Myah M

Greetings!

My name is Myah. Doula, Birth Activist, Mother, Healer.

I am a woman (she/her) of Caribbean and British heritage. I am a lover of cooking, music, singing, dancing, and joy. I am a fully trained doula with experience working in community engagement, particularly with Black perinatal women.

My doula journey began during the pregnancy of my first child in 2021 when I learnt of the challenges laid ahead for me as Black perinatal woman. Additionally, my anti-racism journey strengthened following the aftermath of the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, when I discovered that the only thing that matters is Black liberation.

My work and engagement have been centred on nothing else since then. I began my official doula training in 2023, combining both elements of the birth world and Black liberation, to finally form The ReBirth Space, a virtual and Birmingham-based doula service centering the experience of African and Caribbean heritage birthing families.

The ReBirth Space is a full-spectrum doula service where African Diaspora families are supported to connect back to their innate birth wisdom, to welcome the next generation with ease by offering:

• Culturally-centred perinatal support in pregnancy, birth and postpartum

• Online and in-person events and workshops

• Ital food preparation services and pop ups

• Black-body birth activism

The vision...

To

Reclaim

the wisdom and birthright of African Diaspora birthing families.

To

Reimagine

ways of safe birthing within a hostile white-bodied medical system for Black-bodied individuals.

To

Remember

and trust innate birth wisdom, one birthing person at a time.
