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. Nothing made me happier than helping new moms with all of the questions that they had. This along with the experiences that I encountered with my own births are the reasons I became a (CD) DONA doula. 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. 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.

Mary was such a great addition to our birth team. She was so compassionate and supportive not only as a doula but as a mother and friend as well! I did not know Mary Margaret before she became my doula but I know she will be a friend and great support person for the rest of mine and my son's life. less

Ms Mary was truly a blessing to work with. She is a very sweet lady who cares very much about the people she works with. She is truly passionate about work she is does and She takes pride in making sure that everything her clients need is taken care of and even goes above and beyond. In our experience she was very diligent, she was very diligent, she communicates consistently, and she made us feel like part of her own family. Mary gave me a gentle push through labor to make sure I was walking through the right steps to progress even when I didn't feel like I could make it. She was very encouraging and she never gave up on us. She even transferred to the hospital with us for an emergency Caesarean birth! She also took some beautiful pictures throughout labor and hospital with us for an emergency Caesarean birth! She also took some beautiful pictures throughout labor and delivery which are so special because we now have documentation of this special once in a lifetime event. We can not thank her enough for her kindness and devotion to helping make this a beautiful experience!" Miah and Aaron -(mom & Dad)

I am so grateful to have had Mary by my side during the birth of my second child” I am so grateful to have had Mary by my side during the birth of my second child. After a traumatic birth experience with my first, I was working through lots of uncertainty and trauma along with dealing with high blood pressure and anxiety. Mary’s loving support, gentleness and advocacy helped me to overcome so much and ultimately have an informed and redemptive hospital birth experience. Her experience and ease as a mother of 4 boys is inspiring! I now consider her a friend and love her spirit. Thank you, Mary!! – Julia, M.
