Today we’d like to introduce you to Shamira Wyatt.
Hi Shamira, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I am Shamira Newjoyz Certified Doula Fertility + Birth + Postpartum, owner of Agape Creations Boutique. During a time of spiritual growth and healing, I was led to Holistic Wellness and Alternative Ways To Heal The Womb. I’ve gained a Birth Doula and Yoni Steam Practitioner Certification. A Lifetime of Passion for Childbirth and Maternal Care, and an extensive 14 year career in Urgent Care/OBGYN Medical Facilities in Atlanta. I would be happy to serve you, as your Doula! (Now serving Atlanta, GA!) #JourneyWithME A Vision To Make an Impact.
It’s more than a business to me, as your doula; it’s a revolutionary, world-changing action with expectations in reproductive justice, honoring choices of the person birthing, and expanding the use of holistic practices. I’ve had some previous experiences in my career and my own personal “Journey 2 Baby” has inspired me to share the knowledge, BE The Change and to service other women before and after childbirth!) Agape Creations Offers Doula Services, Mobile Vsteam, Inspirational Blog/Women Support Group, and Natural Products/Supplements. 👑💜♨️With a Passion and Drive; That will inspire, Empower & Heal many women, through Agape Creations!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Overall it’s been a smooth road for Agape Creations Boutique. But of course, during the year of 2020, we definitely had PIVOT, STRATEGIZE and EXECUTE!) But overall well worth it due to the amount of passion that is in this work for our birthing community.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
So what’s a Doula? ~FERTILITY DOULA (n): A woman who supports you during a unique journey to baby. Providing education to increase fertility. As your Doula, I will have a holistic approach with the use of herbal vs team, diet, exercises/yoga and meditation. I can 100% relate to you, as we Journey 2 Baby TOGETHER!) ~BIRTH DOULA (N); a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother and partner who is expecting or is experiencing labor. My whole purpose is to advocate and assist women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. ~POSTPARTUM DOULA (n): A woman professionally trained in newborn care and postpartum education. Supporting & Caring for YOU & YOUR FAMILY as you adjust to a new life in the weeks following childbirth. Your own Personal Assistant, Chef, Nanny and Friend!) “For This CHILD We’ve Prayed~ 1 SAMUEL 1:27”
My passion and ambition as a doula is to educate, empower, and support mothers during their birth journey. Birth is a tremendous and transformative labor of love, filled with both challenges and rewards. I believe in the immense power of a positive birth experience. An experience that allows mommy and partner to begin parenthood with joy and confidence, knowing they had the best birth experience ever. My goal is to help parents create positive memories of birth, regardless of the challenges that may arise. My approach is to be a doula with a dedication to working openly with the unique perspective, abilities, challenges, and needs of laboring mothers and their support team. I am passionate about offering non-judgmental and individualized support of a family’s choices surrounding the environment, intentions, and medical care during birth. With an attentive and wholehearted presence, I will aid women and their support team with physical and emotional comfort measures, pain coping methods, relaxation techniques, understanding of birth physiology, communication with medical staff, and support involvement of a partner or birth companion.
I truly feel blessed to attend any birth, but I have a special interest in advocating for teen/single mothers with little to no family support or women on the “Journey 2 Baby,” such as myself. I believe everyone deserves the birth experience they desire. Your Doula we offer emotional, physical, and mental guidance in navigating your birth experience and advocating for the best possible care, and to fight against maternal mortality rates. DID YOU KNOW? Doula care reduces cesarean births, decreases mortality and other adverse outcomes, and improves the quality of life for the first and second child. However, due to a lack of financial resources, many women are less likely to receive services from doulas. Agape Creations Boutique offers inexpensive packages of your choice; that will also have payment plan options. The ultimate goal as your doula is to offer continual assistance through your “Journey To Baby” provide expertise, holistic pain therapy and emotional support; while expressing encouragement, as you “Birth Your Miracle!”
What would you say have been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
The most important lessons I’ve learned so far on this journey is to stay in alignment with God and to balance personal and career life. A Doula, we emotionally, physically, and sometimes spiritually pour into the birthing moms. So as a Doula, we must understand the IMPORTANCE Of Selfcare! (My cup runneth over, as scripture says to pour into my family, friends and birthing mommies in my community!)
