About me

I'm Mary Margaret Watson a (CD)DONA. I founded Mountains of Love Doulas based on my lifelong love of all things mamas, babies, & births. As a young child, I dreamt of someday becoming a labor and delivery nurse or a NICU nurse. Because of my experiences during my 4 pregnancies/births and ample experience from years of nannying, my friends flocked to me during their own pregnancies and I became a vessel for comfort & knowledge. I have ample experience with newborns, preemies, as well as micro-preemies. Nothing made me happier than helping new moms with all of the questions that they had. This along with the traumatic birth experiences that I encountered with my own births are the reasons I became a (CD) DONA doula. Unfortunately, I did not experience any of my 4 births with the support of a birth doula and after learning how I could positively affect the outcome of a mother’s experience, I knew this was the career path for me. I waited until my 4 boys were all in elementary school and beyond before pursuing my dream of being a doula. Now that they are 7,8,11,&15 time has presented itself to be the time for me to pursue my dream . From an educational perspective, I have a background in Early Childhood Development and Child Life, where I worked as a Pre-k teacher and counseled terminally ill children. In October of 2020 I began my path towards becoming a certified doula through DONA International. I strive to provide my clients with informative, compassionate, emotional, and physical support. I want every mom to feel empowered to use her instinct and the knowledge she learns to make informative decisions about her pregnancy and birth journey. I also assist and train clients and partners with all of my magical doula tools that aid in labor progression and pain reduction during labor and birth. I strive to make the partner feel included and valued as part of the birthing team. I'm excited to chat with you about how Mountains of Love Doulas, LLC. can be of support to you or your loved one and I look forward to having an opportunity to connect with you. Originally fromMississippi, I reside with my family North of Longmomt, CO where we enjoy all the outdoor activities that CO has to offer.
