DULUTH BIRTH DOULAS

Aaniin, my name is, Amber, and I am a mother to three beautiful daughters, and a "extra-mom" to a teenage son, two adult daughters, plus two grandsons. I started learning about birthwork around 13 years ago after the natural birth of my second daughter. I want to be the support I wish I had/needed in the room during delivery and throughout the journey of pregnancy. I'm all about natural healing and listening to our bodies and being a strong advocate and voice for those who need. I'm excited to walk this journey with you!

Since 2011 I have been studying holistic health and herbalism. In 2016 something clicked and my passion for supporting women and families began. Eager to learn, I finished my first doula training that August. Shortly after I gave birth to my daughter in 2017. My birth was hard, but so transformative for me. I knew deep inside my bones that supporting families through this transitional phase of life is something I was called to do.
With my Associates Degree in Integrative Health I specialize in holistic modalities to support the birthing family.I am currently seeking my License in Massage Therapy and plan to continue my holistic medicine education as I feel called.
As a birth and postpartum doula I work with families in whatever ways they need. I thrive in my ability to meet people where they are at and discuss all aspects of birth. I believe every mother deserves their voice to be heard when they are bringing their child into this world.

In my free time I enjoy being with my family, playing outside, sewing patchwork clothing, snowboarding, eating and my new love of archery.

Hi, I'm Bailey, a Certified Doula and trained Certified Lactation Consultant! I'm also a loss and earth-side mama who believes in changing our society's view on birth and parenthood to make it less overwhelming and more loving. My journey to motherhood started with the loss of our daughter in 2022, making me realize even more how I desired to be a doula and walk with families. In 2023 I had my son via cesarean, and in 2026 welcomed my daughter via HBAC (home birth after cesarean)! In these experiences, I've learned how special every birth is.

My goal as your doula is to make you feel educated, encouraged and cared for. Birth is unlike anything else in life, becoming a sacred memory, which I don't take lightly as someone there to witness that miracle. I am passionate about pregnancy and lactation education and hope to help you make the best decisions to pursue the pregnancy/birth/postpartum you and your family desire. I also love perinatal nutrition and adore talking to families about their nutritional desires, if requested.

It is truly my hope to connect deeply and to give unique support based on the wants and goals of each family I work with! You deserve to feel nurtured during this time!

Hi! I’m Britt.  I’ve worked as a birth doula since 2011, and a peer breastfeeding counselor through the WIC program since 2021. I recently became re-certified with Childbirth International after taking a break to have two babies of my own!
I am passionate about rural health, reproductive choice, and co-creating a positive birthing culture. 
It is an honor to help birthing people advocate for themselves and the experiences they want through hands on and emotional support, deep listening, education, connection and compassion. 
My other interests include biking and swimming with my family, growing flowers, and making/teaching art.

Hi, I’m Callie — birth nerd, doula, mom of three girls [Eilee (6), Oaklee & Blayke (3)], certified lactation consultant, and your biggest hype woman through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I’m passionate about helping families feel informed, supported, and confident as they navigate one of life’s biggest transitions.

With a background in maternal-child health, I’ve had the privilege of supporting families through pregnancy, infant feeding, postpartum adjustment, and early parenting in both clinical and community-based settings. A huge part of my work is advocating for equitable, respectful care and helping improve the birth and postpartum experiences our BIPOC communities receive. I love combining evidence-based education with compassionate, down-to-earth support so you can feel empowered to make the choices that are right for you.

Whether we’re talking comfort measures, birth preferences, newborn feeding, or just surviving the emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy, I’m here to support you without judgment. Birth can be unpredictable, powerful, messy, beautiful — and you don’t have to do it alone.

