I'm Kristin, the founder and doula for Little Lotus Birth Services. During my fourth pregnancy, I discovered my passion for childbirth and began my studies to become a doula. Having six children of my own, I have my own deeply seeded calling to provide support for birthing people of all walks of life.

Thank you for taking a minute to learn more about me! My name is Cari Walters. After an eight year battle with infertility, including a full year of testing, medications, and numerous hospital visits, I started my own mom Journey. My husband was deployed to Iraq for the birth of our first child. I would have been all alone if it wasn’t for the close-knit military wives (and occasionally my mom who lived out of state) that encircled me during this precious time. If it wasn’t for these women loving on me and advising me before, during, and after my birth, I know it would not have been such a positive experience. I knew at once that I wanted to support and love other moms in the same manner. I started out supporting new moms by being a part of a group called MOPS. My husband returned from war and shortly after we were blessed with a second baby without all the fertility trials. I continued working with moms through the MOPS organization as we moved across the country to Colorado. It was there that I met a beautiful friend and fellow MOPS mentor who introduced me to being a doula. In 2020, after taking the 200hr course with 75hrs of clinical work I began my journey as a full spectrum doula. I absolutely love birth and postpartum work but quickly learned that I really shined on the postpartum side of birth work. I concentrated on obtaining my Newborn Care Specialist certification and Sleep Guide Certification to improve and round out my skills as a postpartum doula.

The days and weeks after you welcome your baby into your family are so precious. My goal as your postpartum doula is to help make those moments as enjoyable as possible by empowering you to be the best parent(s) you can be. This can look like a lot of things -- feeding support, taking care of baby while you rest/eat/shower, light housework, and providing a discerning and empathetic ear. Generally, I provide mindful and loving support in family wellness, newborn feeding, and newborn care. As your postpartum doula, my number one priority will be encouraging the self-determination of your family. No one knows your baby more than you -- I am not there to tell you how to parent, but rather to provide practical, informational, and emotional support as you learn how to integrate your new baby into your family.
