Naiylah is a birth and postpartum community doula that provides physical, emotional, and informational care by supporting live births and postpartum care throughout the Chicagoland area. Naiylah has been practicing as a birth doula since 2025. She has worked in healthcare by providing support to families in the Chicago area for over 17 years. Naiylah fell in love with the idea of supporting labor many years ago while watching "A Baby Story" on TLC. She always felt a passion to care for families and found the experience of supporting births so rewarding. Naiylah is committed to continuing her education and further develop on her skillset and expertise as a doula. Naiylah provides a consistent and reliable source of support to the families she connects with by showing up and being dedicated to providing the best support possible and making sure to meet the needs of her clients. 

Naiylah enjoys cooking a wide range of foods, traveling, taking road trips, going for nature walks, listening to music, watching documentaries and a host of other activities.  

Supporting families during this transition is a privilege because this experience is so special and memorable and leaves a permanent impression. Families will always remember their birth experience and those involved who cared and supported them through this journey and I have so much to offer for their experience.
