As a mother of two children under two, my journey into doula work was born from personal experience and a deep desire to support families through the transformative stages of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I am passionate about guiding first-time parents through the joys and challenges of antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care. Ensuring they feel informed, empowered, and supported every step of the way. Having both breastfed and formula-fed my own children, I understand that every feeding journey is unique. I provide compassionate lactation and feeding support tailored to your family’s needs, helping you navigate this important stage with confidence. Your birth preferences matter, and I am committed to advocating for your wishes while fostering a calm, low-stress environment. Whether you have a specific birth plan in mind or are still exploring your options, I will support you in making informed decisions that feel right for you and your baby. I am currently completing my DONA certification to ensure I provide the highest standard of care. By the end of the year, I will also be a fully certified Postpartum Doula and Lactation Counselor. Continuing to expand my knowledge to serve families with the utmost care. I would be honored to support you on this journey!

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Alexis and discussing my future plans for pregnancy and childbirth. Even though I'm not pregnant yet, her warmth, charisma, and extensive knowledge have already made a significant impression on me. She's not only incredibly funny and smart but also a great parent herself. I feel confident that when the time comes, I will be in the best hands with her support. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled doula, without a doubt!

I’m a mama of four, a wife, a doula, and a student midwife with a deep love for pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the incredible transition into motherhood. My passion for birth began nearly a decade ago with the birth of my first baby. That experience planted a seed that eventually grew into a calling to support other women and families through their own journeys. You deserve to be heard. You deserve evidence-informed choices. You deserve compassionate support. And you deserve to be an active participant in your own birth.

Allyssa was meant for birth work. When she offered to be my doula (not to mention for free and out of the kindness of her heart!) it was an instant YES because I knew her heart and the passion she has for this field. She was always there for me and was genuine about how I was feeling and offered her help in any way she could. Although my birth was not at home like we originally planned, she was there for me in the hospital room right after my c-section. It meant the world to me to have her there supporting me. Even after my first born and she had moved to a different state, she still continued to check in on me and empathize with me during a rough season I was having. Allyssa is just such a down to earth, sweet, genuine human being- someone you absolutely want by your side as a friend and a birth worker. Go Allyssa! So excited for her and what's to come in this next chapter of midwifery. If I lived closer, I would absolutely have her as my midwife. SHES TOO GOOD!
