My name is Rachel Klein - the owner and founder of Doula Moon and Back. Birth doulas have been around since the beginning of time, providing counsel and coaching through pregnancy, labor, birth, and the fourth trimester. My commitment is to helping birthing people to feel more confident and positive through their journey of parenthood, by using evidence-based information, comfort techniques, and knowledge drawn from a love of learning. My care as a doula is meant to be an open and non-judgmental environment for families of all types and backgrounds.

5 stars doesn’t seem to be enough for the rating I’d give Rachel. She was with me throughout my pregnancy and so supportive. She took time to really get to know me and my plan for birth. When it came time to go to the birth center she was there the entire time and was caring, nurturing, supportive and cheering me on. When I had to make decisions she was there to provide me with knowledge and help me make the decisions that she knew I wanted. When I was feeling discouraged or upset or anything she was there as my light and positivity to bring me back to center and keep pushing on! She made sure I stayed hydrated, fed, rested & loved during every step. Although this was my longest, most difficult labor, Rachel kept my vision alive, and assured me that I could do this even when I wanted to quit. After having 5 babies and having a doula for the 6th my only regret was not having one everytime. I highly recommend her. I was surprised at how much of a difference it made having that extra support person.

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!
