I cannot recommend Inara Arauz enough! From the moment she became part of our journey, she brought so much warmth, compassion, and reassurance during both my birth and postpartum experience. As my birth doula, Inara was incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and calming. She helped me feel informed, empowered, and cared for every step of the way. Her presence made such a meaningful difference during one of the most important moments of my life. As my postpartum doula, Inara continued to go above and beyond. She was so sweet, kind, and unbelievably patient with my baby girl. Watching the love and gentle care she showed my daughter gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to rest knowing she was in the very best hands. She also offered encouragement, guidance, and support when I needed it most as a new mom. I also want to give a special thank you to Laila, who cared for us as my postpartum doula on several nights. She was equally kind, compassionate, and attentive, and I always felt confident leaving my baby girl in her care. Her calm presence and genuine love for babies made those nights so much easier for our family. Both Inara and Laila have hearts of gold, and I am forever grateful for everything they did for our family. If you’re looking for a birth or postpartum doula who is experienced, caring, and truly passionate about what they do, I wholeheartedly recommend them. They made such a positive impact on our lives, and we will always cherish the support they gave us during this special time.

Hi, I’m Mariela a Certified Birth Doula (DONA), Postpartum Doula, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Newborn Care Specialist, and Childbirth Educator with 19 years of experience supporting mothers, babies, and families. Originally from Argentina and based in Miami, I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese. My experience includes 10 years working in hospital maternity and NICU settings, which allows me to combine professional knowledge with compassionate, personalized care. Being a doula is more than my profession it is truly who I am. I believe every mother deserves to feel heard, respected, supported, and never judged throughout pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum. My role is to provide evidence-based information, emotional and physical support, and practical guidance while honoring each family’s individual preferences. I want every mother I accompany to feel confident in her decisions, connected to her baby, and supported as she discovers her own strength and intuition. My services include: • Birth doula support • Postpartum and overnight care • Newborn care and parental education • Prenatal and childbirth education • Prenatal breastfeeding preparation • In-home and virtual lactation consultations • Comprehensive mother and baby feeding assessments • Personalized feeding plans and follow-up support As an IBCLC, I am especially passionate about helping mothers and babies build a comfortable and nurturing feeding relationship. I support families with latching difficulties, nipple pain, milk supply concerns, pumping, bottle-feeding, combination feeding, and many other breastfeeding and infant-feeding challenges. Every family’s journey is unique, and my care is always respectful, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs. I would be honored to accompany you during this beautiful and transformative chapter of your life. We can begin with a complimentary phone call to discuss your needs and explore how I can best support your family. 💕

I’m so grateful to have had her as my doula! From the very beginning, I felt very comfortable with her, and I always appreciated the consultations and all the knowledge she shared with me. Whenever I had a question or concern, I could send her a message, and she was always so responsive and helpful. Her guidance gave me so much peace of mind, especially during those moments when I wasn’t sure if I was doing things right. Thanks to her support and advice, I also feel that I had a much better experience with breastfeeding and building my milk supply. I highly recommend her to any new mom looking for someone knowledgeable, caring, supportive, and always willing to help.

Hi, I’m Genesis, a DONA Certified Birth Doula, CD(DONA), serving Miami-Dade and Broward County , and providing support in both English and Spanish. I believe there is no one “right” way to give birth. Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, VBAC, or cesarean birth, you deserve evidence-based information, compassionate support, and a birth team that respects your choices. Over the past year, I’ve supported 20 births across South Florida, including unmedicated and medicated births, inductions, cesarean births, and successful VBACs. Every one of those experiences has reinforced something I deeply believe: good doula support isn’t about achieving a particular type of birth. It’s about helping you feel informed, supported, respected, and confident throughout yours. As your birth doula, I provide continuous labor support, birth education, emotional and physical support, comfort measures, breathing and positioning techniques, partner support, and guidance as you explore your birth options and preferences. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to help you feel prepared to make informed decisions that are right for you and your family. As a Latina mother myself, creating a space where families feel seen, heard, and understood is especially important to me. I also love involving partners and family members, helping them feel confident and prepared to support you throughout labor rather than feeling like they have to figure it all out on their own. My goal is simple: for you to look back on your birth knowing that you were supported, respected, informed, and never alone. I’d be honored to be part of your birth story.

We had such a great experience with her as our doula. She made the hospital room feel so much warmer and more relaxing with the lighting and music, and her support throughout labor was exactly what we needed. But definitely my favorite parts is that she also captured beautiful photos of such a special day without taking away from the moment. I’m so thankful to have those memories and would absolutely recommend her.

