Hi! My name is Stephanie McElhaney and I am a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula located in Mesa, Arizona. I have been fascinated by birth and the magnificence of our bodies since I was a teen. I believe that birth can be beautiful when we prepare our bodies and minds for the experience and have the knowledge to make decisions out of confidence and not fear.

I’m here to make you feel empowered, supported, and heard through your journey of birth and postpartum. This is my mission due to my birth and postpartum experiences. I had a traumatic first birth that ended in an emergency c-section. Postpartum Recovery was even more difficult without the support I truly needed. When I was ready to try for a second baby, I miscarried. It took a lot out of me, to get the answers I needed to explain why I miscarried and to find a provider who was going to be safe for me. I knew I wanted a doula and the right birth team that would support me through a VBAC. My team heard me and created space for me to achieve a dream birth!

Joeley is a Childbirth International Doula graduate. She has always been known to encourage + love people. Afterall, her friends call her their biggest “hype girl!” Her children gave her three different birth experiences: her rainbow baby and second baby were both in a hospital in California and then had her third baby at a birth center in Arizona. When she had her third child at a birth center, she discovered the world of midwives + natural support.

Hi, I'm Janelle Moore, labor and postpartum doula serving families east and west valley. I entered the world of birthwork early 2023 as a loved one of mine stepped into her motherhood journey. She entered strong, encouraged, prepared, and yet looking for support, a listening ear, advocacy, and someone to lean on in that process. Something inside her knew what I think every mom knows, that every couple deserves support, every couple deserves an advocate, and every couple deserves evidence based education surrounding their options and each decision that they may anticipate to make for their birth and little one in labor and delivery. In supporting her that day a new passion sparked inside me to see every mom supported, held, strengthened and empowered as they shine bringing life into the world. That spark has grown day by day since. I am passionate about evidence based education leading up to birth that will empower parents to make fully informed decisions as are best for their family. I am passionate about supporting first-time parents as they embark on a new journey, and I am passionate that birth should be a beautifully empowering experience in which mom is supported through and through, never alone, discovering in each moment the depth of strength that she's carried all along. If you've landed on this page and would like to learn more please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to an opportunity to meet you, to chat and to hear more of your heart for your birth, little one, and/or postpartum journey.

My name is Gosia (Gosha). I’m an independent Slavic traditional ‘grandmother” midwife – to be with a woman and for women. I developed and matured with other sisters and women into where I am today. My road was long and winding, but it brought me a gift of enormous experience as a woman, mother, and Midwife. I transformed from a CNM hospital midwife to a CPM midwife to finally be reborn as an independent midwife who is with a woman and connects intuitively, energetically, and spiritually with the surrounding world. I had the privilege of transforming on the Old and New Continent; I am deeply connected with my intuition, love, and women’s power to serve other women fully.

It is my life’s mission to change the labor and delivery world and help give families the birth they envision and help navigate the chaos so you feel safe, knowledgeable and comfortable throughout this beautiful journey. It isn’t always easy and sometimes feels impossible but you’re amazing and strong!!!!

Since 2018, I have received training from Sista Midwife Productions, The B.L.A.C.K Course, Cihuapactli Collective and in community. Outside of birthwork, I enjoy diving into fermentation projects, spending time with loved ones, and expanding my knowledge in current hyperfixations.

I am passionate in assisting women as a doula and placenta encapsulation preparer. Birth work is sacred and my role is to empower women, to help them feel safe, seen, and understood. Each birth is unique and the birth experience is an expression of that uniqueness.

I am a Birth Doula who educates, supports and coaches women and their families throughout the childbirth process. I believe that all women and babies deserve the dignity of a joy filled birth. The goal of childbirth should not only be to survive but to thrive in labor. Birth is intimate, vulnerable and sacred and you deserve bedside hands-on care that makes you feel important and loved. Mamma you are strong, beautiful and a vessel that brings forth new life. It is my mission to educate and support you with those truths in mind. Your body was made for this!

Hello! My name is jabria but I go by Rosalind. It was a nickname given to me in the Army. My background is 12 years of medicine as a medic in the Army. I am still serving in the Army national guard. I have my certified personal training certification and group fitness certification; and I am currently enrolled in exercise physiology through Concordia University, in pursuit of practicing medicine as a physician assistant upon completion of my bachelors in Fall 2026; and masters hopefully 2028. I pursued becoming a doula because I have always been passionate about women’s health. In fact, I took up personal training because I wanted to help women in postpartum combat depression and snap back to theirselves. I witnessed many friends struggle with taking the army physical fitness test and figured there had to be some way to be of some impact for all women who may deal with this, in either their career or daily life. Being a doula is important to me because I believe that women need more support in child birth and labor. I want to be apart of breaking the stigma with childbirth being painful and scary. I want to be apart of making childbirth more comfortable and a beautiful experience for women. I also believe with my expertise that I could offer packages that benefit women physically and mentally pre and post partum.

I’m Paty, a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, proudly serving families across the Phoenix area and West Valley — including Goodyear, Buckeye, Litchfield Park, Avondale, Glendale, Surprise, Peoria, and Tolleson. As a bilingual (English–Spanish) doula with a degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Curriculum and Instruction, I bring both heart and knowledge into my care. My background allows me to support families not just physically, but emotionally and educationally — helping them feel calm, confident, empowered and deeply connected throughout their journey. Since I was a little girl, I’ve dreamed of working in maternal health care. Becoming a doula is truly the fulfillment of that dream — a calling that lets me serve families during one of life’s most transformative seasons. As a mother of four, including two children I birthed myself, I understand the beauty, vulnerability, and sacredness of giving birth. My mission is to walk beside you — to remind you that you are capable, strong, and deserving of care, respect, and love. At Madre Moon Doula, I honor the mind, body, and spirit of every birthing person. Together, we’ll embrace the sacredness of bringing new life into the world — one birth, one heartbeat, and one moon phase at a time. 🌕

I’m Fenyx Williams, founder of Nesting in You; a Maternity Holistic Practice. I work with pregnant and postpartum women who refuse to just survive this season and are ready to move through it with intention, clarity, and self-trust. Pregnancy gets three trimesters with clear expectations. Postpartum gets six weeks and silence. I built Nesting in You to change that. Through holistic one-on-one support, I walk women from early pregnancy through the full postpartum year, through the physical recovery, the identity shifts, the emotions nobody prepares you for, and the process of becoming a mom who knows herself on the other side of it. I am a mom of four girls. I know this road. And I built the practice I wish had existed when I was walking it. The goal is never your dependency. The goal is always your self-trust.

I'm Teresa Estilow, an inclusive postpartum doula and Dare to Birth childbirth educator supporting the Phoenix and East Valley areas.

I have given birth to all 8 of our beautiful children, 5 girls, and 3 boys, they are now ages 10-26. I have always been a stay home mom. I absolutely love babies, and children. I have over 26 years of experience, and I am also a certified postpartum doula. I would love to help you on your amazing journey into motherhood.
