My name is Chloe and I have been working with children of all ages for over 6 years. I’m a pro doula certified postpartum placenta specialist, infant care specialist, and postpartum doula. After caring for families of all kinds of backgrounds and in various situations, I’ve realized how much support is actually needed, specifically in the early Postpartums days with your newborn. My goal is to care for your family in a non-biased, evidence-based way to ease your transition into parenthood!

Chloe was the most professional, helpful, and trustworthy postpartum doula imaginable. She had a relaxed/thoughtful demeanor, was incredibly competent, and our baby loved spending time with her. She was always one step ahead of our little guy's development, was the perfect addition to our home, and we really couldn't be more grateful.

Nina, went above and beyond to support me throughout my entire birth journey. From helping me create a birth plan to being there for prenatal visits, emotional support, and even assisting with meals and breastfeeding education after my baby was born, Nina truly is a rockstar. Her kindness, flexibility, and care made such a positive impact on my experience. I had a wonderful and memorable birth journey because of her.

We so often are in search of magic, without realizing we have it right inside of ourselves. For me, becoming a mother has proven that to be true. Birthing Ancestors was created from the idea that when you have a child you are not only birthing a future generation, but you are also birthing yourself as a parent - someone’s ancestor. It is my greatest honor to holistically support you throughout every stage of your childbearing journey, and help you to discover the magic that has always been inside of you. Since becoming a certified Full Spectrum Doula in 2021, I have fallen deeply in love with this work. I have expanded my knowledge to support clients from fertility/preconception planning thru postpartum, with special interests in herbal and nutritional support. I also have 200hr yoga teacher certification giving me knowledge in anatomy, stretching and strengthening muscles, relaxation techniques, and preparing the body for labor.

Micalyn is an amazing doula and I highly recommend her services. I am forever grateful for her crucial role in making my unmedicated, hospital birth a positive and empowering experience. The prenatal meetings were very in-depth and included healthcare during pregnancy, rehearsal of labor positions, and the construction of a birth plan. Micalyn also provided me with handmade herbal tea and was readily available via phone or text at any time I needed support. Going into my birth, I felt prepared and confident. I was immensely thankful for Micalyn’s presence during my labor and birth. Whether it was conversation or physical touch, her peaceful and loving presence was so appreciated. She made the hospital space as beautiful as possible with Christmas lights near the bed and flameless candles around the bathtub. Micalyn collaborated fabulously with the hospital staff, and everyone was very impressed with her. When I was pushing, she was the one who suggested the position change that immediately resulted in my baby’s delivery. Micalyn was right there by my side when my son quickly entered the world: she called to the midwife to catch him and her shoes got drenched with the birthing fluids! Our postpartum visits were extremely helpful. When my son was a few days old, she came over and taught me how to do things such as put a diaper on and wear a baby wrap. She also brought me another handmade tea for sitz baths, which felt amazing. Micalyn is clearly made for this work and I can’t recommend her doula services highly enough!
