Highly Recommend Thalia – An Amazing Birth Doula! I had the absolute privilege of having Thalia as my birth doula, and I cannot recommend her enough! Despite being based in Houston, TX, she traveled all the way to Los Angeles to support me during my birth, and her presence made all the difference. From our very first consultation, I knew I was in good hands. Thalia was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive to my needs, both emotionally and physically. She took the time to understand my birth preferences and offered valuable support and guidance every step of the way. On the big day, she was a calm and reassuring presence, providing me with comfort, strength, and encouragement. Her support allowed me to have a positive and empowered birth experience. I truly believe that having Thalia by my side helped me achieve the birth I had hoped for. If you're looking for a professional, caring, and dedicated doula who goes above and beyond, look no further. I am forever grateful for her support and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive birth doula. Thank you again, Thalia! You made a huge impact on my birth experience, and I’ll always be thankful for you!

My name is Laporcha Foster most people call me LaLa. I am from Houston, Texas and I am a mother to 4 beautiful souls (3 girls and 1 boy). I am a traveling birth/postpartum doula who is also an end of life doula (helping others transition over to the after life). I became a doula after realizing nursing school wasn’t for me. I wanted to be a L&D nurse then a Nurse Practitioner so I could deliver babies. One day I was talking to my spiritual coach who told me my ancestors told her I was a medicine healing lady, and my life purpose was to be a midwife. I never thought to be one even though I heard so many people talked about having midwives and doula when I was pregnant with my son. I decided to do some research and I fell in love with the results and became a certified trained birth/postpartum doula through Madriella Doula Network. Being other women and families support system is my top priority. Rather it’s in a home, birthing center, or hospital I’m there! I am now attending a midwifery program at Midwives College of Utah (MCU) and trusting the process of this new journey. I look forward to meeting with you and vibing off good and positive energy. Peace and blessings!

Having Ms.Foster as my doula was truly life changing and amazing. She became my sister overnight literally; she came in with so much love, kindness and joy for what she's set out to do. Her light coming in helped me TRULY calm down and start enjoying my pregnancy experience. I truly recommend any and everyone to definitely have Ms. Foster for their doula.

Krista is like an angel! As soon as I interviewed her she made me feel so comfortable, and I knew she was to Doula for me throughout my pregnancy. She would check in to see if I had any questions, and to check how I was physically and emotionally. If I did have questions, she was always so great at getting back to me quickly. She also came to a prenatal appointment with me to meet my Midwife, which I thought was really cool. I had contractions for days before actual labor, and she was ready to help as soon as I needed her. I labored at home with her by my side and she was such a comfort. She also helped my husband feel reassured, which helped him feel confident in helping me himself. She also encapsulated my placenta for me. I didn’t know whata doula was with my first pregnancy three years before, and having her made all the difference in labor. I wish everyone could use her as their Doula. The fact that she’s a mom herself who has used many of the techniques she help me use to stay calm, breathe through the pain, and be confident about birth was so comforting. She cares so much about the mom she’s trying to help and you can feel the love she has for her role as a Doula. I would choose her again and again.

Peace! I am Briana Nicol Venters. I am a child of The Most High, a wife to the greatest man I know and a mother to a sweet and spicy baby boy. I have been sharing my labor of Love as a full circle birth worker both locally and internationally since 2018. Prior to Doula work, I spent numerous years providing child care & offering my gift as a certified stretch therapy instructor. When I am not serving birthing people and their families, you can find me reading, cooking, writing, roller skating and spending lots of quality time with my Loved ones. I enjoy nature and have a great appreciation for all things holistic and untampered with. My approach to Doula/birth work is to educate and serve. I am committed to advocating for and assisting birthing people and their villages by ensuring that my clients have the necessary tools to birth with confidence and the ability to advocate and make empowering educated decisions for themselves. It has been most rewarding to be involved in such intimate experiences and holding space for women while they are in some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. I strongly believe that the way we prepare ourselves determines our next steps. I have made it my mission to ensure that every birthing person and their families are fully prepared by being supported every step of the way throughout their prenatal, labor and postpartum journey. I know for a fact that I was created for this work and I look forward to continuing to share myself with the birthing community!
