Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. My name is Jennifer Schaeffer. I am a certified full-spectrum doula. I currently live in Commerce, Texas, with my wonderful husband, my momma, and three of our seven beautiful children. I was born in Chicago and moved to Wisconsin when I was ten years old. I lived in Wisconsin until December 2019, when we made the big move to Texas. My husband and I were married in August 2001. We set our hearts on starting our family right away, but that wasn’t happening as easily as we thought. We decided to focus on helping children in foster care who needed a safe, permanent home. We were blessed to adopt six children over ten years. When we moved to Texas, I found out I was pregnant after eighteen years of infertility and losses. Unfortunately, that pregnancy also ended in loss. Months later, we were expecting again, and unfortunately, that pregnancy ended in loss as well. In November 2020, we found out I was pregnant again… Yes, three times, in one crazy year! Then, our miracle rainbow baby was born in July 2021. During my losses in 2020, I was blessed with a doula who helped support my husband and me during that tough time. I knew I wanted to become a doula so I could be there for women, as she was there for me. I took classes to become a full-spectrum doula and finished my certification in February 2022. I took a short break while my son was a baby. Since then, I have had so many wonderful experiences, supporting women, their partners, and families, as they go through their prenatal, labor and delivery, and postpartum journey. I have also had many virtual clients over the past few years. I have also walked through the valley with mommas who’ve suffered loss. It is my honor to serve women and provide the experience I believe every mom deserves. I love the saying, “I’m not a doula to hold babies. I’m a doula to hold mothers.” I take clients in the surrounding communities, such as Greenville, Sulphur Springs, and Wolfe City. I’m also willing to travel to Dallas, Rockwall, and Paris. Every family’s journey is unique, and it’s my most profound honor to walk alongside them—whether they are celebrating new life, grieving a loss, or navigating the many transitions of parenthood.

My mission is to provide unwavering support, informed guidance, and a compassionate presence during life’s most tender moments. Because every mother deserves to feel seen, heard, and held.
