In 2024, we were expecting our first child. I was truly nervous as I did not have my mother close to assist me, as a new mom. My sister-in-law gifted me with a doula service. She was very thorough in her research to get me the best help possible so that I will not have to be sad about my mother not being able to make it. So glad she landed onto Nelago’s profile. Nelago took care of our newborn baby like her own. We could not get the baby to calm down but Nelago just had the sweet spirit that our baby would fall asleep in her arms. She knew how to burp her and feed her. All the things we struggled with on our own. If it weren’t for Nelago’s help, I do not know how I would have managed honestly. She gave us the opportunity to have a full night's rest, something newborns do not allow their parents to have. Our baby was thriving under her care. Even after our baby transitioned to eating solids, she would still be helping out with meal plans for her. Nelago is an amazing person I know I can trust my baby and babies to come any day. We nicknamed her “The Baby Whisperer” because of how she just knows how to love and calm babies. She is the best!!!

Hi! I am a birth doula serving Tarrant and Parker counties. I specialize in hospital birth, and have experience with high risk moms, as well as moms who have experienced previous birth, medical, or other trauma. I love empowering and educating moms to be able to make their own confident decisions! I believe that birth support isn’t a luxury service. I am able to break my free up into multiple payments, and can accept HSA. I also work with an organization that might be able to provide a doula at no cost to those who qualify. Contact me today to schedule a free consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you!

I found Cynthia in a panic around 36 weeks pregnant, after my original doula didn’t work out. I had accepted the fact that I wouldn’t have a doula & it was probably too late to find someone. Cynthia heard my story and quickly took me under her wing. She helped me with prepping for labor, gave me tools to get the baby in an optimal position, & as a bonus, became a bff to my toddler! This was my first home birthing experience so I was so thankful she was willing to help me. When it came time that I went into labor, Cynthia was quick to be here & assist me. I labored extremely quick & there is no way I could have handled my wild labor without her. She kept me calm & reminded me I could do it & to breath through the contractions. She helped me clear my head space & stay grounded. I will forever be thankful for Cynthia & highly recommend her! If I decide to have more babies, I will definitely be using her again.

Keeley was an amazing doula, and I would recommend her without hesitation. She is encouraging, calming, and supportive, providing continuous emotional and physical support throughout labor. She gives it to you straight, advocates for your wishes, and adapts when plans change. She went above and beyond both prenatally and postpartum, checking in regularly to make sure everything was going well. Faith is a big part of who she is, and her presence brought a sense of peace and calm to the delivery room. My husband and I loved having Keeley as our doula, and we are so grateful she was part of our birth experience. Thank you, Keeley, for being there through the long hours as we welcomed our baby into the world.

I am a passionate doula and yoga teacher who loves helping people find balance and strength in every stage of life. As a birth and postpartum doula, I specialize in natural births and believe every woman should have the opportunity to birth on her own terms. I provide evidence-based education, emotional support, and hands-on care, empowering families to make informed decisions that align with their values. With a calming presence and deep respect for the birthing process, I ensure each person feels supported, heard, and in control of their experience. Above all, I am a devoted mother who cherishes time with my son. I find joy in the outdoors, spending my free moments with loved ones, on my yoga mat, or enjoying peaceful walks. My mission is to create nurturing, empowering spaces where people can grow, connect, and feel supported on their journey.

Mya is amazing! She did an excellent job going over my options (both in terms of birth interventions and her support measures) and learning my birth desires and preferred comfort measures during prenatal appointments. She took the time to interact with my children so they’d feel comfortable with her coming into our home. Once we knew baby was on the way, she arrived quickly and more than prepared for all my potential needs and desires. When labor was hard, I felt comfortable expressing my feelings, and Mya knew exactly what to do and say to encourage me and physically help me through the discomfort. My mother made it a point to call me the next day and say that Mya has a warm yet calming energy, and that she was impressed with how anticipatory Mya was (noticing when I might need water, a tens unit adjustment, a comb to hold, etc. and acting right away). I even overheard my midwife telling Mya how impressed she was and asking for business cards so she could recommend Mya to her clients. This was my third child and third unmedicated birth, and I can say with confidence that—even as an experienced and thoroughly educated mother—Mya made a significant, positive difference in how I experienced my labor. She was a trusted friend who moved through the experience with me, soothing me, supporting my family, and effortlessly helping to coordinate small details like facilitating pickup with the placenta encapsulator. I appreciated her knowledge, work ethic, and servant’s spirit. If I ever fall pregnant again, I will be hiring Mya, and I highly recommend you do, too.

I am so happy you are here! My name is Laurynn. I am a birthkeeper and student midwife serving families in DFW and surrounding areas. I offer antenatal support through various services including birth and postpartum doula, birth planning, lactation support, and placenta encapsulation. I am happily married to my other half, Colin, and have a daughter, Olive, born at Natural Beginnings Birth Center in 2023 as well as a son, Finn, born at home this past September. I believe that birth is a sacred rite of passage to be respected and honored, I encourage and love the inner wild woman in her most vulnerable space, and I believe in the innate ability and intuitive nature of her body and her baby during the whole process. The birth of my daughter and son have opened doors in my soul that I didn’t know existed, and in response, I have developed an extreme passion for helping women and their families feel empowered, safe, and nurtured during birth. Whether you have had previous birth trauma, you want to achieve your first homebirth, or you want to birth in the hospital, my goal is to have you leaving your experience feeling powerful, happy, accomplished, and that you had a voice that was heard and respected by your provider. I want to set you and your partner up with the tools to take charge of — and ENJOY — your birth as well as provide a space in which you feel the most loved and comfortable to welcome your newest blessing to the world. I’m beyond excited to connect with you, hear your story, and find out more about your desires for your birth!

