I hired Jessica as my birth doula for my third baby. I did not have a doula for my first two births, but this time I wanted another person on my side to advocate for me and help with pain management. Jessica did amazing job at making sure I was informed about all my options and gave me confidence to stand my ground when pressured from hospital staff. Jessica provided me with stretches/exercises to help facilitate labor, gave massages and applied counter-pressure during contractions, and gave me encouragement when I needed it. This was by far my best birth experience and I am so thankful to Jessica for making that happen!

My name is Caroline and I am a certified birth doula serving Lakeland, Florida. I am passionate about providing calm, compassionate, inclusive support to pregnant people before, during, and after birth by providing information and resources, as well as emotional and physical support. My goals are to help you seek out evidence based information, preparing you to be an empowered decision maker; offer encouragement to advocate for yourself, no matter what type of birth you choose; utilize different tools and resources to support you physically in labor; and lastly, but most importantly, hold space for you. I believe in collaboration with my local birth community to best support my clients by having access to referrals, recommendations, and additional resources. A little about me: I am married to my high school sweetheart and we welcomed our first baby girl to our family in 2023. When I am not at births, I am working at the Montessori School as a part time sub, caring for my daughter, or enjoying quality time with my family.

Laurine was absolutely fantastic. She is extremely responsible, prompt, and very hard-working. In the short time that she helped us with our son, she helped us with her knowledge of sleep training and could not have been more loving and warm towards our newborn. She was extremely helpful in the downtime when the baby was sleeping with things that I needed help with which made my life so much easier. I would highly recommend her!

I am beyond happy that I found Brandie!! She did my placenta encapsulation for me. She picked up my placenta from the hospital and delivered the capsules to my home along with some super sweet gifts. She is very caring, sweet and knowledgeable person with great energy. She helped me with all my questions and stayed in touch throughout my pregnancy and after. If you are looking for a doula or a person to do placenta encapsulation, cream (salve) or placenta art, she is the one!!!!! Will be recommending her to my friends!! Thank you Brandie.

Hi, I’m Elizabeth—a mother, wife, and passionate Doula and Childbirth Educator based in Saint Petersburg, serving families throughout Pinellas County. My journey into birth work began after experiencing two very different pregnancies and births of my own. Those experiences inspired me to support, guide, and empower other parents throughout their own unique paths to parenthood. I truly believe that childbirth is a fascinating and transformative process. My goal is to help every birthing person feel heard, supported, and in control—no matter what kind of birth they envision. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of witnessing many births and listening to countless stories. These experiences have deepened my understanding and strengthened my ability to support families from pregnancy through postpartum. Whether you’re looking for education, emotional support, or hands-on guidance, I’m here to walk beside you every step of the way.

Giselle was wonderful to our child. In many ways, she could comfort him better than we could. She helped us at such a critical stage and we learned so much from her.

My name is Allison and I am your Unconquered Mama. I am a wife and mother to two beautiful little girls. It was during my first pregnancy that I started to have a desire to get into birth work. I noticed right away that pregnant and postpartum Mamas needed much more support than they were getting. Immediately after my traumatic pregnancy and postpartum period with my youngest daughter I knew it was time for me to step into a new role; so I became a Doula and Breastfeeding Educator so that no other Mama would have to go through the struggles that I went through. I want to help every Mama feel the way I did when I broke through my struggles and emerged UNCONQUERED!
