Carly Ann Marshall-Braun

Accepts insurance

I am Chicago based childbirth educator, doula, and soon-to-be midwife. I am passionate about supporting undisturbed physiologic birth. I believe in healthy-at-any-size. I've been teaching Evidence Based Birth for two years and I recently finished Midwifery school (to be licensed in 2026). I adore working with queer families, trans folks, and families who have used fertility support. My expertise spans home birth, birth centers, and hospital birth. Most people who take my class are at a birth center or hospital. Many want an empowered low-intervention birth, but most also want information about the benefits of epidurals, and when is the best time to get one. I am passionate about you having the birth YOU want, and having agency over your body and birth, no matter what this journey brings. I provide evidence based information, grounded energy, and listening ear.

Carly Ann was our doula for the birth of my second child and she was so incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and her presence was deeply grounding for me. Having her guidance in the hospital room was incredible for my husband and me both, and it just felt like we didn't need to worry about anything with Carly Ann there to remind us of anything or prompt us in important moments! She also came by to support after the baby was born and I appreciated feeling like I could just relax and be cared for by her. Super grateful that we got to work with her and I highly recommend her to anyone interested in working with her!! x

Kayla Lashay Popular: among the most-viewed doulas in Indiana, last 60 days

Responds within a few hours Accepts insurance

Hello, my name is Kayla, and I am a full-time doula proudly serving families throughout Indiana and surrounding communities. Born and raised in Indianapolis, I am also a mother of four beautiful children who have inspired my passion for birth work and maternal support. My journey to becoming a doula was deeply personal. After experiencing trauma during three of my own births, I realized how important compassionate, informed, and empowering support truly is during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I chose to turn my pain into purpose by helping other mothers feel seen, heard, educated, and supported throughout their birthing journey. As a doula, my mission is to provide a safe, nurturing, and empowering experience for every family I serve. I believe every mother deserves respectful care, emotional support, and an advocate by her side. Through my work, I strive to transform trauma into healing and blessings by giving back to the community and supporting families during one of life’s most meaningful moments.

Having kayla as my doula has truly been one of the best decisions during my pregnancy journey. She has been incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, supportive, and caring every single step of the way. During such an emotional and important time in my life, she has made me feel genuinely cared for, heard, and at peace. One thing I appreciate most is how she never tries to overshadow my wants or opinions. She always makes my choices, comfort, and birth preferences the priority while still guiding and educating me with so much patience and compassion. That balance is so important when choosing a doula, and she does it beautifully. Kayla presence alone brings reassurance, comfort, and confidence, and I truly cannot imagine going through this journey without her support. I would recommend her to any expecting mother looking for someone who will advocate for them, support them, and truly care from the heart. 💕

Hiring Madison as our home birth doula was the best decision we made. From the very beginning, she brought such a calming, grounded presence that made me feel safe, seen, and truly held. During my labor, Madison was integral—she anticipated my needs before I could voice them, offered comfort through touch, movement, and breath, and reminded me of my own strength in the moments I doubted it. She supported my partner just as beautifully, giving him guidance so he could feel confident and present with me throughout the birth. Madison’s deep trust in the birthing process was contagious and helped me stay connected to my body and baby. I truly cannot imagine my birth without her. She was not just a doula—she was an anchor, a guide, and a witness to one of the most powerful experiences of my life. I will be forever grateful.

Alyssa Going

Nice to meet you! I’m Alyssa. I’m a boy mama x 2. After having two very different birth experiences, I’m passionate about supporting and educating parents leading up to birth and beyond. With a long induction + c-section birth and also a non-medicated VBAC under my belt, I feel well equipped to support all moms. I love to integrate a holistic approach to birth work, but I also appreciate modern medicine when truly needed. Every mom has their wants and needs when envisioning the birth that they desire, and I love helping them get from where they are to where they want to be. I value breastfeeding and postpartum wellness as well and love to help moms troubleshoot or problem solve when needed. The saying “it takes a village” holds a special place with me as I often feel pulled to be that village for fellow mamas. I strive to make other moms feel appreciated, supported, informed, and confident in their God-given abilities! I live in the Indianapolis area with my husband + our two boys. I love mom hangs, adventuring with my fam, being my kids biggest cheerleader + checking out new local food and coffee spots with my husband.

