Hello, my name is Lauren Andrews. I am a Postpartum Registered Nurse located in Winter Haven, Florida! I fell in love with taking part in the miracle of life and am constantly looking for new ways to learn and help others through their postpartum experience. Although having a baby can be one of the most exciting moments, the stages afterwards can seem daunting and tiresome. I am here to help in caring for mothers postpartum, assist with newborns, and guide in breastfeeding all while providing education and emotional support. In my free time I enjoy making new friends, traveling, reading, and spending time with my fur babies! I am looking forward to you reaching out so I can become your new postpartum friend and help you through this beautiful journey.

Trauma-Informed Birth & Postpartum Doula + Mind-Body Birth Support Specialist - serving sensitive souls, trauma survivors & diverse families with holistic, inclusive care. Virtual support worldwide | In-person in Philadelphia, Florida & travel throughout US I believe in care that meets you exactly where you are - honoring both the profound transformation and messy reality of reproductive experiences. As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner in Training with a psychology background, I offer trauma-informed doula care that integrates nervous system regulation and mind-body birth support, going beyond logistics to address the emotional complexity, relationship dynamics, and identity shifts that accompany life-changing transitions. After navigating my own pregnancy experiences with minimal support and feeling dismissed by medical systems that couldn't hold the complexity of mind/body connection, I became passionate about offering the embodied, compassionate support I needed, but couldn't find. My approach centers on the emotional and relational complexities of becoming parents - drawing from over a decade of therapy-informed intimacy and relationship coaching to focus on the psychological and somatic shifts that come with growing a family. I specialize in supporting empaths, sensitive souls, gentle rebels, and those seeking heart-centered, evidence-based, identity-affirming care that honors their full humanity. Whether you're seeking birth doula support, postpartum care, pregnancy loss support, or prenatal preparation, I provide grounding support through nervous system regulation, practical advocacy, body-based somatic tools, and steady, non-judgmental presence that helps you stay connected to your own wisdom while navigating medical systems and profound personal transformation.

From the moment we connected, Lorrae created a space where I felt genuinely seen, affirmed, and supported in ways that are unfortunately rare in healthcare settings. During my pregnancy, she consistently prioritized my needs, choices, and comfort over any agenda, and did not push me toward any particular protocol or outcome. Lorrae is exactly the kind of practitioner our community needs. She combines professional skill with authentic compassion, and her nervous system regulation tools became invaluable during both labor and postpartum. She has a gift for creating calm in moments of intensity. Beyond her clinical skills, Lorrae embodies genuine care and integrity and I cannot recommend her highly enough to other parents seeking support.

Hi there ! My name is Miatta and I would love to assist in your family’s postpartum journey. I am caring, nurturing and enjoy assisting with newborn care, family adjustment, emotional and physical recovery from birth and so much more. I look forward to hearing about how I can help you and your family.

Recent review

Miatta was fantastic and very caring oriented to what I needed after I had my daughter Sophia. I am a new single mom who had no one to support or be there for me. I was honored to have Mia by my side during the birth of my daughter. She provided me with meals through the day and evening, even made some to freeze for when I would be doing things on my own. She helped with night feedings, diaper changes, assisted with helping me heal from after birth by providing baths and showers. She helped with getting us to our appointments and taking part in those. She was very encouraging and always had a positive attitude towards me when I would be feeling at my lowest and discouraged when it came trying to get my little one to latch on for nursing. The care and attentiveness she gave Sophia and I was more than I expected and could have asked for from anyone else. I could not have asked for a better person to help in my recovery and postpartum care that first week home from the hospital.

Hi, I’m Payton I’m a full spectrum doula who supports families through fertility, birth, postpartum, abortion, and loss. My heart work is helping women step into their innate power and knowledge so they can birth confidently and autonomously. In postpartum, I find joy in nurturing and nourishing mama so she can focus on healing and rediscovering herself. My goal is to bring back community care, traditional healing practices, and ancient wisdom.

