Hello, my name is Amanda, I am a firm believer that birth is not a one size fits all event, and that mothers should have access to the information they need to make their birth experience their own. I believe in the ability for all births to be a positive experience for mom and baby, and as a doula I aim to be the catalyst to aid in that goal.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support I received from my doula, Valentina, throughout my pregnancy and birth. From the very beginning, Valentina was a source of unwavering encouragement, knowledge, and comfort. During my pregnancy, Valentina provided invaluable guidance on everything from prenatal care to preparing for the baby's arrival. She was always available to answer my questions, no matter how big or small, and she made sure I felt confident and informed every step of the way. Her warmth and empathy made me feel truly cared for, and her expertise gave me the peace of mind I needed. As my due date approached, I had a strong desire to achieve a natural birth. Valentina was instrumental in helping me make this dream a reality. She offered evidence-based advice on natural birth techniques and helped me create a birth plan that aligned with my goals. During labor, Valentina was a calming and reassuring presence, providing both emotional support and practical assistance. She used various comfort measures, such as massages, counter pressures and breathing techniques, to help me manage the intensity of labor. Thanks to Valentina's support, I was able to have the natural birth I had hoped for. Her belief in my ability to birth naturally and her unwavering support made all the difference. I felt empowered and strong throughout the entire process, and I couldn't have done it without her. Valentina is not just a doula; she is a true advocate and has also become a life long friend. Her dedication to her clients is evident in everything she does. I highly recommend Valentina to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive doula. She made and continues to make a profound impact on my pregnancy as I am expecting my second baby. I will be forever grateful for her presence in my life.

Soy una Puertorriqueña que busca orientar y educar a la mujer embarazada y a su acompañante en cuanto al embarazo, parto, nacimiento y posparto. Reconociendo que el embarazo y el parto son un proceso natural y fisiologico en el cual la mujer y su bebe son los protagonistas. Sin embargo, la sociedad actual en la que vivimos ha establecido un 'Sistema' que le impone a la mujer procedimientos y protocolos rutinarios quitandole la confianza en ella misma e interfiriendo con la naturaleza del proceso. Actualmente existe un problema serio de salud publica y falta de recursos educativos llevando a una mayor incidencia de inducciones y cesareas. Me dirijo a la población Hispana con el proposito de romper los mitos y tabues en nuestra cultura Latina. Orientado, guiando, y educando a la mujer y su acompañante brindando las herramientas necesarias para que pueda tomar decisiones informadas en cuanto a su proceso. Creando y buscando la humanzacion de un parto respetado y comprometiendome con la Familia a ofrecer un servicio satisfactorio y de excelencia. Mi mision, es que la mujer sea la protagonista de su proceso, que sea ella quien tome las decisiones y que posea un grato recuerdo de esa maravillosa experiencia.

Hi! My name is Joricely, I am a certified Birth & Postparum Doula. Having birthed two children of my own in & out of the hospital system, I quickly discovered the challenges between expecting families and healthcare providers. My goal is to provide evidence based education so that the families I support feel confident in making informed decisions for themselves and their baby. I believe that birth is a sacred experience and it should be treated as such !

Recent review

Being a 3rd time mom and not previously using any support other than my obgyn and others in the medical field for my pregnancies i thought i had it all down packed as far as my plan through out pregnancy & labor. Until i ran into Jori with Madre Doula and she helped me understand that there’s so much more options out there than what your doctors offer you. That you’re not obligated to schedule an induction or a C-section at 40 weeks. That our bodies know exactly what it is doing. She helped me become better informed about all my options. She helped me come up with my entire birth plan According to what made ME feel comfortable despite what the doctors recommended or wanted to force upon me. She showed up during the active labor part of labor to make sure my birth plan was being stuck to and she made sure that i was feeling comfortable, and being supported. We forget how much pain & in a daze you can be and your mind can be in when it’s all happening. This is why you honestly need someone To be able to be there to advocate for you and your choices. I loved having her as my peace of mind. With her as my doula It didn’t end at labor, She also made sure to check up on me post partum and see how everything was going. I still had so many new questions that came up for me although having experience child birth before and she was able to provide me with support & comfort. Again I’d recommend her over and over again. For experienced moms and first time moms!

