About Me I’m a birth and postpartum doula who believes every family deserves to feel seen, supported, and fully in control of their birthing experience. My approach is grounded in warmth, respect, and deep listening. I honor each parent’s unique vision—whether they want an unmedicated birth, an epidural or a planned cesarean. My goal is to create a space where you feel informed, empowered, and truly cared for during one of the most transformative times of your life. How I Support My Clients I offer 2–3 prenatal visits where we get to know each other, explore your birth preferences, practice comfort measures, and help you feel confident heading into labor. Throughout your birth, I’m there with steady, calm support—physically, emotionally, and informationally—always following your lead and advocating for what matters most to you. After your baby arrives, I provide a postpartum visit to help you settle in, debrief your birth if you’d like, and make sure you feel supported as you navigate early parenthood. My care adapts to your needs; whatever you want your birth and postpartum journey to look like, I’m there to walk beside you.

Chelsea was my doula as a first time mom and made me feel seen and heard. She helped me to figure out what I want in my birth experience and how I can be best supported. I would totally recommend her and choose her again for my next pregnancy and birth.

Hi, I'm Elli, a certified birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator based in Lake Alfred, Florida. As your doula, my goal is to be a calm, steady presence throughout your journey into parenthood. I listen without judgment, provide clear and evidence-based information, and help you understand your options so you can make decisions that feel right for you and your family. Rather than promoting a particular approach to birth, I believe in supporting your choices and helping you feel informed, confident, and empowered every step of the way. Most importantly, I'll remind you to trust yourself, because no one knows your body, your baby, or your values better than you do. When I'm not supporting families, you'll usually find me spending time with my husband and our rescue dog, Cora, at the gym, baking sourdough bread, or dreaming up home improvement projects that my husband may or may not be excited about.

Elisabeth was an incredibly important source of support for me during my pregnancy and in the months that followed. With her empathetic approach, she always had a professional answer to every question, which always put my mind at ease. What I really appreciate about her is that she acts in a very thoughtful manner and is open to different opinions, whilst always striving to find the best solution for the family. During her postnatal visits, she was incredibly loving with my baby. At the same time, she looks after the mother with great dedication. Elisabeth is a blessing for every expectant and new mother!

Hey Parents ~ Labor, Delivery & Postpartum is such a crazy time of your life; it's multiple things happening all at once & you feel like at times you might be spiraling out of control. What should be a time of intense joy can sometimes lead to feeling out of control. As a birth & labor doula, I know that having extra support both emotional & physically can bring peace of mind. Also knowing that your doula comes with a plethora of resources and extra support services is invaluable. Let me discuss with you how a labor & postpartum doula can benefit you so that you can enjoy this season of life with a new little one.

We had an amazing experience with The Doula Fource! I truly can’t say enough good things about our birth doula, Chvana. From the very beginning, she was reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly kind. She made us feel supported and confident throughout the entire process. When my birth plan unexpectedly changed and I had to be induced, Chvana came to the hospital as soon as I called. Her calm presence, encouragement, and unwavering support became the backbone of my labor experience. Thanks to her guidance and reassurance, I was able to achieve my dream of having an unmedicated birth despite the unexpected induction. She advocated for us, helped me stay focused through every stage of labor, and gave both my partner and me the confidence we needed during such an important moment. We are so grateful to Chvana and The Doula Fource for helping make the birth of our babygirl such a positive and empowering experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend The Doula Fource to any expecting family looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doulas.

Amazing Support – A True Blessing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Joanna Guzman. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. She provided not only expert knowledge and guidance but also incredible emotional support throughout my pregnancy, labor journey. During my delivery, Joanna was my rock—calm, reassuring, and always one step ahead, anticipating my needs before I even voiced them. She helped me feel empowered, confident, and safe throughout the entire process. Her warmth, patience, and dedication made all the difference, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her.

Rachel Crawford

Hi, I’m Rachel—the heart behind Renewed Birth Company 🤍 I’m a birth doula, educator, and VBAC mom passionate about helping women feel informed, supported, and confident in their birth journey. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or hoping for a different experience after a cesarean, my goal is to walk alongside you with education, encouragement, and steady support. You deserve to feel heard, prepared, and never alone in your birth.

Rachael provided exceptional support and care throughout my experience, and I will definitely choose her for all future births. As a first-time mother planning an at-home birth, I appreciated her presence during my 42-hour labor, during which she remained by my side the entire time, even while pregnant herself. Rachael took the time to build a meaningful connection with me throughout my pregnancy, including following up with visits to check on us after the birth. As my due date approached, she ensured consistent communication and support. Rachael is one of the most compassionate, attentive, and knowledgeable professionals I have ever known. When my baby needed assistance repositioning herself, she tried every possible method she knew. She also took the time to explain medical information, options, and potential outcomes to me, which was invaluable. I genuinely believe that without Rachael’s presence, I would have become overwhelmed. Her calm demeanor and unwavering support made all the difference, and I am very grateful for her. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a caring and experienced birth professional

I can’t recommend Chvana with Doula Fource enough. From the moment I started working with her, I felt truly supported, informed, and confident especially when it mattered most. If you’re looking for guidance during a healthy, natural delivery (or you just want a calm, steady presence for the journey), a doula like her is such a gift. What stood out most was her unwavering support. She was present in a way that felt both professional and deeply comforting. She never made me feel rushed or judged. Instead, she helped me stay grounded, trusting my body, and focusing on what I needed in each moment. Her knowledge and preparation were incredible. She answered my questions clearly, helped me understand what to expect, and gave me practical guidance without overwhelming me. During labor, she stayed calm and focused, and her encouragement helped me feel safe and empowered, even when things got intense. She was proactive about comfort and options, and she helped me make decisions based on what felt right for me and my baby. Her communication was another huge strength. She checked in regularly, explained things when I needed clarity, and made sure I felt heard. I also really appreciated how she respected my preferences while still offering helpful suggestions. Having her in my corner made a huge difference in how I experienced labor. Overall, our experience was so positive because of her support, compassion, and dedication. She provided more than just “help.” Chvana provided confidence, emotional strength, and guidance that made a real impact on our birth. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants a natural birth experience with steady, loving support throughout.

— Fiorella Diou, review of Chvana Robertson July 2026

If you're looking for someone to support you through pregnancy, birth, and your postpartum journey, I can't recommend Katherine highly enough. Her passion for supporting mothers and babies is truly exceptional. She is constantly expanding her knowledge, staying current with the latest evidence-based practices, and investing in additional training to better serve her clients. Whether it's birth support, lactation, craniosacral fascial therapy (CFT), fascial release, tongue ties, or infant feeding challenges, her depth of knowledge is incredibly reassuring. What sets Katherine apart is the way she empowers rather than pressures. She deeply respects you, your body, and your family's goals. She listens without judgment, provides a wealth of information, and helps you make informed decisions with confidence. You never feel pushed in one direction—you simply feel supported. If you have the opportunity to work with Katherine, you'll quickly understand why so many families trust and recommend her. She is compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely called to this work. Myself and my four children have personally benefited from her care.
