Gracie went above and beyond when it came to being by my side for the delivery of my son. We went in thinking October 28th was the day only to find out that it was not. Not only was she there that day by my side to get that news and discuss options, but she was there the 2 days we were sent home, and then there again on the day we were scheduled to go back. While at home the 2 days she was constantly checking in on me and helping me with exercises and things to try to get baby boy to flip back head down. We were successful and she was one of my biggest cheerleaders during that time. When it came to labor and delivery she had so many tools to help me get as far as I possibly could without pain medication. She was my voice when I didn’t have one with the doctors and nurses. I am so IN LOVE with my birth pictures. It was something I didn’t know I needed or wanted until getting them done. I can’t recommend her enough as a birth doula and photographer!!! If you are looking for amazing support throughout the birthing process I would highly recommend hiring Gracie to be by your side!!!

Growing up as the middle child of six the topic of pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding was never something I had to wonder about. I watched my mother grow my younger siblings and got to witness the incredible bond she had with them as she breastfed them. I always knew I wanted to be surrounded by the birth space whether it be my own or someone else’s. Twenty-something years later…here I am! Welcome to my corner of the internet- I’m Kyra. I’m a wife, mother of two beautiful girls and birth obsessed! In Kindergarten, my teacher assigned our class an art project that I would remember forever- to draw a picture of what we wanted to be when we grew up. The other kids drew pictures of firefighters, teachers, doctors and police officers. I drew a picture of myself in a wedding dress! I knew that I wanted to get married and have babies and take care of my own home. I wanted to be my mom! Not long before I got married I found the picture I drew and wished I could have told little six-year-old me that I would get to be exactly what I wanted. After being told I would probably never be able to conceive and carry my own babies I fell pregnant. I was able to grow and birth that baby, I felt so blessed! Fast forward another nine months and I’m pregnant again- an even bigger surprise. I was able to grow and carry and birth that baby too. I was fortunate enough to have two very healthy pregnancies and was able to have unmedicated water births in a freestanding birth center. After my first birth, I decided to stop making excuses and pursue something I’m passionate about. That brought me here to you. It’s such a privilege that I get to be a role-model for my daughters in this way. I get to raise them knowing that birth is normal and isn’t something to be feared. I get the privilege of supporting the strongest women as they grow and birth their babies. I am so grateful to do this work. Thanks for being here.

Kyra was our doula for pregnancy and birth. She provided us with so much knowledge and care! She stepped in for birth classes, answered all questions I had, and made me feel confident to birth my baby. She stayed by my side the entire duration of my very very long labor and was so supportive!

Hi, my name is Becca. I am a mother of three Gigi of five. I have been a Doula since 2004 just did it for friends and family mainly and then my daughter started doing it two years ago. She has loved it and asked me to come join her the last year so we could help more mamas and families. Fun fact about me is I was a surrogate for twin little girls. It was the humblest thing I ever did, and it always warms my heart when I get to tell my story. I am here to help you guide through this journey of becoming parents either for the first time or again. We try and to make your birth plan become a reality no matter what it is. We do not judge if you decide to get pain medicine we also don’t judge if you have certain request this is your journey. We’re just here to help you through it. If you would like to know anything else feel free to message me as I am an open book.

Becca was everything i didnt know i needed. She was my strength, my support system, coach, friend and advocate. Becca helped me find strength in myself that i didnt realize i had. Everytime i felt like giving up Becca reminded my how far i had came and that i could keep going. Becca was my support system and was there within an hour of being checked in and stayed with me and baby until after delivery. She was my coach and stayed by my side through every contraction or obstacle that we faced. She was my friend and we shared many heart to hearts in the long overnight hours of labor. She kept me up to date on everything that was going on with my care in terms i could understand and what my options were when things got tough. Becca was my advocate when i couldnt find the words or wasnt sure what the best next step should be. I couldn't have went through roughly 40 hours of labor without her by my side. She kept the atmosphere calm and peaceful with lights and music. She made sure i was aware of everything that was happening and that i had alternative options to an epidural. She kept me moving and walking the halls trying to get baby to descend. My experience was amazing thanks to Becca and she will be the first thing i add to my list for my future deliveries.

