Recent review

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.

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.

👋🏼 Welcome. So, you want to learn more about me, my energy, and the services I offer. My journey into birth work has been a long, winding path with many twists and turns. I My formal education was in designing therapeutic environments for children’s hospitals, studying how physical spaces impact healing, safety, and the nervous system. Over time, that work led me somewhere deeper, into the thresholds of birth, death and rebirth. Today, I am in private practice, Aspired Mother, where I offer birth and mother-centered postpartum care services rooted in both modern understanding and time-honored maternal care traditions. For birth preparation, my focus is on strengthening the mind-body connection so you can access efficient, instinctive movement and nervous system regulation during labor. Birth is not something we force, it’s something the body remembers when it feels safe and supported. Through somatic awareness, alignment, and practical preparation, I help you build confidence in your body’s innate design. For postpartum, my Ayurvedic approach extends the midwifery model beyond birth, protecting your long-term recovery and wellbeing. The early weeks after delivery are not just about surviving, they are foundational to your hormonal balance, energy, and emotional health for years to come. Through nourishment, warmth, rest, and hands-on support, I stabilize and restore you at your core. I also facilitate meaningful gatherings and transition support, such as Mother Blessings, Closing of the Bones and postpartum integration sessions , for women who wish to honor this threshold in a grounded and personal way. At the heart of my philosophy is this: Childbirth is not simply medical event. It is a formative life experience. And when a mother is deeply prepared, supported, and protected, the entire family benefits. So, whether you are planning a home birth, birth center experience, or hospital delivery, I believe in shared decision-making, informed choices, and honoring your autonomy every step of the way. I’m here to support you , not to lead you. Not to override you, but to walk beside you. 💛

Doula Brooke, I can truly say that my birth experience was better for having you in it. Until next time, sister 🫶🏼

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.

Инара- приятный в общении человек и хороший специалист своего дела. С первой минуты знакомства с ней было максимально комфортно общаться. Она уточняла как я хочу чтоб прошли роды, какую музыку хочу и даже какие аромасвечи, то, о чем я даже и не задумывалась, но это добавило комфорта и спокойствия в процессе родов. У Инары с собой был целый чемодан всевозможных атрибутов, помогающих расслабиться и снять боль во время схваток. Также она помогала проживать схватки, делая массаж поясницы, объясняла как правильно дышать и что делать во время потуг, помогла правильно приложить малыша к груди и сделала фото и видео процесса родов, по моей просьбе. Когда начались схватки, Инара приехала за мной, и подъехав к госпиталю мне показалось, что схватки были ложными. Тогда мы решили поехать на пляж, сделать пару упражнений и прогуляться, чтоб понять реально ли нам пора в госпиталь, или это ложная тревога. Это был незабываемый вечер на пляже перед родами и потом отличная поддержка во время родов, что бесценно! Особенно, когда ты в чужой стране с не самым лучшим знанием языка, такая поддержка необходима, очень рада, что в такой важный момент Инара была со мной.

Ms. Jen has been my doula for two babies and my terrific experience with her during the first led me to hire her again as soon as I found out I was pregnant with the second! My husband and I are both physicians with fairly demanding schedules hence we needed someone professional and reliable with a track record of excellence and Ms. Jen was that person. Upon our meet and greet with her, we were immediately put at ease and knew our little one was in great hands. Ms. Jen truly loves babies and knows a lot about them! As a first-time mom, Ms. Jen not only provided night care for my little one but provided me with many helpful tips and tricks to master breastfeeding/pumping, sleep training and overall life hacks. These proved invaluable as my second baby was born at 28 weeks requiring preemie experience, and more individualized care. Once again, Ms. Jen stepped on board with a wealth of experience with premature babies providing my husband and I with a lot of support and reassurance especially as I transitioned back to medicine full-time. We certainly could not have done it without her! Now Ms. Jen regularly babysits my 3 and 1 year old, it has been a joy having her grow with our family. My kids adore her and we have recommended her to several phyician friends who have spoken very highly of their experience with her. She was and has continued to be an incredibly asset to our family!

Hello , My name is Mydarline Empress’ and I have had 8 children of my own (non-medicated natural birth , home water birth & Caesarean C-section asleep and awake ). I will be available for assisting in home births with a midwife present, hospital births, and birthing center. As a doula, my deepest motivation is to support birthing parents emotionally, physically, and informationally during one of the most transformative moments of their lives. I believe every person deserves respectful, empowering care — regardless of their birth plan. I am excited to be able to connect with a diverse range of people and birth experiences, which ultimately helps me become a better, more informed, and more compassionate doula as I continue to grow and become even better at what I do. Send me a message, Let’s doula this together. Located in LEE County, and I am willing to assist with any doula support outside of my surrounding area open to discussion.

Empress was a phenomenal doula. I had never had a doula before so I was quite nervous but curious. When she reached out I debated and finally decided why not try it. She has been giving me great advice when it comes to breastfeeding and pumping. She was a good distraction from the anxiety of my birthing experience. She responded promptly and goes above and beyond for her clients. I am very blessed to have her in my life.
