Strength in Serenity is the embodiment and the symbol of the ceremonial rite of passage that occurs during the birthing moment. I started Strength in Serenity in September 2025. As a part of my spiritual journey, I knew I had to be of service to fulfill my purpose and being a Doula resonated with my soul. As a Doula I will be providing emotional, physical, and informational support that will be deeply satisfying and rewarding. As a Doula I feel that not only will I be fulfilling my souls’ purpose, but I will also be able to give back to the community as well. Truly a Blessing!

Hi families! My name is Mijah Robinson, I am a mother of three girls. I birthed in a hospital x2 and one home birth. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist specializing in Prenatal and Postpartum massage. So, I am able to provide healing touch throughout your journey of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I am going through certification with Bebo Mia in Fertility, Birth and Postpartum. My job prior to this was the head Lactation Counselor for Viera, FL WIC (Women, Infant and Children) as I am a Certified Lactation Counselor, certified through global military lactation. Before this is served in the USAF as a mental health technician. All this to say, I am passionate about what I do, I'd love to help you bring your baby into this world. I will give you my upmost best care, as I treat every client like family. Whether you plan to birth at the hospital, birth center or at home, I will help guide you in whatever capacity you need me to!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this doula and the services she provides. She was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. Her attention to detail and the genuine care she has for her clients truly set her apart. She took her time to answer every question, was consistently present, and supported me every step of the way. Her services were exactly as outlined in the contract—no surprises, just honesty and integrity. She is incredibly flexible with timing and rescheduling, which made the entire process feel stress-free. It’s clear that she truly cares about her clients and always follows through on everything she promises. In the birthing room, she was an exceptional advocate for me. Even when things didn’t go as planned, she adjusted quickly and seamlessly without showing any frustration. Her calm presence and ability to adapt made me feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the experience. She also went above and beyond postpartum, following up and even taking time out of her own schedule to create thoughtful, personal trinkets for postpartum care. Those gestures meant so much and showed just how deeply invested she is in her clients’ well-being. Overall, she is an outstanding doula. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who feels like a true safe space—like another sibling, another parent—someone who naturally fits into any environment and supports you wholeheartedly. She is truly exceptional.

Holly Janda

7 years of experience

Holly is Christian, lives in New Smyrna Beach with her family, her husband Todd of 20 years and their precious daughter Emerson, 12 years old. Holly became interested in helping others, first with a career in teaching yoga and expanded into birth support. Certified as a Prenatal Yoga teacher in 2016. A lactation consultant in 2018 and a doula in 2020. Holly strives to support women and families in need of emotional, physical, and spiritual support before during and after delivery.

Holly was an amazing doula and general prenatal/postnatal resource. I moved across the country to NSB 20 weeks pregnant, so Holly was my main source of support in the area. She was so kind and helped me through some early labor scares and difficulties with grace and patience. She knew the hospital system and seemed to have everything I needed during the birth process. It was my second birth and my first experience in another state was extremely stressful so this birth was very redeeming for me. I’ve kept Holly in my life because she is someone you want to keep around. I’m forever grateful she was part of my experience and if we ever have a third she will be the first person we’d call on.

Valentina Guzman

9 years of experience

Hello I’m Valentina! Let me start by saying I have a true passion for maternity. I have been a Birth Doula for over 6 years and have multiple other titles under my belt as well. My goal is to ensure each of my clients have a strong support system and foundation to flourish in their maternal journey. I look forward to working with you all!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support I received from my doula, Valentina, throughout my pregnancy and birth. From the very beginning, Valentina was a source of unwavering encouragement, knowledge, and comfort. During my pregnancy, Valentina provided invaluable guidance on everything from prenatal care to preparing for the baby's arrival. She was always available to answer my questions, no matter how big or small, and she made sure I felt confident and informed every step of the way. Her warmth and empathy made me feel truly cared for, and her expertise gave me the peace of mind I needed. As my due date approached, I had a strong desire to achieve a natural birth. Valentina was instrumental in helping me make this dream a reality. She offered evidence-based advice on natural birth techniques and helped me create a birth plan that aligned with my goals. During labor, Valentina was a calming and reassuring presence, providing both emotional support and practical assistance. She used various comfort measures, such as massages, counter pressures and breathing techniques, to help me manage the intensity of labor. Thanks to Valentina's support, I was able to have the natural birth I had hoped for. Her belief in my ability to birth naturally and her unwavering support made all the difference. I felt empowered and strong throughout the entire process, and I couldn't have done it without her. Valentina is not just a doula; she is a true advocate and has also become a life long friend. Her dedication to her clients is evident in everything she does. I highly recommend Valentina to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive doula. She made and continues to make a profound impact on my pregnancy as I am expecting my second baby. I will be forever grateful for her presence in my life.

Vonda Osborn

6 years of experience

Hello, my name is Vonda Osborn and I am the owner of Baby Bump Birthing Services. I service the Orlando and central Florida area. I have 6 children of my own and truly love helping other moms navigate the journey of pregnancy, labor, postpartum and motherhood. I am a completely judgement free zone. What ever you are hoping for your birth I want to help achieve it. My motto is your baby, your body my support. In my free time I enjoy event organizing and just being with my family.

