I am Chiquinta Dickens a wife, a mother and a community advocate. I am a retired Educator as well as a Registered Nurse. My passion in life has always been to serve others. Since retirement I’ve had the opportunity to spend time doing things with the homeless population , domestic violence survivors and all things wellness related. I chose to become a doula after realizing that we were losing our sisters to maternal deaths at an alarming rate. Leaving families and communities devastated.The timing aligned perfectly with my life and advocacy. Along with advocacy work in the community I personally enjoy organizing events to help women entrepreneurs, riding my bicycle, reading, walking and water aerobics. I am looking forward to supporting mothers and their families physically, emotionally and offer informational support during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period.
