Hi! Im Chrystal. Thank you for being here! I’m a DONA-certified birth doula dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care to families throughout pregnancy and labor. Based in Littleton, I share my home with my husband and our beloved Springer Spaniel, Fisher. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Administration from Regis University and previously worked as a nurse aide and a midwife’s assistant, experiences that shaped my deep respect for both clinical care and the natural wisdom of birth. I began working as a doula in 2022, earned my certification in 2023, and have since had the honor of supporting more than 60 families. I have attended births of all varieties including home births, VBACs, cesarean, unmedicated, assisted, and more. Outside of birth work, I love spending time outdoors; identifying plants, hiking, camping, or simply walking with Fisher. I love the warmth from the sun and the sound of birds, they give me life! You’ll often find me enjoying a cup of tea with a good book, exploring creative outlets, or spending an afternoon wandering through Barnes & Noble or World Market. My guilty pleasure is rewatching media I’ve already seen and love, or rereading old books that I can’t forget. I like to think of my role as a consultant, advocate, and fairy godmother all in one. I support you in achieving your dream birth by offering continuous physical and emotional care, helping you maintain informed consent, and empowering your instincts while holding space for this incredible experience. I also work closely with your partner, giving them the confidence and tools to provide meaningful emotional and physical comfort. I value organization, timely communication, and nonjudgmental care. My goal for my clients is a labor that feels peaceful, informed, and joyful. In the labor room, my focus is always on my client’s comfort and their overall goals for birth. I prioritize finding the balance between letting labor unfold naturally and offering suggestions when they can truly make a positive difference. I often joke that just because I know Spinning Babies doesn’t mean I’m going to “flip you like a pancake”—those tools are there when they’re needed, not as a default. To me, your intuition is VIP, and medicine is a powerful tool we can use when it supports your safety and your vision. Past clients have mentioned my calm, reassuring presence and my soothing voice helping to ground them in intense moments. My top two favorite parts of attending births are feeling like I have helped, and the look on your face when you realize; “I DID IT!” Thanks again for being here and congratulations!!

Hello everyone, my name is Jenn. I'm a certified birth and postpartum doula serving the Denver metro area. I have always been drawn to birth work and I've chosen to practice as a doula because I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and prepared throughout their birthing journey, regardless of what life path you're on. I'm committed to empowering you to advocate for yourself and your baby, encourage you to attain the birthing experience you want and be there every step of the way to empathize and validate your emotional journey.

Recent review

Discovering I was pregnant at the young age of 19 in January of 2023 was a daunting realization, as it wasn't part of my immediate plans. Uncertainty clouded my thoughts, but I knew I needed guidance regardless of the decision my partner and I made. That's when Jenn stepped in. From the onset of my pregnancy journey, Jenn provided unwavering support, extending beyond childbirth. She offered exceptional advice on nutrition, prepared me for the birthing process, and most importantly, empathized with my emotional journey, understanding my desires for both myself and my child. During labor, Jenn remained a constant presence, offering guidance through every step. From walking the hospital corridors to assisting with pain relief methods and ensuring optimal posture through breathing techniques. Her swift response to my hospital admission due to preeclampsia exemplified her dedication. After 11 hours of labor and 14 minutes of pushing, my beautiful daughter entered the world, and any apprehensions about being a young, first-time mother faded in that moment of pure connection. Jenn's reassuring words were a beacon of strength throughout, reminding me of my capabilities even in moments of doubt. Reflecting on my birthing experience, I am filled with gratitude for Jenn's support. I wholeheartedly endorse her as an exceptional doula, and I am grateful for the opportunity to relive that transformative journey in my mind because of her.

Having Carson as my doula had a massively positive effect on my pregnancy and delivery experiences. She provided me with educational resources and was always available to answer my questions and to calm my fears. I started my pregnancy not having the confidence to give birth unmedicated, but she continually supported me and helped me realize that I could do it. She was instrumental in helping me have a positive labor and delivery experience. I felt more in control with her there, since I knew she would make sure my wishes were being followed even when I couldn’t speak for myself. She also checked in with me after I gave birth to see if I had any questions or needed any help navigating life as a new mom. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is pregnant. Carson is a truly gifted doula.

I am so happy we found Dacia! As a first time mama, I really wanted to work with a doula that would help me confidently navigate labor, delivery, and the different scenarios (and decision points) we might encounter while delivering at the hospital. Dacia was such a positive part of our journey - from the minute we first met, I felt comfortable and supported by her. She was communicative and shared information and resources leading up to our birth, and made sure to address any questions and concerns my partner and I had. Dacia was calm and reassuring while we were laboring, providing physical and emotional support to me and my partner and helped me think through decisions as our birth progressed. Her calm demeanor and positive, compassionate attitude was such an important part of our big day. I'd recommend working with Dacia to anyone considering a doula!

