Chaney Lightfoot
Postpartum Doula
Chaney has a Bachelors of Science in Nutrition and received her training from DONA for Birth and CAPPA for postpartum. As a mother of two – daughter and son – she believes that having connection and a safe nonjudgmental space is what mothers need to be themselves and thrive.
After giving birth to her first child, she remembered leaving the hospital and thinking ‘what do I do next?’ Soon realizing there is no blueprint to motherhood. She began to battle with postpartum anxiety and was concerned about the connection to her daughter until she began the practice of spiritual awareness, gratitude and mindfulness.
Chaney recognized through her experiences that mothers still need mothering too. As a Postpartum Doula she wants to pour into moms and help fill their cups when they are pouring out to their families.
