My name is Lyssa Zawalski, and I am a postpartum doula undergoing certification with DONA. My path towards becoming a postpartum doula was a winding one, with stops along the way as a teacher, social worker, and product manager. While I have found a depth to each of these titles, becoming a postpartum doula has felt like so much more. Quickly after giving birth to my daughter, I realized that I was underprepared and undereducated on what came next. Postpartum was filled with navigating solo parenting, PMADs (perinatal mood and anxiety disorders), and lack of a “village.” Once enough time had passed and I could more objectively look back at my postpartum period, the most glaring observation was that I had desperately needed help. I needed support in understanding how to feed my baby, what infant sleep looked like, how to find ways to take care of myself (which felt impossible at times). Having a postpartum doula would have changed my postpartum experience as well as the early years of parenthood. I cannot imagine a more tender time to support a family. I truly believe the care and support that we receive in our postpartum period determines so much of how we start our parenting journeys. Thank you for being here, and thank you for trusting me with the most precious pieces of your heart.

Lyssa has been an ongoing guide to motherhood, since she had her daughter. Her unfiltered honesty in motherhood was very real, deep and a refreshing view compared to posed family photos. When I had my second baby, I thought it was going to be different, since I knew what to do this time around. In a sense, it was. However, when the lack of sleep crept in, I called upon Lyssa. She knew the anxiety, the deep seated feelings I felt, and had already lived the intrusive thoughts I had. She was present for the hardest parts, and I can NOT thank her enough for seeing me and understanding motherhood, by walking with me on this journey.

Greetings! I am a Full Spectrum Doula Specializing in birth and also serve as a placenta specialist. My goal as a doula is to empower you to have the most positive birth outcome as you see it and connect you to resources to allow your transition to motherhood go as smoothly as possible. I do identify as a holistic doula and believe in the power of the human body which is how my care model is structured. If this sounds in alignment with your pregnancy journey I’d love to connect!

Imaan is such a great and pure spirit. She's an easy person to get along with because she genuinely cares about you and the health of your baby. She's very knowledgeable and is always available for questions. I also appreciate that she included my husband in various activities to help him feel more engaged. I wish I had contacted her sooner in my pregnancy to maximize the help I received, but Imaan's support was timely and very much needed. I highly recommend her for your doula needs!

My name is Courtney Moore Rodriguez. I am a certified lactation educator (CLE), certified postpartum doula (CPD), and certified infant and family sleep specialist (IFSS). I am here to support your family in person (within the Denver metro area) and/or virtually…from the time you find out you’re expecting, through your baby’s first birthday. In those first few weeks and months, it can be hard to ask for help. I am a strong believer in helping families to help themselves (with a good amount of time for rest and self care thrown in too). Rather than taking care of your baby for you, I make sure that you have the skills, knowledge, and rest to do it on your own. I assist families in a non-judgmental fashion and always strive to meet you where you are. I am up to date on the latest research regarding infant feeding, sleep, and newborn care, and can give you non-biased information so that you can make informed choices that work for your family.

Courtney is so wonderful!! We worked with her as a postpartum doula as first time parents. Before baby came, thought we’d work with her for a few weeks…..nine months later I still rely on Courtney as an extremely trusted resource and for support when we need it. She shaped our parenting experience in those first few weeks and months so much for the better that I have so much gratitude for her patience, knowledge, emotional support and calming presence. Courtney provided amazing, loving care to our baby and taught my husband and I really everything at the beginning as we had no experience with babies! It was such peace of mind knowing I could ask Courtney anything and not rely on the rabbit hole of google or social media. She helped us through so many challenges during such an emotional time and helped with all kinds of things to make our lives easier. Months later we still turned to Courtney for help on baby sleep, eating and also for my breastfeeding journey. I would never have even started my breastfeeding journey, never mind made it to ten months, without her. I am beyond grateful we found Courtney to work with and recommend anyone to work with her!

I am Cassandra, a Doula and Birth Photographer. I am a mom of 4, wife to a military veteran and a native to Aurora Colorado. Growing up, I have only lived in one home until the year I met my husband. I began this doula journey after the birth of my son. Finding a birthing center that provided a doula was the most amazing experience I could have asked for. After that experience, I knew I wanted to be that strength and support for all other birthing people and military personnel. I am excited to be your support, knowledge, and strength with you and be able to photograph your journey. On my down time you can find me shopping at Costco, at the park with my family or crafting in my office.

Sarah is fantastic and we couldn't recommend her more. We had her support from the first night we got home from the hospital until about 8 weeks and we are so grateful we had it. She is so knowledgeable about all things newborn and made us feel so comfortable and much more confident as first time parents. Sarah is incredibly professional and we look forward to using her postpartum doula services again for our next child!

When we work together it will be a team approach. I may be the expert on sleep, but you are the expert on your child. We will work to create a plan that works for your child's personality and age as well as your parenting preferences. I am a parent, just like you. I understand the love you have for your child and I want you to feel comfortable with the process that we establish.