Hi All! I am Cheryl Small, a Birth & Postpartum Doula and Childbirth Educator serving families in northern Colorado. Three decades ago I had my first baby via cesarean and my next three babies were born naturally at home attended by midwives, which was a decision that changed the course of my life. I am passionate about all things natural health and believe the body has the ability to perform beyond what our minds can comprehend. This includes physiological birth. The body knows what to do. Does that mean every birth goes accordingly? Not always. But I have found the biggest obstacle is not the body, but the mind, so when prepared with education, tools, support and informed decision making, the chances of obtaining your desired birth are greater. I have supported over 60 births in the last 2.5 years at home, in birthing centers and hospitals and would love to walk alongside you through pregnancy, labor, delivery and ALL things postpartum. It's vital to not forget the fourth trimester which is when baby comes home and families may need the most support. In my free time, I am often seeking out a new hiking trail in the mountains.

Hi, I'm Koko! I serve Longmont and northern Colorado as a birth and postpartum doula. I offer placenta encapsulation and lactation counseling. I see in birth such a beautiful demonstration of love.

I am blessed with the beautiful opportunity to help others welcome the precious gift of new life into this world. My life is guided by Catholic faith, marriage, and my life’s vocation of motherhood. I am DONA trained and certified through the Catholic Doula Program as both a birth and postpartum doula.

Stephanie brings it! She makes the entire pregnancy, birth & postpartum experience so special and sacred. She is a master ceremonialist and always, I mean always, has flowers and magical honey. You will be so doted upon: from your first visit together; to your mother blessing ceremony; all the birth waves; to mother roasting, belly wraps, and yummy nourishing broths; to an intuitive placental reading; to expert breastfeeding support; to the final bittersweet closing ceremony. She will make your birth space cavelike and sparkly with fairy lights, candles, affirmations, a wonderful fan, and flowers. She will guide you through the waves and challenges, keeping you grounded and cracking jokes for levity. She's also a mama so she deeply understands what her clients are going through. All I can say is Dou-la-la!

Marie is a DONA trained Postpartum doula with over a decade of newborn and infant care experience. Through her experience as a nanny, she fell in love with helping families through the journey of parenthood. She witnessed firsthand how chaotic life can be through pregnancy and after birth. She became a doula to help families navigate the stresses of new parenthood and enjoy their lives together with their new baby. Marie aims to guide families through the entire journey into parenthood with a gentle, holistic approach. She specializes in hands-on education, physical and emotional support, feeding assistance, sleep training, cooking, and household organization. Her goal is to nurture parents in this vulnerable and intimate time, and empower them to care for their new child with confidence. A full fridge, clean home, and person to talk to can make all the difference! She also provides antepartum support to assist with birth planning, getting ready for baby, and any additional needs in the final trimester of pregnancy. Beyond educational, physical and organizational support, there is a strong focus on emotional and mental health when working with Marie. She has a trauma-informed and inclusive approach; becoming a parent is a huge shift in identity and deserves to be treated with immense care and respect. Her education and experience allows her to assist with single parents, parents of advanced age, families who have experienced chronic illness, loss, eating disorders, anxiety, and sexual abuse. Marie also identifies as part of the LGBTQ+ community. When not working with families, Marie spends time with her baby boy and husband playing with their two rescue dogs. She loves to cook healthy plant based meals and listen to audio books! She is also the co-founder of Newborn Nanny Consultants LLC which helps match families with qualified nannies.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Marie. She was a lifesaver for our family during the early postpartum days with my daughter. The nights Marie would come and help were what my husband and I most looked forward to during the week because we knew we'd have trusted support and that we would get much needed sleep. She was very flexible with her schedule and was always able to work with us to find the best timing for her to come help with overnights. Marie was a loving and confident doula and I always knew my daughter was in good hands with her. Marie was always open to having conversations with me and workshopping ways to improve naps, nighttime sleep, bottle feeding, pumping, etc. with me and I don't know that I would have been able to do things as well without her. In my struggle with postpartum anxiety and depression, nights were tough for me because I often felt a debilitating loneliness when I was feeding my daughter or up pumping. I cherish the nights we had with Marie because she helped take that loneliness away and it made me more confident as a mother. She is the absolute best and I highly recommend her!

Hi there, my name is DiAndra Espinoza and I am a Postpartum Doula in Lafayette, CO and surrounding areas. As a newborn/infant/toddler nanny for four years, I realized that my passion is not only in helping new humans grow but also in providing support for new parents. My practice emphasizes empowerment, confidence and quality care for the postpartum months. I strive to not only ensure that baby is on track but that moms (and dads) alike are able to recover and get started on their new normal. It's important to me that the joy of birth transfers to the joy of parenthood.

Recent review

DiAndra took care of our baby from when she was 7 months old to when she turned 1 and started daycare. She was the best nanny we could have ever hoped for: always punctual, highly experienced, and super sweet with babies. DiAndra thoughtfully designed each day: sometimes she took our baby on neighborhood walks, sometimes she played with her outside, sometimes they do tummy time at home and she sang / danced with her as well. Our baby is usually shy around strangers, but she has enjoyed playing with DiAndra since Day 1! Highly, highly recommend!

