My name is MaKaila and I am 25 years old and I graduated from GCU April 2022 with a major in Exercise Science with an emphasis in sports performance. I am currently back in online school working on my pre-requisites to apply for nursing school next year. I worked part-time as a nanny while in school to a family my first year and a half of babysitting. I started when their daughter was 1.5 years and their son was 1-month-old. I finished when their son was 1.5 year and their daughter was 3. I have been working with the Busy Bee Babysitting company since September 2020. With that company I have worked with children of all ages. From as little as 1-month-old to as old as 11 years old. I have watched as many as 7 children at one time by myself. I just finished working as a night nanny for a precious 10 week old! Currently I help out with a family in the mornings for a few hours with their 3 year old and 1 month old. I assist the mom with morning feedings, diaper changes, getting the toddler off to school and hanging out with baby afterwards. Along with babysitting I also can help with school drop-off/pick-up, homework help, practice drop offs, weekend outings, and things around the house. I hope to be meeting you soon!

I (she/her) worked for several years in the field of community mental health before relocating to the Pacfic NW for medical school. I am a graduate of Bastyr University and completed a 2-year post-graduate training program in integrative women’s health. I am credentialed by NAMS as a certified menopause practitioner, ABORM as a fellow of oriental reproductive medicine, and PSI in perinatal mood & anxiety disorders as a prescriber: the only physician to have this combination of education & training. In fact, I am the only naturopathic physician in the state of AZ to be certified as a women’s health specialist. I have been in clinical practice since 2003 with a special focus on women’s health; emphasizing nutrition and exercise in health maintenance and disease prevention and treatment. I am committed to the mental and physical health of women of all ages and I believe that our goal for health & wellness is a matter of progress, not perfection. Education and empowerment can help us take a proactive, preventive approach to the treatment of any condition.

Hello! I'm a mother of two wonderful teens, 17 and 13. I'm in my final year of persuing my bachelors in nursing. I have experience as a birth doula before I began school and loved doing that work. I'm not currently in a position to be on call in the same way as I prefer to be for those clients so I'm transitioning into postpartum and night nurse care. I am certified in BLS for healthcare providers, fully vaccinated, and I have a level 1 Arizona fingerprint clearance card. I'm highly knowledgeable in infant and child care from my experience with babies and children from a young age, work as a doula, and having two children of my own. I have experience with multiples on various occasions. Additionally, my training in the healthcare field gives me the knowledge to skillfully care for and protect your greatest treasure.

A doula will empower and value you, providing confidence and guidance throughout the journey. I believe in the power of prenatal exercises to help balance your body in preparation for birth. These movements not only prepare you physically but will also be incorporated during labor to help your baby move into the optimal position, making the birthing process smoother for both you and your baby, and preparing you for a better recovery postpartum. ​

I am a physical therapist and mother to an energetic toddler. My passion is to help other women heal as well as help my patients find balance creating achievable health and fitness goals. I specifically love working with the parental and post partum populations, helping to guide women through this amazing but often overwhelming and challenging time of their life. I strive to give my patients the tools to empower and educate theirselves, and rock the transition from pregnancy to motherhood!

As a mom myself, I understand how imperative it is to have emotional support throughout the journey of motherhood, from adoption or pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. I remember the early days of bonding with my children, while also feeling overwhelmed with loneliness and guilt about making the right decisions as a parent. With appropriate support, I was able to create a space to be present with my children, while also taking care of myself to find peace, clarity and purpose. Regardless of the age of our children, we never stop being a mother. My personal journey and professional education have led me to my work with mothers and their families. I am passionate about helping mothers to reach their full potential and learn to trust their own voice and decisions. I am also an active member of Postpartum Support International and have received a certificate in Maternal Mental Health. My couples therapy training in The Gottman Method is beneficial in helping partners find new ways of connection and intimacy throughout this transition. You don’t have to go through this alone, I am here to help you achieve emotional health and wellness and to lead with confidence in this experience of parenthood.

I have 4 years of experience in a professional childcare center and 10 years of experience babysitting. I have worked with children birth to age 12 and children with special needs.
