My name is Tressie Casey, I’m a proud wife and homeschooling mother of three beautiful children, and of course a birth nerd. As a dedicated doula I’m committed to supporting families through the transformative journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My mission is to create a safe, empowering, and nurturing space where parents feel informed, respected, and confident in their choices. As a doula, I offer personalized care tailored to meet your unique needs and preferences. I bring not only professional training but also deep compassion and a listening ear, ensuring you feel truly seen and heard every step of the way. Whether through birth preparation, hands-on labor support, or gentle postpartum care, I strive to empower you and your family through this life-changing experience. My passion for this work stems from my own experiences. My first two babies entered the world in quite traumatic experiences, following severe postpartum depression and lactation issues. I remember thinking to myself “I don’t want anyone else going through this alone”. I quickly became the lady that friends and family called when they needed help or had questions. I had no idea what a doula was until someone sent me a thank you card one time that said “Thank you for being my doula”. This word really got me. I had no clue what that was. I decided to look it up and to my surprise I found it originated from Greece and means “to serve or mother the mother”. I instantly fell in love with that and realized that it was my calling. I hardly ever hold babies because they are in the safest place in the world, their mother’s arms. I always hold the mother though because just like her baby, she was just born too.

As a mother myself, I know that how you are supported matters. I serve families in the Springfield and Branson areas with a mission rooted in informed, Christ-centered, and mother-focused care. I believe that birth is a sacred event. My mission is to help you steward your pregnancy and birth with confidence, grounding your experience in the wisdom of God and the design of your own body. By providing you with evidence-based information, I help empower you to make choices that honor your family’s values. As your doula, I am here to be a steady, prayerful presence in your home, protecting the sanctity of your space so you can focus entirely on the miracle of your baby’s arrival. I believe that when a mother is well-informed and spiritually anchored, she is capable of extraordinary things. My care is designed to honor the autonomy God gave you, providing the physical and emotional support you need to have a blissful beginning. Whether you are navigating your first homebirth or your fifth, I am here to support you in body, mind, and spirit. Note: While my practice is dedicated to the unique rhythm of homebirth, I occasionally support hospital clients when our values and goals are in perfect alignment. If you are birthing in a hospital and feel we would be a great team, I would love to connect and see if we are a good match.

Hi! I’m Kylie, a wife and mama of three kids. I work with a team of 3 doulas in and surrounding Springfield, Missouri I’ve had a passion for pregnancy and birth since I was a little kid, which has just grown over the years. At 17, I was present for the home birth of my youngest sibling. In that moment, I turned to the midwife and told her I was going to do this (birth work) with my life. After having my first baby, I realized how vital support is for a new mom. Whether it’s her first, third, or fifth baby. My goal as your Doula is to support and nurture you every step along the way of your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

My name is Kayla Jones & I'm a birth doula in the Denver Metro area where I live with my husband Sam and Atticus, our Great Dane. I'm originally from New Jersey and have lived in Colorado since 2015. I have a degree in Social Work and a minor in Human Development & Family Science which is where I first found my love for momma's and their babies. After a few doors closing, God opened the door for me to be a doula. I sat in my first DONA workshop & cried as I watched birth videos knowing I had finally found what I was supposed to do. I view being a doula as the greatest blessing that I get to be a part of each of your "best day ever". The fact that my job is to witness miracles is something that I will never take for granted.

We are a group of birth doulas, childbirth educators, and lactation counselors who offer prenatal, birth, and postpartum support as well as breastfeeding and childbirth education classes! We look forward to walking alongside you!

My background as an RN in both critical care and medical oncology largely involved walking alongside patients facing the end of life. These experiences sparked a deep passion in me to see that individuals are given a chance at the healthiest possible life - from the very start! This led me to complete Birth and Postpartum Doula Training through DONA International, as well as Lamaze Childbirth Educator training, so I could better support families from pre-conception all the way through the “fourth trimester” of postpartum. I believe these professional experiences, along with my personal journey as a mother of three—with births in both hospital and freestanding birth center settings—have uniquely equipped me to support families during the most vulnerable and powerful moments of becoming a parent. It's my honor to be a part of your unfolding birth journey! A Missouri native, my husband and I lived in several Midwestern cities before putting down roots on the family farm where he was raised. I am enamored by the earthiness of birth, whether it's a human's or a heifer's. I love slow mornings with my people, making nourishing foods and home goods with my hands, and reading about the juncture of bodies and souls under a giant quilt.
