Find a Childbirth Educator Near Me in Thornton, CO

Greetings! I'm Karisa Totah, a certified birth doula and postpartum doula (through DONA International). I'm also Spinning Babies trained and a Body Ready Method certified Pro. I live in Littleton, CO with my husband, near my best friend and her babies. I serve the Denver Metro area, usually within 25 miles of my home. Birth, babies, and parenting have been a life-long fascination of mine, even since I was little. I nerd-out over the smallest baby and birth details and absolutely adore helping and learning from each new family I meet. I firmly believe that both the research and my experience support the idea that doulas reduce anxiety. The birthing year can be such a stressful one if you don't know what to expect, don't have the support you need, and don't have people watching out for you. I love filling in the gap to educate and empower, support and love, encourage and help you find joy in this journey. My motto is: "Replacing anxiety with courage, fear with knowledge, discouragement with hope, and overwhelm with joy."

Welcome to Trinity Doula n Massage I am the wife of a US Navy Veteran & Mama of 2 and love all things birth. I began my passion and career as a Birth Doula and Pre-Postnatal Massage Therapist at 25. I quickly recognized that in my heart, I am here to empower and bring comfort to individuals and families in their Labor space. My goal is to bring knowledge and guidance during your beautiful pre and postnatal journey. I am honored and privileged to bring emotional support and encouragement to you and your precious family. I'm here to advocate for you and support you during your Pregnancy and Delivery.

First, I am a Christian; a follower of Jesus, and I believe in the miracle of life and the privilege of pregnancy, birth and motherhood as a natural and normal process. I am a certified birth doula through DONA International. My experience has been on the labor & delivery floor at Denver Health as a volunteer and staff doula, and I have supported 6 private births in the past year. I am looking to gain more experience as a private doula, specifically in the birth center and home birth settings, that is why I do not list hospital births as an option. In my private business I'm interested in working with women and their families that want to put in the work required to have an empowering and positive natural childbirth experience when there is no option for an epidural. By that I mean those who have taken classes such as Lamaze, Birthing from Within, Hypnobirthing and Hypnobabies or watched videos on natural childbirth from sources like Bridget Teyler or Mama Natural on YouTube. In addition , those that are committed to the regular exercises, routines and preparations that I believe are necessary for a birthing experience that won't leave you feeling traumatized. That's not to say a woman cannot decide on a natural experience, do no prep work and still have a positive birth without an epidural, because I've seen it happen, but it's rare. If you want to put in the work for a pregnancy and birth that will change how you understand yourself, your health inside and out, and give you a life long dose of empowering confidence that only the miracle of life can provide than please consider me as your doula to support that journey. I am happy to support families with multiple prenatal visits, birth, and a postpartum visit at the time of your choosing. Thank you for your consideration and congratulations!

Hi there! My name is Kayli Worthley. I am a Certified Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Breastfeeding Counselor. I believe birth is a sacred event that goes best when mothers feel safe, seen, and heard. I see my doula role as one of an educator, nurturer, and advocate. My goal is that you feel informed and confident to make your own decisions throughout the labor and birth process. After having a beautiful homebirth with my daughter, I have first hand experience of the joys and trials of childbirth. I believe that children are a blessing from God and that childbirth can bring you closer to the Lord. In my free time you'll find me singing along to worship music while making sourdough. I love going on walks with my husband and practicing hospitality.

I’m a DONA-certified birth doula with over 30 years of experience in family advocacy and early childhood development. God led me to this work through the transformative births of my own four children, each one shaping my heart and deepening my passion for supporting others through this sacred journey. In 2020, I followed that calling and founded Mountains of Love Doulas to provide families with evidence-based guidance, emotional encouragement, and hands-on support. Now rooted in Berthoud, Colorado with my husband and our four kids, we soak up every moment we can outdoors—when I’m not holding space for another beautiful birth.

I’m a Loveland, Colorado-based mother of two wonderful boys, ages 4 and 1. My journey into motherhood began with a medically managed hospital birth, where support during labor and postpartum was limited. Navigating postpartum anxiety, depression, and nursing challenges as a single mother was a deeply formative experience. My second birth—a natural water birth at a birth center attended by midwives and a doula—was profoundly different. It was through that empowering and supported experience that I came to understand the incredible strength of the birthing body, and the vital role that informed, compassionate care plays in a woman’s journey. As I moved through this transformative chapter, I found myself drawn to learning more about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. I became passionate about the power of nurturing, evidence-based support during this sacred transition. That path ultimately led me to doula work, where I feel deeply called to walk alongside women as they move through one of the most powerful experiences of their lives.