My husband and I decided to hire a doula a little bit reluctantly, not really knowing what we needed or how beneficial it would be. When I met Vonda, I immediately got this sense that she was caring and compassionate but yet also very competent and confident in her work as a Doula. This gave me so much comfort, and regardless of whether our goal was to deliver at home, a birth center, or hospital, she was willing to support us and our choices and not try to impose opinions on us unless we asked for them (which was huge since opinions can run very strong and extreme on opposite spectrums in the birth world). What I loved most about the idea of hiring her, beyond being able to trust her and know she was for us, was that she would be the consistency in my care from prenatal to delivery to postpartum. This birth was going to be with my second child but I was hoping to have a successful VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) birth, so everything about labor and birth would be a new experience for me. She met with us twice during my 3rd trimester. Those meetings were incredibly informative and brought us so much peace leading up to what was foreign territory to us. She talked with us about our birth plan and let us know what our options were, taught my husband and I physical comfort techniques that could be helpful during labor, and also educated us on the birth process and what would happen to my body and with the baby during the process. Having the ability to contact her anytime after we hired her to get her input and feedback was so helpful. My husband wanted to be as involved and helpful to me as he could but he also didn't know what to expect and I didn't know what I would need, He really appreciated everything Vonda taught us beforehand, but then also having her with us during the birth to help him help me and to be our voice at the hospital since she knew our wishes and could speak for us while my mind was focused on having a baby and my husband was focused on me. Aspects of everything she prepared us for came into play when labor started, and I can't imagine going through labor and birth without having been as prepared as I felt, even when I still didn't know what to expect. Hiring Vonda as our Doula was worth every penny! I would highly recommend her to any mama AND her support person. She was there for me AND my husband, and if we did it again, we'd definitely have Vonda with us!

Miatta Kingg-Carr

4 years of experience

Hi there ! My name is Miatta and I would love to assist in your family’s postpartum journey. I am caring, nurturing and enjoy assisting with newborn care, family adjustment, emotional and physical recovery from birth and so much more. I look forward to hearing about how I can help you and your family.

Miatta was fantastic and very caring oriented to what I needed after I had my daughter Sophia. I am a new single mom who had no one to support or be there for me. I was honored to have Mia by my side during the birth of my daughter. She provided me with meals through the day and evening, even made some to freeze for when I would be doing things on my own. She helped with night feedings, diaper changes, assisted with helping me heal from after birth by providing baths and showers. She helped with getting us to our appointments and taking part in those. She was very encouraging and always had a positive attitude towards me when I would be feeling at my lowest and discouraged when it came trying to get my little one to latch on for nursing. The care and attentiveness she gave Sophia and I was more than I expected and could have asked for from anyone else. I could not have asked for a better person to help in my recovery and postpartum care that first week home from the hospital.

Hello, my name is Amanda, I am a firm believer that birth is not a one size fits all event, and that mothers should have access to the information they need to make their birth experience their own. I believe in the ability for all births to be a positive experience for mom and baby, and as a doula I aim to be the catalyst to aid in that goal.

Payton Kaar

5 years of experience

Hi, I’m Payton I’m a full spectrum doula who supports families through fertility, birth, postpartum, abortion, and loss. My heart work is helping women step into their innate power and knowledge so they can birth confidently and autonomously. In postpartum, I find joy in nurturing and nourishing mama so she can focus on healing and rediscovering herself. My goal is to bring back community care, traditional healing practices, and ancient wisdom.

We were so fortunate to have Payton with us during our triplet girls’ first year of life. She began as our overnight doula when they were newborns and later transitioned into their full-time nanny while we worked. Caring for three babies at once is no small task, yet Payton handled it with consistency, dependability, and so much love. She has a calm, soft-spoken presence that was incredibly comforting in those early months. Her experience with newborns truly stood out as she seemed to know exactly what each baby needed and provided the highest level of care. Beyond caring for the girls, she also kept our kitchen tidy and made sure supplies were always stocked, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders as new parents. What stood out most was the joy Payton clearly took in caring for the girls, and how much they adored her in return. The bond she formed with them was so special, and we always felt complete peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. We are deeply grateful for her support during such an important season of our lives and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Stephanie Dawson

9 years of experience

Stephanie is a board-certified lactation consultant (IBCLC), which is the gold standard for lactation and infant feeding support. She is currently practicing in and around Lakeland, FL through her private practice GROW Lakeland, LLC. She first started working with families in 2017 as a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and postpartum doula, and quickly realized that supporting families was her professional calling. The road to IBCLC is long and challenging, but she aced the board exam in 2022 and launched GROW in 2023. Shortly after passing her board exam, she jumped straight into advanced training programs for oral function & ties, bottle refusal, and Infant Reflexes to better support local families dealing with the most difficult feeding challenges.

Working with Stephanie at GROW was a dream! I had worked with several other lactation consultants in the area without much success. I'm so glad I found Stephanie!!
