Hi! My name is Shauna and I am a DONA International Certified Birth Doula, as well as a Bradley Method® Provisional Affiliate Instructor located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago - Woodstock to be exact. It is my honor to support families that are giving birth in home, birth center and hospital settings. After working for five years in obstetrics and gynecology, I knew I wanted to be more involved in supporting women throughout their pregnancy and birth journeys. I 100% believe all women should be supported and have the right to birth as they want, whatever that looks like for them. I believe women's bodies are remarkable and amazing. As a mom of three myself, I know first hand the power a woman's body has, from growing a baby, to delivering that baby, and then to be able to nourish that baby. I started the rigorous training with The Bradley Method® to become a provisional affiliate instructor in 2025, and will be teaching classes in June 2026 in Lakewood, IL. In my free time, I enjoy going on walks with my husband and our two dogs. I also enjoy reading and staying up-to-date on all things pregnancy, birth and lactation related.

Shauna will be with me for every birth! As a FTM I don’t think I could have done it without her. Her care transformed my birth story. During pregnancy she was constantly checking in on me. During labor, her support got me through the toughest back contractions and 54 hours of labor. The best part of having Shauna on my team was the postpartum support. She again was constantly checking in on me and baby. She answered all of my questions with care and love. You want Shauna on your side!

Hi, I'm Evelyn – a mama to two beautiful kids, a nature lover, and an advocate for women. While I didn’t plan to become a doula or childbirth educator, I now know that it’s my true calling. Growing up in a close-knit Mexican household, I was always drawn to community and mentorship, especially for girls. After earning my degrees in psychology and Spanish, I worked with survivors of human trafficking, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. Becoming a mom ignited my deep curiosity about pregnancy and birth. I became fascinated by the process, eager to learn everything about labor and advocate for my own birth experience. After having profoundly empowering births, I realized that every woman deserves a birth that is powerful and free from trauma. This curiosity soon grew into a passion for supporting other women in my community. In my journey as a home visitor, working with Spanish-speaking moms, I saw firsthand the lack of resources and perinatal education available to them. It fueled my desire to help these women advocate for themselves, find their voice, and feel empowered in their birth experiences. After the birth of my daughter, I took a step back to reflect on my passions, and that’s when I discovered the amazing combination of doula and childbirth educator. And so, La Vid was born – a community for mothers to feel rooted and empowered, from pregnancy through motherhood. I believe in the strength and connection of women, and my mission is to empower you through your entire journey, so you never have to walk alone.

One of the things that I loved the most was that Evelyn offered online birthing classes on Saturdays. This was my 3rd pregnancy and I had never attended any birthing class. Knowing what to expect for birth, I was amazed at how much she goes over in her classes that the content is real and raw. Before my birth she set time to get to know my birth stories, know me, and discuss her role as my doula. I really appreciated that she listened without any judgement. Evelyn always listened to my concerns and actually validated them. In the last weeks of pregnancy, she would check on me and give me tips to be ready for when it was time to head to the hospital. Her words and knowledge would always calm my nerves and anxiety. During my birth, she was ready to help me voice out my needs and was not afraid to roll up her sleeves to help. She provides so many words of affirmation and was part of my successful birth. I would definitely recommend Evelyn to any mom looking for a doula. She is also so kind, humble, and really knows what it takes for a mama to birth.

Shauna was absolutely amazing throughout our entire birth experience, and we truly could not have asked for a better doula. From the very beginning, she was supportive, caring, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. She made us feel comfortable, heard, and reassured every step of the way. One of the things I am most grateful for was how Shauna helped make sure our voices were heard. When I was sent for an early induction at 37 weeks—something I personally felt wasn’t necessary—Shauna never made the decision for me. Instead, she helped me understand my options, ask the right questions, advocate for myself, and feel confident in making an informed decision that felt right for me and my family. She gave me the confidence to recognize when I was no longer comfortable with my provider and office and ultimately make the difficult decision to leave and seek care elsewhere. That decision led us to an incredible experience with our second provider and hospital, where we felt respected, supported, and truly listened to. I honestly don’t know if I would have had the confidence to make that change without Shauna’s guidance and support. She supported not only me, but my husband as well, making sure we both felt confident, informed, and involved throughout the entire process. Her calm presence, compassion, and ability to advocate alongside us made such a meaningful difference. Shauna went above and beyond for our family, and we will always be grateful that she was there during such an important and emotional time in our lives. She helped us feel empowered rather than overwhelmed, and she reminded us that we deserved to have a voice in our own birth experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shauna to anyone looking for a doula who is compassionate, knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in her clients. She was an incredible part of our journey, and we will always appreciate everything she did for us. ❤️

It’s been such a comfort to have Maggie’s support these past few weeks with our (preemie) newborn! My husband and I have been able to nap and run errands knowing our daughter is in great care. My only change is that I wish we would’ve connected with Maggie sooner in postpartum!
