Who am I?

It all begins with an idea.

Welcome to Divine Birthways! I'm Jaiden Canteen, a full-spectrum doula serving families throughout the DC metro area, Northern Virginia, and parts of Maryland. I’m thrilled you're here to learn more about my journey, philosophy, and the heartfelt services I offer to support you through your unique birth experience.

My passion for nurturing and empowering families is deeply rooted in both personal and professional experiences. Growing up in South Carolina, I was profoundly influenced by witnessing the disparities and gaps within Western medical practices around childbirth. Driven by this awareness and my love for holistic wellness, I dedicated myself to redefining the birth experience by providing informed, compassionate, and empowering support.

I hold a degree in Psychology and Early Childhood Development from the College of Charleston, which enriches my approach as a doula. My background enables me to understand deeply the emotional and psychological journey of childbirth and parenting, providing a grounded, empathetic perspective to my clients.

At Divine Birthways, I offer a diverse range of services tailored to meet your needs:

  • Childbirth Education: Empowering you with knowledge to make informed decisions about your birth.

  • Labor and Birth Doula Support: Providing physical, emotional, and spiritual support to enhance your birth experience.

  • Postpartum Doula Services: Assisting families with gentle, compassionate care during the delicate postpartum period.

  • Breastfeeding Counseling: Supporting you through the early and ongoing stages of breastfeeding with evidence-based advice and intuitive care.

  • Prenatal Yoga and Nutrition Education: Nurturing your body and mind through yoga practices specifically designed for pregnancy and holistic nutritional guidance to support maternal health.

Central to my practice is my passion for holistic and natural remedies. I integrate gentle, natural approaches such as herbal remedies, aromatherapy, breathwork, meditation, crystals, and ritual practices aligned with lunar cycles to provide a calming, supportive environment. My goal is to help each family find their path to a natural, empowered, and fulfilling birth experience, embracing the innate wisdom of the body and the profound strength inherent in the birth process.

Creating a soft place to land is at the heart of everything I do. I cultivate spaces—both physical and emotional—where families feel seen, supported, and cherished. My role is not only to educate but also to deeply listen, understand your individual desires, and advocate for your unique vision. Whether in the comfort of your home, at a birth center, or in a hospital setting, I am dedicated to ensuring your birth experience is as close to your heart's desire as possible.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I warmly invite you to reach out and begin the journey towards your divine birth experience. Together, we can create something truly beautiful.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
