Congratulations! My name is Alyssa. I've been a doula since 2013. I became a doula shortly after the birth of my first born when I experienced a tremendous lack of support. I felt alone and isolated and overwhelmed with the contradicting information online. After connecting with other moms within the community, I learned that I wasn't an outlier and this experience was far too common. I studied with Penny Lyon and Ann Pollack in 2013 and became certified with DONA shortly after. Later in 2013, I began working at a local birth center as a midwife assistant to further my medical training. It reaffirmed that I was meant to be a doula serving families within my community. As a certified yoga instructor since 2006, I started integrating Prenatal yoga and doula work. It truly felt like the most comprehensive way to support families by bringing them affective and age old tools to cope with labor pains. Since 2013, I've proudly served over 1000 families. I'm the co-founder of In Joy Birth, a doula training company/agency located in Orlando, Florida. In 2023, I moved my family to the greater Denver area to be close to the mountains where I am currently serving families. I'm passionate about continuing education and am currently working on finishing my Pediatric Sleep Consulting certification. I'm also BLS/CPR certified, and Carrot approved. I work with only one family at a time so that I can provide individualized care to each one of my families.

Alyssa was a part of my dream team for all 3 births of my boys. My husband and I knew we wanted a small intimate birth in a hospital with only our doula, Dr/midwife and the nurses on shift. Each birth, Alyssa supported my husband by telling him how to help me so I was able to stay focused on my labor. I truly feel because of Alyssa and my other dream team members I was able to have 3 beautiful, unmedicated births and recover with no complications. I'm forever grateful for Alyssa's love and support during my birth process as well as support after each birth! She is amazing and you will be so glad to have her by your side during such a vulnerable time.

Hi everyone! I am a certified Doula through Rocky Mountain Doula (CD), a CAPPA-trained Postpartum Doula, and a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT). I live in the Denver Metro area and serve families there through home, birth center, and hospital births. I'm passionate about using my knowledge of anatomy and movement to aid in labor progression and pain management. Ever since I can remember, I have been fascinated with pregnancy, birth, and everything child-care-related. In 2021, I became a personal trainer and specialized in pre/post-natal training. Once I learned about birth doulas, the rest was history! Guiding families through this sacred time is truly my calling. I love using my knowledge of anatomy and movement to aid in labor progression and pain management. I believe that with proper movement, education, and support, women can learn to trust their bodies and understand they were meant for birth. My birth philosophy is about preparing and supporting a woman's mind, body, and soul. Birth can be a powerful and transformative experience that every family should have access to. This is a family’s opportunity to have the birth they've always imagined and relish in the strength that was there all along.

My name is Brooke, owner of MountainMamas Doula Services. I’m really glad you’re here! I am a certified Birth Doula, certified Postpartum Doula, and Newborn Care Specialist. I live in Littleton with my husband and two amazing children! I started in this work 5 1/2 years ago, taking after my mom and primary birth backup, Donna, who recently retired in birth work after 16 years. I am deeply connected to this work and involved with my clients - as much as they want me to be! I take 4 to 5 births per month and up to 1 postpartum client at a time. I would love to chat and see if we’re a good fit!

Recent review

This was my first time with a postpartum doula (3rd baby) and Brooke was truly amazing. I wish every single mama could have Brooke during their 4th trimester. We signed up for a month of morning help, and quickly increased our contract to two months. I'm pretty slow to warm up to people, so the first few days were hard - accepting help is hard! She is so patient and kind, we quickly found a routine. After our contract ended, me and my husband (as well as our 11 and 2yo) would daily remark on how much we missed Brooke. She has a permanent place in my heart and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Having Carson as my doula had a massively positive effect on my pregnancy and delivery experiences. She provided me with educational resources and was always available to answer my questions and to calm my fears. I started my pregnancy not having the confidence to give birth unmedicated, but she continually supported me and helped me realize that I could do it. She was instrumental in helping me have a positive labor and delivery experience. I felt more in control with her there, since I knew she would make sure my wishes were being followed even when I couldn’t speak for myself. She also checked in with me after I gave birth to see if I had any questions or needed any help navigating life as a new mom. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is pregnant. Carson is a truly gifted doula.

