Stephanie Webb | Birthing Gently

My journey into birth work began when I was a senior in high school. A close friend

became pregnant, and many around her turned away. She asked me to go to the gym with

her, but the only way I could join was by volunteering. That’s where my passion for

fitness—and ultimately for supporting mothers—was born. The more I worked alongside

women and children, the stronger my calling became.

In 2007, I became a birth sister through Boston Medical Center, dedicating myself to

learning and supporting pregnant mothers in need. As my career developed, I realized my

passion extended beyond fitness and into hands-on care. This led me to massage therapy,

where I continued my education to become a certified prenatal massage therapist.

At 20 years old, I became a mother myself. The process was not always easy, but

welcoming my daughter into the world at 21 was the greatest gift I could ever receive.

That experience deepened my empathy, understanding, and commitment to walking

alongside families on their journeys.

Today, my work reflects the many paths I’ve taken to be of service. In addition to being a

birth and postpartum doula, I am an outpatient therapist, a foster parent, and a CPR

instructor. I have also completed infant massage training, and I am studying to take the

Lamaze certification exam. Beyond that, I am finishing school to become a licensed

Funeral Director and Embalmer, while continuing advanced education in lactation and

other specialties that strengthen my ability to support families at every stage of life.

My goal has always been to live a well-rounded life of service—to meet people where

they are and help them through life’s most important transitions.

I truly believe in this: never give up on yourself or your vision. Parenthood doesn’t

prevent you from reaching your goals—if anything, it can enrich your journey. No matter

how difficult the road, you can do this.

I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your story.
