¡Hola! My name is Karen and I am a fierce advocate for reproductive justice. I love Sistersong’s definition of reproductive justice, which is, “the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children, not have children, and parent the children we have in safe and sustainable communities.” Therefore, I seek to support people within their journey, honoring their bodily autonomy and rights, which is why it is important for me to support birthing people, those seeking to release their pregnancy, and parents wanting to create safe and nurturing environments. I am a Spanish-speaking birth and postpartum doula who is passionate about making sure the birthing person is feeling empowered, liberated, and heard throughout their pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum. I am a medicaid-approved birth doula. I am also an abortion companion and will provide you with unbiased, nonjudgemental support and unconditional love. I believe wholeheartedly that your body knows how and what to do, and that you know YOUR body the best, so I will support you in whatever YOU feel is best for you. I know you have a voice and I value that, so I will advocate WITH you. Birth and the transition to parenthood, as well as the postpartum after birth or an abortion (spontaneous or medical) is a mental, physical, and spiritual shift, so I approach my work with clients in a holistic and trauma-informed way. To be a part of your journey is an honor and a privilege and I will treat it as such when you let me hear your story, enter your home, meet your family, and be a part of a transformational moment in your life.

My faith is the foundation for my life, and most of my clients find and choose me because I stand strong in Biblical truth and moral values.

Hello! I’m Liana (she/her) and I’m thrilled that you’ve found me! Beyond my ever-increasing passion for all things birth-related, I am a big fan of reading rom-coms, dragging my husband out on adventures with our three kids, extroverting (is that a word?) with friends, and generally enjoying this hectic and lovely life. Now on to why you’re here! After the birth of our first child, I realized there were some big gaps in the childbirth classes that we took. Before we became pregnant again, I was researching what we had missed and awoke a passion for childbirth and maternal care that has only deepened over the years. After our three kids were born, I became a Childbirth Educator in 2017 and a Birth Doula in 2018. I also delivered two babies as a gestational surrogate in 2019 and 2021. I love supporting families of all kinds, including (but not limited to) biological families, adoptive parents, LGBTQ+ parents, single parents, and surrogates and IPs. I look forward to getting to know you!

Hi, I’m Beth the Birthworker. I’m a mama, Doula, Entrepreneur and a major advocate for AUTHENTICITY! I am a highly intuitive, empathetic and compassionate Guide whose passion is to assist birthing people. I am an experienced Birth and Postpartum Doula and a Photographer, Counselor and Coach. But even more importantly, I am also a Sacred Mother and a gifted healer. I love helping people become the most aligned version of themselves by being a Safe Space. In my free time, you will find me spending quality time with my husband and children playing silly games, going on adventures and having deep philosophical conversations about life. I love to solve problems and use my creativity to make people's lives better. For 15 years, I had a career in the non-profit space working with adults with special needs. I have also been a professional nanny, caregiver for the elderly, hospice provider, volunteer with homeless shelters and a preschool teacher. My passion for being of service to others shines through in everything I do. As a Doula, my intention is to tailor my support to your individual needs so that you can show up as the best version of yourself. If you need someone to be very hands on, I will do that! If you prefer someone to quietly hold space and offer words of encouragement, I’ve got you. If you need someone to guide your birth partner so they can better support you, I will help them. Or, if you need someone to task your mother-in-law with missions so you can have a break, I’m on it😉. This is YOUR birth and you are in control. However, if the moment gets scary or frustrating or you feel like you’ve reached your limit, I will step in to offer guidance and support. Communication is key to any successful relationship. If we choose to work together, I will insist on spending time together to come up with your “DREAM” birth plan, as well as contingencies that work for everyone involved. That way, when we show up for your baby’s arrival, we will all be on the same page! I encourage you to interview multiple Doulas and use your intuition to guide you in your choice! No hard feelings and also, I hope we are a great fit! 💜Beth the Birthworker
