About me

Hello there! My name is Jayde and I am a wife, mother of 2, and Certified Birth Doula for the central Florida area. Assisting others in feeling safe, supported, and empowered throughout their birth is my passion and I would love nothing more than to do so for you! I provide emotional, informational, and physical support for every birth type whether that be in a hospital, birth center, or homebirth setting. I believe it's important each person find the right fit for them, so I provide a free meet & greet interview to all potential clients. Every mom deserves a doula, and every baby deserves a peaceful and happy welcome on their birthday.

Jayde is a true gem in the world of birth support, and her presence can truly make a difference in your birthing experience. I recently welcomed my baby girl unmedicated, in the quiet environment of my own home. I couldn’t have done this without the unwavering support of Jayde as my doula. Jayde is nothing short of phenomenal. Since the first day we met, she showed up prepared to listen, understand my needs, talk over my fears and doubts, and offered many resources to prepare for D-day and postpartum. During the birthing process, Jayde knew how to guide me to follow intuitively what my body needed, offered various options to ease and soothe the labor intensity. Her repeated affirmations and physical strength supported me in pushing through many physical and mental edges of labor. She also skillfully created a space that allowed my partner to actively participate while providing the physical cues and mental strength needed to navigate the process. Jayde is selfless; she is fully present and focused on supporting her clients. This, and more, makes her an outstanding, reliable doula to add to your team.

With my last two children Jayde has been a lifesaver! So incredibly supportive and kind. She has so much knowledge and passion for a safe, natural, personal birthing experience. Her pre and post care was encouraging, comforting, and genuine. It’s amazing what a true peace she brings to a stressful situation. Thank you so much for being such an angel, Jayde !
