Meet Jillian
POSTPARTUM DOULA
Jillian (she/her) is a Nashville native. Since she was a teenager, she has been fascinated by birth and the postpartum period. During her undergraduate degree she volunteered at Erlanger Baroness Hospital (Chattanooga, TN) on the Labor and Delivery unit, where she fell in love with supporting birthing people.
After graduating with her Bachelor of Science in Psychology, she attended a birth doula training through DONA International and later became a certified postpartum doula through ProDoula.
She then began working full-time as both a postpartum and birth doula. With over 2 years’ experience she has supported many families in both the birth and postpartum setting. Jillian is also currently a student in Vanderbilt’s School of Nursing where she is obtaining her Master of Nursing, and plans to continue her education to become a certified nurse-midwife.
When Jillian is not working you can find her studying at coffee shops, going for runs with her aussiedoodle named Kane, traveling, or playing pickleball with her friends.
