My Clients Love Me!
Today was my first reiki session. It was absolutely amazing ! My body, emotions, mind and spirit were engaged. I felt at peace. I am looking forward to the next session.

My doula Nikiya, was SO supportive to my husband and I! She coached me and affirmed me through labor (and the months leading up to it). Kiya, Your words of empowerment helped me tap into a strength that I never knew I had. It GOT ME THROUGH IT!! I am so grateful for my doula being so present in that moment with my husband and I. I felt so much power, so much love and now I feel invincible. The natural birth experience is life-changing and I’m so happy that we chose a Nikiya to be apart of the team that helped us bring a beautiful, healthy baby into this world. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DIVERSE DOULA!!!

My doula Nikiya was absolutely a dream! Even though I had my son 3 weeks early and on a whim, she still was able to come through quick, fast and didn’t miss a beat! We missed our last session together since I gave birth early but that didn’t stop anything. She was there helping me breathe through the pain, talking to me, being every type of support me and my husband needed. I definitely would choose her and this company again!
