MEET THE DOULAS

Justine Temke founded Midwest Doulas to help create the best birth and postpartum experiences for growing families.

While working as a private doula, Justine quickly realized that the best births happen when families are well-informed and well-supported.

Midwest Doulas was formed to offer a strictly team-based model of doula care, which means there’s always a familiar face ready to support you and your partner or birth family—no matter when your delivery occurs. Justine and her team of doulas work tirelessly to provide the evidence-based education and non-judgemental support growing families need to navigate their birth and postpartum journeys.
