I had an incredible experience with MotheRetreat. Olga was my birth doula and her presence made a huge difference during labor. She was calm and very supportive. She also helped my partner stay focused and involved, which meant a lot to both of us. Her experience and guidance gave me the confidence I needed, and I truly don’t know how I would’ve done it without her. I highly recommend MotheRetreat to anyone looking for experienced, compassionate birth support.

I believe birth is a sacred, God-given gift—a natural, physiological process that reflects the original design of women and babies: women are capable of giving birth, and babies know how to be born. My name is Monica Alejandra Latorre, and I am deeply passionate about women’s wellness, birth, and motherhood. As a traditional, faith-based birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, newborn care specialist, and fertility awareness educator, I bring over nine years of experience walking alongside women and families through life’s most tender transitions. My vocation is to mother the mother: supporting women as they reconnect with their innate feminine wisdom, dignity, and God-given strength. I believe birth is a holy rite of passage, and it is a profound honor to serve women and their families in these sacred spaces. With deep reverence, I offer my presence, guidance, and resources so that each mother feels supported, informed, and confident as she moves through her unique journey. It is a privilege to be invited into a mother’s birth story, to hold space with tenderness, and to walk alongside her through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My deepest hope is that every mother I serve finds her voice, trusts her intuition, and feels deeply connected to her body, her birth, and her baby.

Alejandra was an angel sent to us. I was so nervous about the post partum period. Alejandra made the experience calm and less intimidating. She cared for our baby as if she was family so we could recuperate. She also made me homemade post partum teas and sitz bath. She offered both emotional and practical support. She is trained in both evidence based care and indigenous care which I think offers the best of all worlds. Her calming energy made us feel so comfortable in our baby bubble and calmed our beutiful baby. I would 1000% recommend.

My name is Haley, and I am a dedicated Pediatric and Neonatal Registered Nurse (BSN, RN) with over seven years of specialized experience in both Pediatric Intensive Care (PICU) and Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU) settings. Originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I now reside in South Beach, Miami, where I’ve continued my passion for newborn and pediatric care in a more personalized setting. Since transitioning from the hospital to in-home care, I have proudly served as a trusted Newborn Night Nurse and Nanny for families locally and I am open to families in Miami Beach, Fisher Island, the Trio of Islands (Star, Hibiscus, and Palm), and the Downtown/Brickell area. I provide overnight or daylight newborn care, feeding support, postpartum recovery and infant wellness guidance tailored to each family’s unique needs. My credentials include current CPR/BLS and PALS certifications, STABLE certification for neonatal post-resuscitation stabilization, and specialized training with Dr. Brown’s Infant-Driven Feeding™ (IDF) framework. I am also currently pursuing my certification as a Newborn Sleep Consultant, expanding my services to include evidence-based sleep training support.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working alongside Haley at our specialty hospital, which includes both a step-down NICU and PICU. Haley joined our team as a travel nurse and made a seamless transition into her role—immediately becoming a valued and trusted member of the unit. Personally, Haley was an incredible support to me during a time when I was returning to the bedside after time away. Without hesitation, she took me under her wing, guiding me through current best practices and reinforcing a strong foundation in safe, evidence-based care. Haley’s compassion is evident in every interaction she has—with patients, families, and colleagues. She is a gifted teacher who takes time to educate parents navigating complex medical situations, all while being approachable and non-judgmental. Her ability to explain, support, and reassure makes her an invaluable resource, especially for first-time parents, NICU graduates, or those caring for medically fragile children. If Haley can expertly manage the needs of 3 to 5 ill infants and children during a shift, it’s clear she can handle anything that comes her way in a home environment. I would strongly recommend her to any family—whether they are welcoming a new baby, adjusting to life with a NICU graduate, or simply in need of skilled support for peace of mind to promote restful sleep. Haley is a nurse you can trust wholeheartedly—with both clinical excellence and compassionate care at the core of everything she does.

My name is Dayna, and I’ve been walking with women and families through pregnancy and birth for over 20 years. I’m a certified Doula, a Childbirth Educator, and a lay midwife by training, currently practicing as a Doula in Miami, Florida. My philosophy centers around honoring the sacred nature of birth while supporting families with evidence-based care, emotional presence, and deep respect for their individual choices. I believe birth is a powerful, transformative experience, and my role is to offer unwavering support, informed guidance, and a calming presence as each family moves through it. I trust in the wisdom of the body, the power of informed decision-making, and the importance of compassionate, judgment-free care.

Recent review

Working with Dayna was one of the best decisions I made for my birth. She made me feel calm, prepared, and cared for throughout my entire 3rd trimester and the labor and birth. When I chose to get an epidural she supported me completely, never once making me feel judged. Instead, she helped ease my fears and gave me the confidence to trust my decision. During labor, Dayna was exactly the steady presence I needed. She reminded me to breathe, encouraged me when I felt overwhelmed, and knew when to step in with guidance and when to simply hold space. She even helped me change positions, like getting on my hands and knees even WITH the epidural! Because of her, I felt safe and supported through the whole process. If you want a doula who respects your choices and makes you feel truly cared for, I can’t recommend Dayna enough.

Choosing Dayna as my doula was one of the most empowering decisions I made during my pregnancy. I was planning a freebirth and wanted someone by my side who not only respected my autonomy, but also deeply understood the spiritual and instinctual nature of birth. Dayna was that person—and so much more. From the beginning, she held space for my choices without judgment. She offered guidance rooted in wisdom, experience, and deep trust in the birthing process. Her presence gave me the confidence to lean fully into my body and my baby, knowing I was never alone in the journey—even though I chose to birth without medical assistance. Dayna was calm, intuitive, and hands-off in the best way, always available when I needed her but never imposing. She brought peace into the space and honored every aspect of my process, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. If you’re seeking someone who will walk beside you with reverence, respect, and belief in your power, Dayna is that guide. She doesn’t just support birth—she honors it as sacred. I am forever grateful.
