Hello! My name is Lavinia, and I’m a mother who has personally experienced the profound journey of pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. After facing challenges such as preeclampsia and caring for a premature baby, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and mental needs that arise during this transformative time. These experiences have shaped my passion for supporting other parents as they navigate their unique journeys into parenthood. As a Doula, my philosophy revolves around providing compassionate, individualized care, ensuring that each family feels empowered, informed, and nurtured throughout the process. I believe in the power of holistic support—whether it’s offering emotional encouragement, practical assistance, or simply being a steady presence. My goal is to create a calm, supportive environment where both parents and babies feel safe and cared for, allowing families to thrive during the birthing experience and beyond.

I have been teaching somatics for over 12 years throughout my local Salt Lake City community. I acquired my BFA in Modern Dance and Education from the University of Utah in 2009 and shortly after gained my yoga teacher training in Hatha and Prenatal Yoga. I am a certified DONA Birth and Postpartum Doula, an ICEA accredited childbirth educator, parenting group coordinator, mental health advocate and community organizer. All of the diverse education and training, as well as years of experience, provided me the space to confidently educate the community of expectant parents during their reproductive years, while simultaneously providing unbiased evidence based care. I believe that guiding people to fine tune their own personal intuition and strength allows them to live a happier, well balanced and meaningful life.

Hello, my name is Bizza and I am a birth and postpartum doula located in Salt Lake City, Utah. I am so passionate about birth and empowering birthing people with support and knowledge so they are fully equipped for whatever childbirth brings their way. My background is all things babies, from being a professional nanny to doula work, to being an Auntie to so many children. Knowledge is power and there are so many unknowns in childbirth. It is my joy and desire to equip birthing people with enough knowledge and support that when the unknowns come up, and they will, you are not blindsided. Rather, you are able to make educate, informed decisions. In my free time I enjoy reading, tending to my plants, baking, and gaming with my friends.

Hello! I'm Kaytalyn Winston, Certified Birth, and Postpartum Doula, Certified Lactation Support Educator, Childbirth Educator, and Newborn Sleep Consultant. My passion for birth began through my own motherhood journey. I am the mother of two beautiful children, my daughter was  born at a birth center and my son was born at home. Experiencing the power, beauty, and transformation of physiological birth firsthand deeply shaped my view of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. My experience of being fully held and supported by a doula myself ignited a love and drive for supporting women as they navigate their own journeys into motherhood. In addition to my personal birth experiences, I have also had the unique honor and privilege of serving as a surrogate for a close friend. Walking through pregnancy and birth from both the perspective of a mother and a gestational carrier has given me a profound appreciation for the many different paths families take to welcome a child. I believe that every mother deserves to feel seen, supported, informed, and honored throughout each stage of motherhood. Birth is not simply about bringing a baby into the world, it is a transformational rite of passage for a woman and her family. My role is to provide compassionate guidance, evidence-based education, emotional support, and practical care so that families can make informed decisions and approach birth with confidence. My birth philosophy centers on trusting the innate wisdom of the mother and the physiological design of the body while ensuring families have the knowledge and support needed to navigate birth in the way that feels right for them. I strive to create a space where women feel empowered to use their voice, trust their intuition, release all fears and tension, and make decisions aligned with their values and goals. I support families across a variety of birth settings, including home births, birth centers, and hospitals. I have a special passion for supporting physiological birth, VBACs, water births, breastfeeding, postpartum recovery, and helping families establish healthy newborn feeding and sleep rhythms.

After the birth of my second child, I found myself struggling with postpartum depression. Even though I had a good support system, there were many factors at play that left me feeling depressed, anxious, and like I wasn't a good mom.  Thankfully, I was able to receive appropriate care and I was soon feeling better! I felt so incredibly loved and held as I did the work to recover. Because of the wonderful support I experienced from the birth and postpartum world, I decided to transition from my former career of 16 years as a veterinary technician. I am currently in the process of becoming certified as a postpartum doula through CAPPA and I am so excited to continue supporting the new families in my community!

