We had the good fortune of connecting with Malaika Gray and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Malaika, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I felt as though women needed extra assistance with planning their births in the busy, hectic, and sometimes out of control society we live in today. Women are taking on so many roles that require their attention from places they never knew were there. That in itself takes ample courage, stride and strength alone. During pregnancy, I feel it is an important time for a woman to place more attention on her body, mind, and her mental strength to succeed in carrying out her pregnancy abundantly and the will to enjoy the journey ahead. Finding out your pregnant is such a fulfilling and happy moment in a woman’s life and can sometimes lead to thoughts of not being prepared or overwhelmed due to other obstacles in life that may take time away from really enjoying this new found glory.

Many studies have shown how acute and chronic stress during pregnancy can affect the birth rate of a fetus and weaken the immune responses between fetus and mother with the likelihood to cause preterm birth and preeclampsia. With knowing all the precursors involved to carrying out a healthy pregnancy the big message to an expecting mother is to not take on more stress then she already can handle.

That’s where Mommy’s Guided Miracle comes in. We are a birth consulting company that takes on all responsibilities in making sure an expecting mother can have a pleasant birth experience allowing her to sit back and have the freedom of enjoying the journey towards motherhood without the chaos that comes with planning. She skip’s out on needing to contact doctors offices for referrals and registration and filling out online medical info. She just show’s up to receive the service and or care rendered for her. We provide transportation services that makes for perfect convenience and gives her and her loved ones a means to get to and from their prenatal appointments and or services with ease. This allows the expecting mother to enjoy her journey to birth while Mommy’s Guided Miracle accomplishes all the heavy and mundane work that’s involved. We get the referrals, schedule appointments, give resources for healthy development, we set expecting mothers up with skillful professionals who provide thoughtful guidance and expertise so that her birth plan comes into fruition just as she expected.

Our mission is to see childbirth and maternal healthcare be more convenient, less stressful and easily accessible for expecting mothers.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Mommy’s Guided Miracle is an online consulting business that takes on all the roles of planning an expecting mothers birth. We contact the doctors, get referrals, register clients for their appointments and or services and provide the transportation even during labor.

With starting this business I am most proud and excited about all the help and guidance I am providing for expecting mothers so that their pregnancy is focused solely on them having a positive and emancipating experience for themselves. I’m giving women the ability to focus on less of the mundane tasks that go into planning their pregnancy and allowing them to focus on what matters most. Themselves and their growing belly’s.

I have grown Mommy’s Guided Miracle to where it is today by practicing diligence and patience and allowing these two components to guide me to prevail within my business goals and ventures. My social media content page has played a large role towards my successes and has helped me gained clients who all have the same vision as I do with childbirth outcomes. The content I post is all geared towards prenatal health facts, information, businesses and services who share the same niche. I attract expecting mothers and birth professionals to interact and share their maternal health and motherhood experiences with one another.

The major lessons I’ve learned in building Mommy’s Guided Miracle is that consistency and time are my biggest allies. And that the way to succeed is to keep your client engaged and give them information to help them grow and succeed. If there’s one thing I would want the world to know about Mommy’s Guided Miracle as a brand is that we are here to make child birth and maternal health care be more convenient, less stressful and easily accessible for expecting mothers.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would dedicate this shout out to all the powerful and fearless women in the world making nothing out of something and seeking the faith and ability to accomplish their wishes and goals for themselves and families with all the challenges we are naturally faced against. This pandemic we all experienced gave everyone the ability to take a step back and think about what’s important in life. I commend the women who took that time to build their own businesses and legacy’s and realized that the time wasn’t a moment to sit in defeat but was the prerequisite to start something new.