Hello everyone, my name is Jenn. I'm a certified birth and postpartum doula serving the Denver metro area. I have always been drawn to birth work and I've chosen to practice as a doula because I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and prepared throughout their birthing journey, regardless of what life path you're on. I'm committed to empowering you to advocate for yourself and your baby, encourage you to attain the birthing experience you want and be there every step of the way to empathize and validate your emotional journey.

Recent review

Discovering I was pregnant at the young age of 19 in January of 2023 was a daunting realization, as it wasn't part of my immediate plans. Uncertainty clouded my thoughts, but I knew I needed guidance regardless of the decision my partner and I made. That's when Jenn stepped in. From the onset of my pregnancy journey, Jenn provided unwavering support, extending beyond childbirth. She offered exceptional advice on nutrition, prepared me for the birthing process, and most importantly, empathized with my emotional journey, understanding my desires for both myself and my child. During labor, Jenn remained a constant presence, offering guidance through every step. From walking the hospital corridors to assisting with pain relief methods and ensuring optimal posture through breathing techniques. Her swift response to my hospital admission due to preeclampsia exemplified her dedication. After 11 hours of labor and 14 minutes of pushing, my beautiful daughter entered the world, and any apprehensions about being a young, first-time mother faded in that moment of pure connection. Jenn's reassuring words were a beacon of strength throughout, reminding me of my capabilities even in moments of doubt. Reflecting on my birthing experience, I am filled with gratitude for Jenn's support. I wholeheartedly endorse her as an exceptional doula, and I am grateful for the opportunity to relive that transformative journey in my mind because of her.

Emily was great, we used her both leading up to and during delivery, as well as during the postpartum period. She was incredibly patient and really spent the time with me as we talked through birth plan options and even helped me curate a maternal mental health plan to prepare for any triggers that may come up post-partum. She also was very readily available over text during those tricky postpartum struggles, and even helped watch our son so my husband and I could have a little date night.

I am also a yoga and meditation teacher and sound healing practitioner passionate about the journey into and through motherhood. I specialize in birth preparation, focusing on inner work, communication, education, bodywork, and balancing for an efficient birth and optimal fetal positioning, including dynamic movement, to support a natural labor and birth process.

I would love to connect and learn more about your path and explore ways I may fully support you during this very special time in your life.

Service: Labor and Birth Doula Context: Father, 2nd Child, 1st at-home birth Despite our preparations, our first birth taught us that we can always know, prepare, and expect more. We met Julie in our doula interviews early in our preparations, and with our first home-birth, we knew we needed someone with the knowledge to build our trust, the confidence to direct when needed, and the serenity to alleviate our anxieties. Julie brought every one of those to the table, and more! During our first birth, I couldn't help but feel like a third-wheel, understanding key parts of the birth, but serving mostly as an observer, with the occasional comforting words. In preparation for our 2nd, Julie offered both live Q&As, and preparatory, informative, and engaging classes, which helped prepare not only my wife, but myself in both what to expect and how to engage with each part of the birth. Rather than only observing, or waiting for direction, I became an active participant, predicting and understanding my wife's needs, while also being able to adapt as needed. As labor's frequently do, ours started late in the night, and with a quick call, Julie assessed the situation and determined to come over to help, even in the early stages. As a doula, she helped guide us into active labor, recognizing when we hit hurdles, and confidently and calmly discussed alternative positions and practices. Serving not only as doula, she frequently provided updates that would help our midwife determine how far along we were, and stayed by Laura's side through delivery! In the interest of time, I'll end with an appreciation of Julie's ability to frequently bridge the gap when all the participants became a little too single-minded; Julie would swoop in, suggesting breaks, and even cooking up some delicious meals! Even afterwards, Julie visited and brought a smorgasbord of home-cooked foods, taking the weight off of running a household, and letting my wife, my children, and myself, take time to simply be with each other. Thank you so much, Julie, for not only being what my wife needed, but helping me to be the same! P.S. For the Mother's perspective, Laura's review should post soon!

I cannot say enough about my doula, Molly. She supported me before and after we learned of our son Waylon’s passing with incredible compassion, patience, and strength. From the very beginning, she was there every single moment I needed her, making sure I never felt alone. Molly helped create the birth space I envisioned, holding it with such care and intention. She made sure everything flowed smoothly and aligned beautifully with my wishes, even in the most heartbreaking of circumstances. Her presence brought comfort, safety, and love in a time that could have felt unbearably heavy. I will always be grateful to Molly for walking alongside me in such a sacred and difficult moment of my life. She is truly a gift to any family she supports.

