about me

kayla, your golden doula

Hello! I'm Kayla, a dedicated doula based in Minneapolis, passionate about building meaningful connections and supporting families through the sacred journey of childbirth. My journey into doula work was born from a deep sense of justice and a passion for ensuring everyone has access to compassionate, evidence-based care. I saw the critical need for more support during the birth process and felt called to it, leading me to become certified through DONA International. By offering care that is rooted in empathy and respect, I empower families with the knowledge and guidance they need to feel safe, confident, and fully supported.I believe in the power of relationships and the importance of genuine connection. Listening to each individual's needs and desires is at the heart of my practice. My approach centers on physiological birth, encouraging parents to trust their bodies and embrace the natural wisdom within. I view birth as a deeply spiritual and intuitive process, where the mind, body, and spirit work in harmony.Incorporating spirituality into my practice, I strive to create an environment where parents feel both empowered and spiritually connected. Birth is a sacred and transformative experience, and I am committed to honoring this profound time in your life.My services include personalized prenatal visits, continuous labor support, and postpartum care that extends through the fourth trimester. I believe that the period after birth is just as crucial as the birth itself. I provide nurturing support to help families adjust and thrive, ensuring that parents and newborns feel cared for and connected during this important transition.
