Jet'aime McKinney

Agency Owner & Founder, Full Bloom Birthing, Co.

Hi there! I’m Jet’aime—girl mama, Jesus lover, and the proud owner of Full Bloom Birthing Co.! Serving families in the metro Atlanta area for nearly four years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting over 200 births. Birth has always been a passion of mine, a miraculous and sacred experience that I’m honored to share with others.

After five years of battling infertility, I was overjoyed to finally welcome my daughter into the world. While she was born perfectly healthy, my birth experience was deeply traumatic. That, combined with the alarming maternal mortality rates in this country—especially among Black and Brown women—ignited a fire in me to make a difference.

So, I took a leap of faith, left my day job, and brought Full Bloom to life!

One of my greatest joys is educating and empowering families to achieve the birth experiences they desire—free from fear, trauma, or coercion from the medical system. I believe every woman deserves to feel confident and supported during birth because your body was made for this, Mama. With the right guidance and encouragement, your birth can be as beautiful and empowering as you’ve dreamed.

It would be an honor for us to stand by your side, champion your choices, and help you create a joyful, transformative experience.

Let’s bloom together! 🌸

Miscarriage & Postpartum Doula

Stephanie

My name is Stephanie. I’m a Christian, a wife (Marcus), and mom (Samuel & Jacqueline). My son was conceived after 2 miscarriages and almost 3 years of infertility via IUI, and my daughter was adopted. After bringing home my babies, I had extensive support from friends and family, including 6 weeks that my mom spent caring for my son and I. I only had to focus on recovering, nourishing myself and my babe.

It was this experience and my journey to motherhood being riddled with loss, infertility, a high-risk pregnancy, and birthing in a system that doesn’t have the best track record with black mothers that led me to birth work.

Hi there, beautiful! I am birth, wedding, and family photographer, Shamira Scott.

I see every opportunity to use my camera as an opportunity to leave each family with a major gift that will last for a lifetime. I believe that what I do is more than a job, it is also my ministry. My motto is “real people, real moments, real memories”.
