About me

Hello! My name is Mary Miranda, and I am a certified birth and postpartum doula located in Fort Smith, Arkansas. I have 22 years of personal experience with birth, postpartum, and baby care. As a mother of seven children, with 6 of those births taking place at home, I deeply understand the transformative and unique experience of childbirth. My personal journey has given me invaluable insights into the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. It is my passion to support women and their families, share knowledge, and to help create a meaningful, peaceful, and empowering environment for your own birth experience. Whether you're planning a homebirth or seeking support in a hospital setting, I bring a personal touch to every birth I attend. Each birth is a unique experience, and it is my privilege to be by your side, guiding you with the care and attention that I would want for my own family. I look forward to being part of your journey and supporting you as you welcome your little one into the world.
