Doulas that Accept Medicaid in Arizona

Hello! My name is jabria but I go by Rosalind. It was a nickname given to me in the Army. My background is 12 years of medicine as a medic in the Army. I am still serving in the Army national guard. I have my certified personal training certification and group fitness certification; and I am currently enrolled in exercise physiology through Concordia University, in pursuit of practicing medicine as a physician assistant upon completion of my bachelors in Fall 2026; and masters hopefully 2028. I pursued becoming a doula because I have always been passionate about women’s health. In fact, I took up personal training because I wanted to help women in postpartum combat depression and snap back to theirselves. I witnessed many friends struggle with taking the army physical fitness test and figured there had to be some way to be of some impact for all women who may deal with this, in either their career or daily life. Being a doula is important to me because I believe that women need more support in child birth and labor. I want to be apart of breaking the stigma with childbirth being painful and scary. I want to be apart of making childbirth more comfortable and a beautiful experience for women. I also believe with my expertise that I could offer packages that benefit women physically and mentally pre and post partum.

In the heart of Tucson, Mackenzie has been a guiding light for families embarking on the transformative journey of childbirth since 2019. Her path to becoming a full spectrum doula and postpartum placenta specialist is woven with threads of compassion and a diverse tapestry of experiences. Mackenzie's journey began in the realm of childcare, where she honed her nurturing skills as a babysitter and nanny. Her ability to create a safe and loving environment for children caught the attention of a special family in Tucson. Little did she know, this connection would set the stage for her evolution into a remarkable labor doula. As fate would have it, the family for whom Mackenzie had worked as a nanny found themselves expecting their second child. Remembering Mackenzie's exceptional care for their firstborn, the family not only welcomed the idea of her returning but also suggested the concept of doula support for the impending birth. Recognizing Mackenzie's unique talent for providing emotional support and guidance, they saw in her the makings of an extraordinary doula. Empowered by the trust and encouragement of this family, Mackenzie embraced the doula path with open arms. She delved into extensive training, eager to expand her knowledge and expertise. The transition from nanny to full spectrum doula felt natural for Mackenzie, who had already cultivated a deep understanding of the intricacies of family dynamics and the nuances of caring for newborns. Her background in group homes, experience as a camp counselor, and years spent as a preschool teacher provided Mackenzie with a holistic perspective that she now brings to her doula practice. Her journey from early childhood education to supporting families through the childbirth process allows Mackenzie to offer a unique blend of emotional support, education, and unwavering care. Since 2019, Mackenzie has actively served the Tucson community as a dedicated and compassionate doula. Her commitment to guiding families through the beautiful, challenging, and sacred moments of childbirth has made her an invaluable presence in the lives of those she touches. As a full spectrum doula and postpartum placenta specialist, Mackenzie continues to ensure that each family she supports feels empowered, nurtured, and well-prepared for their unique journey into parenthood.
