About Me Kahlil M. Kuykendall
I am a wife, mother, yogi, doula (birth and postpartum), and women’s activist. My mission is to enhance the physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual health of mothers, babies and families/communities through education and support during pregnancy, childbirth and early parenthood.
​
I have been doing this work in the Washington, DC area for more than 13 years, and it is always growing and shifting. What I know: the process of birth is important, transformative and mysterious. My goal is to help educate / empower women and families about their choices in childbirth. I encourage women to believe and trust in their ability to birth their babies with as little interference and medical intervention as possible. I also believe the greatest expert in the birthing process is the birthing woman herself. Mama. Mama is the one who knows her body and baby the best. I will encourage her to trust herself. trust the process. and more importantly trust her instinct and intuition.
​
Through my work, I strive to create environments where my clients and students feel nurtured, supported and empowered as they move through their most vulnerable experiences and stages of awareness.
