Growing Your Nest Birth Services-Kimberly Williams, RN

12/30/2025

As this year wraps up I want to thank everyone who has supported Growing Your Nest for the last 4 years including the midwives and doulas who have referred clients. I want to thank for providing backup and stepping in at this time last year when I had a huge need!

Growing Your Nest has been one of the sweetest things I’ve done. Stepping into families’ lives and becoming part of their journey will be something I never take for granted.

To all the families I have served and I’m currently serving, thank you for entrusting me to be your doula. It is/has been an honor.

I pray 2026 holds many days of joy and love! Happy New Year!

2025 was a slow year for Growing Your Nest. This year has looked much different than the busy ones before it, but it has been a much needed respite. A time to rest physically and a time to serve my own daughter as she gave birth to our first grand-baby.

Looking forward to 2026 and can’t believe it’s already here!

I sit here today filled with gratitude for every client I have had the honor to serve. Each family I have taught, each baby I have held, each mama and dad I have walked alongside as they grew their family.

To each of you I wish the Merriest Christmas. My prayer for you is abundant grace as you raise your sweet children. For peace as you face the upcoming year. And love always in my heart for each of you. ♥️

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 2026 🎄🥳

🌟Review Time🌟

I have always enjoyed serving women at TriStar StoneCrest. It’s almost like I’m working with the delivery team there. We are never on opposing teams. Yesterday was no different!

This was my first birth with Midwife, Emily. To say she is a joy and light is an understatement. There wasn’t one instance of pushback but instead patience. And she even recommended sidelying pushing! First time I’ve witnessed that. She truly has the heart of a midwife and encompasses midwifery care.

I want to rave about nurse Jenna too. Sweet, caring, attentive, and supportive! My client’s words, “It’s so peaceful in here.” Jenna and Emily made it so. 🤍

My client labored with spa music playing through the newly installed Bluetooth speakers, we had essential oils diffusing, and the lights stayed dimmed even during her birth.

Every local hospital should take note. Women are flocking to this hospital because they SEE them and want to take a different approach and make a difference in their care.

It is truly a joy to support women at Tricare StoneCrest.

How blessed I am to do this! 🤍

Dad was asking how I manage it all: running my personal business, working for a busy midwife, being a mom, wife, and home-schooling our boys. My answer is this 👆🏼. It is the families I serve. Walking alongside them as they grow in more ways than one is a blessing and a gift. 🤍

Excited to have Dr. Chantal Shelstad with nearby! Her speciality is children, mamas, babies, or the whole family. The office is welcoming and set up for little ones. Check her out if you’re in the Tullahoma area!

A snapshot into birth work. 🤍

This was my Thanksgiving. 🦃 The midwife at my doula birth was the same at the next. She and I awake for over 24 hours. Delirious and fully present at the same time. Precious hours observing women as they labor and birth their babies is a gift. A gift I don’t take for granted.

Giving thanks for what God has called me to and equips me for. And especially thankful for my little grand-turkey who made my night.

My client was transferred to the hospital after a fast and furious home-birth for medical support. I was blown away by how the staff received and accommodated us. And the coolest thing was watching both the medical staff and the midwife work seamlessly as a team. A newborn exam by a CPM in the hospital made my heart swell. This is how I picture women’s healthcare; everyone working together doing what they do best for the client/patient.

I received an inquiry on January 23, 2022 from this mama. She hired me and 9 months later I stood in awe of a first time mama, who honestly didn’t need me, rock her birth. I was honored to serve her again when she and her husband welcomed baby #2. And although, I didn’t make it to her home-birth Wednesday night because baby #3 came in ONE hour, I am blessed to have been chosen again.

My clients are truly an extension of my family. I know I say it often, but this isn’t a job it’s a gift.
