Nicolyn Pisch
Certified DONA Birth Doula
As a birth doula, I empower women during their pregnancy, labor and postpartum period.
About Me
I am a mother to three life-giving children and a wife to the best companion God could have given me. We have lived in Ohio since 2017. I have spent years traveling, exploring and understanding people groups that drew me to pursue a degree in cultural anthropology. I never thought I would be passionate about birth, but it's a topic I can spend hours talking about. I became a doula in 2020. I have found it so fun to work with so many different types of people from different geographical areas and different walks of life. I truly love helping people and what joy it is to help them in the most vulnerable state of life; childbirth.
Why I chose to be a Doula
As I laid my head back after my sweet baby boy was placed on my chest, I felt a wave of joy come over me. I felt strong, empowered and controlled. I could not believe how different this birth was from my first child. I went in blindly, knowing nothing, doing everything everyone suggested leading me to have an overwhelming sense of fear and insecurity during my first birth. When I got pregnant with my second son, I thought, “birth can’t be that bad for everyone, right?” As I began researching, I discovered a new world opened up to me. Pregnancy can be smooth. Birth can be joyful. I dug in deep, educated myself and prepared my body, mind and spirit for birth. My entire delivery of my second child was full of joy, laughter and empowerment.
I knew that every woman needed to experience this. Every woman needs to feel victorious when they deliver. Every woman needs to feel the strength of another holding them up, encouraging their decisions, and reminding them they can do this. Birth is unlike any other experience in our life. It involves our mind, our spirit and our emotions, just as much as it involves our bodies. I kept telling myself, “Why is this not addressed or talked about?” So I decided to take action. Since, I have become a doula, I have made it a goal for every woman to walk away from her birth feeling empowered, victorious and encouraged. I love seeing moms step into the role of motherhood with confidence, kicking fear and lies to the ground. After all, this is what our bodies are designed to do.

"I didn't have a doula for my first birth, but Nicolyn made me wish I did. Nicolyn is wealthy with knowledge and skills that made my birth experience the way I wanted it to be! She helped me make a birth plan, helped educate me on the things I missed out on with my first birth, and was a constant help to me and my husband during labor and delivery! I'd refer her to anyone, she is truly amazing!"

"When I first got pregnant I didn’t realize what all would be needed until I spoke with a friend who had a home birth. She made me really want to have one and when we realized I wasn’t going to be able to, she said at minimum to have a doula at my birth. I’m extremely happy I had one and Nicolyn was the best choice ever! She was simply amazing! She was available via text/phone call for questions and when I told her my water had broke, she started getting her stuff together and said, just let me know when you want me there.She was with me every step of the way and helped bridge the communication with me and the nurses and my wishes. She helped with different positioning and suggested different things throughout my labor to try to get my body to contract naturally. When contractions were starting to become more intense, she watched my monitor and counted me through the contractions which was super helpful. Towards the end she really helped me with my breathing and staying relaxed. She was super encouraging and I don’t think I could’ve had the amazing birthing experience I did without her. I recommend her to anyone having a baby! She is a must!"

"I was blessed with the opportunity to meet Nicolyn Pisch and have her as my doula. My labor would have been miserable without Nicolyn by my side. She was there when my husband wasn't able to be due to him taking care of our other four children. She helped me set the room at the hospital to be relaxing. She made sure I was hydrated and fed. She spoke up for me when I was unable to speak up for myself. She was patient with me when we tried different techniques and different positions to help me progress.She was kind and understanding when my mood changed and I became an unbearable bear. When my husband showed up she made sure to include him in everything. 42 plus hours of labor with 2 plus hours of that time being spent with me pushing...she was there for a majority of it. She was my voice, my pillar, my coach, my friend, my sanity, and my angel. There is no words to express exactly how amazing she was/is. Thank you Nicolyn so much for everything... you went above and beyond."