My name is Keisha Knight and I would proudly like to recommend Bianca Taylor. It has been a privilege to work with Bianca . She has been hardworking, caring, and reliable since day one. She has been a huge help to me during my journey into motherhood. She has a great understanding of the needs and abilities of my children. The best part was that she understood that even though the girls were twins they were also their own person as well as having their on personalities. Biance was always punctual, reliable, and flexible with her schedule. She was also highly organized, and her attention to detail was impeccable. She kept detailed records of the children's activities, meals, and milestones, which I greatly appreciated. The time Bianca was with my family are treasured memories and I am most grateful for her contribution to our lives.

Trauma-Informed Birth & Postpartum Doula + Mind-Body Birth Support Specialist - serving sensitive souls, trauma survivors & diverse families with holistic, inclusive care. Virtual support worldwide | In-person in Philadelphia, Florida & travel throughout US I believe in care that meets you exactly where you are - honoring both the profound transformation and messy reality of reproductive experiences. As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner in Training with a psychology background, I offer trauma-informed doula care that integrates nervous system regulation and mind-body birth support, going beyond logistics to address the emotional complexity, relationship dynamics, and identity shifts that accompany life-changing transitions. After navigating my own pregnancy experiences with minimal support and feeling dismissed by medical systems that couldn't hold the complexity of mind/body connection, I became passionate about offering the embodied, compassionate support I needed, but couldn't find. My approach centers on the emotional and relational complexities of becoming parents - drawing from over a decade of therapy-informed intimacy and relationship coaching to focus on the psychological and somatic shifts that come with growing a family. I specialize in supporting empaths, sensitive souls, gentle rebels, and those seeking heart-centered, evidence-based, identity-affirming care that honors their full humanity. Whether you're seeking birth doula support, postpartum care, pregnancy loss support, or prenatal preparation, I provide grounding support through nervous system regulation, practical advocacy, body-based somatic tools, and steady, non-judgmental presence that helps you stay connected to your own wisdom while navigating medical systems and profound personal transformation.

Recent review

From the moment we connected, Lorrae created a space where I felt genuinely seen, affirmed, and supported in ways that are unfortunately rare in healthcare settings. During my pregnancy, she consistently prioritized my needs, choices, and comfort over any agenda, and did not push me toward any particular protocol or outcome. Lorrae is exactly the kind of practitioner our community needs. She combines professional skill with authentic compassion, and her nervous system regulation tools became invaluable during both labor and postpartum. She has a gift for creating calm in moments of intensity. Beyond her clinical skills, Lorrae embodies genuine care and integrity and I cannot recommend her highly enough to other parents seeking support.

Hi there ! My name is Miatta and I would love to assist in your family’s postpartum journey. I am caring, nurturing and enjoy assisting with newborn care, family adjustment, emotional and physical recovery from birth and so much more. I look forward to hearing about how I can help you and your family.

Recent review

Miatta was fantastic and very caring oriented to what I needed after I had my daughter Sophia. I am a new single mom who had no one to support or be there for me. I was honored to have Mia by my side during the birth of my daughter. She provided me with meals through the day and evening, even made some to freeze for when I would be doing things on my own. She helped with night feedings, diaper changes, assisted with helping me heal from after birth by providing baths and showers. She helped with getting us to our appointments and taking part in those. She was very encouraging and always had a positive attitude towards me when I would be feeling at my lowest and discouraged when it came trying to get my little one to latch on for nursing. The care and attentiveness she gave Sophia and I was more than I expected and could have asked for from anyone else. I could not have asked for a better person to help in my recovery and postpartum care that first week home from the hospital.

