Kayla Rogers
Hello my name is Kayla Rogers . I am a Buffalo native and live on the westside of Buffalo with my husband and five children. I enjoy spending time with my family & friends, traveling and exploring my community.
​
I began my doula training in 2016 becoming certified in 2017. Since becoming a certified birth doula I have trained and become a certified Postpartum Doula, Certified Placenta Specialist , and a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist on the path to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. My long term goal is to become a Midwife.
​
My goal is to help the birthing person embrace their pregnancy and birth while receiving physical, mental, emotional, and educational support leading to a positive childbirth experience. I believe that by being a Doula I can help educate the birthing person about pregnancy and labor, help reduce the fear of birth and allow them to have power over their own choices. In addition, I hope to bridge the gap to have overall better birth outcomes especially with families of color.
​
I strive to create a strong and healthy birth environment, where the birthing person feels empowered and respected. Whether you plan to give birth in a hospital, at home or at a Birthing Center I want you to feel supported and empowered during this transformative time.

HISTORY & MISSION
I believe that by being a Doula, I can help educate women/birthing people about pregnancy and labor, reduce the fear of birth and allow women/birthing people to have power over their own choices! With that vision in mind, I established Divine Lotus Doula Services (DLDS) in 2016, helping women across Western New York find their voice, dignity, power and respect over their body and their baby's life.
​
I support births in all settings, from hospital to home births and Birthing Centers. I work with families from all different backgrounds, religions cultures and dynamics. I feel it is important for all women/birthing people and their families to be treated with equality and with integrity. Every person who wants a Doula should have a Doula but more importantly every person who needs a Doula should have one regardless of income which is why I also implement sliding scale fee for most services .
​
I am also one of the doulas participating in the NYS Doula Medicaid Program providing care to Medicaid recipients. This program provides doula services through Medicaid in NYS.
