About Me

Hi, I'm Dawneshia Logo, also known as Ma Hood Doula. My journey into birthwork began long before my training; it began in the delivery room. After giving birth to my son in 2018 via cesarean, I found myself reflecting deeply on that pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period, and on how much I longed for additional support, guidance, and someone in my corner who truly understood what I was going through. That experience planted a seed. When I went on to have an empowering and successful VBAC with my second youngest daughter in 2020, that seed became a fire. I began my doula training that October, driven by an urgent and deeply personal calling to make sure other mothers never had to navigate this journey feeling alone, unprepared, or unseen.

I began my training during the pandemic, at a time when the need for community-based support for women and mothers felt more critical than ever. What started as a response to that moment has grown into a full practice rooted in lived experience, cultural responsiveness, and genuine love for this work. I have had the privilege of supporting a wide range of families, first-time parents stepping into the unknown, mothers navigating high-risk pregnancies including preeclampsia, and plus-size mothers who deserve care that is affirming and free of judgment. My own journey as a mother of multiple children, including two successful VBACs, gives me a perspective that goes beyond the professional. I know what it feels like to want more, more support, more information, more reassurance, and I bring that understanding into every family I serve.

My philosophy is simple and unwavering: every mother and family deserves to feel empowered, informed, and capable of advocating for themselves. I believe that when mothers are equipped with knowledge, surrounded by encouragement, and supported by a steady, trustworthy presence, they don't just survive this season; they thrive in it. Whether you are preparing for your first birth, navigating a complex pregnancy, or finding your footing in the postpartum period, I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way with compassion, expertise, and a whole lot of heart.
