Hi There! I’m Felicia Arevalo – Doula, Welcoming a new life into the world is one of the most beautiful and transformative experiences a woman can go through—but it can also be one of the most vulnerable. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to walk alongside mothers during this tender time, offering not just support, but presence, care, and genuine love. As a mom of four myself, I know firsthand how deeply overwhelming those early postpartum days can be. Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, every journey is different—and every mother deserves to feel seen, heard, and nurtured. My heart is rooted in postpartum care. It’s where I feel called to serve the most—helping moms rest, recover, bond with their babies, and truly feel held as they find their new rhythm. I believe no one should have to walk this part of the journey alone. I serve with my whole heart in any way I can—whether it’s holding space, helping with baby care, providing resources, or just being a comforting presence in the quiet moments. If you’re expecting, in the thick of postpartum, or just need someone to talk to, I’m here for you. Let’s walk this journey together. Can't wait to hear from you!

She considers it a privilege to be a part of their team, helping to alleviate stress and allowing them time and support for healing, connection, joy and developmentally aligned support during this beautiful season.

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.

Hello My name is Marlene Solorio I fully and wholeheartedly trust that you can give birth naturally, because GOD designed women and babies to work together during birth. You are a powerful human and GOD designed you perfectly. So deep down inside you know exactly what to do. I love helping moms find the confidence to birth autonomously through education and empowerment. After my 3 unnecessary cesareans, I decided to become a doula. When I found out I was pregnant with my 4th I told myself I was going to have a natural birth, even though every doctor and midwife in my area told me I couldn't. And boy did I prove them wrong with my VBA3C. So that's why I'm here, I want to help you have a beautiful empowering birth like I did. I know it's possible because I just did it!
