Born With Margo

Hi!  My name is Margo Shelton.  I have lived in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina with my husband & 3 children since 2019.

 

Shortly after my third child was born, in 2011, I decided to become a birth doula.  The conversation went something like this...

ME: there was this one nurse who held her hands on my back and reminded me to breathe.  I wish I could be a nurse who does that, and none of the "medical stuff"...

BFF: uh, you don't have to be a nurse.  You could be a doula!

ME: a do-what?!

and the rest is history.

​

I was trained and certified through DONA International.  Then, in 2016, I added postpartum support to my services.  I often travel with clients and care for their babies in cars, airplanes, and hotels.

I am also a childbirth educator.  I teach classes to groups and I offer private education in your home or virtually.  

Additionally, I am a certified placenta expert & offer encapsulation & tinctures.

​

I am happy to work on holidays and I'm willing to travel up to one hour from my home.
