Ronae Cleland

Hello, and thank you for visiting my page! My name is Ronae (pronounced like the more commonly spelled "Renee"), and I am a Certified Birth Doula and Certified Lactation Specialist located in Fort Wayne, IN. I have always been passionate about serving and encouraging other women. Through my own parenting journey over the years, I have developed an avid interest in all things birth and breastfeeding. I have been a certified Birth Doula since 2020 through ICEA and Global Birth Community and have been a Certified Lactation Specialist (CLS through LEC) since 2021. I have experience in supporting births in hospitals, in birth centers, and at home. I believe that women have a right to nonjudgmental encouragement and support throughout their birth story, whatever they choose and wherever it takes them. I feel it is especially important for birth workers to empower women to understand their options in pregnancy and birth so they are able to provide true informed consent, playing an active role in their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences.

We decided to have our fourth child late in life and hired Ronae as our doula, it was the best decision we made! Ronae was knowledgeable and a great resource planning our labor and delivery. Her guidance, reassurance, and attentive presence made the experience smoother and more empowering. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner through this pivotal moment in our lives.

I am the founder and creator of Appointed Time Doula Services. I am a graduate of Dona International where I attained my Birth Doula Certification. It is paramount to me that my clients feel as welcome and as cared for as though they were members of my own family, in comparison to being a part of an uncaring system. The most rewarding aspect of my ministry is the opportunity to witness a new life come forth into this world. This priceless moment allows me to develop a unique relationship with each family.

Ms. Robin is an intelligent, inspiring, and God-fearing woman. These traits were important to my wife and I when we were looking for a doula. The greek meaning of doula is a "woman who serves". The orgin of this word exemplifies the heart posture a doula must have. And for me that would be a woman who is God-fearing. Ms. Robin's, spirtual assertiveness is unmatched, but I would be remissed if I did not mention the knowledge and widsom Ms. Robin shared professionally as a doula. During our pregenancy Ms. Robin provided in-person maternal and infant health demonstrations, (which included birthing tutorials, labor preparation, and mental health counseling sessions). Her teaching technique provides a platform to learn. Ms. Robin created a fun and comfortable atmosphere which allowed my wife and I the grace to apply the tools that were taught for our labor and delivery. In our search for a doula, my wife and I were looking for a well-rounded individual, and Ms. Robin provided expertise in serveral categories; health and wellness, financial literarcy, and psychological safety. I would offer my deepest approval and recommendation for Ms. Robin services. Her personality, professionalism, and presence overshadow any doubt, a person may have in the delivery room.

Ashley is amazing! She is the most caring and empathetic human. I’m not sure I could have done it without her. I would 100% have her join me again!

Meredith is the best! She is assertive and knowledgable while also being incredibly kind and gentle. She will take the best care of you, and empower your partner to do the same!

Meredith is so wonderful at what she does! She has been a joy to work with as her care for both mom and baby are very evident. She has taken the time to educate herself on the topic of child birth and really listens and supports mom throughout the time of working together!
