About me

My name is Rachel Campbell. I'm a 30-something wife and mama to two crazy kiddos and one dog. I have been immersed in the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum world since 2017 and had two amazing doula-attended births of my own. I decided to take the plunge into doula work in 2021. I completed my CAPPA training in November of 2021 and I'm working toward my official certification. I've seen firsthand what it's like to have long and difficult labors, challenging physical and/or emotional recoveries in the postpartum period, and just about every breastfeeding struggle in the book. It is my hope that the skills I've learned in finding good help and working to identify solutions that aid both Mama AND Baby in equal measure can help other families.

Service introduction

As a doula, my role is to provide your family with physical, emotional, and informational support on your journey through pregnancy and especially in labor and delivery and to empower YOU to make the decisions YOU think are best for your body and your baby. My job is not to perform clinical procedures, make decisions for you, speak on your behalf, or force my own perspectives on you.
