Amazing Support – A True Blessing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Joanna Guzman. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. She provided not only expert knowledge and guidance but also incredible emotional support throughout my pregnancy, labor journey. During my delivery, Joanna was my rock—calm, reassuring, and always one step ahead, anticipating my needs before I even voiced them. She helped me feel empowered, confident, and safe throughout the entire process. Her warmth, patience, and dedication made all the difference, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her. If you are looking for a compassionate, skilled, and incredibly supportive doula, I highly recommend Joanna .She is a gift to any family welcoming a new baby!

Hello, my name is Rickeya, and I am a dedicated maternal and newborn care professional with a passion for supporting families during one of the most meaningful transitions of their lives. My goal is to provide exceptional clinical care, emotional support, and guidance as parents navigate the beautiful and sometimes overwhelming journey of parenthood. I am a Labor and Delivery Surgical Technologist with over two years of hands-on experience in labor and delivery, where I have served as a patient advocate and assisted in both vaginal deliveries and cesarean sections. My background also includes six years as a Certified Nursing Assistant, working across multiple hospital specialties, which has strengthened my clinical skills, adaptability, and compassionate approach to patient care. As a mother of two, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work. I take great pride in supporting new parents, ensuring their babies are safe, comforted, and well cared for. My newborn care experience includes feeding support, sleep relief, overnight care, and night nanny services. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I am deeply committed to providing calm, reliable, and knowledgeable care that allows families to feel confident, supported, and at ease during this special time.

Absolutely — here’s a strong, heartfelt 5-star style review that sounds genuine and standout: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rickeya was truly a blessing to our family during the newborn stage. From the very first night, her calm presence, professionalism, and deep knowledge of newborn care immediately put us at ease. She not only cared for our baby with incredible attentiveness and gentleness, but she also supported us as new parents with reassurance, education, and emotional encouragement when we needed it most. Her background in labor and delivery really shows — she is confident, organized, and always prioritizes safety. Our baby’s feeding, sleep, and overall comfort improved so much under her care, and being able to rest at night knowing our little one was in such capable hands was priceless. She anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and created a peaceful nighttime routine that helped our whole household. Beyond her skills, Rickeya is simply a kind and compassionate person who truly loves what she does. Any family would be lucky to have her support during such an important time. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

At Doula at your cervix, I believe in gentle, personalized support for families during the conception and pregnancy process. I consider each pregnancy, labor, and birth to be a unique and miraculous experience where the emerging family is at the center. With a multidisciplinary approach, families can decide on their birth process and the environment where they feel safest to welcome their baby into the world. I'm here to accompany you with sensitivity and professionalism on this special journey.

Leenoshka was absolutely amazing as my doula! She came to my house and help me understand in a detailed manor the steps and the things that go into labor, and breastfeeding. When I went into labor and called her at 4am she answered and kept in touch until it was really go time and she came over. She helped the whole time, being in labor was not easy but all the tools she brought and her knowledge helped out so much. I was able to be in labor for only 40 hours, and I kept progressing and was able to do it naturally. Definitely do not know what I would have done without her. She also helped me with latching baby girl on which I absolutely appreciate!

Hey New Friend I’m Justine, your new friend, your cheerleader, your support, and your added strength from your Baby Bump, Beyond Birth journey. You’ll find me filling many roles as a wife, mother of 3, early childhood enthusiast, and dedicated doula that loves photographing cherished moments throughout Central Florida. Some say a doula is a luxury, however for many it’s a necessity! I became a doula because I realized how many women/birthing persons are without support or a village to help them through what could be the most beautiful yet scariest time of their life. At Baby Bumps, Beyond Birth, we believe that every individual deserves a birth experience that honors their autonomy, dignity, and unique story. We are dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care that nurtures the whole person - body, mind, and spirit. Through education, compassion, and individualized support, my mission is to support and uplift birthing individuals and their families, fostering a safe, informed, and empowered experience from pregnancy to parenthood.

Justine's ability to listen and provide support is unmatched. She also understands that each birth and experience is different, which allows her to adjust to meet the special needs of each mom. I would recommend Justine as a Doula to any mom who needs support and advocacy on their journey to motherhood. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future to handle my birth needs.

Carolina Escobar Downie

Hi moms and dads! I am so excited to have the opportunity to serve you as you embark on the most beautiful journey in life- parenthood. My name is Carolina and I am originally from Boston, Massachusetts with Colombian roots. I have lived in Orlando since the summer of 2000 and received my BA in International Relations, before deciding that the work that sets my soul on fire is helping mamas and kiddos live mindful, meaningful lives where they trust their intuition and learn to love themselves unconditionally. My goal as a doula is to help moms realize that they have the inner strength to achieve the pregnancy, birth and postpartum periods of their dreams. With my certification as a yoga teacher, I apply much of what I learned in my training within my birth support services.

If you’re looking for someone that can help you navigate your new reality as a first time mom than this is it Carolina is priceless & worth every cent that you can spend on her as a doula/ parenting educator Her experience and intuition speaks louder than any knowledgeable doctor I’ve been too she’s helped me help my baby better than anyone could. I’ve known Carolina for 7 years & since she announced that she was offering doula services I just knew I had to come to her when I was ready to become a mom and that happened sooner than expected and it was the first thing I did when I found out and I’m so glad I did because she became my rock during my pregnancy especially being a first time mom and not knowing how to do things and what to expect she easily empowers you to believe in yourself and allow your intuition to quickly kick in from pregnancy to birth to postpartum She encourages you and helps you so much that it made me feel like doctors were useless compared to her!!! She’s calmed every doubt and as soon as you bring a problem to her she’s quick with a solution there’s soo much more but it’s something that you will have to experience yourself to truly see how great she is Seriously she’s so great you will not regret it it’s the best thing you can invest in as you join your new journey as a mom and your future to be the best mommy you can be!!
