I have lived in Florida all my life. My happy place is by the ocean listening to the waves. I am married to my college sweetheart and we have 3 beautiful, wild boys. I became fascinated by the magic and mechanics of birth during my first pregnancy in 2013. I had an emergency c-section followed by medicated and unmedicated vaginal births in 2016 and 2019. For all three, I had the same doula by my side sharing her 30+ years of wisdom. In 2023, I formalized my training and certifications and have been focusing on doula work full-time. Aside from parenting my sons, it is my biggest privilege and joy to serve mothers in this vulnerable time, and I look forward to knowing and serving you during your journey. I strongly believe it is the right of the birthing person to choose whatever path is right for them. Every body, baby and pregnancy is different. If you choose me to be by your side, my promise is to help you and your partner bring that vision to life. Knowing birth can be unpredictable, I will do everything I can to ensure you feel safe, loved, empowered and strong every step of the way. I would love to talk with you about your wishes for your birth. Get in touch with me today to set up a free consultation.

I cannot recommend Amanda enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly nurturing, comforting, and supportive. She made me feel heard, reassured, and cared for throughout the entire experience. Her calm presence brought so much comfort during every stage of the process. She always knew just what to say or do to help me feel at ease, and her encouragement gave me confidence when I needed it most. Knowing she was by my side made the entire experience feel less overwhelming and so much more positive. If you're looking for a doula who genuinely cares about her clients, provides unwavering support, and will be your biggest advocate, I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda. I am so grateful to have had her by my side and couldn't imagine my birth experience without her.

I am a very picky person and am stubborn when it comes to what I want. And I knew from the moment I fell pregnant that I not only wanted a doula, but needed one. I spoke to several doula's who I liked, but when I spoke to Bianca...I loved her! From the first moment we spoke we clicked and she made me feel safe in a way no one else had so far. She was there for me day one, and has continued to support me and my bun in the oven since taking my family on! She's caring, kind, compassionate and has a desire to help any and all, and most importantly to me, she hears me, and sees me. I have had so many traumatic experiences with doctors who have bulldozed over me, and acted as though they knew best, and I was terrified that my first birthing experience would be much of the same. But Bianca has given me the peace of mind and the courage to pursue a hospital birth, and I'm confident she will be there to guide me, help me, and advocate for me. I would never dream of using anyone else but her, and I look forward to using her again in the coming years. In her I have found an advocate, a friend, and a companion, and I'm no longer anxious. Thank you, Bianca! From my growing family, to your amazing family! Thank you!

Let me start by saying, I had no idea I even needed a doula until I met Katharine! I truly cannot define her job for you. I just don't have the words. What I do know is, Katharine listened to what I needed, took care of me and saw me through until the very end. Pregnancy and labor are both passage ways to becoming something beyond your current self. For this life transition, you're going to want Katharine! Katharine's overall presence and guidance throughout my entire pregnancy was infinitely the best thing for me, my fiancé and my baby girl! I wish she was still in LA because i’d get pregnant right now to have her with me. We love you, mama. You are everything and more!
