Michaela (Mikki) Bell is the face behind TheDoulaBell and has really been preparing for this gifting her whole life. She jokes, "The first doula client I ever had was a momma sheep out on our family friend's farm in Colorado when I was 9 years old. That was the first birth I ever participated in and since then, I've been so enthralled with birth in every form." Mikki's real journey to becoming a doula began with the birth of her firstborn, Jensen. She states that having a doula herself changed her whole perception about what birth is really like and what the human body is capable of. She says "My doula really helped me achieve what I hoped for in childbirth. She supported all of my decisions and was just that constant reassuring presence of someone who knows birth. Birth is hard and sometimes scary and I think it's absolutely essential to have someone that the birthing person and her partner can rely on and who can help them achieve their goals and dreams on potentially one of the most memorable days of their lives." ​ Mikki has been able to work with parents in all types of birth settings, deliveries with OB's in the operating room and with midwives at home in a bedroom, and for parents of twins, singletons, and for IVF and VBAC families. Without a doubt, you will feel supported in every way during your pregnancy, labor and birth if you decide to hire Mikki, TheDoulaBell.

Im 19 and recently finished getting my certification as a Holistic Pregnancy and Birth Practitioner. I have been a nanny for a little over two years and I really enjoy the work and kiddos. I started with one of the families while they were pregnant with baby number 2 and was able to offer mom the chance to rest or spend 1:1 time with baby and I really enjoyed it. With my recent training I am hoping to use it and get into become a birth/postpartum doula. I want to offer my services and a lower price while I help with my first births and learn what to fully expect outside of the classroom. I feel more connected to postpartum work and being able to nurture the parents, whether that be pre-birth to “nest” for baby, find meals to prep/cook postpartum, basic housework like dishes and laundry and even some potential grocery shopping for those first few weeks when it’s not ideal to take baby out. I like to create a judgement free zone and am open to all styles of life but am more in the middle of lightly holistic and following modern medicine and recommendations but I am ultimately here to support parents decision.

Hi there! I’m Jalisa Burton, co-founder of Divine Birthing Services and a proud Full Spectrum Doula and Certified Effective Black Parenting Educator.

Nikki is incredible! I met her when I was into my third trimester with my first. She was kind, knowledgeable, and hilarious. We trained together in preparation for labor, birth, and postpartum recovery. It wasn’t just about physical strength, endurance, and control, but mental endurance and also down-regulation during times of stress. I also had the opportunity to train with her during my fourth trimester to help heal my pelvic floor and diastasis. Having a safe space for new moms and their babes was such a blessing. I can’t wait for Round 2!!

Hello! My name is Diane Lim and I am a postpartum doula. I have two children of my own - two beautiful baby boys. I became interested in postpartum doula care when I was going through the postpartum season with my firstborn. I just thought to myself how there isn't enough support for women who are going through the biggest transition of their lives! I want moms of all life stages to feel supported and cared for.

Recent review

I received postpartum care from Diane with my firstborn and I'm so thankful I did! She was at my home 4 nights a week to take care of my newborn overnight while my husband and I got some much needed sleep. I only woke up to feed the baby as I was breastfeeding and Diane would burp, diaper, and put him back to sleep. I'm so glad I decided to take care of myself during this huge life changing transition.

As the founder of MamaBPT and mother of two girls, I have increasingly become passionate towards helping women through physical therapy. I started my career working with the general public in orthopedics and sports recovery. However, soon after I gave birth to my first daughter, I became interested in pelvic health physical therapy. Through my own recovery and specialized training, I learned to help other women achieve their pelvic health and overall physical goals.

Dr Joy is amazing. She’s caring and attentive. I started seeing her during my 4th pregnancy and have continued seeing her postpartum. She has helped me immensely and I recommend her to every pregnant or postpartum mama!

I hired Alex as my birth doula and postpartum doula. I really couldn't have done labor without her. She was so calm and level-headed and helped my husband know what was going on. After the baby came home she how to take care of me so that I could take care of our daughter. It was simple things but it meant the world to me.

Diane was my doula with my first baby and she was amazing. She took care of the baby so I could get some extra sleep at night and she also took care of me, whether it was helping me with pumping or swaddling. I feel like she gave me the tools to take care of my newborn and to be okay once she left. I can’t recommend her enough.

Hi! My name is Sara, I am a Registered Nurse (RN-BSN) and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I am also a mother of two and a military spouse. When breastfeeding both of my children I was not prepared for all of the issues that could occur! Milk supply concerns, pumping when returning to work, clogged ducts, fussy baby, the list goes on! I have years of experience in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as well as the Newborn Nursery. Being a nurse and working with babies is where I am meant to be! While working in the NICU I found my passion for helping breastfeeding mothers. So I decided to study to become a Lactation Consultant. This allowed me to provide the best care for mothers and babies struggling with lactation issues. I absolutely LOVE being able to assist mothers initiate breastfeeding with their babies in the hospital setting. But I know when you leave the hospital some new challenges may arise. When the nurses and Lactation Consultants can’t be at your bedside, who do you call? Well I am here to help!