I have lived in Florida all my life. My happy place is by the ocean listening to the waves. I am married to my college sweetheart and we have 3 beautiful, wild boys. I became fascinated by the magic and mechanics of birth during my first pregnancy in 2013. I had an emergency c-section followed by medicated and unmedicated vaginal births in 2016 and 2019. For all three, I had the same doula by my side sharing her 30+ years of wisdom. In 2023, I formalized my training and certifications and have been focusing on doula work full-time. Aside from parenting my sons, it is my biggest privilege and joy to serve mothers in this vulnerable time, and I look forward to knowing and serving you during your journey. I strongly believe it is the right of the birthing person to choose whatever path is right for them. Every body, baby and pregnancy is different. If you choose me to be by your side, my promise is to help you and your partner bring that vision to life. Knowing birth can be unpredictable, I will do everything I can to ensure you feel safe, loved, empowered and strong every step of the way. I would love to talk with you about your wishes for your birth. Get in touch with me today to set up a free consultation.

I cannot recommend Amanda enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly nurturing, comforting, and supportive. She made me feel heard, reassured, and cared for throughout the entire experience. Her calm presence brought so much comfort during every stage of the process. She always knew just what to say or do to help me feel at ease, and her encouragement gave me confidence when I needed it most. Knowing she was by my side made the entire experience feel less overwhelming and so much more positive. If you're looking for a doula who genuinely cares about her clients, provides unwavering support, and will be your biggest advocate, I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda. I am so grateful to have had her by my side and couldn't imagine my birth experience without her.

Hey Parents ~ Labor, Delivery & Postpartum is such a crazy time of your life; it's multiple things happening all at once & you feel like at times you might be spiraling out of control. What should be a time of intense joy can sometimes lead to feeling out of control. As a birth & labor doula, I know that having extra support both emotional & physically can bring peace of mind. Also knowing that your doula comes with a plethora of resources and extra support services is invaluable. Let me discuss with you how a labor & postpartum doula can benefit you so that you can enjoy this season of life with a new little one.

We had an amazing experience with The Doula Fource! I truly can’t say enough good things about our birth doula, Chvana. From the very beginning, she was reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly kind. She made us feel supported and confident throughout the entire process. When my birth plan unexpectedly changed and I had to be induced, Chvana came to the hospital as soon as I called. Her calm presence, encouragement, and unwavering support became the backbone of my labor experience. Thanks to her guidance and reassurance, I was able to achieve my dream of having an unmedicated birth despite the unexpected induction. She advocated for us, helped me stay focused through every stage of labor, and gave both my partner and me the confidence we needed during such an important moment. We are so grateful to Chvana and The Doula Fource for helping make the birth of our babygirl such a positive and empowering experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend The Doula Fource to any expecting family looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doulas.

In May of 2022 my husband and I witnessed the birth of our second baby girl, at home in total bliss. My husband was involved in hands on appointments in our home, tailored to us where he got to learn about maternal health, how to support /affirm your partner during pregnancy—and he delivered our baby alongside Midwife Kim, confident with her guidance. Not only did Midwife Kim-deliver an outstanding beside manner, traveling to and from our home for detailed, hands on visits where we discussed healthy habits for the type of birth we have in mind, birthing options, birthing challenges etc but she also saved my life. Following my peaceful, serene water birth at our home-a 12 hour labor, I encountered an unforeseen medical emergency where Midwife Kim stood 10 toes down to ensure that I made it through. She acted swiftly to cover the basics and make sure I was comfortable, ensured our baby was well and then made a call to 911. Here is where her policy came into place-we can’t have a baby unless we can get you to hospital quickly if something happens. And it did. Her actions while awaiting the ambulance saved me from bleeding out, panicking and going into shock. It didn’t end there, her team cared for my family while I was away being cared for at the hospital post birth. She stayed with me through an uneasy procedure and became my advocate. I would not be here if it were not for the fierce compassion and the wisdom of Midwife Kimberly. I am grateful for her work and the knowledge she fed me as a mother and the ways she supported me post birth and into my postpartum period. She is a true pioneer in the birthing world and if you are medically able to-this is an experience you’ll definitely want to have.

I am a certified postpartum doula. I have been married for 23 years and am a mother of four children, 8-20. As a longtime homeschooling family, we enjoy traveling, exploring nature, and seeking out new adventures together. Motherhood has been one of my greatest joys in life, and it is what first sparked my love of caring for newborns and supporting new families. I truly enjoy helping parents feel confident and supported as they welcome a new baby. Whether is caring for a newborn, offering reassurance to a tired mother, or helping families settle into their new routines, it is an honor to walk alongside parents during such a special season of life.

