Welcome, I’m so glad you’re here! My name is Renea, and I founded Roots of Radiance from a deep passion for supporting families through some of life's most transformative experiences. As a birth and postpartum doula, mindfulness coach, Certified Medical Assistant, and healthcare educator with more than a decade of experience, I bring together evidence-based knowledge, compassionate care, and a holistic approach to emotional well-being. My journey into birth work led me to support families within birthing center settings, working alongside midwives and witnessing firsthand the strength, vulnerability, and beauty of the transition into parenthood. These experiences continue to shape the way I serve my clients today, with steady guidance, practical support, and a deep respect for each family's unique path. I believe that birth and postpartum are not simply events to move through, but profound rites of passage that deserve thoughtful preparation, meaningful support, and space for personal growth. Whether you are preparing to welcome your first baby or adding to your family, my goal is to help you feel informed, confident, and connected to yourself throughout the journey. Service is at the heart of everything I do. In addition to supporting my clients, I volunteer with families in my local community through Austin Angels, an organization dedicated to providing consistent support and meaningful connections to children, caregivers, and families. As an extension of that commitment, a portion of every Roots of Radiance booking is directed toward supporting the families I serve through these outreach efforts. When you choose to work with me, you are also helping strengthen and uplift families within our community. It is truly an honor to walk alongside families during such a sacred season of life, and I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

Hiring Renea as our doula was one of the best decisions we made. During prenatal she was great support in planning our birth preferences and showing us exercises to utilize before baby got here. During birth she was integral in keeping me calm and flexible in my decisions. She also put me in several positions that made laboring easier. After birth she has been showing me so much support with postpartum hours by coming by and helping out with the baby on days where I’m exhausted. Through it all she’s been a great sounding board for all of my emotional concerns and questions around lactation, milestones, etc. I’m so happy we have her in our lives

Hi y’all, For those interested in using a doula for your next pregnancy I highly recommend Juanita Lewis-Jones. She offered prenatal, delivery, and postpartum support and has been an absolute blessing to my husband and I. Doulas provide emotional support and work along side the medical providers. Juanita attended my first delivery at BAMC, helped me understand my options, and allowed me to make critical decisions in the labor room when it was most needed. She has such a calming presence and I felt comfortable leaning on her for guidance and support. Juanita is retired military and is very familiar with our particular needs as we are here on military orders and do not have any family in the area. She met with us virtually which made our meetings so convenient for our busy schedules. I would recommend requesting a doula early in pregnancy as their services are well sought after; however, they give priority to military, teen moms, and low income families. We have Christian and Buddhist backgrounds. If you’d like to incorporate belief into your journey, she will accommodate the request, but won’t push any particular sect which was perfect for our bi-cultural family. I recommend to every pregnant mom I meet to allow a doula to be part of their birth story. Juanita made all the difference in our experience. We have a healthy baby girl and I have healed both mentally and physically more quickly than I ever thought possible and I full heartedly believe it was due to her influence and support. We are better prepared as parents and partners to each other moving forward. We do and will always love Juanita like a family member Sincerely, Erika & Alex Rattanatay

I'm a mom of 4 & Nana of 1, married to my soulmate for almost 24 years. Proud to be an Air Force veteran, I was Active duty when my first was born. Her birth was eye opening... and the reason I sought out different options for my second birth. My second was the first of 3 redeeming and beautiful home births, and that experience is what ignited my passion for birth. I wanted to be a midwife for several years but that wasn't in the cards. It was years later, shortly after making the move to pursue photography, that I found my passion in birth photography. From there, my desire to support and encourage birthing families only grew, and I sought out certification as a doula. Obviously I love being there when a sweet little soul makes its debut. It's more than that though! As a birth worker, I have the honor and privilege of witnessing transformations. That realization that they are able, that they are doing it, that they are about to meet their long awaited babies... that they CAN do hard things. That moment is worth the sleepless nights, sore muscles, and changed plans. That moment of empowerment and transformation brings a tear to my eyes. It never gets old. I specialize in documenting birth in photos and films as well as supporting through labor and birth. My passion is seeing each birthing family know their options, understand the pros & cons of each, and making informed choices that support the birth they want. I strive to document those stories (for those clients that desire documentation) to provide a record of that love story as it unfolds. Having had 3 home births personally, I have a deep love of midwifery and out-of-hospital births. I have experience with home and birth center births, hospital births (natural, inductions, epidurals, & cesareans), stillbirths & miscarriage, twins, VBAC, and breech birth.

