Hello! My name is Haley, and I am a certified full-spectrum birthworker. I am passionate about supporting all birthing bodies and holding space for life’s big moments. I love being a steady presence and firm advocate for people throughout their pregnancy, labor, and postpartum experiences. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I also focus on providing inclusive care for people of all sexes, gender identities, relationship models, races, and beliefs.   I have always had an interest in the birth world, but for the first 20 years of my life, I was dedicated to pursuing my love for dance. I moved to Salt Lake City from Akron, Ohio in 2018 to get my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Ballet from the University of Utah. While I was studying for my degree, I started reading everything I could find about becoming a birthworker. My interest turned into an obsession and after dancing professionally for a year post-grad, I felt ready to take a break from dance and pursue birth work full time!    As your birth support, I lean on my intuition and learned skills to guide me. Entering your space with a regulated nervous system allows me to tap into that intuition and support you to the best of my abilities. I believe that birth is one of the most transformative life experiences and I love helping people prepare for it!   As your postpartum support, I meet you where you are and embrace the unknown with you. The postpartum journey looks different for everyone, and each day comes with new challenges and joys. I feel honored every time I am able to support a new family and watch them thrive during this vulnerable, beautiful time.    When I’m not geeking out about placentas and newborn reflexes, you can find me camping in the Uintas, doing yoga in my living room, hiking, snowboarding, dancing, singing bad karaoke at local dive bars, and spending time with my husband and our two cats.

Pregnancy, birth, and babies...I love it all! I see the birth process as a huge opportunity for growth and healing. This is an opportunity for the birthing person to communicate with their body and find their own intuitive & unique way of birthing. This is not just a mother experience but a parent experience, I love getting the partners involved. I am also a massage therapists and birth photographer. Massage during labor can be so helpful and amazing and I love capturing the sweet moments between a couple and meeting your baby! One of my more recent educational experiences is Cranial Sacral Therapy for Infants. I love working with the babies!

Let me start by saying that I NEVER leave reviews unless I was really moved by something. Joleen is such an incredible doula, words can't express enough how much support she provided during my birth experience. She actually cares about her clients and the outcome they desire. I highly recommend having a doula who is also a massage therapist-- a damn good one at that-- I had extreme back labor and needed counter pressure every single contraction. She was with me for 9 or 10 hours and never gave up! She had me move into countless different positions to get my baby to move down and out, and I never felt like we ran out of things to try. My husband was skeptical of hiring a doula at first, but was so thankful that we had her help and that it wasn't all on him after it was all said and done. 😉 I attribute my going natural 100% on the team of people I had with me that day; I would have caved and got an epidural if it was just me and the hubby. My midwife was even complimenting her on how much she was doing to help me! Joleen's gentle guidance was everything. I highly recommend her to anyone who is going to give birth, but especially those who want to have a natural birth!! Having that extra support could really make or break your experience. ❤

Passion for helping others has been ingrained in me for as long as I can recall. Creating a secure space where individuals can embrace vulnerability and find unwavering support is a facet of my character that brings me immense pride. No one should feel alone; it has always been my inclination to extend beyond expectations, offering a comforting presence to loved ones and patients navigating moments of solitude and unease during transitions in hospitals. To me, being your Doula is not just providing you counter pressure and support. It’s about creating that positive birth space for you, where you can completely surrender and lay trust into your surroundings! Where you can be fully present with yourself and your baby as they transition from being a part of you on the inside and into one of their own in your arms on the outside. This is your story that I, as your doula, am honored to be a part of. You are in control of your birth space and who is in it! For each of my birth clients, I craft personally written affirmation cards and offer assistance in materializing your dream birth space. Post-birth, as the fourth trimester unfolds, I step into a role of unique support. This chapter, where families acquaint themselves with quirks and routines, is as distinctive as each individual. As a postpartum doula, I provide physical and mental support—whether it’s lactation guidance, rest, household chores, meal prepping, or engaging in profound conversations about life. In moments of exhaustion and when things seem askew, always remember: You are enough! Beyond my doula work, I engage with clients through informative calls, providing education on a spectrum of topics ranging from childbirth and parenting to Montessori principles. When I’m not immersed in these enlightening conversations, my off-hours are a dynamic blend of creativity and rejuvenation. To stay grounded and invigorated, I venture outdoors, whether it’s through the exhilarating experience of cold plunging or the serenity of a hike in nature.

