LaShawn Woods

LaShawn Woods is a full-spectrum holistic doula and naturopathic practitioner based in Texas who has been supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum since 2014. She is passionate about helping mothers feel prepared, supported, and confident during one of life’s most important transitions.

LaShawn provides compassionate, hands-on support throughout the entire journey—from pregnancy preparation to birth and the early postpartum weeks. Families appreciate her calm presence, practical guidance, and ability to help them feel grounded even during intense or uncertain moments. She works closely with both parents, ensuring partners feel included and confident in their role during labor and after baby arrives.

Her postpartum care is especially valued by families who need extra support adjusting to life with a newborn. LaShawn offers overnight and night-time support so parents can rest and recover, assistance with newborn care, gentle sleep routines, breastfeeding guidance, and emotional reassurance during the early weeks. She also helps families navigate sibling transitions, twin care, and household adjustment as everyone adapts to the new baby.

With training in holistic wellness, herbalism, nutrition, and postpartum recovery, LaShawn integrates natural approaches alongside practical newborn care. She supports breastfeeding, nervous system regulation, maternal healing, and family bonding while helping parents build sustainable routines that support both baby and mother.

In addition to her work with families, LaShawn is an educator and curriculum developer with over a decade of experience in early childhood education. She teaches children daily through Set Apart Hebrew Academy and trains future doulas and holistic practitioners through Segulah Wholistic Institute. Her background in child development helps her guide families not only through birth but also through the early stages of parenting.

Families often describe LaShawn as nurturing, attentive, and deeply supportive. Her goal is to help parents feel empowered, well-rested, and confident as they step into this new season of life.

Supporting families during pregnancy and postpartum is truly an honor to me. I believe every parent deserves to feel supported, informed, and cared for during this sacred transition. My goal is to create a calm and nurturing environment where you can feel confident in your body, your choices, and your ability to care for your baby. I’m here to walk alongside your family, provide practical support, and help make the early days with your little one feel peaceful and supported.
