Katelyn McGuinness

Hello! I’m Katie! I am certified birth and postpartum doula(DONA).I am located in South Park, Pa. I have been working with little ones for about 15 years and I have been in the birth field for about 3 of those years. I absolutely love supporting families! I have all clearances, CPR certification, and am extremely reliable. On top of being a private doula I also work at Magee Women’s hospital as a prenatal and birth doula for the last three years supporting over a hundred births at this point! Being part of someone’s birth journey is always such an honor. I try to bring a calm and confident presence in the room to help you with all of your birth goals; and help you to have the birth you imagined. If I’m not at a birth or helping a family overnight with their new bundle of joy; you would find me with my little family. My husband and I have been married since 2017 and we have a little boy who is almost 6 years old! Some of our favorite things are camping, going to the movies and vacations to Disney world !

Working with Katie as a night time postpartum doula was truly invaluable during our newborn stage. Those first few weeks can be exhausting, and having professional overnight support made all the difference in our family’s well-being. I was able to rest knowing my baby was in experienced, attentive, and caring hands. She handled feedings, diaper changes, and soothing with such calm confidence, and always kept me informed while still allowing me the uninterrupted sleep I desperately needed. She also helped in my breastfeeding journey as she would bring the baby to me and put the baby back in the bassinet for me so I never had to leave the bed. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, and dependable night time postpartum support. It was one of the best investments we made for our family.

Rachel Murphy

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m a birth doula based in Perkiomenville, PA, and I love supporting families in both Montgomery and Bucks counties. My passion for this work comes from wanting to help parents feel cared for and confident as they step into the big transition of welcoming a new baby. As your doula, I’ll be there to support both you and your partner—helping you feel calm, prepared, and confident through birth and into postpartum. Think of me as a steady, reassuring presence by your side throughout the whole journey. When I’m not at a birth, you’ll usually find me outside with my husband and daughter, soaking up the fresh air. And in quieter moments, I love to knit—especially baby blankets, which have become my favorite little keepsakes to make.

Rachel is exceptional. Working with her as our Doula for my first pregnancy was the best decision my husband and I made. She provided valuable prenatal education and resources along with being readily available to answer questions and discuss anything I was concerned about. During labor, Rachel served as a kind, steady and calming cheerleader and coach not just for me, but for my husband as well. He felt just as supported and cared for as I did. I had a long and difficult labor that ended with a C-section and I do not exaggerate when I say that I wouldn’t have survived without Rachel. She did everything from walking my husband through different comfort measures to help me, to holding me through the epidural procedure, and feeding me honey sticks to help keep my energy up. She was a calming and encouraging presence through our biggest life change of becoming parents. I deeply appreciated that postpartum visits are part of what Rachel offers. Those meetings were so helpful in processing through the birth experience and all that comes with postpartum healing and caring for a newborn. Rachel is a life saver and just a genuinely wonderful person. I highly recommend working with her!

Hi! I'm Amanda, a birth doula who is passionate about women's health. I believe your birth experience with your baby can be positive and beautiful. This passion started for me when I had my first child, and my love for birth, babies, and women's health has only grown since. I love supporting women and families through this big life change. As a doula, I'm an addition to your team to help you integrate what you hope for your birth. I'll anticipate your needs, respond with compassion, and bring knowledge and tools to help you navigate your situation. I've completed a five week birth doula course with DONA International and continue to educate myself to be able to serve you the best I can.

Recent review

I can’t recommend Amanda enough as a doula. She is one of the most intentional and emotionally intelligent people I know, always deeply connected to those around her. Her ability to connect with people in different settings and build lasting, supportive relationships is remarkable. She balances warmth and kindness with professionalism and can be direct when it matters most, ensuring everyone feels heard and understood. Her passion for birth is undeniable, and her open-minded approach creates a space where you never feel judged, no matter what choices you make. She’s incredibly dependable, emotionally present, and will go above and beyond to meet your needs. As a mother herself, Amanda has worked hard to create beautiful, empowering birth experiences, which speaks to her deep understanding and respect for the process. I truly believe anyone who works with her will be in the most capable, compassionate hands.

Hi! My name is Brooke and I’m a DONA certified birth doula serving Clearfield Pennsylvania and the surrounding counties! I believe the difference between having a doula at your birth and not can be like night and day! I love meeting new families and tailoring my doula care to whatever their unique circumstances are! Whether you envision your birth being 100% natural, 100% medical or somewhere in the middle, I’m confident my evidence-based knowledge and experience can empower you through your pregnancy, labor and beyond! What I love most about birth is that there are endless possibilities for how it can go, but no matter what it is always beautiful and memorable! I have two amazing daughters of my own and my guilty pleasure is playing video games with my husband after they go to sleep.

