Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Cedar Falls, IA

My name is Chloey, and I am a dedicated doula passionate about supporting birthing families on their unique journeys. I am deeply rooted in our community and committed to providing compassionate care to the CR community. In October 2023, I welcomed my beautiful daughter, Aspen, into the world, an experience that ignited my passion for birth and inspired me to become a doula. Navigating my own birthing journey made me realize the profound impact of having the right support and guidance during such a transformative time. I graduated from the University of Iowa in May 2024 with my bachelors in psychology, and am now on my second year of my bachelors degree in midwifery. My goal is to ensure that every family feels confident, respected, and supported as they bring new life into the world. I am here to help you have your birth, your way and look forward to working with you!

Birth is a beautiful, natural process, but it often seems overwhelming and scary for new parents. I strive to provide information about pregnancy, birth, lactation, newborn care, and the post-partum recovery so that you can determine your personal wishes for your birth journey. As you develop your preferences, I'll assist in the formation of a birth plan that we will use to advocate for your wishes. During birth, I offer emotional and physical support, help with non-pharmacological pain management, act as a birth coach, and advocate for your values in medical situations. With my extensive background in healthcare, I am able to interpret situations and jargon, so that you can understand factors involved and make truly informed decisions for your best birth experience . I have experience in home- and hospital-based birth environments , vaginal and cesarean, low- and high-risk situations. I'm ready to support YOU and your unique wishes as you navigate your childbearing year.

My name is McKenna; I am a birth and postpartum doula. I became a doula in 2023 after the birth of my second child. As too many experience, my birth with my first was not what I had envisioned it to be. This lead me down the path of how disconnected birth has become. After my second child, I started my doula education and set on a path to help families feel supported and educated no matter the circumstance. As a doula, helping mom & baby of course is the main focus, but supporting the partner and/or the whole family unit is another major aspect of my practice as well. Partners are a vital role in the birth, and I focus on this connection between the two. I recognize that giving birth and the postpartum period is more than a medical experience, it is a key life experience and one that will be remembered all your life. This is something I take very seriously and feel very honored to be involved in such a sacred, special life event of yours. Discussing your birth and postpartum goals, concerns and questions help me to understand what is most important to you and allows me to customize your care. As your Doula, I will do my best to educate and support you in the way that you find most beneficial. Like I stated above, this is a major life experience, and I am honored to be a part of it! I look forward to meeting with you, discussing all your birth and postpartum goals and being a part of this transformative time in your life!
