Welcome to Shiphrah Birth Services


Hi!  My name is Bethany Gates, and I am a Certified Birth Doula. 

If you're here looking at my page, you're probably pregnant or know someone who is.  You've found me through an internet search or through a friend.  Perhaps you've used Doula services before and have experienced what a Doula can do for you and are looking to repeat that experience; maybe you've never used a Doula and simply want to learn more so you can decide if you could benefit from Doula services; maybe you're skeptical about adding another person to your birth team. Regardless of what brings you here, I hope my page will answer your questions and guide you in making the decision that's right for you and your baby.  Please explore the various pages and feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

                                                                                                "For you created my inmost being;
                                                                                                                   you knit me together in my mother’s womb." Psalm 139:13
