Hi there, I'm Jen, the doula and photographer! I offer maternity, birth and newborn sessions. I am married to my wonderful husband with whom I share seven energetic kiddos, ranging in age from 1 to 12 years! My personal birth experiences, a mix of hospital and home, are what ultimately ignited my passion for helping other women along in their journey to motherhood. It baffled me that so many women don't receive the support and education they deserve. My youngest 3 children were born at home, and I was then able to finally experience how powerfully transformative birth can be when done with absolute support and reverence to the process. It wasn't until the birth of my 7th child, I felt the Lord impress upon my heart to pursue birth work. After linking up with Sylvia Scarlett, I attended a DONA International doula training course with the amazing Rae Davies to gain a broader perspective of birth, aside from my very own, diverse experiences. All of which has helped shape me to become the woman, mother, and doula I am today. I am THRILLED to come alongside you and your family to reclaim your power as well as capture those intimate moments for you to cherish forever.

Please note, if you message me here I might not see it. Please text me or send an Instagram DM. Thank you. My name is Gaby, I am a nurse, doula and mother, located in Jacksonville, FL. I have Christian/ Catholic values, and I believe every baby is a miracle. I am an advocate to bring holistic, natural and traditional birth methods to mothers from the high risks population to regular. I believe birth and labor are an invitation to live safe, goodness, truth and beauty, and if the mother is not invited to live that, something is wrong! Get a doula like me to educate you& your family and take all your fears away! I am used to water births, home births, OR births, birthing centers, hospital births, really everything! I will help you build the birth plan of your dreams! I am passionate about bringing strength to difficult moments and I love to assist with breastfeeding, and will go above and beyond to make that happen if that’s your desire! I also love photographing the delivery moment. I also offer postpartum services to help families adapt to the newborn phase. I also love chocolate. Hope we can connect!

I am so glad that I had Christin M as my doula, both times I gave birth. She is knowledgeable, calming, steady, and supportive. The support I received while pregnant and during labor/delivery was just what I needed and my husband and I were so glad to have her on this journey with us.

We cannot say enough good things about Caitlin! She was amazing. She made the experience so calm and stress free, she would step in when my husband got tired (😅) she was as hands on/off as I wanted and the items she brought with her to make the hospital dreamy/cozy was awesome! She was there for anything I needed. A super selfless doula and genuinely cares about you & birth!!! Can’t recommend her enough! You won’t regret it!

Hello! My name is Haley and I am a birth and postpartum doula as well as a raw birth photographer located in St. Augustine, FL and serving areas around me, Jacksonville, Orlando, palm coast and come central Florida cities. Prior to becoming a Doula I was a Nurse of seven years and have a wide background in photography. I enjoy all things family, babies and birth! I cannot wait to meet you!

Recent review

There's so much to say about Haley so I hope I can make this all fit. She was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. For my postpartum she was there as a postpartum live-in doula the moment I called until she and I both knew I was ready to be 100% on my own. My husband was deployed when I had my little babe, so Haley had big shoes to fill & she did just that. She did everything from verbally encouraging me through my transition, to physically helping me where I needed it the most. She helped prep my meals for the days to come, she helped with my little one so I could eat on my own, shower or get some time to myself to just breathe. She was extremely understanding, sweet, compassionate & my voice when I needed to be heard. Without her, I'm not sure how my first weeks would have been. She made it so much easier for me to transition into this new role of being a mom. 
She also took AMAZING newborn photos of my little babe & they are something that I will forever cherish. They captured every little detail and precious memory of my baby. She was so gentle and excellent with him. During the photos he never once made a noise and was completely comfortable the entire time. She handled everything so flawlessly from one thing to the next, you could really tell she was comfortable and knew what she was doing which allowed me to put so much trust into her & I couldn't be more grateful for her. When we decide to have another baby, Haley is the first person I am calling and I would 100% recommend her to any family or friends having a baby. She truly makes you'r experience one of kind and removes all the stress

Let me start by saying, I had no idea I even needed a doula until I met Katharine! I truly cannot define her job for you. I just don't have the words. What I do know is, Katharine listened to what I needed, took care of me and saw me through until the very end. Pregnancy and labor are both passage ways to becoming something beyond your current self. For this life transition, you're going to want Katharine! Katharine's overall presence and guidance throughout my entire pregnancy was infinitely the best thing for me, my fiancé and my baby girl! I wish she was still in LA because i’d get pregnant right now to have her with me. We love you, mama. You are everything and more!
