Find a Pregnancy & Postpartum Provider Near Me in Rochester, MN

Hello and Congratulations on your new arrival! I've been a birth doula since 2018 through the organization DONA. Every birth I have assisted with has been a beautiful and a learning experience for me. I feel blessed to be a part of this special moment in the lives of my clients. My practice provides you and your partner with continuous emotional and physical support. You are in charge, but a doula can assist with you staying in charge, especially in a hospital setting. Doula's are skilled at helping to alleviate the fear factor of giving birth. Every mother deserves a doula, and I hope you would consider me to be yours. Best wishes! Rhonda

Hi there! I’m the founder of Independent Sleepers and a proud mom of two. With over 10 years as an ICU RN and 2 years in the NICU, I bring both medical expertise and a mother’s heart to my work. As a certified pediatric sleep consultant and newborn care specialist, I’ve guided thousands of families to restful nights and consistent naps. Most babies I work with sleep through the night within just a few nights, and settle into proper nap routines within 2 weeks.

Who is taking care of YOU? While many people are focused on your medical health and safety or the excitement of the new baby, I am focused on YOUR needs and desires. There is so much pressure put on moms to have a healthy pregnancy, a certain type of delivery, feed baby a certain way, and the list goes on. You are doing your best, and you deserve to be seen and supported. You are carrying the weight of the world, and I'm here to lighten your load. I'm Brooke, a birth doula in Northfield MN, and I help moms build confidence in birth and motherhood through evidence based research, postpartum planning, and my undivided presence at your birth. I believe that birth is a natural, healthy, and beautiful life event, and that we can trust our bodies through it. But most of all, I believe that YOU should get the right to know your options, to choose what sits best with you, and to be completely supported. No judgment. Let's chat and see if I'm a good fit for you!

My name is Kelly Martin, and I am a Licensed Certified Professional Midwife located in the Twin Cities South Metro. Coming from a background of 30 years as a Birth Doula, it has been my experience that pregnancy, labor, and birth have the potential to transform individual, family, and a communities healthy birth practices by integrating current evidence-based research standards of practice with holistic midwifery wisdom. I have a deep trust in birth.

I am a nurse by trade, Craniosacral Therapy provider International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant, Certified Hypnobirthing educator and trained doula. I have also completed Tethered Oral Tissues Specialty (TOTS) training. I have been supporting expectant parents and families for more than a decade previously as a Labor and Delivery nurse and doula. I believe that our bodies can help heal themselves, if we listen to them. I also believe that supporting families goes beyond the birthing location. It is my passion to support families before, during birth, and beyond.

Hello! My name is Madi and I’m a birth and postpartum doula. I was called to enter this work to nurture and empower mothers & fathers in pregnancy and beyond. I have 5 years of patient care experience in critical care, trauma, and hospice, which built me up to handle pressure and understand how to hold people when in pain. I had talked about birth work since having my daughter in 2022, and I finally took a leap of faith. Thank you for reading!! And God bless.

As your doula, I’m your non-medical teammate from bump to baby. I bring a DACM background, midwifery training, and deep somatic skills to offer steady, practical support—not needles. Prenatal: We clarify your birth values, map options, and rehearse pain-coping (breath, movement, vocalization). I coach your partner in acupressure, counterpressure, positioning, and other comfort measures (such as back pressure, heat/cold, and the use of a birth ball) so they feel confident and helpful. Labor & Birth: I create a calm field: rhythmic touch, position changes for progress, temperature/lighting tweaks, hydration cues, and clear communication with your team. I help you stay grounded, heard, and in choice. Postpartum: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)- informed recovery—warming meals, gentle herbal teas/compresses, rest planning, and somatic down-regulation—to support hormones, bleeding, and mood in the early weeks. What I don’t do: clinical tasks, medical advice, or acupuncture at the birth. What I do exceptionally well: nervous system steadiness, pain-coping support, and partner coaching so your birth feels collaborative, supported, and yours.

Hi! I'm Ella. I am a mother to one beautiful daughter born in 2022. I also have a dog who is an English pointer lab mix that is full of energy and loves meeting new people. I live in Lakeville and am serving around the Twin Cities area. My interest in being a doula started when I realized I was really fascinated with birth after having my daughter. I also love supporting those around me and supporting expecting moms seemed to be the best way to support those in my community. My personal experience with pregnancy and birth were both challenging and empowering. To hear that story you would hear about personal transformation, courage, fear, and an immense amount of joy. As a doula I give expecting moms guidance and physical support through labor and birth to help them feel empowered and confident. With my calm and patient approach I create a nurturing space where you can explore your emotions and preferences freely.