I have known Lindsay as both a close friend and as a parent, and I can confidently speak to her character and the qualities she brings to her work supporting families during the postpartum period. In my experience, she is consistently caring, loving, and deeply supportive of the people around her. She is someone who shows up reliably and follows through on what she says she will do, which speaks strongly to her dependability and integrity. She is attentive and thoughtful in her relationships, often anticipating the needs of others and offering support in a steady, grounded way. As a mother, I have seen her demonstrate patience, warmth, and a calm, nurturing presence with her own children. She is intentional in how she cares for her family, and she brings a strong sense of responsibility and compassion into her home life.

My philosophies are gentle based, centralized in giving children the comfort, confidence, and respect they need to outgrow old techniques and hit developmental milestones.

My husband and I were so lucky to have been supported by Brittany along with another doula as we prepared for the birth of our baby boy. She was an invaluable source of knowledge, encouragement, and support at a time when everything felt unknown and new. We had a really helpful prenatal check-in at our home, where she evaluated and gave some great advice for our baby’s sleeping space. When I was in labor, Brittany was there with us at the hospital to help assist the whole night through delivery. She brought warmth, humor, and helped create a peaceful ambiance in the room. Then, a few weeks after delivery, she came back to our home to check on us, and oh my goodness what a godsend that visit was! In her gentle and direct way, she kindly gave us some sleep coaching advice and helped us create some much-needed structure and routine. We credit her with helping us get on the path to great sleep for our baby. (He started sleeping the entire night by 11 weeks!) We had such a great experience with Brittany the entire way through. Many thanks.

Alejandra Latorre Popular: among the most-viewed doulas in Florida, last 60 days

I believe birth is a sacred, God-given gift—a natural, physiological process that reflects the original design of women and babies: women are capable of giving birth, and babies know how to be born. My name is Monica Alejandra Latorre, and I am deeply passionate about women’s wellness, birth, and motherhood. As a traditional, faith-based birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, newborn care specialist, and fertility awareness educator, I bring over nine years of experience walking alongside women and families through life’s most tender transitions. My vocation is to mother the mother: supporting women as they reconnect with their innate feminine wisdom, dignity, and God-given strength. I believe birth is a holy rite of passage, and it is a profound honor to serve women and their families in these sacred spaces. With deep reverence, I offer my presence, guidance, and resources so that each mother feels supported, informed, and confident as she moves through her unique journey. It is a privilege to be invited into a mother’s birth story, to hold space with tenderness, and to walk alongside her through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My deepest hope is that every mother I serve finds her voice, trusts her intuition, and feels deeply connected to her body, her birth, and her baby.

Alejandra is fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable, kind, and warm. She was the perfect person to guide my husband and I during such an important and intimate chapter of our lives. Bilingual and didnt skip a beat. She knew the hospital, our OB, and got along great with the nurses - she was the perfect liaison for when we needed one. It was important for me to have someone of the Catholic faith guide me during such a life chaning moment and she was exactly what I was looking for. After interviewing over 15 Doulas, I knew Alejandra was the one the minute we finished our initial consultation. She exceeded our expectations and overdelivered. I most certainly will be using her services again for our next baby!

I highly recommend Esther and her company. She exceeds expectations. She was compassionate, kind, caring, and extremely knowledgeable. Childbirth is a highly personal and important part of your life. Esther was right there for the family to support this precious journey. She was always available and connected us to others in the community, which was helpful. Fun facts 1. She graduated top of her class at a rigorous pre-medical program in high school 2. She also attend University of Miami on a scholarship 3. She is a mother of 4 very healthy boys 4. She speaks multiple languages 5. She has connections all throughout Miami Dade, which is helpful for a new mom 6. She's not just available before and during birth, she is available AFTER birth as well. 7. She has connections to midwives, physicians, and community leaders 8. She will support you throughout the entire birthing process. This is critical. 9. She is highly communicative - if you message her, you will get a response 10. She has a deep understanding of the human body given her background as a UM grad and high school medical program. She is a sweet and kind person as well. Her work has been featured throughout the country, and she is considered an expert in her field. She mentors other doulas and is a successful business woman, but she will still make you feel like a priority despite her busy schedule. You will never feel like a number. In your most intimate moment of life, you want someone who is there for you. Your child is your most important asset, do not leave it to chance. As I close this, I want to mention that Esther understands breastfeeding. Breastfeeding and pumping takes intention, strategy, and planning. Having a doula who is also a breastfeeding expert is extremely helpful and saves money down the line (no formula if that's your desire). As someone who is extremely discerning about services, I whole heartedly recommend Esther and you won't be disappointed.
