At Rooted in Care, we believe families deserve honest information, steady support, and the space to make decisions that truly align with their values. We understand that navigating pregnancy and birth can feel complex, especially within healthcare systems that don’t always leave room for meaningful conversation or clarity. Our role as doulas is to walk alongside you with calm, knowledgeable support. We provide evidence-based information, emotional reassurance, and practical comfort so you feel confident in your choices—whether you are planning a hospital birth, navigating medical complexities, or exploring alternative care options. We believe in balance. Rooted in Care supports collaboration with medical providers while also centering your right to informed consent and respectful care. We don’t approach birth from fear or from blind trust, but from understanding—helping you feel grounded, prepared, and supported through each stage of the process. Families often choose Rooted in Care when they want a doula who listens closely, communicates clearly, and remains steady in moments that feel uncertain. We are committed to showing up with integrity, presence, and compassion before, during, and after birth. Rooted in Care may not be the right fit for everyone—and that’s okay. The families we work with value honesty, professionalism, and a support person who is both nurturing and well-informed. If that’s what you’re seeking, we would be honored to support you on your journey.

I am a Full Spectrum Birth and Postpartum Doula in Austin, TX trained through Doula Trainings International. I work with families throughout the birth process to create supportive care and systems so you feel empowered and educated throughout the entire birth process, as well as supported and cared for during the postpartum period. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQIA+ families and those who are in different stages of the birth process, including miscarriage and loss. Previously, I entered a software engineering career through working to design technologies for individuals with traumatic brain injuries in hospital settings, but after hearing about several friends and family members' birth and doula experiences, I decided I wanted a more caretaking and embodied role in creating equitable change and creating peaceful, embodied, and inclusive experiences for families. In my free time, I love to make art, chat over a latte, go for a lake swim, and see live music with friends.

Amelia is a DONA trained birth doula (2019) from Minnesota. She holds a BA in Global Studies with emphasis on South American studies and Global Public Health.

She is passionate about advocating for families and following their lead as they go through this transformational experience.

I became a birth doula because I am in awe of the strength and wisdom of women. It is an honor to help you tune into the wisdom of your body, and to support your family as they learn how to support you. I help you find your breath when things get big. I remind your partner how to hold you. I help create a quiet, womb-like space—dim lights, soft sounds, warm water, and anything else that helps you feel safe, grounded, and undisturbed. I attend home births, birth centers, and hospital births. Wherever you feel safe is the right place to have your baby. My job is to help regulate the space, so that you can surrender. I offer peace of mind, solid education, and steady presence so you can meet this experience with courage. My care is personalized and client-led. I follow your rhythm. My approach is grounded in the belief that women already have everything they need within them to safely and instinctively bring their babies into the world. Whether this is your first baby or your sixth, your birth matters. Each one is a new journey, a new chance to grow and expand and meet yourself in a whole new way.

"A family-driven venture born from the profound experience of our own home birth, we empower and support birthing individuals by offering education, care, and unwavering guidance for your unique childbirth journey." — Chey & Cree Kitoko

I am a queer parent to two kiddos, certified full spectrum doula, and student midwife through the National College of Midwifery. I’m an Austin native and my family and I live in South Austin with our small zoo of pets. My call to birth work was awakened through my own birthing experience which broke me open and sparked transformation in me. My passion and connection to this work deepened through the process of navigating fertility treatments, conception with donor sperm, logistical challenges of second parent adoption, and the unique emotions of being a non-gestational parent to our daughter and sitting in the role of partner to the pregnant/birthing parent. I’m passionate about supporting all of the unique flavors people and families come in, especially LGBTQIA+ families like my own.

​​​​As a Birth Doula, Postpartum Doula, and Parenting Educator, I believe my calling is to help families find their own unique path to parenthood. A mother and stepmom myself, I offer an open heart and a listening ear – along with my extensive training – to provide nurturing, compassionate, nonjudgmental, and inclusive care and education for all kinds of families. Based upon your family’s personal needs and values, I will help you create your perfect birth team, tap into your own strength and voice, and feel empowered to make the best choices for yourself and your growing family. I believe the childbearing year – before, during, and after the birth event – is an awesome opportunity to bring joy and light into the world and into your life. My mission and my passion is delivering that experience for you and your family through custom, private childbirth classes, parenting education, birth doula and postpartum doula support.

I am Drea Kelly, the founder of River Wild Doula Services, and I am so happy you're here! I'd love to share a bit of my story in hopes of someday hearing some of yours. ​ It has been my joy and privilege to partner with families as a doula for the past 18 years, serving them as they make some of the biggest transitions in life. I have always known I was called to this work... to hold space in the sacred, in-between places where we are transformed by the rivers running wild through us. It is such an honor to be invited onto this holy ground. ​ I believe parents have innate wisdom and intuition that can and should be trusted as they navigate the myriad of decisions in the childbearing year and beyond. As your doula I am here to be your guide and coach through those decisions, while providing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual support you need along the way. I started River Wild with the prayer that families would be able to access the kind of care that empowered them to birth their way and raise their families with confidence. ​ I live in Cedar Park, Texas with my incredible husband who stays home with our three delicious kiddos full-time. Family hikes, cozy evenings and a good card game are just a few of our favorite things. I am currently studying to become a midwife and I am thrilled to bring this elevated level of knowledge and care to my doula families as I train in this deeper wisdom of "being with woman". ​ I can't wait to chat and hear your story!
