Hello! My name is Indira Alli, and I am a dedicated postpartum doula based in Tampa, Florida. With over 26 years of experience, I understand that welcoming a new baby is a beautiful and life-changing experience—but it can also bring many new challenges for the entire household. My goal as a postpartum doula is to provide compassionate, practical, and dependable support as families adjust to life with their new baby. I focus on helping parents feel confident, supported, and cared for while assisting with the everyday needs that make the postpartum transition smoother and more comfortable. I believe that when a new mother and family feel supported, everyone has a better opportunity to rest, recover, bond, and enjoy those precious early moments together. When I'm not supporting families, I enjoy spending quality time with my own family and sharing great meals together. I look forward to helping you and your family feel supported, confident, and cared for during this special chapter of your lives.

My day time support with Indira was more then what I expected! She was so caring and sweet towards me and my baby girl. I thought I would not be able to leave my new born to go take a nap. But after watching how she would cradle and talk to her I was confident she was in good hands! Omg her meals were delish! Indira reassured me I was doing a great job even when I had doubts. Definitely will be calling Indira for baby number #2!!!!

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.

I would love to be part of your memorable, sacred major life event.

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.

Recent review

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.

Ms. Jen has been my doula for two babies and my terrific experience with her during the first led me to hire her again as soon as I found out I was pregnant with the second! My husband and I are both physicians with fairly demanding schedules hence we needed someone professional and reliable with a track record of excellence and Ms. Jen was that person. Upon our meet and greet with her, we were immediately put at ease and knew our little one was in great hands. Ms. Jen truly loves babies and knows a lot about them! As a first-time mom, Ms. Jen not only provided night care for my little one but provided me with many helpful tips and tricks to master breastfeeding/pumping, sleep training and overall life hacks. These proved invaluable as my second baby was born at 28 weeks requiring preemie experience, and more individualized care. Once again, Ms. Jen stepped on board with a wealth of experience with premature babies providing my husband and I with a lot of support and reassurance especially as I transitioned back to medicine full-time. We certainly could not have done it without her! Now Ms. Jen regularly babysits my 3 and 1 year old, it has been a joy having her grow with our family. My kids adore her and we have recommended her to several phyician friends who have spoken very highly of their experience with her. She was and has continued to be an incredibly asset to our family!