Hello, I'm Emily, a compassionate and dedicated doula, passionate about supporting families like yours. My journey began with the birth of my own three little ones – an unforgettable experience that ignited my passion for empowering mothers and families during life's most precious moments.
I believe every birth story is unique and deserving of love, care, and respect. As your doula, I'll provide a warm and non-judgmental space for you to explore your desires, address your concerns, and celebrate your strength.
I'm excited to support you on your journey and look forward to learning and growing together. Whether you're expecting your first child or adding to your family, I'm honored to walk alongside you on this incredible journey. Let's work together to create a birth experience that's truly yours – filled with love, joy, and cherished memories.

My names Kieona and I have always had passion for taking care of others from a young age. I was a CNA for 13 years working with the elder population who had Alzheimers and Dementia and as a Certified Medical Assistant in Internal Medicine at the local hospital for 5 years. My latest career pivot was geared more toward wholeness and wellness and during the last 3 years I have been working as a massage therapist and holistic healer. I am also currently in nursing school.

I became a Doula at the end of 2022, a few years after having my youngest child. My own birth experience is what made understand and realizing that being able to have someone be there for you present, aware and willing to support your wishes during a vulnerable time while in labor is key. Another big deciding factors was that being I am a woman of color, I wanted to be able to be that person who someone can relate to, who has had or experienced certain life situations like me. Because representation in any situation especially in healthcare is extremely important when there can be health disparities and times where you feel as if you are not being heard.

Working with expecting moms and families brings so much joy to my soul because I know that I get to help with bringing a precious soul into this world and I look forward to working with new clients.

Liza is a Birth, postpartum doula/educator and Lactation peer counselor in Northern Minnesota (Duluth). She decided this was her calling for life after having her own bundle and not being supported as she hoped. She really would have loved to have a doula and preferably someone who looked like her in the delivery room but two things 1 none of the doulas in my area looked like me and 2 none of the doulas took insurance so she needed to pay out of pocket. She has spent a large chunk of her life caring for friends and family during pregnancy and birth not knowing what a doula was.When she is not in the delivery room she is teaching,chasing behind her 2 year old son or pouring intention candles. She loves all things natural and holistic and loves learning about astrology. She works in her community as a young mom educator and works with Minnesota prison doula program.She hopes with this path in life to be able to encourage, empower and educate the women of color in her community to have the best pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

I have a background in Montessori Education with a focus on prenatal life through age 3.  I am also experienced with and knowledgeable about cloth diapering!

Hi my name is Nazalyn but I like to be called Nace for short. It is my calling in life to help others and I found this in supporting families through doula work. I have 9 years of working in the Native American population I always found that it would be nice to have someone who looks like you and relate to their culture.
I am especially passionate about breastfeeding. My knowledge of breastfeeding includes breastfeeding my own four children, and working both as a WIC breastfeeding peer counselor and an Indigenous breastfeeding counselor.
My hope is to help families by sharing my knowledge and experience, sharing the things I wish I would have known when I started my own birth and parenting journey.

Hi, I'm Rebecca! I'm a birth doula, wife, and mom of three (ages 6, 4, and 1) who is deeply passionate about walking alongside families during one of the most life-changing seasons of their lives. If I’m not doing doula work, I’m usually caring for my children and home or spending time with family.
My own birth experiences taught me just how important it is to be informed and to feel heard, supported, and cared for. My postpartum experiences also showed me how invaluable it is to have someone in your corner during this time and to have someone to lean on. That's the person I strive to be for every family I support.
The lessons I learned during my births and postpartum periods grew into a passion for becoming a doula so I could help other families navigate pregnancy, labor, birth, and the postpartum period with confidence and compassion. I've been a caregiver in many jobs and different roles throughout my adult life, and I feel incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to support and care for families during such a meaningful moment in their lives.
I believe there is no one "right" way to give birth. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, an epidural, an induction, a cesarean, or a VBAC, my role is to support your choices, provide evidence-based information, advocate for you and your preferences, offer comfort measures, and be a calm, encouraging presence every step of the way.
I strive to create a space where families feel safe asking questions, expressing concerns, celebrating victories, and simply being themselves. Birth is more than just a single event; it's an experience that stays with you for a lifetime. I consider it an incredible privilege to be invited into that journey.
