Beyond my doula role, I am a mom to a 4 year old boy, a 2 year old girl, and I find joy in bonfires, gardening and a good cup of coffee.

Hi, my name is Clarice and I’m a Certified Postpartum Doula, PCD(DONA), Lactation Counselor and Certified Postpartum Nutrition Professional, CPPNP. The 4th trimester is full of joy and excitement but can also feel overwhelming and be a challenging transition time. Focus and attention is typically on the birth, but evidence shows that support during the postpartum time is critical for the new parents. I would love to help you adjust to your new role by providing physical and emotional support.

I attended my first birth at 11 years old when my youngest brother was born. Since then I have been drawn to birth work. I live in Pillager and maintain a small hobby farm with a garden, chickens dogs and cats where I spend my time connecting with nature and baking sourdough bread. I value abundance, spirituality and meaningful connections. I attended my first doula training and workshop in 2022, solidifying my desire to help ease the transition into parenthood, whether through prenatal preparation, birth work or postpartum care.

"Most of us did not learn when we were young that our capacity to be self-loving would be shaped by the work we do and whether that work enhances our well-being." – bell hooks. This is a quote that has stuck with me as I explore my career path. Becoming a doula is something I did not follow through with until the murder of George Floyd. Seeing the striking images of pregnant Black mothers protesting around the country ignited the fire in me to finally complete my training to become a certified perinatal educator - meaning I can provide childbirth education, prenatal support, labor and delivery support, lactation support, and newborn care support. But my calling to birth work started on the day I was born with my mother being hospitalized for 2 months postpartum from an avoidable mistake during an emergency c-section. I value empathy, collaboration, and being open minded. As a doula, I am intentional about serving my clients in a way that supports self-empowerment, so they feel they have all the information they feel they need to make the best decision for them and their baby/babies. I do not shy away from vulnerability, and I believe this allows me to have relationships with my clients built on trust.

I love what I Do-ULA! My passion is for women, children and families and how to keep them together. I enjoy working with clients, families, teen parents, diverse populations, and community organization to help develop ways to tap into the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well being. I am a Certified Doula (8 + years), Certified Lactation Specialist, Mentor, Yoga Instructor, and Motivational Speaker. I would love to answer any more questions you may have otherwise I'm available for a free consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, my name is Amanda Jurrens, and I am incredibly honored and excited to walk alongside you on one of the most transformative days of your life, the day you welcome your child into the world. My journey into birth work has been shaped by nearly a decade of experience in the assisted reproductive technology industry, both professionally and personally, as a three-time gestational carrier. These experiences have ignited a deep passion for supporting families during this beautiful chapter of their lives. I am committed to education, advocacy, and ensuring that every individual feels truly seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to bring a calming, nurturing presence to your labor and delivery, providing continuous physical and emotional support.

I would be truly honored to be part of your birth journey and to help make this milestone everything you have dreamed it could be.

Hi there! I’m Megan (she/her). I’m so glad you’re considering doula support for your or your partner’s upcoming birth. I believe all parents deserve judgement-free, evidence-based support during their labor, birth and postpartum. My journey to fully birth obsessed began during my first pregnancy. I needed to know all the things and hear all the stories. I quickly learned that many birthing people, especially those in marginalized communities, do not receive the care they deserve during their journey to and through parenthood. This is when I discovered doulas and the support they provide. So I hired my doula, had two supported and empowering in-hospital birth experiences and went on my way as a mom of two, working a typical 9-5 in corporate marketing— never quite shaking a new found desire to make a difference in the birth community. Fast forward a few years, endless heart-to-hearts with my family and friends about making a change and I finally enrolled in a doula training. I truly believe this is what I’m meant to do and I’m so glad to have found my way here. My goal as a birth and postpartum doula is to empower birthing people and their partners through judgment-free and evidence-based support. When I’m not doula-ing, I’m usually spending time with my husband, our two daughters and two elder pups. Before parenthood and a pandemic hit, you could find us skiing, hiking, trying new restaurants, taking on a house project we probably should have left to professionals or binging our favorite shows. Now, you’re more likely to find us at a local park, swimming pool or in our backyard. A meaningful conversation over a cup of coffee or glass of wine is the way to my heart. I am so honored to serve birth clients in Minneapolis, St. Paul and all the surrounding suburbs.

Hi there! I'm a bebo mia trained full spectrum doula, specializing in fertility and birth support.

Hi! I’m Annika and I am excited to support you through your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.
