Tabitha Kaza CD(DONA), certified and recertified

Birth doula, trained birth assistant, bereavement doula, mother of thirteen

My first baby was born 26 years ago, while I was still an undergrad at Brown University. My first six children were born in five different hospitals, and the last seven at home. I became a certified DONA doula after the (painless!) birth of my ninth child in 2012, completed Spinning Babies training with Gail Tully, neonatal resuscitation and perinatal psychology with Karen Strange, birth assistant training with Birth Arts International, perinatal loss through Embracing Grace and VCU’s medical school in Richmond, and attended ACNM’s annual symposium at George Washington medical school in DC. I love birth. Aways have. And I want all women to know what is possible for birth: an ecstasy, intimacy, and bliss beyond imagination.

We truly developed a special love in our hearts for her, and will cherish our memories...forever.

It was calming to know that any question, concern, fear, joy, and wild emotion I experienced was met with Tabitha’s love, care, and genuine demeanor, and her never-ending personal knowledge of all things birth from her own studies and her own double-digit birthing experiences.

I had always thought that a doula would not have much to do during a medicated birth, but I was wrong...I honestly believe that if it were not for Tabitha (and my midwife), I would have had a csection.
— Sofia, first baby, Loudoun
When I was in active labor and through delivery, she was a workhorse—keeping cool cloths on my neck and forehead, heat on my back, head and hip squeezes, assistance with showers, getting me to labor in different positions to continue progress...I cannot recommend her highly enough.
— Bess, first baby, Fair Oaks
I can pretty much guarantee you will never meet anyone who loves birth more than Tabitha, which is why she is the very best doula you can find!
— Megan, fifth baby, Prince William
I can honestly say Tabitha’s warm, comforting presence provided us the strength and power to work together as a team.
— Jessica, first baby, Fairfax
Enduring, encouraging, confident, knowledegable, sounding board, devoted, peaceful, loving birth doula. Those are only a few on a long list of wonderful attributes I could use to describe Tabitha.
— Kimmy, first baby, Fair Oaks
Tabitha is amazing! In fact, amazing is an understatement. She is a life saving and life giving being. My VBAC would not have been successful without her.
— Julia, VBAC, Prince William