Emily was an endless source of encouragement. During pregnancy, she helped us navigate our options and feel truly prepared. In the hospital, she was our voice when we felt overwhelmed and made sure our birth plan was respected. The little things, like when we needed intermittent monitoring in the labor room because I wanted to move around or the positions she helped me labor in. She was our voice when we needed it. I had a C-section at the end and it was like having a friend around to hear her encouraging words. She supported my partner too, showing him how he could be there for me. The pictures she took were a icing on the top and made beautiful memories for us. She was the key to having the positive, empowering birth experience we wanted.

Making the investment to have supported Postpartum care, especially from an Ayurvedic perspective was not just exactly what I had wished for, but I cannot FATHOM a greater gift for the health of our newborn child. I felt like a peaceful, supported, and loved Momma through the whole process which truly allowed me to be the most present with our newborn. Emily is an actual angel on earth. I only wish that every single birthing person had this type of postpartum support. Our little one is now 5 months old and I believe WHOLE-HEARTEDLY that his gentle, calm, and happy disposition is a result of the care and safety that I felt postpartum which allowed me to be fully present with him. Emily worked diligently and silently doing all of the big and little things that afforded us as a new family the maximum amount of time together to just marinate in our little love bubble. I didn't have to think (EVER) about what I was going to eat, or if I had hydrated enough, about eating the right things etc. Not only was my belly nourished, but she helped with postpartum massage, belly wrapping, provided a listening ear, and left me with so many helpful herbs, tinctures, and magical Ayurvedic potions. I am forever grateful for my time spent with Emily who I am sure will now be a lifelong friend. Thank you Emily! Infinitely! Your gift is something undeniable. We are FOREVER grateful.

God led me to this work through the transformative births of my own four children, each one shaping my heart and deepening my passion for supporting others through this sacred journey.

Now rooted in Berthoud, Colorado with my husband and our four kids, we soak up every moment we can outdoors—when I’m not holding space for another beautiful birth.

I can't thank Mary enough for all her help during my pregnancy and birth. She recommended stretches to help with debilitating hip discomfort during my third trimester (which totally fixed my issue in a week)! She also helped assist me in the unmedicated waterbirth I had prayed for. She was such a great advocate for me, and her encouragement and knowledge made all the difference. I couldn't have done it without her. Thanks, Mary! God Bless You! -Rachel W.

I’m a Loveland, Colorado-based mother of two wonderful boys, ages 4 and 1. My journey into motherhood began with a medically managed hospital birth, where support during labor and postpartum was limited. Navigating postpartum anxiety, depression, and nursing challenges as a single mother was a deeply formative experience. My second birth—a natural water birth at a birth center attended by midwives and a doula—was profoundly different. It was through that empowering and supported experience that I came to understand the incredible strength of the birthing body, and the vital role that informed, compassionate care plays in a woman’s journey. As I moved through this transformative chapter, I found myself drawn to learning more about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. I became passionate about the power of nurturing, evidence-based support during this sacred transition. That path ultimately led me to doula work, where I feel deeply called to walk alongside women as they move through one of the most powerful experiences of their lives.

My name is Rowan Hawkins (she/they), and I bring nearly three decades of living, working, and learning into my work as a Birth, Postpartum, and Death doula specializing with miscarriages and stillborn births. I am also a traveling CO notary public, folk harper, and mother of my one-and-only rainbow baby (who was born via medically necessary C-section). My career path has been eclectic—spanning universities, hospitality, medical offices, and finance—but in every role, I found myself drawn to supporting others, keeping things organized, and creating calm in the middle of complexity. I hold a bachelor’s degree in science with a minor in anthropology, and I’ve always been fascinated by the ways we care for one another. As a doula, I support: ~ Non-religious practices first ~ Skin-to-skin as much as humanly possible ~ Breast is preferred, but fed is best ~ Cesarean births are natural births ~ Abortion is healthcare ~ Vaccines save lives ~ Advocacy, knowledge, and empowerment for all ~ Death is natural and healthy to discuss I also encourage open-book business practices! Have a question about my pricing? Please ask!