Greetings! I'm Aleece Weaver, a certified birth doula and trained by DONA (Doulas of North America)residing in Salt Lake City, Utah. I’m prepared to share a wealth of knowledge to enhance your birthing journey. My commitment to empowerment, support, and advocacy for clients is the driving force behind this pursuit. My approach revolves around creating a serene space during this sacred transformation, ensuring that every birth story reflects the identity and values of my clients. I strive to offer not just professional guidance but also a profound sense of connection and understanding during the prenatal and postpartum period.

Having trained as a Doula and Prenatal Yoga Instructor in Washington, D.C., I gained valuable experience supporting mothers in fast-paced medical settings where advocacy and informed decisions are essential. Now based in Utah, I use these skills to create calm and positive birth environments where mothers feel heard, supported, and empowered to create the birth experience of their dreams.

I believe everyone deserves and needs physical and emotional support during birth and I’d be honored to be a tool in helping you achieve the labor you deserve.

I love helping birthing people and their partners discover the magic of Birth Days. I love helping them realize that they have a voice in how the story of this day will go. Women are strong and when we educate them we empower them. I became a doula in 2019 and feel tremendous gratitude for each couple who has let me join them on their treasured day. I have 5 babies of my own, and was a gestational carrier for my last pregnancy. Each baby was born in their own unique way. I do not believe there is one right way to birth, rather there is one right way to treat the mother— with respect.

Hello! My name is Haley, and I am a certified full-spectrum birthworker. I am passionate about supporting all birthing bodies and holding space for life’s big moments. I love being a steady presence and firm advocate for people throughout their pregnancy, labor, and postpartum experiences. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I also focus on providing inclusive care for people of all sexes, gender identities, relationship models, races, and beliefs.   I have always had an interest in the birth world, but for the first 20 years of my life, I was dedicated to pursuing my love for dance. I moved to Salt Lake City from Akron, Ohio in 2018 to get my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Ballet from the University of Utah. While I was studying for my degree, I started reading everything I could find about becoming a birthworker. My interest turned into an obsession and after dancing professionally for a year post-grad, I felt ready to take a break from dance and pursue birth work full time!    As your birth support, I lean on my intuition and learned skills to guide me. Entering your space with a regulated nervous system allows me to tap into that intuition and support you to the best of my abilities. I believe that birth is one of the most transformative life experiences and I love helping people prepare for it!   As your postpartum support, I meet you where you are and embrace the unknown with you. The postpartum journey looks different for everyone, and each day comes with new challenges and joys. I feel honored every time I am able to support a new family and watch them thrive during this vulnerable, beautiful time.    When I’m not geeking out about placentas and newborn reflexes, you can find me camping in the Uintas, doing yoga in my living room, hiking, snowboarding, dancing, singing bad karaoke at local dive bars, and spending time with my partner and our two cats.

Hi parents! I am a registered nurse with more than 11 years of NICU and Maternity/Postpartum experience. I recently transitioned to postpartum doula work to help families feel supported and confident well beyond their hospital stay! I truly enjoy helping families discover what works best for them and love to help the newborn stage feel a little less overwhelming! I provide a calm, reassuring presence and love creating a peaceful environment where parents can get some rest and know their baby is in caring hands! I provide overnight newborn care.

Hi, I’m Sarah, Full Spectrum Doula and owner of Birthing Brave! I love taking a physiology first approach to interventions, meaning that regardless of what medical support you need (or want) during your birth we are setting up your body for success by optimizing it's natural processes. (This is great for natural minded mamas who want an epidural or need a medical induction). To do that we start prenatally. I offer a full online birth course with a physiology first perspective in hospital settings, and we do the work together to adjust mindsets, clear fears, improve our health and baby's positioning, and prepare for the unknowns (including NICU and C-Section). During your birth, I love supporting physiology regardless of what interventions come our way. This can look anything from helping you into positions with a peanut ball to open the levels of your pelvis while you rest with your epidural, to supporting the natural flow of oxytocin during a labor induction. I want you to feel supported, respected, and confident that you made the best decisions for you and your baby.

Hi! I’m Jamie, the face behind Salt Lake Doula.
