I’m Desiree, a mom of five, an educator, and a certified birth and postpartum doula. I’ve had five unmedicated births (one of those births happened at home…on purpose). These personal experiences helped me find my way to birth support and have shaped the way I walk alongside families today. I know birth and early parenthood can feel both beautiful and overwhelming, and my goal is to help parents feel prepared, supported, and truly seen through it all. My philosophy is simple: Your Journey, Your Desired Way! Your choices matter! I provide evidence-based education, practical tools, and heartfelt support so you can feel confident, cared for, and truly seen.

Hello! My name is Katie :) As a birth and postpartum doula, I am passionate about honouring the birth and postpartum experience; by helping families feel supported, informed and heard throughout the process. Having experienced three beautiful births at home, I have a deep respect for the physical, emotional and immensely personal journey of bringing a baby into the world. My personal experience has lead me here - pursuing a career in birth work that is rooted in compassion, respect and empowerment for ALL families regardless of structure, identity or birth preferences. When I’m not working with families, you’ll usually find me at home in Grimsby, Ontario with my partner, our three kids, and two dogs - embracing the beautiful chaos of family life. I love practicing yoga, kitchen dance parties and you can usually spot me in the stands as that overly enthusiastic mom cheering way too loudly at my kids’ sports games.

I'm Tina - a birth and postpartum doula - and I'm so glad you're here! My desire is to be a guide, helper, encourager, and interpreter for you in your special season of having a baby. Whatever type of birth you choose, I am here to give you all the evidence based information you need in order to have the pregnancy, the birth, and the postpartum you dream of. Birth can be super unpredictable but the effort you put into your birth and the information and confidence you gain will be of huge help! You do not need to walk this path on your own. I serve the Niagara Region of Ontario - including St. Catharines, Niagara Falls, Fort Erie, Welland, Wainfleet, and Dunnville. One thing that makes me different as a doula is that I am a Christian and I believe that God wants to be fully present in every part of our life, including birth! Surrendering this crucial part of our life over to Him is utterly important. We are not called to live in fear but of power! I help you to turn your fear into faith, give you Scriptures that will inspire you, and pray over you. No matter what type of birth you choose, or what ends up happening, you can have a God-honoring birth. And I'm here to cheer you on!

Hi! I’m a registered nurse specializing in critical care and a mom of two young children, and supporting families—especially mothers—has always been at the heart of what I do. Becoming a mom myself deepened my understanding of how overwhelming, emotional, and transformative this season can be, and it’s what truly fuels my desire to help other parents feel supported, confident, and cared for. With my nursing background, I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and safety-focused approach, while my experience as a mom allows me to offer genuine empathy and real-life understanding. I believe every mother deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. My philosophy is centered on meeting families where they are, offering reassurance, encouragement, and practical help so parents can feel more confident and less alone during this chapter.

I started in this field as an infant nanny to my niece back in 2017. Since then I have worked in a variety of childcare settings. My time working at a daycare was spent in the infant room, caring for newborns and up. Most recently, I’ve been a nanny to two wonderful families who I’ve had the privilege of watching their babies grow from newborns to energetic toddlers. I’m extremely passionate about helping families care for their infants and young children.

Id like to show women and families how empowering pregnancy and birth can be. Birth is a sacred and deep journey and my role is to walk beside you. I can offer you things like reassurance, physical comfort, and can provide you with evidence based guidance with your needs/wants. The main goal is for you and your family to feel safe, respected, and fully supported as you welcome your baby.

Hey all!! My name is Hallie and I am a newly certified labor and postpartum doula in the Buffalo, NY area. After the birth of my first son in July 2021, I knew it was my calling to help others achieve a birth experience they could be proud of. Reach out to me and let’s chat! I’d love to add another member to the Blooming Baby family ❤️

I am a certified birth doula, with special training in VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) and am also a Certified Lactation Counselor. I became a doula after my own empowering births and felt a calling to support families throughout birth and breastfeeding. I believe that birth is a unique, individual experience that deserves presence, encouragement, and support. Being a guide as one navigates the unknowns and weighs the decisions of birth is one of my greatest honors, next to being a mother. I believe that doulas can change the world by inspiring calm and confidence in birthing parents. I love the power of birth to connect couples and delights in helping them work as a team. Birth is a deeply transformative experience and one that I will guide you through with compassion and enduring support. I love spending time with my two toddlers and husband, going on nature walks, reading or journaling, and digging in my flower and vegetable gardens.

I am a DONA-trained Postpartum Doula and owner of Sage Support. No experience of my life has been as foundation-rattling as having my first child. My husband and I lived far from family and friends, and - like most - our family had other day-to-day responsibilities that kept them busy. Add in a (short) NICU stay, early feeding challenges, and insufficient paternity leave, and I was a mess. In those early days, in between visits from our mothers and sisters, I constructed a tiny village of “nice ladies” - lactation consultants, speech language pathologists, a weekly breastfeeding group, and a psychologist - to put myself back together and stabilize my daughter’s eating. I believe that our country needs significant policy changes that better support families, birthing people, and infants. In the meantime, postpartum doulas can help fill that gap. I went through DONA postpartum doula and breastfeeding training in January 2021, and I’m working on the final requirements to be fully certified. I will work hard to support your family and refer you to other evidence-based professionals.