Madison was crucial in my positive postpartum experience. As our postpartum doula, she helped me, a first time mom, navigate the new realm of caring for my exhausted body while learning about and caring for my newborn. I couldn’t imagine anyone else in my little bubble with me. She had so much expertise and really had a way with my baby. She encouraged confidence in me and allowed for much needed rest whenever I needed it. I can’t recommend her enough. I’d hire her over and over again.

Hi! I'm Morgan, I'm a newer birth doula who's committed to helping you have the most positive birth experience you could possibly have! I'm passionate about helping you advocate for yourself and being someone you can truly lean on and trust in such a chaotic but beautiful moment of your life. I'm someone to consider particularly if you have trouble speaking up for yourself with medical professionals, or maybe a difficult family member who's overstepping boundaries and you would like help. I also am LGBTQ+ friendly and affirming.

Recent review

I wish I could give Morgan 10 stars. She was amazing throughout my entire experience. She helped me through my 33 hours of mostly unmedicated labor by providing foot and head massages, hip pressure, back rubs, and so much more. She also made sure the hospital staff were aware of my birth plan and advocated for me and helped me decide what was right when they suggested we deviate from it. She made labor and delivery so much better than it would have been that I will never have another baby without her.

I have hands-on experience from caring for infants as young as 6 weeks old to supporting school-aged kids up to 12 years old. My background includes working in a daycare setting as well as providing personalized care as a nanny, which has given me a strong foundation in nurturing, supporting, and engaging children of all ages. I’m also currently working toward my doula certification, which reflects my passion for supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My goal is to bring both professional knowledge and compassionate care to the families I work with. I look forward to connecting and supporting families in a way that makes them feel seen, supported, and cared for.

In my experience, working with Bre was wonderful! She is kind, patient and hardworking! She works really well with kids of all ages, but especially the age range of 0-2. I noticed she really builds a bond and connection with them. She is very reliable, as well. I would recommend her 10 times out of 10! She has extensive knowledge about babies and toddlers, and even helped me to learn new parenting techniques to try with my children! Our family loves and misses her dearly.

Hello, I'm Madi! I’m honored to walk alongside you as we explore the world of childbirth together. My own birth experience was a mix of empowerment and trauma, leading to self-doubt and a loss of confidence. However, through those challenges, I discovered a deeper appreciation for motherhood, birth, informed consent, and the resilience of our bodies. I'm so excited to support you through this journey of spirituality and the unstoppable feeling that comes with embracing motherhood.

I became passionate about birth the moment I found out I was pregnant for the first time. Deciding to go through natural child birth was something I always knew I wanted to do and having a doula by my side, as part of my birth team, was something enhanced my birth experienced and allowed me to feel taken care of. It inspired me to want to do for other mothers. I am honored, and blessed to be a part of the births I have been thus far and hope to be able to attend to plenty more.

Being involved in birth work has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember! I graduated from Utah Valley University with a degree in Social work where I found joy in listening, and empowering people. Soon after graduating I gave birth to my first daughter and it reignited my passion for birth and desire to want all mamas to have a positive experience during childbirth. I completed my doula training with songbird maternity learning skills to support mothers such as breathing exercises, optimal positions for labor and pushing, massage and more. I am excited to help you learn more about the beauty of childbirth and feel empowered and amazed at what your mind, body, and baby can do when they all work together!

Recent review

Hiring Charlee as my doula was one of the best decisions I've made and made such a positive impact on the birth and recovery of this baby. I wish I had used her for other births. If I was having more children I'd use her again. It was so helpful to have someone to message when I thought I was in early labor and it gave me more confidence heading into the mental work that comes with labor. Even though I went to the hospital in the middle of the night, she came as soon as possible. I also so appreciated her playing with our 6 kids in our hospital room after baby was born. That meant the world. She far exceeded any expectations I had. She treated us more like family or friends than a stranger. She also was involved postpartum, coming over to help with anything I wanted help with and even provided a meal, snacks, and baby gift. Can't say enough that she exceeded any expectations we had.

I’m a mom to two rainbow babies. I did a lot of research about birth after my first birth went badly. I became a doula so I could help others have the knowledge and confidence to trust and stand up for themselves during birth. I hope to help many families experience beautiful births by helping them listen to their bodies and guiding them through birth.

Sierra was there for me in ways no one else could be. She not only supported my journey but educated and guided me. She made me feel safe and heard while taking away all the insecurities and pressures labor and hospitals can bring. Both my husband and I are very grateful to her and the help we recieved before, during, & after delivery. If we ever plan on another baby I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Sierra again.