Recent review

I had such a positive experience working with Brooke! She provided support throughout pregnancy, labor and delivery, and after baby's birth. Brooke empowered me to express my needs and preferences which led to a positive birthing experience. Her calming presence in the delivery room helped ease my anxiety during the birth of my first child. She stayed with us after baby was born until we were settled in a postpartum room and made sure everyone was comfortable before leaving. Brooke truly cares for her clients and is passionate about her work. I would highly recommend her to anyone expecting!

Larissa Melo Pienkowski

I’m Larissa (she/ela/ella), a birth and postpartum doula based in Philadelphia, PA. My practice is rooted in the beliefs that birth is a sacred act of transformation, that birthing people hold innate wisdom in their bodies, and that we all deserve safe, affirming, size-inclusive reproductive healthcare. As a birthworker, I offer a compassionate and comforting presence, intuitive and evidence-based information, physical support, fierce advocacy, and space for birthing people of all identities to move through pregnancy and labor peacefully and confidently. I myself identify as queer and Latina. Eu falo português e adoraria trabalhar com famílias brasileiras. 🇧🇷 In my free time, I love to cook, read, journal, play volleyball, practice Pilates, and make pottery, and I’m passionate about weaving mindfulness, movement, and nourishment into birthwork in ways that uplift radiant, full-body joy. I’m lucky to live with my wife and our Siberian husky, Olaf, in Germantown, Philadelphia.

Have you ever experienced the joy of working with someone who is so clearly doing what they were meant to do? Such is the radiant experience of working with Larissa as a doula. From our first conversation, I connected with her unique combination if confidence, optimism, and groundedness. She always listened with true intention, never trying to push me any which way but instead helping me figure out my own needs and wants for my pregnancy and delivery. She helped fill in gaps in my knowledge and, most importantly, guided me through tough decisions and helped me feel confident in those decisions. She was equally supportive of my partner and their experience. During labor, delivery, and birth, Larissa was my steadfast advocate, and I delivered a healthy baby. Thank you Larissa!

Tina Brown

Hi, I’m Tina, a full-spectrum state certified doula based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I have three years of experience supporting families and have had the honor of attending over 20 births. With a background in healthcare, I bring both experience and a deeply compassionate, nurturing approach to the families I serve. I’m a proud mother of five, grandmother of five, and the founder of a nonprofit dedicated to supporting and empowering families in my community. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that birth is a sacred and deeply personal experience. Every person deserves to feel safe, heard, respected, and supported as they navigate pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the many transitions that come with growing a family. I believe in informed consent, body autonomy, advocacy, and honoring each person’s unique choices without judgment.

I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about my doula, Tina Alisha. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, supported, safe, and cared for. Her presence throughout my journey was truly a blessing, and I’m so grateful that I had her by my side. Tina went above and beyond to make sure I felt confident, informed, and prepared. She listened to my concerns without judgment, encouraged me when I needed it most, and reminded me of my strength when I needed that extra reassurance. Her compassion, patience, knowledge, and genuine love for what she does truly shine through. What stood out to me the most was how Tina made me feel like more than just a client. She genuinely cared about me, my experience, and my baby. She created a sense of comfort and peace during moments that could have easily felt overwhelming. Having Tina as my doula made such a beautiful difference in my experience. I will forever be grateful for the encouragement, support, kindness, and memories she gave me during such an important chapter of my life. She was my voice when I was medically out of it and my babies protector. Solar & I will forever be grateful We Love You Nature Momz 💗❤️

Laporcha Mathis

Hello, I’m Laporcha And Birth work was called to me after my mother passed away. In that moment, I realized she would no longer be there to comfort me, advocate for me, or welcome another child into this world by my side. She would never have the opportunity to be my doula. So, I became one. I became a birth doula for those who need to be seen and heard. For those who have lost their support systems. For those who fear they won't have the beautiful birth experience they dream of. For those whose voices have been silenced but whose hearts have so much to say. For those whose trauma feels louder than their strength. For those who struggle to advocate for themselves. And for the first-time mother who is terrified of walking into motherhood alone. I bring all of me into this work—my own birth experiences, my fears, my healing, my trauma, my gifts, my compassion, and my knowledge. Those pieces have shaped the doula I am today. My mother was the roots of our family. She was our safe place, our strength, and the one who nurtured everyone around her. Though she is no longer here physically, her love continues to grow through me. That is why I chose the name Mello Roots. I will water her legacy through every birth I attend. I will stand beside mothers the way she would have stood beside me. Every mother I support and every baby I welcome becomes another branch on a tree that continues to grow from love, resilience, and community. My hope is that every family I serve leaves knowing they never had to walk this journey alone. Together, we create a village—one birth, one mother, one baby at a time. – Mello Roots LLC Laporcha M.

I was assigned, and worked with another doula throughout my pregnaney and was advised that she might not be the one on call when the baby came. It made me a little nervous when I went into labor on a day i knew my doula was not on call, I was worried about going through labor and birth with someone l've never met before However Laporcha was such a calm presence. And was so wiling to assist and comfort. She was very kind, attentive and easy to talk to, I really appreciated her presence, I would highly recommend Laporcha!
