Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Panama City, FL

Originally born and raised in Texas, Jessica has called Arizona home since 2015. Although the heat is brutal, she prefers that to Texas or the cold any day. She loves to spend time in nature and go on hikes and enjoy the beauty of the world around her. For the last 5 years she has owned and operated a residential cleaning business. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in business in 2022 while pregnant with her 4th daughter. She and her wife share 4 beautiful daughters whose ages range from toddler to teenager. Jessica is a certified postpartum and trained birth doula who has been supporting families since 2016. Her journey to this work started 5 years after motherhood began, when her new provider for her second pregnancy told her she was a great candidate for a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). After taking a childbirth education course and meeting her first ever doula, her mind was opened to the education, choices, and options there are when being pregnant, in labor, and freshly postpartum. Jessica is passionate about helping others access that knowledge and feel confident in combining education, intuition, and support to make the best decision for their baby. As a postpartum doula, her goal is to respect your sacred space and provide daytime or overnight support to help ease your transition from pregnancy to motherhood (or adding an additional family member). She uses her experience servicing clients homes, her education and training, and journey raising and caring for her own children, to lovingly support families whatever way that enhances their experience the most.

Piyali,(Hello), I am Alexis, a mom to 3, wife and indigenous doula. My family is Nahuatl and Mayan. Both cultures playing incredible roles in the rich history of birth work. I first got into birth work after a tough delivery with my first little. I knew birth wasn’t meant to be scary. Birth is a transformative, inceredibly sacred experience that should be honored and not feared. In 2022 I left my job working for a federaly recognized tribe to persue birth work. In 2023 I officially launched by doula business and in 2024 I began assisting midwives who have been birthing babies for over 45 years. Working along side elders in the birth community has truly impacted the way I navigate and see birthwork. It has been an honor and extremely educational working along side these women. As a doula/birth educator I encourage mothers to listen to their intuition AND understand the way our bodies work to grow, nuture and birth our babies. My only goal is to educate and support moms through their birth choices. I want mothers to feel held and cared for during this transformative time. *I also accept some insurances, including medicaid. *

My name is Valery Lawton and I have 25+ years of experience in maternal and child health. I am a child birth educator, certified lactation consultant and a (CD) DONA Doula. My goal is walk this journey of labor and birth with you. In my experience, I have learned that there are solid evidence-based practices and values that support the way a mother should and can labor. Here are just a few... A mother has the right to choose her birth desires in a birth plan and alter them at anytime. You are an AMAZING woman to bring forth a child. Delivering vaginally and unmedicated is just as much mental as it is physical. The ability to remain mobile and to labor how you feel is significant and having the ability to push in the position best for you and for optimal openness is paramount because 10 centimeters does not mean time to push. Allow the body to naturally tell you when it feels the urge to push. Having medical interventions and/or a C-section does not make you a failure or any less of a parent. When your baby is born, the mother is born also! Postpartum support and care is extremely important and needs as much planning if not more as your birth. Breastfeeding needs patience, support, and a comfortable space to express your feelings.
