My Birth Philosophy
I believe birth is a sacred event that can transform us for the better if we let it
I believe birth is sacred—a moment when time stands still, and the strength of a woman is fully realized. Every birth is unique, shaped by the beauty, courage, and intuition each mother brings to it. As a doula, my role is to walk beside you, honoring your story, your choices, and your strength.
Birth is not just a physical event—it is emotional, spiritual, and transformative. I believe women were created by God to give birth with power and grace, and that every mother deserves to feel supported, respected, and heard throughout her journey.
My approach is grounded in the understanding that each family’s needs are different. Whether you dream of a peaceful home birth or are navigating a hospital delivery, I am here to provide compassionate care, empowering you to make the decisions that feel right for you.
I see my work as part of your village—a guide, a listener, and a constant presence through every contraction and every moment of joy. It is my greatest honor to hold space for you in the sacred transition from maiden to mother, reminding you of the incredible strength and beauty you already possess.
Virtual doula support offers personalized, compassionate care throughout your pregnancy journey, all from the comfort of your home. Here's what you can expect:
Unlimited Prenatal Support
Engage in as many virtual prenatal sessions as you need, where we'll discuss your birth preferences, address any concerns, and prepare you for labor and delivery. I'm here to provide information, emotional support, and guidance tailored to your unique journey.
On-Call Availability from 37 Weeks Until Birth
Starting at 37 weeks, I'll be on-call 24/7, ready to support you through early labor signs, answer questions, and offer reassurance. Whether it's a late-night concern or early morning contractions, I'm just a call or message away to provide continuous virtual support.
Postpartum Support
After your baby's arrival, I continue to support you with virtual postpartum sessions. We'll address breastfeeding guidance, newborn care, emotional well-being, and any other questions or concerns you may have as you transition into motherhood.
Through video calls, phone conversations, and messaging, virtual doula support ensures you're never alone on this journey, providing the same compassionate care and expertise as in-person support.

Postpartum Support
"I originally thought a doula was a person who assisted during labor, like a labor coach. Cynthia was so much more than that for me. "
A Mother’s Story
Cynthia took the time to build a friendship of trust and transparency. We went walking together, met for coffee, and she even attended some prenatal appointments with me. She became someone I could lean on throughout my pregnancy for advice, resources, and lifestyle/nutrition tips especially during the last few months of pregnancy and even postpartum.
As a Christian, Cynthia brought me so much encouragement in the Lord. She prayed with and for me, sent me scripture, and reminded me to trust in God's plan and design for my body, even when my provider wasn't supporting me.
During labor, Cynthia supported myself and my husband in countless ways. Since this was my first labor, there were so many unknowns and Cynthia guided us through them with constant support. (My husband says he wouldn’t have known how to help me without her there, and appreciated the way she helped with half of the hip squeezes.)
It meant the world to us to have someone who we trusted that we could turn to when we were uncertain about a decision, someone who knew me well and BELIEVED in my vision for birth. She was a steady voice who could advocate for me when I couldn’t, and she helped me stand up for myself in ways I never have before. I truly don't know what I would have done without her and am so thankful for the friendship that grew from this journey together.

For regular sessions, you can expect your photos within 1–2 weeks, while birth photography galleries are delivered within 2–4 weeks. I know how special these moments are, so I always send sneak peeks within 24–48 hours of your session—including births—to give you a glimpse of the memories we’ve captured.
How fast is your turnaround time for pictures?
I support all kinds of birthing experiences, including home births, birth center deliveries, and hospital births. I also attend certain free births, depending on the specific needs and circumstances. No matter where you choose to give birth, my goal is to provide unwavering support and care that aligns with your vision for your birth experience.
What kinds of births do you attend?
Yes, I do! I understand that doula and photography services are an investment, and I want you to feel confident that it’s worth it. More importantly, if these services are something your heart is set on, I believe finances shouldn’t be a barrier. That’s why I’m happy to offer flexible payment plans to ensure you get the support and memories you deserve. Let’s work together to find an option that feels right for you.
