula for her birth.

Alyssa believes that doulas are an invaluable resource to families making the transition to parenthood or families that alreay have! She feels that her role as a doula is to educate and comfort mothers and families to keep this process sacred like nature intended.
