Hi! I’m Liz Alleva, founder of HypnoBirthing Mommy and a certified HypnoBirthing® International Childbirth Educator based in Wilton, Connecticut. I offer private classes in person and virtually throughout the USA and Canada. My passion for this work began with the birth of my son, Mason. Experiencing how preparation, relaxation, and support shaped my own birth inspired me to help other families feel informed, calm, and confident. Before becoming a childbirth educator, I spent 15 years teaching dance in public schools. I studied Dance and Sociology at Wesleyan University and earned my master’s in Dance Education at NYU. That background brings a love of movement, body awareness, and teaching to everything I do. My classes are relaxed and conversational—a welcoming space where no question is silly. We practice breathing, self-hypnosis, relaxation, and partner support, while exploring your options and what matters most to you. Whether you’re planning a hospital, birth center, or home birth, with or without medication, your preferences guide our work together. Mason is still part of the heart of my business. He helps me put together the supplies and little extras we send to families—a personal touch that makes this work even more special to me. My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and prepared, with practical tools you can carry into birth and parenthood. 💛

Hi, I’m Genesis, a DONA Certified Birth Doula, CD(DONA), serving Miami-Dade and Broward County , and providing support in both English and Spanish. I believe there is no one “right” way to give birth. Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, VBAC, or cesarean birth, you deserve evidence-based information, compassionate support, and a birth team that respects your choices. Over the past year, I’ve supported 20 births across South Florida, including unmedicated and medicated births, inductions, cesarean births, and successful VBACs. Every one of those experiences has reinforced something I deeply believe: good doula support isn’t about achieving a particular type of birth. It’s about helping you feel informed, supported, respected, and confident throughout yours. As your birth doula, I provide continuous labor support, birth education, emotional and physical support, comfort measures, breathing and positioning techniques, partner support, and guidance as you explore your birth options and preferences. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to help you feel prepared to make informed decisions that are right for you and your family. As a Latina mother myself, creating a space where families feel seen, heard, and understood is especially important to me. I also love involving partners and family members, helping them feel confident and prepared to support you throughout labor rather than feeling like they have to figure it all out on their own. My goal is simple: for you to look back on your birth knowing that you were supported, respected, informed, and never alone. I’d be honored to be part of your birth story.
