Doula Charlotte

Menu



My name is Erika Gebhardt, and I am a licensed birth doula in southwest Charlotte.  I attend hospital births and homebirths in the Charlotte area, Gaston County, and Fort Mill, South Carolina. I also look forward to attending births at the Carolina Community Maternity Center!

 

I attended my first birth as a support person in 2001, during which I felt a calling to birth work. Following that experience, I became a licensed birth doula through ALACE. More recently I have become a certified childbirth educator through Aviva Institute. I am also a licensed apprentice midwife in South Carolina. I work with Leigh Fransen, a licensed South Carolina midwife.

 

I believe that birth is normal and safe.  I believe that women have choices in childbirth, and that awareness and education are powerful tools.  I also support the role of medical care in childbirth, when it is necessary.  Finally, I have faith in a mother’s intuition.

 

Please contact me for more information about my experience, my resources, and to see if I'm the doula for you and your birth!
