Labors are also typically shorter and the baby will less likely to have complications at birth.

Hello love! My name is Heidi, I was raised in Queens, NY & living in Florida since 2008. I love coffee, my camera, books, nature walks with my husband and cuddles with our fur baby Leo.

I bring a grandmother presence to the room, I am here in loving service to you, to be present and guide you because birth can be challenging, but it can also be extremely magical and deeply empowering. I can remember My first encounter with Birth as a photographer and it was that moment I knew how precious and significant birth is, from then on all I have wanted is to be a part of those Magical moments with my camera or/and as a birth doula. Being a doula is being in service to the Mother-and it would be my honor to be chosen and given the opportunity to cross paths during one of the most life changing altering experiences a woman can experience and that is YOU now- how amazing! congratulations! life is a Miracle and it is you ✨! <3 #letsd🌀ulathistogether ♾

Hi, I’m Genesis, a DONA Certified Birth Doula, CD(DONA), serving Miami-Dade and Broward County , and providing support in both English and Spanish. I believe there is no one “right” way to give birth. Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, VBAC, or cesarean birth, you deserve evidence-based information, compassionate support, and a birth team that respects your choices. Over the past year, I’ve supported 20 births across South Florida, including unmedicated and medicated births, inductions, cesarean births, and successful VBACs. Every one of those experiences has reinforced something I deeply believe: good doula support isn’t about achieving a particular type of birth. It’s about helping you feel informed, supported, respected, and confident throughout yours. As your birth doula, I provide continuous labor support, birth education, emotional and physical support, comfort measures, breathing and positioning techniques, partner support, and guidance as you explore your birth options and preferences. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to help you feel prepared to make informed decisions that are right for you and your family. As a Latina mother myself, creating a space where families feel seen, heard, and understood is especially important to me. I also love involving partners and family members, helping them feel confident and prepared to support you throughout labor rather than feeling like they have to figure it all out on their own. My goal is simple: for you to look back on your birth knowing that you were supported, respected, informed, and never alone. I’d be honored to be part of your birth story.
