Hi! I'm Betsy Gillespie. I am a mom of 6, ages 18 down to 4. I have been interested in birth work since high school, and am fulfilling my dream of serving mothers during the precious time of motherhood. I have given birth both at home and in a hospital and I believe women should be free to give birth in the location where they feel the most safe. I am certified as a childbirth educator and a birth and postpartum doula through the Madriella Doula Network. I became fascinated with birth during my first pregnancy when a trip to the library introduced me to Sheila Kitzinger, a cultural anthropologist who studied birth around the world. The idea that "American birth" is not the only way opened up a whole new world to me. Since then, I have desired to see women be better informed of their options surrounding birth. What better way to help along this dream than to serve such women as a doula and childbirth educator! I also am very interested in biomechanics - the idea that the way we use our bodies can affect our long term health. So all of my services include a "movement" component, where we cover ideas of alignment, body geometry, and stretches that specifically address issues mothers face during pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

With a deep passion for birth and over 25 years of experience birthing and raising my own children, I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and intuitive presence to your journey into parenthood. As a trained birth and postpartum doula, I offer compassionate support through pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period. My approach is grounded in respect for your choices, evidence-based care, and a deep understanding of the emotional and physical transformations of birth. In addition to my work as a birth doula, I also serve as a birth assistant to a local midwife, giving me valuable hands-on experience in various birth settings. Whether you're seeking guidance in birth preparation, hands-on labor support, or nurturing postpartum care, I am here to ensure you feel supported, informed, and empowered every step of the way. Let’s connect and create a birth experience that honors your unique needs.

Hello, my name is Marina Lark Taylor. I’m a Registered Nurse (RN), a Lactation Consultant, and a Certified Doula. I’m passionate about supporting expecting mothers and their families with both medical knowledge and compassionate, hands-on care. I combine clinical experience with education and encouragement so you can feel informed, confident, and cared for throughout your pregnancy and beyond. During pregnancy, I help you prepare for labor and birth by learning your goals, discussing comfort measures, and supporting you in creating a plan that fits your needs. As a lactation consultant, I also provide early breastfeeding education—such as latch basics, feeding cues, and what to expect in the first days—so you’re not walking into the postpartum season unprepared. As your doula, I’ll offer emotional support, help you communicate your preferences to your care team, and support your partner or support person in knowing how to care for you. In the early postpartum period, I continue to support you as you and your baby get adjusted to this new chapter. I can help with feeding concerns, positioning, and troubleshooting typical challenges, while also offering recovery support and reassurance. My goal is to help you and your family feel steady and supported—so you can focus on healing, bonding, and building routines that work for your home.

Hello! My name is Kaylee and I am a birth doula located in Phoenix, Arizona. I approach pregnancy and birth from a holistic space, believing that these experiences involve your WHOLE self: mind, body, and spirit. I believe birth is less about “powering through” and more about how you work with your body and your emotions. I offer evidence-based care and believe that being educated gives you the best opportunity to make informed decisions for yourself and your baby. I genuinely care about each of my clients and their hopes for their birth. Support is everything in birth. When you have a good team behind you, you’re able to focus on the real work: turning inwards, keeping a regulated nervous system, and surrendering to the process that is birth. If you feel like we may be a good fit, please reach out for a complimentary consultation call! When I’m not supporting my clients, you can find me with my two littles and amazing husband, cooking up delicious meals, painting with acrylics, sewing to my heart’s content (hopefully with a pattern one day), writing satisfactory “to-do” lists, dreaming and planning for the future, and just about everything else!

Hi!!!! My name is Christina, and I am an Afro-Caribbean full-spectrum doula based in Arizona. I am deeply passionate about supporting people through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and reproductive transitions with care that is affirming, culturally rooted, and grounded in reproductive justice. I believe birth and healing are sacred experiences that deserve to be met with compassion, informed choice, and respect for each person’s identity and story. Coming from a background shaped by Afro-Caribbean traditions and community care, my philosophy centers presence, intuition, and advocacy. I strive to create a calm, judgment-free space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to make decisions about their bodies and families. I bring strong communication skills, trauma-informed support, and a steady, grounding presence into my work. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting and dancing — creative practices that keep me connected to my body, rhythm, and rest, and that deeply inform how I show up for the families I support.

A doula will empower and value you, providing confidence and guidance throughout the journey. I believe in the power of prenatal exercises to help balance your body in preparation for birth. These movements not only prepare you physically but will also be incorporated during labor to help your baby move into the optimal position, making the birthing process smoother for both you and your baby, and preparing you for a better recovery postpartum. ​
