Hello! My name is Celeste. My desire to become a doula started when I felt called to help and support women through their journey of birth before, during, and after. To this day, I believe my own experience of childbirth with my daughter would have been positively different if I had the opportunity of having a doula. Creating life and bringing it into this world is a superpower women have, and I want to empower other women from all walks of life through this physical, emotional, and spiritual process. Everyone’s childbirth story is different, and I enjoy hearing and learning from their experiences. I love working with babies and have many years of experience, as I worked at a daycare before, during, and after my daughter was born. I am naturally an empathetic and nurturing woman and find joy in making sure everyone around me is well and healthy. My partner and I have big families and we enjoy spending lots of quality time with everyone and creating new memories for my 5 year old daughter, Alayna. Although I love being surrounded by my family and friends, I also enjoy my alone time occasionally. I believe it is important to spend time with yourself to recharge and fill your own cup, so you can then help fill other’s cups. Dancing, reading, and enjoying a nice cup of coffee in the sun are some of my favorite things to do.

I had my first born at a young age. I was afraid to go through the process alone and with a little research I came across blooming birth service by Celeste. One of the best decisions I ever made. She was amazing, anytime I needed her assistance she was present. Celeste would apply to my emails and messages quickly, I knew I was her priority at all times. My son will now be 4 months old and I still reach out with any questions, Celeste never fails to show her amazing commitment to all clients. I highly recommend all expecting Mommy's to service with blooming birth, as the experience is one of a kind.
