Chelsey Taylor

Jan 29

I'm Chelsey Taylor, the beloved daughter of the Most High King. I’m a devoted wife and proud mama of four children from teens to toddler.

I have 15 years dedicated to supporting maternal and newborn care to families living in Northeast TN through both peer to peer support groups and professional services. I’m a childbirth educator, labor and postpartum doula, student midwife, and postpartum placenta specialist.

I was trained through ProDoula and joined the High Country Doulas team in 2017. Since 2021, I’ve been apprenticing with local Certified Professional Midwives to learn the traditional practice of midwifery in our community. I hold certifications in Neonatal Resuscitation (NRP), CPR, and first aid. I also have skills in Spinning Babies techniques, birth emergencies, belly binding, perinatal mood support, and lactation.

I view this birth work as my God-given ministry and higher calling. Nothing else I can ever imagine doing than walking alongside families as they welcome their new babies.

“I will forever be grateful for the help from my amazing doula Nellie Hensley-Ahrens.

Being able to birth how I wanted with the support from Nellie and my husband made this experience unforgettable. I think that all women should have access to doulas for their babies, because the knowledge and support you get from these women is truly life changing.”

-Sabrina S. Third-time mom, Mountain City, TN

“I thought I would feel uneasy having someone I didn’t know very well in the room with us in such an emotional situation. However, I couldn’t have been more wrong. Chelsey made us feel at ease, laugh, and felt so cared for.”

Madison Idell - Greeneville TN

“Having a doula was such an amazing experience. They were there for me throughout my pregnancy answering any questions or concerns that came up, no matter what time of day. They talked me and my husband through every stage and step of labor, helping us ease our worries.”
