I love evidence-based information, really nice pens, and birth puns. Throughout pregnancy and birth, I love getting to share my brain full of birthy facts, my excitement over weird things like placentas and hormones, and my joy for the beauty of new life! I am passionate, loyal, and gentle, and I believe everyone deserves a doula. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1653084490431-2XP1FLH2XE3EOU0JC7IM/DSC_0412.jpg Home - Birth Doula Services As a doula in Colorado Springs, my goal is to provide you with all the information and support you need to have an amazing birth experience.

A doula is there to ease your fears, be present with you, and encourage you through this amazing challenge. She knows that laboring people need someone safe, who brings no judgment to the birth space. Many partners worry that a doula will replace them in the birth space, but a good doula is a partner's right hand woman. They work in tandem to help the laboring person have an amazing birth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1617306409964-N5ZBK23SIXY6WWCFLICI/Doula+helping+mom+breastfeed What Does a Doula Do? - Educational Support Childbirth education and informative prenatal visits help the doula normalize the birth and postpartum experience for couples. A doula and childbirth educator ensures that you're not walking into labor and breastfeeding blind. You will be well-informed about your options, rights, and resources as parents. A doula does not advocate for her clients with healthcare providers, but instead empowers parents to advocate for themselves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1617306772681-GUAV5VZE9HBIVU0FTOH9/Doula+hip+squeeze+laboring+parents What Does a Doula Do? - Hands-On Support Labor is hard work! Parents and babies work in tandem to dance through labor together. But, a lot of times, laboring parents need help! A doula is well-trained in comfort measures, labor positions, and the many variations of labor. Your doula’s "bag of tricks" as well as her experience and training help her make labor as comfortable as possible. "Unmedicated" doesn't mean "totally miserable!" Whether its muscle observation and quiet reminders, or some strong double hip squeezes, your doula will work hard to help you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1617987684578-O03WOO633G9XXFYC78GH/IMG_8097.jpg What Does a Doula Do? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1617987516243-C9EQ7ZKQZHOWRVZ5EPYK/IMG_5261.JPG What Does a Doula Do? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1617987798317-49ASXYP0QXWKEQLXPE1Y/IMG_5263.JPG What Does a Doula Do? https://www.littlebirdiebirth.com/get-connected daily 0.75 2026-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/1653084907187-8KUQQLSHZ0H1OADFCUVJ/D9EFE7E6-C5A8-4F1B-8268-E184A9CD937B.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/ff6727e5-202f-468f-818a-b63e2d19691d/IMG_0695.jpg https://www.littlebirdiebirth.com/experienced-parents daily 0.75 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/7cd88045-ebdf-4639-a13b-70b6bf87f746/DSC_1946.jpg Experienced Parents https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/5e48931d-f78d-4538-85ef-127487cce330/DSC_2050.jpg Experienced Parents https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604e69750633472cafdd78d1/bd20bf72-4076-49b5-a92e-aae5de08e21a/IMG_5419.jpg Experienced Parents - Madeline is the expert and support I needed in my corner for bringing my two babies into the world. We had two unmedicated, birthing center births with Madeline. And yes - you need a doula the second time too, if not more! Whether it's your first, second or fourth baby, you need Madeline! She gave me the confidence and knowledge that I needed to feel at peace. I never want to imagine a birth without her.
