Hello, I am Cari.
I am a birth doula, photographer, and cloth diaper educator serving the Central Florida area
Why should you hire a doula?
Educational Support
A doula helps you make confident and informed decisions by providing evidence-based information and resources to help you make your most important choices.
Physical Support
A doula helps you to have the birth YOU want. A doula provides coping techniques and positions to help you through labor no matter what form of pain management you choose.
Emotional Support
Birth is an emotional, wonderful, euphoric, amazing time in a family’s life. But it can also be hard, long, and at times, painful. A doula is there to hold space for you (and your partner’s) intense emotional reactions during this time, and provide encouragement and strength when you need it.

FAQ
-
A doula is a dedicated source of continual physical, emotional, and mental support throughout your pregnancy and labor experience. She is there for you and your support team only.
-
I strive to maintain a balance between affordable and income. I intentionally keep my birth package rate low to remain accessible to a wider pool of clientele. I also provide flexible payment options, and a sliding scale (on a case by case basis; if you require assistance paying for support, we can discuss that during your free consultation).
-
Doulas are NOT medical professionals. Therefore, all medical checks, cervical checks, fetal heart rate checks, blood pressure, or anything else of the nature are outside a doula's scope of practice. We are there to cover all the bases your medical team often cannot, which is your emotional and mental well-being.
-
I support all birth plans, from home births to cesarean sections. I do not, however, support a free birth. I require that you have a medical professional in attendance at your birth.
