HELLO AND CONGRATULATIONS! Birth is sacred. You should feel heard, informed, respected, peaceful and empowered. This is my goal for every woman, child, family I work with. I began attending birth for friends and family 27 years ago. I’ve been a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) for two years. I leverage skills gained through experience, self-study, training from DONA International, Spinning Babies etc., plus I’ve acquired NICU-Informed Doula designation and am close to finishing WaterBirth Certification. I strive to continually improve my skills and knowledge. I recently trained in CranioSacral Fascial Therapy (CFT) for adults and infants to support family and friends, but an unexpected benefit is an improved ability to recognize multiple conditions in infants that warrant referral to other specialties/practices. I am THANKFUL I was able to make this investment and grow these skills! I am also beginning to lean into other forms of bodywork; all geared toward helping mothers and babies relax, regulate and rest (which is healing). I offer heart, hands, good understanding and knowledge of a variety of comfort measures which I share with you and. your partner in advance (if desired). Equally important, I strive to provide evidence-based and experiential information as needed to enable timely, appropriate conversations with your OB/Midwife and foster a team approach to the birth experience you desire. Words aren’t enough to describe the joy of birth; It will be an honor to support yours! Please call and we’ll see if it feels like a good fit :).

Hey everyone! My name is Coni and I am a Certified Birth Doula located in Polk County, Florida. I'm married and have 3 crazy kiddos. I was also a surrogate and had Belly Buddy on February 3rd, 2024. I have always been interested in birth. My mom used to teach childbirth classes at the hospital when I was little, and I always loved going with her. I got pregnant at 17 and had to deliver at a birthing center due to financial reasons. I was TERRIFIED to give birth without any medications. Long story short I did it and I felt so empowered! This is when my passion grew even stronger about birth and learning the truths behind it. I ended up having my other 2 kids at the same birthing center because I fell in love with it. I had my first hospital birth with Belly Buddy and that was a new experience that I was able to grow my knowledge in. I would love to be your Doula and help empower you. It’s amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it, are prepared mentally and physically for birth and have the right support system.

I started this journey after difficulties with my own pregnancy, having miscarried in my second child at 20 weeks. I struggled with postpartum depression and breastfeeding and wanted to be by the side of other women so that they may feel kindness and support, secure, and loved if their experiences mirrored hers. I believes every birthing person deserves to be heard and to have someone who can help them advocate for themselves.

As a seasoned doula, birth advocate, and mother of nine children — six boys and a set of triplet girls — I bring a rare blend of clinical knowledge, lived experience, and intuitive understanding to every family I serve. My journey through nine pregnancies, each with its own lessons and challenges, has shaped the way I support mothers today. I know the emotional terrain of pregnancy, the physical demands of labor, and the sacred transformation that happens when a new life enters the world. My work is rooted in the belief that every mother deserves informed, compassionate, and culturally grounded care. Over the years, I have supported families across a wide range of birth experiences, always centering their voices, their choices, and their dignity. My approach blends evidence‑based education with the kind of wisdom that only comes from walking the path myself many times over. A core part of my philosophy is the importance of consistent, proactive prenatal care. I have seen firsthand how early support, education, and monitoring can reduce complications and lower the likelihood of medical inductions — especially those involving Pitocin. While Pitocin is a valuable medical tool when truly necessary, I help families understand how nurturing the body throughout pregnancy can support natural hormonal progression and increase the chances of spontaneous labor. My goal is to empower mothers with knowledge, confidence, and the tools they need to advocate for themselves long before labor begins. Through Royal Empress Doula Services, I serve families with a commitment to excellence, cultural sensitivity, and unwavering support. Whether I am guiding a first‑time mother, supporting a family through a high‑risk pregnancy, or helping a parent heal from a previous birth experience, I show up with the same steady presence that carried me through my own births. My mission is simple: to help families feel seen, supported, and strengthened — from the first prenatal visit to the first moments of life and beyond.