Hi there! I'm a birth doula and Hypnobabies instructor serving clients throughout Salt Lake and Utah counties. I caught the birth bug during my first pregnancy in 2009, and decided after my second birth in 2013 that I wanted to become a doula. I'm passionate about bodily autonomy, informed consent, prenatal education, evidence-based practices, and maternal mental health. I love supporting families during the most memorable times of their lives. I'm told I have a calming presence, and I'm passionate about supporting partners as they support you.

Recent review

Molly was my Hypnobabies instructor and my doula as well for my first birth. At the beginning of the process, we were acquaintances, and now I consider her one of my closest, and most trusted friends. Her hypnotherapy sessions helped me completely get rid of fear before birth, and helped me feel so much peace. My actual delivery day was incredible, and she did everything in her power to advocate for me and do whatever possible to make me most comfortable. I am so grateful for her help, and wouldn’t want to go through the process without her next time. Molly is seriously amazing, knowledgeable, and the best doula ever!!!

Hi! I'm Kim, your local midwife. The story of how I came to be here in Utah, serving women through pregnancy and birth is an interesting one. My education consists of a Bachelor of Art in Sociology with an Emphasis in Ethnic Studies, a Juris Doctorate with Emphasis in Criminal Law, and Certification as a Professional Midwife. My calling has always been to serve people in a humble, practical and pragmatic way. Creating positive change in people' s lives in the most efficient way possible. Over the years, this guiding principle has taken me on many adventures through different areas of life, different communities, and around the world. I grew up the child of two Air Force parents (Lawrence Hardeman and Cynthia Wright), traveling back and forth to Japan over my early years and around the US as I got older. During my settled years, I lived in Kansas City, Missouri. Unbeknownst to me, a distant ancestor of mine was one of the first to settle that area before Missouri was even a state. Peter Hardeman Burnett, a lawyer who defended Joseph Smith while detained in the Liberty Jail, adventurer who led 1000 pioneers on the Oregon Trail, and eventually became the first governor of California. During my college years I became a mother for the first time and with the help of a fantastic nurse midwife I endured 19 hours of pitocin induction with no epidural. I was so young and naive at the time I didn't understand the true blessing she was in my life. That revelation hit me during my second birth, where a midwife wasn't available. That was the hardest pregnancy, the most life threatening delivery, and the most depressing postpartum experience of them all. I waited five years before deciding I was ready for another and this time I studied, I scoured my city for resources, and I found another amazing midwife. That birth was magical. I created an experience with the support of my midwife, my husband, my mother and mother in law that healed every traumatized part of my soul. My fourth birth was even better because I had a home birth midwife that time who helped me feel empowered and confident beyond what I had achieved in my prior pregnancies. This is when I decided that a law degree is nice, but midwifery lights my FIRE! I started my training soon after my son's birth and haven't looked back since. Beginning a career as a midwife during the height of a worldwide pandemic, when hospitals prioritized control over freedom in birth, was truly a gauntlet. Women sought out of hospital birth for the first time, fueled by fear and anxiety. I learned to meet women where they were at and move them into a space of peace, calm, and confidence in their bodies and their babies. In that space, my midwife mind was developed. I served hundreds of families in Missouri and Kansas, some families as far as 3 hours from my home because no midwife would travel to them. I gladly chose to drive hours round trip for home visits and births, because on those long drives through the Kansas plains, I was able to lay down prayers with every mile. Asking God, "Where do you want me? How do I get there? When should I go?" Like my ancestor, Peter Hardeman Burnett, the answer was "Go West, to the mountains". Full of faith, I began winding down my Kansas City practice and made plans to move to Utah. I married my spouse under the aspen trees at the foot of the mountains in Rotary Glen Park in Park City, UT and began building a life here. Now, I find myself rooted in the same valley as you all, with open arms and an open heart, ready to serve the families that are sent my way.

