My name is Rachael Fischer and I have been a certified birth doula since 2022! My husband and I have been married since 2012 and have lived in Waco, TX since 2010. We had our son in 2014 and it was then that I was able to experience the wonderful involvement of having a Doula by my side, supporting and advocating everything I wanted for my birth. After having our son, I soon realized my love and passion for pregnancy, birth, new mothers, and babies. Supporting women during their birth is what I was meant to do! I would be blessed to be with you, by your side in helping to educate, support and nurture you in your birthing journey.

Hi, I am located in the Waco area. I have two children of my own and a third on the way. For 12 years, I have helped ladies with Postpartum Doula, nursing, and birth doula. I recently took a birth Doula/postpartum Doula/lactation consultant class to be officially certified and further my education in these areas. My passion is to help ladies have the best birth, postpartum, and nursing experiences.

Shoshannah is so kind and patient. We had her at our birth, and she was such an outstanding support. She’s always there to know exactly what the need is, is never too pushy, is extremely sensitive, and is there to help precisely as she can. She also was such a great help in educating me about nursing through her own experience and her studying. We highly recommend her!

ve Clients, I am writing to express my deep appreciation for the remarkable care and support I received from Cheyenne and Cree during my pregnancy and postpartum journey. As a first-time mom, I was fortunate to have Cheyenne as my homebirth and postpartum doula, and to also benefit from her placenta encapsulation services. Her expertise and holistic approach put me at ease throughout the entire process, and her commitment to educating me was invaluable. Cheyenne provided exceptional prenatal care, offering guidance and addressing my concerns with utmost patience. During labor and delivery, she ensured that I felt supported, while Cree provided emotional support for both my partner and me, capturing breathtaking photos that we will cherish forever. What stood out most was their dedication to making me feel comfortable, their willingness to address all my questions, and their unwavering support in overcoming my childbirth fears. The family-oriented care I received from Cheyenne and Cree made the experience even more special. I have referred my friends and family to their services, and I genuinely believe that booking them as your doulas is the right choice.

I am a Full Spectrum Birth and Postpartum Doula in Austin, TX trained through Doula Trainings International. I work with families throughout the birth process to create supportive care and systems so you feel empowered and educated throughout the entire birth process, as well as supported and cared for during the postpartum period. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQIA+ families and those who are in different stages of the birth process, including miscarriage and loss. Previously, I entered a software engineering career through working to design technologies for individuals with traumatic brain injuries in hospital settings, but after hearing about several friends and family members' birth and doula experiences, I decided I wanted a more caretaking and embodied role in creating equitable change and creating peaceful, embodied, and inclusive experiences for families. In my free time, I love to make art, chat over a latte, go for a lake swim, and see live music with friends.

After becoming certified with DONA as a labor doula I joined my education, experience, and creativity with becoming a lifestyle photographer and have since been serving the greater Austin area. My goal is to empower new and expecting families with fact-based information, and unyielding support. Simultaneously, I enjoy capturing the moments that define your life-- whether that is working together prenatally, documenting your family’s connection, or joining you in your intimate birth experience. If it’s part of your life, I’m IN! There’s nothing I love more than connecting with others. I’m a firm believer in treating others the way you want to be treated, so I view every client like they are a treasured friend. If this sounds like what you’re looking for, let’s grab coffee and get to know one another. I can’t wait to give you a big ole’ hug and welcome you to the Carley E. fam.

Amelia is a DONA trained birth doula (2019) from Minnesota. She holds a BA in Global Studies with emphasis on South American studies and Global Public Health. Birthwork found her when she was working on a research project about women giving birth in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Following her project, she immediately got trained as a birth doula and hit the ground running. She was a volunteer doula for the first part of her doula career while simultaneously working as a health educator in non-profit clinics in both Minneapolis and Austin. Amelia eventually adhered to her calling and shifted to working in birthwork full time. For Amelia, birth is a sacred and ceremonial part of life. She is passionate about advocating for families and following their lead as they go through this transformational experience. Amelia enjoys incorporating essential oils, movement, meditation, mantra, and light touches of humor into her work. Outside of birthwork you might find Amelia teaching yoga, travelling, hanging with her cats, or hiking with her partner.

I became a birth doula because I am in awe of the strength and wisdom of women. It is an honor to help you tune into the wisdom of your body, and to support your family as they learn how to support you. I help you find your breath when things get big. I remind your partner how to hold you. I help create a quiet, womb-like space—dim lights, soft sounds, warm water, and anything else that helps you feel safe, grounded, and undisturbed. I attend home births, birth centers, and hospital births. Wherever you feel safe is the right place to have your baby. My job is to help regulate the space, so that you can surrender. I offer peace of mind, solid education, and steady presence so you can meet this experience with courage. My care is personalized and client-led. I follow your rhythm. My approach is grounded in the belief that women already have everything they need within them to safely and instinctively bring their babies into the world. Whether this is your first baby or your sixth, your birth matters. Each one is a new journey, a new chance to grow and expand and meet yourself in a whole new way.

Hannah is a fantastic doula! She has so much information to share in the prenatal appointments that made me feel that much more prepared. She was present during my long labor - day and night - and offered so much support to me and my husband during the process. And her helping hand during my postpartum period was much appreciated as well. I'm so glad she was a part of my birth experience and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, caring, and dutiful doula.