Recent review

We were so fortunate to have Payton with us during our triplet girls’ first year of life. She began as our overnight doula when they were newborns and later transitioned into their full-time nanny while we worked. Caring for three babies at once is no small task, yet Payton handled it with consistency, dependability, and so much love. She has a calm, soft-spoken presence that was incredibly comforting in those early months. Her experience with newborns truly stood out as she seemed to know exactly what each baby needed and provided the highest level of care. Beyond caring for the girls, she also kept our kitchen tidy and made sure supplies were always stocked, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders as new parents. What stood out most was the joy Payton clearly took in caring for the girls, and how much they adored her in return. The bond she formed with them was so special, and we always felt complete peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. We are deeply grateful for her support during such an important season of our lives and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

I'm an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). My passion for lactation began 10 years ago after exclusively breastfeeding my first baby while struggling with PCOS and low thyroid. I finally began my lactation career as a Breastfeeding Peer Counselor during the pandemic right after having my own pandemic baby. My story is a lot like the families I help and that drives my passion for being that voice to encourage moms not to give up on their feeding goals even if I am the only voice in their corner. As an IBCLC I provide prenatal breastfeeding education, postpartum breastfeeding support, and professional guidance for aspiring IBCLCs. Whether you are a seasoned mom or a first time mom you deserve support on your lactation journey.

Hello, I’m Menita Aka Nita , a certified doula and the heart behind Royal Goddess Doula. With a background in childcare. I’ve spent the last year and half passionately supporting families through one of life’s most transformative experiences: bringing a new soul into the world. My journey into doula work was inspired by my two best friends and their journey to motherhood and support and scary situations they were in during labor and delivery . I realized that every family’s birthing journey is profoundly unique and deserves individualized emotional, physical, and informational support. I offer a variety of services tailored to your needs, including prenatal consultations, continuous labor support, and postpartum care. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practice and a deep respect for the natural process of childbirth. I aim to provide a nurturing, safe, and empowering environment for you and your family, helping you make informed choices that align with your personal birth plan. I’d be honored to be a part of your birthing team and support you in creating the birth experience you desire.

Menita is an incredible doula. She truly brings you comfort, confidence, charisma and makes you feel like the Goddess you are. Having her for your birth experience is incredible, she sets up an ambience of warmth, soothing music, dim lights and just the right amount of encouragement to bring the beautiful life into the world. Not only does she support you and guide you through prenatal care, labor and delivery, she also tenderly cares for you during postpartum. When you need that nurturing and empathy the most, she is right by your side. I Highly recommend to have Menita as your doula.

Hello there! My name is Jayde and I am a wife, mother of 2, and Certified Birth Doula for the central Florida area. Assisting others in feeling safe, supported, and empowered throughout their birth is my passion and I would love nothing more than to do so for you! I provide emotional, informational, and physical support for every birth type whether that be in a hospital, birth center, or homebirth setting. I believe it's important each person find the right fit for them, so I provide a free meet & greet interview to all potential clients. Every mom deserves a doula, and every baby deserves a peaceful and happy welcome on their birthday.

Recent review

Jayde is a true gem in the world of birth support, and her presence can truly make a difference in your birthing experience. I recently welcomed my baby girl unmedicated, in the quiet environment of my own home. I couldn’t have done this without the unwavering support of Jayde as my doula. Jayde is nothing short of phenomenal. Since the first day we met, she showed up prepared to listen, understand my needs, talk over my fears and doubts, and offered many resources to prepare for D-day and postpartum. During the birthing process, Jayde knew how to guide me to follow intuitively what my body needed, offered various options to ease and soothe the labor intensity. Her repeated affirmations and physical strength supported me in pushing through many physical and mental edges of labor. She also skillfully created a space that allowed my partner to actively participate while providing the physical cues and mental strength needed to navigate the process. Jayde is selfless; she is fully present and focused on supporting her clients. This, and more, makes her an outstanding, reliable doula to add to your team.

Kristin Bunch is a true inspiration and a helpful person. She genuinely cares about how her energy affects others, to a point while she will read the room and I appreciate that. We didn’t always match well with physical touch, as I am a more reserved person who monitors who she allows to touch her. It was different with a doula who loves hugs and being loving at all times, which in the end was all I needed to warm my heart. I swear her personality and persistence makes her a true treasure and an angel to this world. I appreciate and respect you for all you have done for me and my family! Much love, TaMarria

Stephanie is a board-certified lactation consultant (IBCLC), which is the gold standard for lactation and infant feeding support. She is currently practicing in and around Lakeland, FL through her private practice GROW Lakeland, LLC. She first started working with families in 2017 as a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and postpartum doula, and quickly realized that supporting families was her professional calling. The road to IBCLC is long and challenging, but she aced the board exam in 2022 and launched GROW in 2023. Shortly after passing her board exam, she jumped straight into advanced training programs for oral function & ties, bottle refusal, and Infant Reflexes to better support local families dealing with the most difficult feeding challenges.

Working with Stephanie at GROW was a dream! I had worked with several other lactation consultants in the area without much success. I'm so glad I found Stephanie!!