Laurynn was great! She made my husband and I feel so much better about the birthing process in the weeks leading up to my labor. She was so knowledgeable and we learned so much from her. I opted for a hospital birth and really wanted someone there to advocate for me, and Laurynn did not let us down. At first my husband did not understand why I wanted a doula, but afterwards, he couldn't stop raving about how it was the best money we spent. It was great for him to have someone there supporting both him and I through the process, and it made it a lot less stressful for him. I credit Laurynn to my smooth labor and delivery, and was so grateful for her. She made me feel as comfortable as possible during my labor, and fought for us to try more natural interventions rather than opting for the hospital interventions, and her bag of tricks worked wonders. I'm so grateful for her, and would definitely recommend her to any expecting mothers! I can't wait to use her next time around for my home birth!

First, as a sister and a friend, then as a mother myself, I have seen the medical system sew fear and doubt into women regarding their body's capability to achieve what it was intended to. The truth is, childbirth is both natural and miraculous. I believe that every woman has the right to decide what interventions she wants to use in childbirth without the use of fear, but instead through true informed consent. I continue learning daily how best to help each new mama, both through lived experiences and through research, and will gladly share my knowledge. I also believe that every woman should be supported through the most vulnerable and powerful moment of her life. In a system that pushes women away from their natural state, I am here to be that calming support and fierce advocate.

I am SO grateful to Barbara! She was a trusted guide and resource from the moment she joined my birth team. Barbara advocated for me throughout my hospital birth labor and I ended up with the best birth experience. Barbara's encouragement and her hands-on assistance during delivery gave me the birth experience I had truly prayed for. Barbara provided me and husband confidence and peace of mind throughout my pregnancy and during labor. Barbara literally held me up during the pushing phase! She provided security to me in her advocacy. Barbara empowered me throughout my pregnancy and birth. To have Barbara with you during your pregnancy and birth is truly a gift. I am forever grateful for Barbara. If I am blessed with another pregnancy, I will be asking Barbara to be my doula again. I am full of gratitude for everything Barbara did for me and my family.

LaDereka was and has continued to be our emotional and healthcare question support through pregnancy as a teacher (daddy boot camp), doula and newborn care specialist. She was key to helping us understand our options and what to expect when my pregnancy went from normal and healthy to a diagnosis of gestational hypertension with bed rest at 34 weeks. LaDereka helped us rewrite our birth preferences to accommodate an induction at 37 weeks and led us through the different interventions and natural options we could try before agreeing to an intervention. LaDereka remained by our side through out the labor process as a trusted guide and second opinion with which to weigh the nurse and doctor’s suggestions and feedback. It was great to be able to ask questions and understand the process even when our nurse was attending to other patients. Although we ended up delivering our happy and healthy baby girl via caesarean, I know we tried everything we could have for a natural birth. As our newborn care specialist LaDereka was there on night 1 to ease our transition from hospital to home. Dad is getting to sleep through the night and takes over when her shift ends in the morning and mom is enjoying 8+ hours of sleep each night (with pumping mixed in!). Not only has LaDereka’s care of our newborn allowed us to prioritize sleep and my recovery, she’s a wonderful resource for lactation and all things baby care.

Hi, I'm Lela Mirtl, founder and owner of Birth & Bloom. Postpartum Doula | Newborn Care Specialist | Pediatric Sleep Trainer Through Birth & Bloom, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for growing families during the postpartum period. My work centers on nurturing both parents and newborns while creating a calm, supportive environment that allows families to rest, recover, and build confidence in their new roles. Whether I am providing overnight newborn care, emotional support, education, feeding guidance, or practical household assistance, my goal is always the same: to ensure families feel seen, supported, and never alone. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that every family deserves a village. Modern parenting often comes with unrealistic expectations and limited support systems. New parents are frequently expected to navigate sleep deprivation, physical recovery, feeding challenges, and major life adjustments with little guidance. I believe postpartum care should not be viewed as a luxury, but as an essential part of family wellness. When parents are cared for, they are better equipped to care for their children. I approach each family without judgment and with deep respect for their unique values, goals, and parenting choices. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to newborn care. Every baby is different, every parent is different, and every family's journey is unique. My role is not to replace a parent's instincts, but to strengthen their confidence and provide the knowledge, reassurance, and support they need to trust themselves. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is helping families find balance during a time that can feel overwhelming. I strive to create an atmosphere of calm amid the uncertainty that often accompanies the newborn stage. Through education, encouragement, and hands-on support, I help parents develop sustainable routines, understand their baby's needs, and gain confidence in their abilities. I am passionate about continuous learning and staying informed about current best practices in newborn care, safe sleep, postpartum recovery, infant development, and family wellness. I believe families deserve care that is both compassionate and informed by the latest evidence-based research. At the heart of everything I do is the understanding that postpartum support extends beyond caring for a newborn. It involves caring for the entire family unit. My goal is to help parents feel rested, capable, and supported while fostering a healthy foundation for their growing family. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside families during this special chapter and to provide the guidance, reassurance, and care they need to thrive. Birth & Bloom was founded on the belief that every family deserves compassionate support, trusted guidance, and a gentle beginning. Through personalized care, meaningful connections, and a commitment to excellence, I strive to help families bloom with confidence as they navigate the journey into parenthood.
