Meet Kayla Holmes
Kayla Holmes is a postpartum and infant care doula and postpartum placenta specialist serving Greater Cincinnati. We’re so excited to have her on our team. Let’s get to know her a little better.
How long have you lived in the Cincinnati area?
I have lived in the area my whole life!
What do you love about living in Cincinnati?
There’s always something to do, somewhere to go, or something new to see. I have family spread out across the area and it always so fun getting together.
What's your favorite place to eat in Cincinnati?
I want to say some cool local place, but honestly, my favorite place to eat is Chipotle!
Goldstar or Skyline?
Skyline!
UC or XU?
UC!
What does your ideal Saturday look like?
I recently started to love waking up a little bit earlier than the rest of my house on Saturday’s just to get some quiet time to myself reading, drawing, or doodling. Then, the rest of the day would be consumed with spending time with my husband and our three kids. We’re either playing outside or working on some DIY projects.
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
I would love to see places like Greenland and Iceland. I love how beautiful Alaska and the Redwood Forest are! One of my closest friends is from Egypt and I’ve always wanted to go since we were younger. If given the opportunity to visit anywhere in the world, I’d be willing to go just about anywhere.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
I changed what I wanted to be all the time, but I wanted to work with children mainly - from wanting to be a teacher to a Speech Pathologist!
Why did you become a doula?
I wanted the opportunity to provide support to parents whether it’s their first, third, fourth, or fifth child. I want families to feel supported and confident.
