Night Nannies & Night Nurses Near Me in Prescott Valley, AZ

Hi! I'm Betsy Gillespie. I am a mom of 6, ages 18 down to 4. I have been interested in birth work since high school, and am fulfilling my dream of serving mothers during the precious time of motherhood. I have given birth both at home and in a hospital and I believe women should be free to give birth in the location where they feel the most safe. I am certified as a childbirth educator and a birth and postpartum doula through the Madriella Doula Network. I became fascinated with birth during my first pregnancy when a trip to the library introduced me to Sheila Kitzinger, a cultural anthropologist who studied birth around the world. The idea that "American birth" is not the only way opened up a whole new world to me. Since then, I have desired to see women be better informed of their options surrounding birth. What better way to help along this dream than to serve such women as a doula and childbirth educator! I also am very interested in biomechanics - the idea that the way we use our bodies can affect our long term health. So all of my services include a "movement" component, where we cover ideas of alignment, body geometry, and stretches that specifically address issues mothers face during pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

With a deep passion for birth and over 25 years of experience birthing and raising my own children, I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and intuitive presence to your journey into parenthood. As a trained birth and postpartum doula, I offer compassionate support through pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period. My approach is grounded in respect for your choices, evidence-based care, and a deep understanding of the emotional and physical transformations of birth. In addition to my work as a birth doula, I also serve as a birth assistant to a local midwife, giving me valuable hands-on experience in various birth settings. Whether you're seeking guidance in birth preparation, hands-on labor support, or nurturing postpartum care, I am here to ensure you feel supported, informed, and empowered every step of the way. Let’s connect and create a birth experience that honors your unique needs.

I have spent over 25 years as an infant care RN, mostly in the NICU and am certified as a Low Risk Maternal-Infant care nurse. After some soul-searching about my true career passion, I have discovered that I am the most enthusiastic about helping mamas with breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is often depicted as a simple method of feeding your newborn. It is a natural process, but may not go smoothly at first. It is completely normal to have challenges in the beginning, but with the right kind of support those challenges can be overcome. It’s my goal to be just that right support!

I am a mother. A Postpartum Doula and a Birth photographer. My passion is telling birth stories through my photography. I thrive on educating and supporting families during the fourth trimester. I’m an advocate for reproductive health. I support all people postpartum no matter the journey.
