Meet Your Doula: Florese Nelson

Hi, I’m Florese—the heart behind Koko Doula Company. My passion for birth work began long before I ever held a title. I’ve always been drawn to nurturing, advocating, and creating safe spaces for women during some of the most transformative moments of their lives. Becoming a doula simply put a name to the calling that already lived in me.

Supporting families—emotionally, physically, and spiritually—is where I feel most aligned. I believe birth is powerful, sacred, and uniquely personal. My role is to walk beside you with compassion, encouragement, and evidence-based guidance so you feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.

I serve with a heart for community, especially for mothers who often feel overlooked or unsure of where to find support. My mission is to make quality doula care accessible, empowering, and rooted in genuine connection.

Whether this is your first birth or your fifth, I’m honored to be part of your journey. Together, we create a space where you can birth with confidence, strength, and peace..

"My Why" meets "Your Trust"

Why I Became a Doula: A few years ago, I witnessed the power of compassionate, continuous support during birth. That inspired me to walk beside families as they navigate one of life’s most transformative moments.

What I Do: Whether through soothing massage, reflection tools, or being a steady presence during delivery, I strive to nurture your strength and honor your unique journey.
