Hi, I'm Elli, a certified birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator based in Lake Alfred, Florida. As your doula, my goal is to be a calm, steady presence throughout your journey into parenthood. I listen without judgment, provide clear and evidence-based information, and help you understand your options so you can make decisions that feel right for you and your family. Rather than promoting a particular approach to birth, I believe in supporting your choices and helping you feel informed, confident, and empowered every step of the way. Most importantly, I'll remind you to trust yourself, because no one knows your body, your baby, or your values better than you do. When I'm not supporting families, you'll usually find me spending time with my husband and our rescue dog, Cora, at the gym, baking sourdough bread, or dreaming up home improvement projects that my husband may or may not be excited about.

About Me I’m a birth and postpartum doula who believes every family deserves to feel seen, supported, and fully in control of their birthing experience. My approach is grounded in warmth, respect, and deep listening. I honor each parent’s unique vision—whether they want an unmedicated birth, an epidural or a planned cesarean. My goal is to create a space where you feel informed, empowered, and truly cared for during one of the most transformative times of your life. How I Support My Clients I offer 2–3 prenatal visits where we get to know each other, explore your birth preferences, practice comfort measures, and help you feel confident heading into labor. Throughout your birth, I’m there with steady, calm support—physically, emotionally, and informationally—always following your lead and advocating for what matters most to you. After your baby arrives, I provide a postpartum visit to help you settle in, debrief your birth if you’d like, and make sure you feel supported as you navigate early parenthood. My care adapts to your needs; whatever you want your birth and postpartum journey to look like, I’m there to walk beside you.

Hello! I'm a passionate biologist and mother of two, certified as a birth and postpartum doula since 2023. This year, I expanded my skills with certifications as a birth coach and maternal-child educator. Currently, I specialize as an Advanced Lactation Specialist and Safe Infant Feeding (CLAAS and IYCFS), committed to providing the best support during pregnancy and childbirth. At Doula at your cervix, I believe in gentle, personalized support for families during the conception and pregnancy process. I consider each pregnancy, labor, and birth to be a unique and miraculous experience where the emerging family is at the center. With a multidisciplinary approach, families can decide on their birth process and the environment where they feel safest to welcome their baby into the world. I'm here to accompany you with sensitivity and professionalism on this special journey.

Hello my name is Nia, I was introduced to the wonderful world of birth work during my sister’s pregnancy. As I was helping the practitioner, she hinted at the fact that she was a Doula. Adding, that I would do well in that field due to my caring nature. After more research, I began seeing the need for this service and fell in love with this industry. In 2019, I became a Dona trained Birth Doula, obtained certifications in: Newborn Care Specialist (NCS), Postpartum Doula(PPD), Basic Life Support(BLS), Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP), CPR, First Aid and trained in Benkung Belly Binding. I’ve had the pleasure of supporting parents with their newborns days and nights, provided care for families across states, families with multiples, parents with disabilities and supported births in both hospitals and birth centers. I’ve learned to be more understanding, open to new ideas and sensitive in different situations. It’s everything I thought it would be and more. I still find the time to be a supportive wife to my husband, homeschool my son, sing , brush up on my Spanish even play Pickle ball. I hope to support as many families as I can while enjoying this adventure, looking forward to being apart of your families’ journey!

Hey Parents ~ Labor, Delivery & Postpartum is such a crazy time of your life; it's multiple things happening all at once & you feel like at times you might be spiraling out of control. What should be a time of intense joy can sometimes lead to feeling out of control. As a birth & labor doula, I know that having extra support both emotional & physically can bring peace of mind. Also knowing that your doula comes with a plethora of resources and extra support services is invaluable. Let me discuss with you how a labor & postpartum doula can benefit you so that you can enjoy this season of life with a new little one.

I believe that childbirth is very intense, hard work, but is not designed to be traumatic, that children are a blessing from the Lord, and in most cases, the discomfort that comes with the WORK of childbirth can be managed well through mental, emotional, physical and spiritual conditioning to promote a smoother transition from the womb to the world.. It is my pleasure to teach and guide parents how to do just that.

Hello! My name is Catherine. I’m a mom to four boys and I’m a Christian birth doula and birth photographer. I became passionate about the process of physiological birth after I had my first homebirth with my third son…it was the first time I truly felt empowered during the birth process and now I want every mother to be able to experience that same feeling! (no matter where she births!) I believe as women we have everything we need to give birth already inside of us but that we don’t have to do this alone! I’m here to hold your hand, remind you of how strong you are and celebrate with you when the hard part is over! I would be honored to be a part of your journey. The way I serve and support women as a doula is best described as “birth bestie” or “birth sister.” I want to truly get to know you (because the better I know you the better I can support you!) and hear all your dreams and desires for birth. I offer a listening ear and a calming presence for anything you might need to work through or discuss throughout your pregnancy journey. If any of this sounds good to you, let’s go grab coffee and chat about all the birth-y things! ☕️ https://msha.ke/jubilantbirth www.instagram.com/jubilant.birth

Hi! I'm Gabriella, and I’m passionate about supporting women and families through their fertility, pregnancy, labor, and motherhood journeys. My path to becoming a doula began in 2014 after my own empowering birth experience with my first child. Inspired, I became a certified childbirth educator through the Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth and discovered my deep passion for women’s health and well-being. Over the years, I’ve been privileged to support families in various ways—whether teaching childbirth education, offering lactation consulting, or even serving as a virtual doula in moments of need. My own birth experiences have shaped my practice. From a beautiful birth center delivery to navigating an unexpected emergency C-section, and finally achieving my VBAC home birth, I bring a wealth of personal and professional insight to my work. These experiences have fueled my commitment to empowering families with knowledge, confidence, and holistic care. At the end of 2023, I made the decision to leave my corporate career to pursue my dream full-time. I am currently trained through DONA International, a globally respected organization, and offer compassionate, intuitive support focused on mental, physical, and nutritional health. My approach is holistic and tailored to each family’s unique needs, ensuring that partners feel confident and supported throughout the journey. I am so excited to walk alongside you and help you achieve the birth experience you desire. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or your fourth, I look forward to being part of your story!
