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 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.

Hi All! I am Cheryl Small, a Birth & Postpartum Doula and Childbirth Educator serving families in northern Colorado. Three decades ago I had my first baby via cesarean and my next three babies were born naturally at home attended by midwives, which was a decision that changed the course of my life. I am passionate about all things natural health and believe the body has the ability to perform beyond what our minds can comprehend. This includes physiological birth. The body knows what to do. Does that mean every birth goes accordingly? Not always. But I have found the biggest obstacle is not the body, but the mind, so when prepared with education, tools, support and informed decision making, the chances of obtaining your desired birth are greater. I have supported over 60 births in the last 2.5 years at home, in birthing centers and hospitals and would love to walk alongside you through pregnancy, labor, delivery and ALL things postpartum. It's vital to not forget the fourth trimester which is when baby comes home and families may need the most support. In my free time, I am often seeking out a new hiking trail in the mountains.

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!

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.

Which, is what has led me to becoming a certified doula through DONA International, to help serve mom's and dad's.

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.

With a deep-rooted love for nurturing others and years of hands-on experience supporting families, I come to my work as a postpartum doula with warmth, compassion, and understanding. My own experience with postpartum challenges is what truly called me to this work and shaped my philosophy of care. I know firsthand how vulnerable, overwhelming, and lonely the early weeks after birth can feel. Because of this, I am deeply passionate about ensuring new parents feel seen, heard, and supported. I place special emphasis on emotional and mental well-being, believing—both personally and through research- that caring for a parent’s emotional health is just as essential as supporting physical recovery. My goal is to create a calm, grounded environment where families can rest, heal, and begin this new chapter with confidence. By nature, I am profoundly empathetic and nurturing, and many families share that my presence feels calming and steady. I believe some of the most meaningful support comes not from doing more, but from simply being present, offering patience, reassurance, and a safe space to land during a time of great change. I am a natural listener who values connection, trust, and honoring each family’s unique journey. My approach is rooted in gentle guidance, emotional attunement, and meeting parents exactly where they are, so they feel supported as they recover, reconnect, and grow into their new roles.

Hello! My name is Sara Sheehan. I graduated from the University of Texas in 2018 with a Bachelor in Fine Arts. As a queer person, I was still left feeling the need to do "more" for my community. In 2017 I found my passion for birth-work while looking for a sustainable occupation that would allow me to use my empathy skills to support my community. As it turns out, Doulas do just that! I'm a certified postpartum doula through Childbirth International, and a trained Full-Spectrum Doula through Doula Training International. Today my service as a Doula and my work as a painter have found a happy harmony in painting portraits of pregnancy, postpartum, and birth scenes.

Hi, I’m Melinda Mankins, founder of Parent Vortex, a birth and postpartum doula and Certified Lactation Educator. At Parent Vortex, I believe parenting is a balance of intuition and information. I help families navigate pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and the transition into parenthood through evidence-based education, practical support, and a mindset that focuses on confidence over fear. My approach is less “expert telling you what to do” and more trusted big sister walking beside you. I provide guidance, advocacy, and encouragement while helping parents tune out the noise, trust themselves, and make informed decisions that align with their values. My goal is for every family to feel supported, capable, and confident as they create the birth and postpartum experience they want.

Hi, I’m Kat! A doula, parent, and the heart behind Meadow’s Blossoming Bellies. For the past few years, I’ve been home with my daughter Meadow, watching her grow into this bright, fierce little human who’s taught me more about life and strength than I ever expected. She’s the reason I stepped into this work. I want her to see that it’s never too late to follow your passion—and that women can lead, heal, and build something powerful, even in the messiest seasons of life. My path to becoming a doula didn’t start with a dream. I found this work through my own experiences of birth, trauma, and healing. Meadow was born six weeks early and spent time in the NICU. Our journey included feeding challenges, a g-tube, postpartum depression, and a long road to bonding. It wasn’t easy, but it cracked me open. It made me realize how much support matters. Not just medically, but emotionally, spiritually, and human to human. That’s why I show up the way I do—as a birth, postpartum, and sibling doula who’s committed to creating a space where people feel safe, respected, and never alone. I’ve taken a range of trainings, mentorships, and classes, but most of what I bring to this work comes from lived experience and deep listening. I’m here to walk with you through the unknowns—offering grounding support, honest conversations, and care that fits you. My work is rooted in connection. I meet each family where they are, honoring your values, your needs, and your voice. Whether you’re navigating birth, adjusting to life with a newborn, or preparing your older child for a sibling, I’m here to support the whole experience with presence and compassion. This work is sacred to me. Every story matters. Every birth matters. And you deserve someone in your corner who sees you fully. If any of this resonates, I’d love to connect and see how I can support you.

Hi, I’m Danielle — The Soulful Doula. I am a heart-centered postpartum doula devoted to nurturing mothers through the sacred and tender first weeks after birth. I believe postpartum deserves just as much preparation and reverence as pregnancy and labor. My care blends practical newborn support with emotional grounding and holistic nourishment. Whether I’m providing overnight care, supporting feeding rhythms, preparing warming meals, or holding space as you process your birth story — my goal is simple: for you to feel rested, confident, and deeply supported. As a woman committed to improving maternal care — especially for women of color — I intentionally create a space where mothers feel seen, heard, and honored. The first 40 days are foundational. You deserve more than survival mode. You deserve softness, steadiness, and real support. It would be an honor to walk alongside you.
