Amissa was my doula for my first and only birth and she was INCREDIBLE. She's super knowledgable, kind, and considerate of what you need throughout your pregnancy and birthing journey. I felt very nervous about not knowing anything and once I connected with Amissa I felt way more educated and prepared for my expectations and knowing my rights in the delivery room. She advocated for me and empowered me to advocate for myself. I would absolutely recommend Amissa to anyone seeking a doula's support for their birth.

Hi, I’m Amanda Carlton! I live in Mesa, Arizona with my husband and our two young boys. I’ve always had two passions: child development and aviation. I earned my degree in Child Development from California State University, Chico, and later pursued a career as a commercial pilot. While they may seem like total opposites, both fields bring out the curious, research-driven side of me—I love understanding how things work, whether it’s the science of aerodynamics or the developmental journey of a child. When I became a mom, I quickly realized how valuable my child development background was—but even with that, I struggled with my first son’s sleep. Frequent night wakings, short naps, and total exhaustion left me feeling lost. We eventually worked with a pediatric sleep consultant, and by night three, my son was sleeping through the night. The transformation was life-changing—we went from surviving to truly thriving. That experience inspired me to become a certified pediatric sleep consultant myself. Now, I have the privilege of helping other families find the peace and rest they deserve. My approach is fully customized—because I know there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to sleep. I tailor each plan to the individual child and family, and I don’t just hand you a plan and disappear. I’m with you every step of the way to guide, support, and adjust as needed—until sleep is no longer a stressor in your home. Let’s get your family from surviving to thriving.

Amanda assisted us in sleep training my now 8 month old baby boy. She was there the whole time answering all my frantic text messages and giving me support when I needed it most. I hit my rock bottom, worn out and sleep deprived navigating these waters but, what made it worth it, was knowing Amanda was by my side. I was worried that we weren't going to get there as he was very persistent and the nursing habit was difficult to break. However, Amanda walked me through it and assured me that it was okay and his protesting will end....and it did. Thank you for the support. I am really glad I reached out as I am now managing my two under two with dad out of town. I couldn't do it without my sleep. Thank you for reminding me what 8 hours of solid sleep can do for you! Highly recommend!

Wonderful postpartum doula! Helped with light housekeeping and meal prep and snacks for my older kids. Alexus made sure I stayed fed and hydrated. Watched the baby so I could rest and shower. I think every woman deserves an amazing postpartum doula like Alexus. She provided a great listening ear to alleviate any worries and concerns I had. 10/10 recommend Alexus