Hello! My name is Serena, and I am a labor doula, placenta encapsulator, and postpartum doula! I have 3 dogs and 2 cats, and if I’m not working I'm usually with them watching TV. My all time favorite shows are Doctor Who and New Girl, though I’m sure you’d have a hard time finding a show I haven’t seen! I also enjoy reading, hiking, playing games, and spending time with my family. My first step into the doula world was becoming a Postpartum doula. This felt very natural to me, as I have been working in childcare for what feels like my whole life! I started off babysitting for my siblings and my parent’s friends when I was younger, became a teacher in the infant room of a daycare at 18, and a postpartum doula at 21. I decided to step into this field because I love helping families adjust to having a new little one! Supporting labor and delivery was a natural transition as I began working as a doula and stepping more and more into the birthing world. Labor and delivery is truly one of the most beautiful and fascinating events I’ve had the honor of witnessing, and I knew instantly that this is exactly what I was meant to do. That’s such a hard question to answer! For postpartum work, I’d have to say it’s the moments when something finally clicks into place. There's always some trial and error with each baby since they each have their own preferences and personalities, but I love the moments when you figure out how they like to be burped, the quickest way to get them sleeping, which formula works for them, and everything in between! I know it's not possible for me to fix every problem that arises, but it always such a relief when I can help with one. Adjusting to this new chapter of your life can be such a chaotic time, and I truly believe it takes a village! For birth work, my favorite part is seeing birthing people reach deep inside themselves and finding strength they never knew they had. The absolute relief and joy I can see on their face as they hold their little one in their arms for the first time always brings tears to my eyes.

Hello, my name is Crystal Lopez and I am a PCD through DONA. I have been serving families in the community as a postpartum doula for the past 2 years. I am a mother to three beautiful children. I am also a lover of the arts and anything that has to do with self-expression. Fashion and Makeup are some of my favorites!! I love the theater and also indulge in live music of all genres. I love documentaries and learning about different cultures. I am a stargazer and nature lover and also grew up in the country on a ranch. There's nothing like the sound of crickets and a black sky full of stars to help heal the soul. My eldest daughter is going to be 21 years old. As a new mother I found myself with so many questions about the birthing process. I took it upon myself to educate myself and attend birthing classes with the San Antonio birth doulas 21 years ago. It was then that I discovered my love for educating women about birthing and their choice to do so. I have since had two other children with the aid from doulas through SABD and 2 years ago was given the opportunity to help grow the postpartum program through that organization. I discovered the power and importance of mothering the mother after she returns home from the hospital. I learned that support during the postpartum period is very crucial and needed although speaking about it seemed taboo. I have served over 100 families both in and out of work, and each one was more enlightening and empowering on both of our ends.

Hello! I’m Taryn, a birth and postpartum doula born and raised great city of San Antonio! I have been a certified doula since 2022! I have a passion for helping women during the most intimate and vulnerable moments of their lives. By being a doula, I strive to help women find their voice to have a birth experience they can look back on with joy and confidence. I am married to the most wonderful man ever created (yes, I am bias), and together we have been blessed to raise two wonderful children: Ezra and Winnifred. We also have a gigantic white fluffball cat named Bento who loves to eat any type of food (even salads…). Outside of doula work, you will find me gardening, crafting, and playing board and video games! Additionally, I am obsessed with bread baking, and have a sourdough starter that has been alive longer than my kids! In February 2020, my husband and I were blessed to learn we were pregnant. One month later, the world completely shut down. With the unknowns of COVID, hospitals were continually changing policies on who would be allowed to support a mother during birth. With the fear of not having my husband with me, my research on alternatives began. Through my research, I learned about doulas, birth centers, home births, and unmedicated births. I learned that childbirth can be beautiful and joyful with the right support, and I wanted to become that support for other mothers and empower them to be their own voice! Both of my births were very different; one ending in a c-section the other a VBAC. Both have helped me secure my passion for this line of work. After working as a Financial Analyst Manger for a major company, my husband and I decided to take a step of faith and go down a new path. A more rewarding path. A path I know provides true value to our community.

A little bit about myself! I was born in Kansas, raised in Colorado! I moved to Texas in the summer of 2009. I have been a Postpartum and Birth Doula since 2021. Before be coming a doula I received a child development associates degree and became a preschool teacher for 8 years I also ran my own home daycare for a little over a year and I was a private nanny for 2 special needs children. I have a wonderful spouse and 5 beautiful children that are ages 17, 15, 11, 6 and 19 months old! As a family we all enjoy being outdoors, camping, going to the beach, and swimming in the Texas summers! I am a foodie and love going and trying local food trucks! My spouse and I also run our own food pop-up business here in San Antonio! I love being to be able to provide good nurturing meals for people! I became a doula after my own childbirth experiences. I was a teen mom at 15 years old and I didn't really feel supported by the health care system, at that time my mom was around and was very supportive of me and my choices to be a teen mom. But before my 3rd child was born my mom sadly passed away and I felt really alone during that Birth and Postpartum period because I really didn't have that motherly support during that season in my life. After my 4th pregnancy I found out about doulas and was able to have one with me during my birth she was an amazing advocate and helped me navigate so much through my all natrual birth wishes and also taught me how to advocate for myself. After that I knew my calling was to be a doula!! I love listening and supporting new moms any way I can. I feel all expecting parents deserve to have a trusted person that they won't be judged by so that they can feel comfortable asking questions and advice.
