Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Eagle, ID

Hello, My name is Sharina Jensen, and love my life in Idaho! I wear many hats in my life and love each one of them. I am married to my sweetheart and we have 3 beautiful children and 2 dogs! I have worked with supporting families and the unique challenges that a family can face with their children since I was 17. I have also had the opportunity to support couples through infertility to have a family since 2012. I believe that my desire to help build families and through becoming a mother my self has led me to Doula work. I took my training in February 2016 and haven’t looked back! There is so much beauty and excitement in pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. There is also the unexpected and I love being a support to a new family through it all. I am also a Certified Lactation Counselor, (CLC) and am happy to support any lactation needs you may have.

Welcome! My name is Holly Arroyo. I am a certified birth doula (AWWS 2023), NRP (neonatal resuscitation) certified (2025), BLS (basic life support) certified (2026) serving families in the Treasure Valley of Idaho. I am a Bible-believing Jesus follower and I believe that God can use birth to glorify Himself and deepen our faith. I felt called to serving long before I had children, but specifically to the birth world after having my own babies. I have three beautiful children and all three of their births were wildly different. My first baby came into the world via c-section due to being in a frank breech position (head up, bum down). After a failed ECV (external cephalic version) where the doctor attempted to manually flip my baby, a scheduled c-section was recommended. My second baby was an induction and a successful VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean). My third baby was my first out-of-hospital and unmedicated birth-and it was a FAST labor! Although I wish I had a doula for my first baby, I did have an incredible nurse with my second baby (who happened to be a doula for many years prior). She made all the difference for me during that labor and her support was invaluable to me and my husband. My desire is to not only serve other mamas in a similar way, but to be that support that I wish I had from the beginning. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum can be such unpredictable, challenging, and vulnerable seasons and it’s vital to have someone come alongside you to educate, support, and teach you how to advocate for your needs, desires, and the needs of your baby. Having a doula on your birth team is like having a built-in friend and coach all in one. Your doula works for YOU-not your provider or the hospital. Pregnancy, birth, and motherhood is a journey-and I would be honored to come alongside you during yours as your doula!
