Hi, I’m Catherine! 🤍 I’m a mom to four boys, a birth doula, and a birth photographer. My passion for birth really began after my first homebirth. It was the first time I truly felt empowered, informed, and connected to my own strength throughout the birth process—and it completely changed the way I saw birth. I owe it all to choosing the right birth team! That experience sparked a desire in me to help other women experience that same sense of confidence and empowerment, no matter where or how they choose to birth. I believe our bodies were created with an incredible ability to give birth, but I also believe we were never meant to do it alone. I’m here to hold your hand, remind you of how strong you are, help you navigate the unknown, and celebrate with you when you finally get to meet your baby. The way I serve my clients is best described as being your “birth bestie” or “birth sister.” I want to truly know you—your hopes, your dreams, your fears, your past experiences, and what makes you feel safe and supported—because the better I know you, the better I can support you. Throughout pregnancy, I offer a listening ear, a calm presence, encouragement, and a safe space to talk through all the “tmi” things on your mind. And when birth arrives, I’ll be right there beside you, offering steady hands, reassurance, comfort, and support for both you and your partner. As a birth photographer, I also have the privilege of preserving the beautiful, raw, emotional moments that can feel like a blur afterward—the hands holding yours, your partner’s face, the anticipation, the tears, and those first moments with your baby. Your birth is a story worth remembering. I would be so honored to walk alongside you and be part of such a sacred chapter in your story. So… if this sounds like the kind of support you’ve been looking for, let’s grab coffee and chat about all the birth-y things! ☕️

Catherine was a fantastic doula and such a wonderful source of support throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. She was always calm, caring, and easy to talk to, and from the very beginning, I felt like I could talk to her like a friend. When I had fears and concerns about labor, she was always responsive, kind, and supportive, helping me to feel heard and reassured. I had underestimated how much support I would need postpartum and how challenging recovery and breastfeeding would be. Catherine brought over meals and snacks and spent time with me as I processed my birth experience. Her kindness and presence made such a difference during a difficult and vulnerable time, and I’m so grateful for her support. I would highly recommend Catherine to anyone looking for a doula!

From the moment we started working with Sophia at Devout Doula Services, it was clear that we had made the right decision. She not only provided us with emotional and physical support but also with an incredible depth of knowledge and resources that empowered us throughout our birth. She was there for us every step of the way, from early pregnancy to postpartum, offering guidance on everything from nutrition to birth plans. Sophia respected and listened to our wishes, ensuring that we felt heard, seen, and genuinely cared for. The personalized tips and continuous availability via text and calls helped alleviate our anxieties. The prenatal visits were not only informative but also incredibly reassuring. During labor, She advocated for us with the medical staff, ensuring that all actions were in our best interest. Her support was not just professional but deeply personal. We recommend Sophia without reservation to anyone looking for a doula who will respect, empower, and support you throughout your birthing process.

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.

Nia Kimbrough Popular: among the most-viewed doulas in Florida, last 60 days

Hello my name is Nia, I was introduced to the wonderful world of birth work during my sister’s pregnancy. As I was helping the practitioner, she hinted at the fact that she was a Doula. Adding, that I would do well in that field due to my caring nature. After more research, I began seeing the need for this service and fell in love with this industry. In 2019, I became a Dona trained Birth Doula, obtained certifications in: Newborn Care Specialist (NCS), Postpartum Doula(PPD), Basic Life Support(BLS), Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP), CPR, First Aid and trained in Benkung Belly Binding. I’ve had the pleasure of supporting parents with their newborns days and nights, provided care for families across states, families with multiples, parents with disabilities and supported births in both hospitals and birth centers. I’ve learned to be more understanding, open to new ideas and sensitive in different situations. It’s everything I thought it would be and more. I still find the time to be a supportive wife to my husband, homeschool my son, sing , brush up on my Spanish even play Pickle ball. I hope to support as many families as I can while enjoying this adventure, looking forward to being apart of your families’ journey!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Nia as our night nurse coordinator. From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly supportive during such an important transition for our family. She matched us with Susie and Tona, who were both absolutely wonderful, and together they helped us establish a healthy sleeping routine for our son, Miles. Nia consistently checked in, made the process feel seamless, and truly cared about making sure we felt comfortable and supported. Thanks to her coordination and guidance, we now feel confident and settled into a great routine at home. We are so grateful for the care, communication, and overall experience. I would highly recommend Nia to any family looking for compassionate, reliable overnight newborn support.

There are no enough words to describe how thankful that. I had found Zory and was able to have her as my Doula. When I met her, I knew immediately that she was the one and that I would be extremely comfortable with her. She takes her time to meet with you, to ensure you are heard and she does her best to make sure it happens. She pays attention to detail before and during your birth. My birth did not go exactly how I planned, it went along fast and I was supper freaked out, but as soon as she arrived, I felt an extreme sense of safety and comfort. If I were to have more children, I would want Zory by my side again. During labor and during all that pain there is one thing that stands out to me and it was all her telling me that I was doing this and I was doing amazing, etc, everything else was blurred out. You would not regret having her as your Doula and you would want her to be in your life as your friend, because that's how much she cares. Thank you Zory! I am eternally grateful for you

Hey New Friend I’m Justine, your new friend, your cheerleader, your support, and your added strength from your Baby Bump, Beyond Birth journey. You’ll find me filling many roles as a wife, mother of 3, early childhood enthusiast, and dedicated doula that loves photographing cherished moments throughout Central Florida. Some say a doula is a luxury, however for many it’s a necessity! I became a doula because I realized how many women/birthing persons are without support or a village to help them through what could be the most beautiful yet scariest time of their life. At Baby Bumps, Beyond Birth, we believe that every individual deserves a birth experience that honors their autonomy, dignity, and unique story. We are dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care that nurtures the whole person - body, mind, and spirit. Through education, compassion, and individualized support, my mission is to support and uplift birthing individuals and their families, fostering a safe, informed, and empowered experience from pregnancy to parenthood.

Justine's ability to listen and provide support is unmatched. She also understands that each birth and experience is different, which allows her to adjust to meet the special needs of each mom. I would recommend Justine as a Doula to any mom who needs support and advocacy on their journey to motherhood. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future to handle my birth needs.