Kim has provided nothing but the best care throughout my entire pregnancy and after for my little boy and I! I have felt honored and valued- nothing less! She is markedly professional, yet empathic and open with personal anecdotes when asked. While passionately supportive of your goals and values, she openly explains the full spectrum of each topic to empower your best decisions- ultimately respectful and supportive of your final decision. I love how Kim is so knowledgable about natural ways to address comfort/concerns and willing to try these before moving onto medical interventions. I was continually impressed by her ability to recommend several natural remedies to try when I mentioned anything under the sun! Not only that, but why they work and their benefits/risks. Her philosophy and passion about midwifery is evident. Im so grateful for her role in my natural childbirth and hope to have her again for a homebirth with our next child! Thank you ♡

🌸 About Me: Hi, my name is Esther, and I am a certified postpartum doula and nursing student based in Utah. Supporting women through motherhood is not just my work it is my passion and purpose. As the oldest of nine children, caring for others has always been a natural part of who I am. From a young age, I learned patience, responsibility, and the deep importance of nurturing. Today, I bring that same heart into my work with mothers and families. I am fully certified, insured, and CPR/BLS trained. As a nursing student and future midwife, I bring both professional medical understanding and emotional care into every home I serve. My goal is to ensure that every mother feels safe, supported, respected, and never alone during her postpartum journey. Women’s health is my lifelong calling. I am honored to walk beside mothers during one of the most powerful and vulnerable seasons of their lives.

Esther is friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. She’s very helpful and eager to to please. Just let her know how she can help and she’s there. I had my baby in the thick of school so that proved a little tricky schedule-wise at times, but when I had her she gave in her all. I appreciated her help with my other littles. God knows they needed extra love and attention after the baby came.

I’m a doula dedicated to compassionately guiding women and their birth companions through an incredible journey of strength, resilience, and empowerment. We are created to birth our babies into this world. That process is more than just an event- it is a transformation. As a doula, I carry this philosophy at the core of my approach. I believe in the innate strength within every woman, and my role is to guide and empower you, alongside the rest of your birth team, on your unique journey. Furthermore, I firmly believe that as we face our fears and discomfort, we have the potential to emerge stronger and more resilient. Birth, with all its uncertainties and challenges, provides a crucial opportunity for personal growth. This strength carries with us through the rest of our lives and empowers us in our role as a mother. I recognize the invaluable role that partners, grandmothers, sisters and others play. My doula support extends beyond the individual, creating a collaborative and inclusive environment that fosters a sense of unity and support. I hold a deep belief in the sacred nature of birth. My faith in God informs every aspect of my doula practice, guiding me to approach birth with reverence and gratitude. I would be honored to guide you on your journey.

She was very kind and patient. Answered all of my questions thoroughly and was patient even when I'd ask the same question over and over again. She worked with me and my fears and made the experience not as scary as I was thinking it would be. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting an at home birth. I'm gonna use her again if I get pregnant again. She even was able to draw my blood sample with minimal pain, unlike the doctor's office that drew my first samples. She made me feel safe and in control of how I wanted to have my birthing experience be. It was thoroughly wonderful and an enjoyable experience.

Hi, I’m Kayla — birth mentor, labor doula, and host of A Mother Is Born. I believe birth should feel like a big deal — in the best possible way. My own experience giving birth was transformational. I felt honored, trusted, and supported throughout. It was beautiful and powerful… and also incredibly rare. Most women I know didn’t feel that way about their births — and that’s what pulled me into this work. I support women who want something more from their birth experience — whether they’re preparing for the first time or recovering from a difficult past one. I offer in-person doula support in Utah County, and virtual birth mentorship to families anywhere. I’m especially drawn to: First-time parents who see birth as a major life event — and want to plan it with care, not just "go with the flow" Experienced parents who had a birth that didn’t sit right — and want a different story this time My approach is rooted in values: self-trust, autonomy, and honoring the body’s wisdom. I don’t believe in rigid checklists or cookie-cutter plans. I focus on helping you figure out what matters most to you, and then build a plan that supports that. I’ll teach you to advocate for yourself — and I’ll step in to back you up when needed. You won’t be alone. My favorite part of this work? The women. The honest conversations. The deep relationships. Watching someone grow into motherhood with intention and power is the biggest honor of my life. A few personal things: I’m a very type-B personality. The bad? My car is always a mess. The good? I am flexible, intuitive, and empathetic. In my personal time, I love learning the names of all the local plants. It's probably an even nerdier hobby than learning about birth! I have a deep weakness for dark chocolate, and never go to bed without second dinner. I truly believe that birth can be one of the most powerful and positive experiences of your life — when you have the right support. I'm excited to meet you!

Kaila was my doula for my second baby. I had a traumatic experience with my first baby, so I really wanted someone to help me cope with my second. Kaila was exactly what I needed! She is knowledgeable, personable, and really listened to my needs. She respected all of my decisions and did everything she could to help me have the birth that I always desired. I would highly recommend Kaila to any woman looking for an incredible doula!
