Amazing Support – A True Blessing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Joanna Guzman. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. She provided not only expert knowledge and guidance but also incredible emotional support throughout my pregnancy, labor journey. During my delivery, Joanna was my rock—calm, reassuring, and always one step ahead, anticipating my needs before I even voiced them. She helped me feel empowered, confident, and safe throughout the entire process. Her warmth, patience, and dedication made all the difference, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her. If you are looking for a compassionate, skilled, and incredibly supportive doula, I highly recommend Joanna .She is a gift to any family welcoming a new baby!

Drina went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and prepared for the day! I was freaking out because at 41 weeks my baby still hadn't come and i was due for induction. My first baby was also induced, and because of the pitocin i begged for an epidural and ended up with a catheter, more stitches, longer recovery, lasting back pain, etc. The first induction took 21 hours. Yesterday i had my second baby via pitocin induction without an epidural! My dream come true. It was painful but she kept me in the zone. She had me laughing and oozing oxytocin and just going with the pain. It was like out of a movie. The nurses were saying that i had the kind of birth they read about in textbooks but never see up close in person. I started pitocin at 11:45am and baby was here by 3:13pm. Having Drina there was such a game changer. I would 100% recommend her and have her there at any future births as long as she’s willing. I am eternally grateful.

My name is Virginia Parent. I am a Doula and Night Nanny located in Venice, Florida. I have been a Doula for the last 5 years serving families from Lakewood Ranch, Myakka city, to Fort Myers. I believe all families deserve to have a supported birth experience. As a mother of 4, I have experienced two hospital births, one which was an induction and a NICU baby; and I have experienced two midwife supported water births. I have formula fed, exclusively pumped, and exclusively breastfed. My large range of personal experience helps me to remind my clients that birth has a wide range of normal and allows me to relate, personally, to clients no matter how they choose to give birth. I am here to help mother's experience a cozy and welcoming journey into their new roles as mothers and as a family. I am trained as a Postpartum Doula and have recently shifted into Night Nanny work. I am focused on providing parents with the best sleep they can get during the transitional times of being a new parent for the first time or the 5th time. This includes providing breastfeeding, bottle feeding, and pumping support, providing support through sleep regressions, schedules, and following the parents lead for their ideal sleep situations. I also offer breastfeeding and pumping support in small sessions to help with scheduling, latch issues (within normal range), and assisting when baby maybe struggling with growth. I love the work that I do because it helps support parents through some of the most trying and vulnerable times of their parenthood journey. I hope you consider me for your next journey through parenthood. I am an LLC, CPR/First Aid Certified, and Insured.

Hi, I’m Alexa Thode—founder of Ground & Grow Birth Co. and a certified prenatal and labor doula, postpartum and infant care doula, and childbirth educator, serving families across Tampa Bay, Florida. I believe birth is sacred, and no one should have to walk through it alone.

My approach is holistic, nurturing, and deeply personal. I offer guidance with comfort measures, birth planning, lactation, newborn care, and postpartum healing—while creating space for families to feel heard, empowered, and supported. Whether you’re planning your first birth or adding another little one to your family, I’m here to help you feel grounded and grow through each step. Let’s connect and explore how I can best support you.

Recent review

For someone as neurotic as me, Alexa helped make my birthing process sooooo much better. Alexa listened with intention and care, validating every single one of my concerns and quirks with warmth and professionalism. She honored my birth plan with immaculate precision (down to every little detail I had mapped out) and still managed to create a nurturing, peaceful, and empowering space that helped me feel safe, supported, and seen. Alexa brought both calm and confidence into the delivery room. Her presence is so grounding and calm! Which is exactly what I needed (and she knew). I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who blends knowledge with soulful, heart-centered support, Alexa is a perfect doula for you.

About Me I’m a birth and postpartum doula who believes every family deserves to feel seen, supported, and fully in control of their birthing experience. My approach is grounded in warmth, respect, and deep listening. I honor each parent’s unique vision—whether they want an unmedicated birth, an epidural or a planned cesarean. My goal is to create a space where you feel informed, empowered, and truly cared for during one of the most transformative times of your life. How I Support My Clients I offer 2–3 prenatal visits where we get to know each other, explore your birth preferences, practice comfort measures, and help you feel confident heading into labor. Throughout your birth, I’m there with steady, calm support—physically, emotionally, and informationally—always following your lead and advocating for what matters most to you. After your baby arrives, I provide a postpartum visit to help you settle in, debrief your birth if you’d like, and make sure you feel supported as you navigate early parenthood. My care adapts to your needs; whatever you want your birth and postpartum journey to look like, I’m there to walk beside you.

I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea! She’s incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to the families she supports. Even when my delivery ended in a C-section, she stayed with me and continued to offer so much emotional and physical support. Her calm and caring energy made my experience so much more positive. If you’re looking for a doula who genuinely cares, Chelsea is the one!

From the moment we started working with Sophia at Devout Doula Services, it was clear that we had made the right decision. She not only provided us with emotional and physical support but also with an incredible depth of knowledge and resources that empowered us throughout our birth. She was there for us every step of the way, from early pregnancy to postpartum, offering guidance on everything from nutrition to birth plans. Sophia respected and listened to our wishes, ensuring that we felt heard, seen, and genuinely cared for. The personalized tips and continuous availability via text and calls helped alleviate our anxieties. The prenatal visits were not only informative but also incredibly reassuring. During labor, She advocated for us with the medical staff, ensuring that all actions were in our best interest. Her support was not just professional but deeply personal. We recommend Sophia without reservation to anyone looking for a doula who will respect, empower, and support you throughout your birthing process.
