Golden Touch Childbirth Support Services

Golden Touch Childbirth Support Services Birth & Postpartum Doula Services for Springfield and surrounding communities. Childbirth Education classes are also available both online and in-person.

I am a firm believer in evidence-based, compassionate and informed care, particularly in the perinatal period of child-bearing persons. I am working to level the mortality and morbidity that accompanies childbirth and is far worse for Blacks, Browns and Indigenous people. Perinatal health outcomes are declining in America and I hope to be a part of the reversal in that trend. Childbirth education and doula services can be empowering. Prenatal massage can also be quite helpful in managing the common discomforts of pregnancy. With the threat of COVID, I’ve changed the way I work. Always practicing standard precautions with regard to hygiene and safety, I, owner & sole practitioner at Golden Touch, have stepped up that game. High contact surfaces are frequently cleaned. Shared access items have been reduced as much as possible. Unnecessary items are removed altogether from the work space. Perhaps more than ever, relief from stress is needed in today’s world. I remain a firm believer in the rejuvenating and pain-relieving power of massage. By appointment only, I have openings throughout the week day and evening. For doula and childbirth services, see my website https://www.goldentouchchildbirthsupport.com or PM here at Facebook.

Stories like this motivate and empower me as a doula!

With my first daughter, we had a bit of a scare when her heart rate dropped and I was induced with oxytocin. I was hooked up to many machines, I couldn’t walk around but I could stand. When the nurses checked on me, I kept asking where the baby was in my pelvis, one of the nurses was confused, but another nurse had followed Spinning Babies® lessons and knew exactly why I was asking. It was my first baby, I was about 5 hours into labour, when the nurse told me where the baby was, I was at about 5cm dilated. I did side lunges until I felt more pressure, 20 minutes later—I was 10cm dilated and ready to push! It was incredible, one nurse was on break and by the time she came back-I had the baby!

My midwives were so supportive and made sure I knew all my options, Spinning Babies® empowered me. What started as powerless, being rushed into a room, poked and prodded—ended up as a successful, healthy, empowering situation. I can’t say enough about Spinning Babies®!

These CoolBot walk-in coolers have officially been installed at at CoxHealth! The coolers will be used for keeping produce fresh and refrigerated before and after washing, greatly increasing our ability to harvest more while keeping produce and flowers fresher for longer.

Special thanks to our partners at U.S. Department of Agriculture Beginning Farmer Rancher Development Program and Missouri Department of Agriculture Food Insecure Urban Agriculture Matching Grant Program for funding this crucial piece of infrastructure.

Join us in honoring some of history’s most notable Black innovators in agriculture who laid the foundation for farming as we know it today!

Let’s hear it for a man born right here in the Ozarks! George Washington Carver is well known for his work developing new products made from peanuts, but did you know that he was also a soil health advocate and developed a new method for crop rotation?

Carver realized that “soil in many southern states had been stripped of essential nutrients like nitrogen from repetitive cotton planting processes,” and “promoted practices that seem commonplace today like composting soil with organic matter,” (gillsonions).

Not only that, but Carver was the first African American to earn a bachelor of Science degree and went on to study plant diseases, attain a Master of Agriculture degree, and share his agricultural knowledge with other Southern farmers to help them save money and produce higher yields on their farms.

Day and evening appointments are available throughout the week.
