I’m a pediatric physical therapist who specializes in treating babies ages newborn to newly walking. I often treat diagnoses such as developmental delay, torticollis, and pre/post tongue tie release. I am trained in craniosacral therapy and myofascial release therapy. I see patients in home or in a clinic space. I’m also a yoga teacher and often teach parent/baby yoga classes as well as developmental classes.

My name is Becky Hodge. I live south of the KC Kansas area. I’m a mom of three, 20, 22 and 26 and married over 30 years. I’ve always had a passion for taking care of others, so, no matter what season of motherhood you are in, first baby or beyond you deserve to be heard, seen and loved on. I’m currently taking Post Partum Doula training courses to help educate myself how to help families get to know, understand and bond with their baby. I would love to help you with light housework, errands, babies' laundry, watching baby while you take a well-deserved nap or shower and make you a home cooked meal. Overnights are also available, so you get a good night's sleep while I care for your little one. In my free time I love just being with my family playing games, baking/cooking, and my guilty pleasure is a delicious, iced coffee!

My goal as a doula is for you to have the most positive, peaceful birth experience possible. My first pregnancy brought challenges that forced me to adapt the plans I had made of how things would unfold. I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by supportive, knowledgeable women who helped me navigate these changes and still be able to say that bringing our son into the world was an amazingly positive experience! I’m passionate about helping you not only ease pregnancy discomforts, but providing the support you need to feel informed, empowered, and ready to make confident decisions for your birth experience.

Amber was recommended to me by multiple friends who had previously hired her. We connected in my second trimester, and Amber was great from the start. She was always available via text or call, and her doula co-op offered three classes on late pregnancy comfort, labor positions, interventions, etc. She attended my entire labor and delivery and provided terrific informational, physical, and emotional support throughout the day. She helped me achieve my goal of an unmedicated birth, took photos of my first moments with my son, and checked in frequently throughout the first week postpartum. Truly an excellent experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend her!

Hi! I’m Lauren Spencer, labor support doula and childbirth educator. I currently live in Independence, MO and am embracing the joy, chaos, and love that raising two toddler boys brings! I am a follower of Christ, love the outdoors, and am blessed to cross paths with you! After my birth with my youngest, I felt a calling to help serve and support other families as they navigate all things pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. That's when Beloved Births KC was born!

We chose to have Lauren as our doula with our third pregnancy. This was my first time using a doula and it made a world of difference! Her expertise, calming presence, and intuition was invaluable for my unmedicated induction. She helped with advocacy making sure all our wishes were honored. She was so helpful to my husband as well, teaching him comfort measures, counter pressure, and helping him to be involved throughout labor. I am so glad I decided to have a doula as an extra set of hands for my unmedicated birth. She also has amazing tools such as red light therapy and a birth sling. I cannot recommend Beloved Births KC enough! She is worth every penny!

Hi! My name is Kylee Carlisle. I have had the privilege of working with families since beginning my career in labor and delivery in 2008. During this time, I found a love for education and breastfeeding support. I have 4 sweet babies of my own and the struggle and awe of breastfeeding them I have discovered the joy in helping others navigate their own breastfeeding goals.