Hi, my name is Chelsea Geraghty and I am a CAPPA Certified Postpartum Doula in Boulder, CO. I became inspired to become a Doula after having two children of my own and struggling through those difficult first 3 months, needing support I just did not know existed. Through the struggle there is also so much joy, and I hope to be the support person that eases you into the transition to parenthood. I offer a helping hand, education, a listening ear and helpful instruction without judgement. I also teach yoga a few times a week and would be happy to incorporate that into your care as appropriate in your healing journey. In my spare time I like to hike with my dogs, swim and play board games with my two kiddos and go camping with my family.

Hi, my name is Carolina, and I’ve been a doula for almost 3 years. I love supporting moms, couples, and families who need to be educated about the birth world in the USA. I have 2 Children, one is 20, and the other one is almost 16. My greatest gift has been a mom for them. I love to connect birthing families with resources, educate them and get them ready to have a calm and beautiful experience in the birth of their children. As a mom, I went through a lot myself, felt so lonely in the process and I don’t want anyone to feel the same I felt. We speak Spanish and English, and hope to hire more doulas who speak other languages soon.

I’m a DONA-certified birth doula with over 30 years of experience in family advocacy and early childhood development. God led me to this work through the transformative births of my own four children, each one shaping my heart and deepening my passion for supporting others through this sacred journey. In 2020, I followed that calling and founded Mountains of Love Doulas to provide families with evidence-based guidance, emotional encouragement, and hands-on support. Now rooted in Berthoud, Colorado with my husband and our four kids, we soak up every moment we can outdoors—when I’m not holding space for another beautiful birth.

I can't thank Mary enough for all her help during my pregnancy and birth. She recommended stretches to help with debilitating hip discomfort during my third trimester (which totally fixed my issue in a week)! She also helped assist me in the unmedicated waterbirth I had prayed for. She was such a great advocate for me, and her encouragement and knowledge made all the difference. I couldn't have done it without her. Thanks, Mary! God Bless You! -Rachel W.

Hello, my name is Marissa and I'm honored to meet you. I am fascinated by the innate, primitive, and beautiful ability of our bodies to create new life. A hodgepodge of things led me to becoming a certified birth doula and yoga instructor. The two most influential being the births of my own babes. Those close to me would say I have a unique ability to calm a situation, hold a positive space, and intuitively allow things to be. These qualities made sense as a Doula. Additionally, yoga is a big part of my life (a lifestyle, I'd say...) and was immensely helpful through my pregnancies. That's why I offer a holistic approach with prenatal yoga to prepare your mind/body/spirit for an optimal birth. As an LGBTQIA+ doula, I understand that families can be built in many different ways. All that matters is that when a family is created, it happens on a foundation of love, support, trust, and safety. For birthing people, my intention is to support you tenaciously in having the most empowering, transformative, and safe birthing experience as possible. We are not meant to birth alone. As human beings bringing new human beings into the world, it is pivotal to feel affirmed and validated during our most vulnerable and authentic moments. I want you to look back on your birth experience and feel triumphant! No matter what you’ve been through in the past, or what you are envisioning currently, I am here to 100% support your goals and help them come to fruition. For those not birthing and creating a family in a different way, my intention is to support you through all aspects of your unique experience; Planning, transitioning, bringing baby home, etc. I can offer resources and referrals for all of your family's needs. More importantly I can provide Empathy, Compassion, and Presence.

Recent review

We hired Marissa to be our birth doula and we couldn't be happier with that choice. She visited us couple of times before the due date and she was with us throughout labor and delivery and also saw us a couple of times after the birth of our son. Having her with us in the delivery room was very helpful as she coached me through the contractions consistently. She also supported and cheered us on during difficult times and helped us make the right choices for our labor and delivery. She is really sweet and we connected with her instantly since day 1. We highly recommend her.

With a deep-rooted love for nurturing others and years of hands-on experience supporting families, I come to my work as a postpartum doula with warmth, compassion, and understanding. My own experience with postpartum challenges is what truly called me to this work and shaped my philosophy of care. I know firsthand how vulnerable, overwhelming, and lonely the early weeks after birth can feel. Because of this, I am deeply passionate about ensuring new parents feel seen, heard, and supported. I place special emphasis on emotional and mental well-being, believing—both personally and through research- that caring for a parent’s emotional health is just as essential as supporting physical recovery. My goal is to create a calm, grounded environment where families can rest, heal, and begin this new chapter with confidence. By nature, I am profoundly empathetic and nurturing, and many families share that my presence feels calming and steady. I believe some of the most meaningful support comes not from doing more, but from simply being present, offering patience, reassurance, and a safe space to land during a time of great change. I am a natural listener who values connection, trust, and honoring each family’s unique journey. My approach is rooted in gentle guidance, emotional attunement, and meeting parents exactly where they are, so they feel supported as they recover, reconnect, and grow into their new roles.