My name is Rowan Hawkins (she/they), and I bring nearly three decades of living, working, and learning into my work as a threshold doula, specializing with families with miscarriages and stillborn births. I am also a traveling CO notary public, traveling folk harp player, certified child passenger safety technician (CPST-PVS), and mother of my one-and-only rainbow baby (who was born via medically necessary C-section). My career path has been eclectic—spanning universities, hospitality, medical offices, and finance—but in every role, I found myself drawn to supporting others, keeping things organized, and creating calm in the middle of complexity. I hold a bachelor’s degree in science with a minor in anthropology, and I’ve always been fascinated by the ways we care for one another. As a doula, I support: ~ Non-religious/secular practices first ~ Skin-to-skin as much as humanly possible ~ Breast is preferred, but fed is best ~ Cesarean births are natural births ~ Abortion is healthcare ~ Vaccines save lives ~ Advocacy, knowledge, and empowerment for all ~ Death is natural and healthy to discuss I also encourage open-book business practices! Have a question about my pricing? Please ask!

Hey there, I’m Carly, the heart and hands behind Sol Shine Doula Services. My path to birth work started with my own first birth experience—long, unsupported, and ending in a home birth transfer. I didn’t even know doulas existed then, but I know now how transformative the right support can be. Named after my first child’s middle name, Sol Shine was born from a deep desire to provide families with the warmth, knowledge, and care I once wished for. Now, I dedicate my work to ensuring no birthing person feels alone in their journey.

Hi my name is Maryann Linley. I love God, children, animals, and the outdoors. I have heart to serve others. I have had a servant heart ever since I could remember, around age 9 is when I really took care of a baby by myself, for the first time. I have been a professional nanny since I was 22 years old but I have been taking care of children for about 28 years now. Which, is what has led me to becoming a certified doula through DONA International, to help serve mom's and dad's.

Hello! My name is Ali and I am available for doula services within the Denver area and southern suburbia. My mission is to provide compassionate and personalized support to expectant mothers and their families. With a deep understanding of the birthing process, I am here to offer guidance, comfort, and advocacy every step of the way. ​ I believe in the power of informed choices and continuous support with dedication to creating a nurturing environment where you feel empowered, respected, and cared for. My services are tailored to meet your unique needs and preferences, ensuring that you have a positive and memorable birth experience.

have been a doula since 2007 and have had the opportunity to attend a variety of births including medicated, non-medicated, multiples, VBAC’s and home-births. I use many tools to help a woman cope in labor including massage, pressure points, movement, aromatherapy and I am trained in using a TENS unit and have units that I let my clients use for their labor. I love teaching some of the tricks I have learned over the years to the dad and helping him feel a part of the birth. My goal is for the mom and dad to feel like “WE did it” as they hold their sweet baby. I feel passionate about a woman’s power and ability to have the kind of birth experience she longs for. Birth is a beautiful, powerful and natural event. I believe that during labor, a mom needs to surround herself with people that believe in her ability and trust her body and I am always honored when chosen to be a part of that team. I also have a special place in my heart for helping families incorporate their Christian faith in their pregnancy and birth. A woman remembers her birth forever…she may not remember the specific details, but she will remember how she felt. She will remember if she was loved and supported, or if she felt fearful and intimidated. I have no magic powers, but I hope my presence helps those memories be as positive as they can be.

I thrive on empowering clients and advocating for their voice in their birthing journeys. Through my ever evolving doula career, I have supported families through grief, loss, and abuse. I serve families at home, in hospitals, and at birth centers. I strive for all families to have a positive birthing experience full of compassion, nurturing, and love. I offer birth services, photography, placenta encapsulation, and postpartum support.   My passion for birth and support were inspired from my own passage through birth and motherhood. Through my own birth experience, I was drawn to support others the way my doula cared for me. My passion for a positive birth journey fuels my model of care. In my free time, I enjoy spending time hiking and camping with my husband, two daughters, and dog. I loves yoga, music, and travelling.