Hello! My name is Celeste. My desire to become a doula started when I felt called to help and support women through their journey of birth before, during, and after. To this day, I believe my own experience of childbirth with my daughter would have been positively different if I had the opportunity of having a doula. Creating life and bringing it into this world is a superpower women have, and I want to empower other women from all walks of life through this physical, emotional, and spiritual process. Everyone’s childbirth story is different, and I enjoy hearing and learning from their experiences. I love working with babies and have many years of experience, as I worked at a daycare before, during, and after my daughter was born. I am naturally an empathetic and nurturing woman and find joy in making sure everyone around me is well and healthy. My partner and I have big families and we enjoy spending lots of quality time with everyone and creating new memories for my 5 year old daughter, Alayna. Although I love being surrounded by my family and friends, I also enjoy my alone time occasionally. I believe it is important to spend time with yourself to recharge and fill your own cup, so you can then help fill other’s cups. Dancing, reading, and enjoying a nice cup of coffee in the sun are some of my favorite things to do.

I had my first born at a young age. I was afraid to go through the process alone and with a little research I came across blooming birth service by Celeste. One of the best decisions I ever made. She was amazing, anytime I needed her assistance she was present. Celeste would apply to my emails and messages quickly, I knew I was her priority at all times. My son will now be 4 months old and I still reach out with any questions, Celeste never fails to show her amazing commitment to all clients. I highly recommend all expecting Mommy's to service with blooming birth, as the experience is one of a kind.

Libby Deutsch is the co-owner of Holistic Family Doulas, a certified birth and postpartum doula and private childbirth educator. Libby is known for her grounded, steady presence and her ability to fully surrender to the person giving birth. Her care is deeply mother-led, rooted in listening, attunement and meeting each client exactly where they are. She is steady without being passive and encouraging without overpowering the moment. A core part of Libby’s work is empowering mothers through education—helping them understand what is happening in their body and brain during labor so they can trust the process and feel more confident in their decisions. Mothers often share that they feel calmer, more grounded and more trusting of themselves after time together. Her foundation in physiologic birth is informed by both training and lived experience, including birthing her own children at home. She supports all types of birth with equal respect and works seamlessly across home, birth center and hospital settings. She is especially skilled at supporting mothers navigating complex emotions, previous trauma or a desire to reclaim and rewrite their birth experience—gently reminding them of their inherent strength. Libby’s postpartum care is intentional and nurturing, centered on restoration, nourishment and emotional steadiness. Drawing from global postpartum traditions, including Malay bellybinding (trained by The Birth Matron), vaginal steaming and Ayurvedic principles, she offers slow, thoughtful care that prioritizes the mother’s recovery. Through her training in yoga and Reiki, she brings a calming presence that supports mothers as they reconnect with their bodies and trust themselves in this new season. Libby’s role is not to lead your experience, but to walk beside you—offering steadiness, encouragement and trust as you move through birth and into motherhood, reminding you of your strength every step of the way.

Certified Birth & Postpartum Doula | Childbirth Educator | Lactation Specialist As a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, I provide calm, nurturing, and evidence-based support for families through pregnancy, birth, and the newborn stage. My goal is to help parents feel informed, confident, and cared for every step of the way. Grant + Leah 2/20/2026 "Mari was assigned to us as a replacement doula when our original doula had a conflicting delivery. Mari immediately reached out and was flexible to our needs in early labor. My wife was laboring hard in triage for 7 hours (there was a major rush at the hospital, we couldn't get a room or her planned epidural for that long) and doesn't know how she would have coped without Mari. She immediately brought a calm presence to our situation while also helping us get the situation under control and manage contractions with various techniques. Mari also helped us execute on our birth plan and encouraged us to get rest whenever possible. We would recommend Mari to anybody seeking a doula."

Working with Mari was one of the best decisions I made for my birth experience. From the very beginning, she was an incredible source of knowledge and resources — always sharing up-to date information and continuously educating herself so I felt confident in the guidance I was receiving. She truly made my birthing experience feel safer, calmer, and more supported. She was a strong advocate for me, helping me voice my preferences and ensuring I felt heard every step of the way. I never felt alone in the process. She was always responsive, approachable, and genuinely kind — no question was ever too small. Knowing she was on call and available whenever I needed her brought such peace of mind. Her steady presence, encouragement, and reassurance made all the difference. I’m so grateful for her support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and deeply committed to her clients.
