Hi, I’m Stacy Soria, a certified birth doula and the heart behind My Safe Place Birth Coach. I’m a mama of four boys each with their own unique birth story and I’ve walked the journey of both breastfeeding and exclusive pumping. Those personal experiences, along with my deep passion for birthwork, led me to support other women in one of the most powerful moments of their lives. As a doula, my mission is to help you feel safe, seen, and supported—whether you’re planning a hospital birth, a VBAC, a water birth, or something in between. I believe birth is not just about bringing a baby into the world, but about bringing you into your power as a mother. I serve families with love, advocacy, and grounded education, and I walk beside you through it all your fears, your choices, your voice. Your birth story matters. Your body knows what to do. And I’m here to help you trust that every step of the way. 💛 Let’s build the birth experience you deserve. @mysafeplacebirthcoach | www.mysafeplacebirthcoach.com/website