Alyssa was my doula for the birth of my 3rd child. I know that because of her, I had a beautiful, natural, physiological birth. I did not have a doula for the births of my first 2 children but after having her be such a vital part of my birth team, I wish I had invested in a doula for them. The birth of my 1st child was long and difficult, and I can confidently say that if Alyssa had been there, it would have been completely different. She is kind, incredibly generous, loves the Lord, and has a calming presence that makes her a perfect doula for someone like me. I have a lot of anxiety and do better when I have someone who is both gentle and firm. Alyssa became a part of my pregnancy journey around 18 weeks along. I was able to talk about my previous births, my indecision about where to give birth, and the difficulties I had experienced with secondary infertility. I had an initial consultation and 2 prenatal appointments with her in person where she was so attentive and wonderful about helping my husband and me to think through what I wanted my birthing time to look like. She was also available by phone and text, and I appreciated so much how often she checked in with me (and reminded me that I couldn't over communicate with her). A very big reason I decided to pursue a birthing center birth where I knew I wouldn't be able to have an epidural (I'm definitely not great with pain and had epidurals with my first 2) was because of her encouragement and also her suggestion to pursue using Hypnobabies. I was skeptical that Hypnobabies would work for me, but I'm so thankful I worked through and completed the course. Not only was the hypnosis vital to my 3rd's amazing birth, but the Hypnobabies materials reinforced what I already knew, as well as taught me new things that gave me confidence I was definitely lacking in previous births. Alyssa is such a wealth of information. I felt very safe going to her with my questions, concerns, and even my frustrations. She was fabulous at reminding me of God's sovereignty, His perfect timing, and that she was praying for me. During my actual birthing time, Alyssa was a strong, calming presence that involved herself when she needed to and also let me work through the different stages of labor. I was so thankful for her constant reminder to relax my face (the idea being that a relaxed face is a relaxed uterus), and how she kept me on target from one stage to the next. She helped me try different positions (one even included a nap) and got me setup to be able to enter the birthing tub just when I needed it most. I had a water birth, something I had always wanted to have! She kept me on course with my Hypnobabies tracks to keep my focus where it needed to be. I'm so thankful for everything Alyssa did for me during pregnancy, my birthing time, and also after birth and in the weeks following birth. She is a fantastic doula and an amazing person. I highly recommend her and am so happy to do so.

We worked with Kira to deliver our second baby and it was a fantastic experience from the start! She was easy to schedule a call with and after chatting for 10-15 minutes, I knew she'd be a great fit. Scheduling and communication made it easy to plan and she quickly became someone we could trust! We most appreciated her ability to listen well, take what we say/want, and help us go in that direction. We always felt supported in our decisions and the birth experience we desired! Kira clearly loves what she does and you will be in good hands if you are able to work with her.

"Sethia was very personable and welcoming. She was present and helped us make all the major decisions." ​ Sylania ​

— Sylania W., review of Sethia Mitchell

October 2026

Jordan was my doula for the birth of my second and third babies, and I just wish she had been there for my first birth, too! My labor with my second child was incredibly intense and painful, and I remember the way the atmosphere changed the moment that Jordan entered the room. She holds herself with an assured confidence and exudes warmth, empathy, and strength under pressure. She is deeply empathetic, is in tune with a mother’s needs during labor, and is not afraid to step in an be a firm advocate when needed. She is THE ONE you want on your birthing team. After having her for the birth of our second baby, my husband said we will never have a baby without her present with us, and I feel the same! From labor prep, birth, and even postpartum support, if you are looking for the kindest soul who is still a force to be reconned with as an advocate, Rooted Passage will absolutely exceed your expectations during the most sacred experience of your life.

— Rachel B., review of Jordan Sanders

October 2026

have known Jordan for nearly 20 years, and for as long as I've known her, she has possessed a natural, innate gift for taking care of others. Her warmth, intuitive compassion, and caretaking spirit are simply in her DNA. When she made the decision to begin her doula practice, it felt like the most natural extension of who she has always been. As a mother of two who had two C-sections, my birth experience looked a bit different, but Jordan's support before and after my births was invaluable. A doula's role goes so far beyond the delivery room, and Jordan embodies every single quality you could hope for during the perinatal journey. Before birth, she is a listening ear, an encouraging guide, and a calm, grounding force. The transition into motherhood, especially the physical and emotional recovery following a C-section, requires so much gentle care, and Jordan was there with steady, non-judgmental support every step of the way. She listens deeply, anticipates needs, and brings a reassuring, peaceful presence to the early postpartum days. Having navigated motherhood alongside her, I can say with complete confidence that any family would be so lucky to have Jordan in their corner. She is a true gift to expectant mothers!