Hi, I’m Payton I’m a full spectrum doula who supports families through fertility, birth, postpartum, abortion, and loss. My heart work is helping women step into their innate power and knowledge so they can birth confidently and autonomously. In postpartum, I find joy in nurturing and nourishing mama so she can focus on healing and rediscovering herself. My goal is to bring back community care, traditional healing practices, and ancient wisdom.

Recent review

We were so fortunate to have Payton with us during our triplet girls’ first year of life. She began as our overnight doula when they were newborns and later transitioned into their full-time nanny while we worked. Caring for three babies at once is no small task, yet Payton handled it with consistency, dependability, and so much love. She has a calm, soft-spoken presence that was incredibly comforting in those early months. Her experience with newborns truly stood out as she seemed to know exactly what each baby needed and provided the highest level of care. Beyond caring for the girls, she also kept our kitchen tidy and made sure supplies were always stocked, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders as new parents. What stood out most was the joy Payton clearly took in caring for the girls, and how much they adored her in return. The bond she formed with them was so special, and we always felt complete peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. We are deeply grateful for her support during such an important season of our lives and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Hello, I’m Menita Aka Nita , a certified doula and the heart behind Royal Goddess Doula. With a background in childcare. I’ve spent the last year and half passionately supporting families through one of life’s most transformative experiences: bringing a new soul into the world. My journey into doula work was inspired by my two best friends and their journey to motherhood and support and scary situations they were in during labor and delivery . I realized that every family’s birthing journey is profoundly unique and deserves individualized emotional, physical, and informational support. I offer a variety of services tailored to your needs, including prenatal consultations, continuous labor support, and postpartum care. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practice and a deep respect for the natural process of childbirth. I aim to provide a nurturing, safe, and empowering environment for you and your family, helping you make informed choices that align with your personal birth plan. I’d be honored to be a part of your birthing team and support you in creating the birth experience you desire.

Menita is an incredible doula. She truly brings you comfort, confidence, charisma and makes you feel like the Goddess you are. Having her for your birth experience is incredible, she sets up an ambience of warmth, soothing music, dim lights and just the right amount of encouragement to bring the beautiful life into the world. Not only does she support you and guide you through prenatal care, labor and delivery, she also tenderly cares for you during postpartum. When you need that nurturing and empathy the most, she is right by your side. I Highly recommend to have Menita as your doula.

Assisting others in feeling safe, supported, and empowered throughout their birth is my passion and I would love nothing more than to do so for you! I provide emotional, informational, and physical support for every birth type whether that be in a hospital, birth center, or homebirth setting. I believe it's important each person find the right fit for them, so I provide a free meet & greet interview to all potential clients. Every mom deserves a doula, and every baby deserves a peaceful and happy welcome on their birthday.

Jayde is a true gem in the world of birth support, and her presence can truly make a difference in your birthing experience. I recently welcomed my baby girl unmedicated, in the quiet environment of my own home. I couldn’t have done this without the unwavering support of Jayde as my doula. Jayde is nothing short of phenomenal. Since the first day we met, she showed up prepared to listen, understand my needs, talk over my fears and doubts, and offered many resources to prepare for D-day and postpartum. During the birthing process, Jayde knew how to guide me to follow intuitively what my body needed, offered various options to ease and soothe the labor intensity. Her repeated affirmations and physical strength supported me in pushing through many physical and mental edges of labor. She also skillfully created a space that allowed my partner to actively participate while providing the physical cues and mental strength needed to navigate the process. Jayde is selfless; she is fully present and focused on supporting her clients. This, and more, makes her an outstanding, reliable doula to add to your team.

Kristin Bunch is a true inspiration and a helpful person. She genuinely cares about how her energy affects others, to a point while she will read the room and I appreciate that. We didn’t always match well with physical touch, as I am a more reserved person who monitors who she allows to touch her. It was different with a doula who loves hugs and being loving at all times, which in the end was all I needed to warm my heart. I swear her personality and persistence makes her a true treasure and an angel to this world. I appreciate and respect you for all you have done for me and my family! Much love, TaMarria
