Denver Doulas
Trusted, Compassionate, Experienced.
Birth Doula Support in Denver
Choosing your birth support team is one of the most important decisions of this season. We take that invitation seriously.
As birth doulas we have collectively supported hundreds of births across the Denver metro, at every hospital, birth center, and home setting from Littleton to Boulder. We have been present for unmedicated waterbirths and emergency cesareans, long inductions and fast labors, VBACs and first births and fourth births. Whatever your birth looks like, someone on our team has held that space before.
We are especially drawn to families who want to be informed and empowered in their birth, who want to understand their options, make their own choices, and feel strong rather than swept along. Whether that means a completely unmedicated birth or a supported epidural labor, we are here to make sure you stay at the center of your own story.
for families curious about low-intervention birth
If you are hoping for an unmedicated, physiological, or low-intervention birth — you are in the right place.
We love this work. We know how to support a laboring body through natural sensation, position changes, water, breath, and presence. We know how to help your partner show up for you. We know when to be completely quiet and when to speak. And we know how to help you stay grounded if the plan changes.
We will never push you toward or away from any decision. What we will do is make sure you have the information you need to make the choice that is right for you, whatever that is. An informed choice made by you is always the right choice.
Doula Services
-
Our doula support is unique to each client, but generally, you can expect:
Responsive support throughout your prenatal period, labor and delivery and immediate postpartum. We offer unlimited text, email, and call support prenatally, in person prenatal visits, and monthly gatherings for clients with our team. When you go into labor, you let us know when you need us, and we will meet you where you are - be that home or at your birth place.
A well rounded team by your side from the time you become our client forward. Because of our team structure, we can offer birth prep education, lactation education and concerns, offer an educated perspective on clinical concerns, help you get that yoga session in, and more - all within the team who will be a part of your birth day.
During your birth day, we help you know your options and communicate with your provider - so your wishes are known and your birth team is aligned. We support your partner to know how to support you - and we bring our ‘doula eye’ to reassure. We help you feel as strong as we know you are.
Postpartum support - we stay 1-2 hours after you have your baby to help everyone feel settled. And because each journey is so varied, this often looks quite different per client. We like to visit you at home at least once in the first week or so after your baby is born, and we have amazing connections within the community for postpartum doulas and other resources for the postpartum period.
Investment: $2,000–$2,700 We price on a sliding scale because we believe access to doula support should not be determined by income alone. When you reach out we will talk through what works for your family. We also offer payment plans and have helped many clients receive full or partial insurance reimbursement.
At the top of our range you receive everything in our package plus priority scheduling and extended postpartum support. At every level you receive our full attention, our full experience, and our full team.

$100.00 per session

what your birth day looks like with us
When you go into labor you call or text our on-call line. We talk through where you are and what you need. We come to you, at home, at the hospital, at the birth center, when you are ready for us.
We do not show up as a stranger. We show up as someone who has sat with you, learned your story, and thought about your birth. We bring our bag of tools: the rebozo, the birth ball, counterpressure, warmth, presence, and we bring our experience of having been in rooms like yours before.
After your baby is born we stay. We help you find your first latch, help your partner feel settled, and make sure you feel held before we leave. And we visit you at home in those first tender days, because the postpartum period is not an afterthought, it is part of the birth story too.
“Rosemary Wellness Collective and our Doula Lia made this birth a completely different experience from my first baby. The whole team was helpful and resourceful over the second and third trimesters, with as little or as much support as I wanted. When it came to labor and delivery, and early post-partum, Lia was everything I hoped for. A calm presence, offering tools and resources throughout the process, as well as advocating for me and my goals. I think her presence allowed us to relax and enjoy the experience more than if we had been on our own. The rest of the team was wonderful and I would recommend any of them for your doula support.”
“Looking back at my birth I can’t imagine going through the experience without BreAnn by my side. BreAnn supported me (and my mother/support person) through a last minute induction due to preeclampsia followed by 4+ hours of pushing and finally an emergency c-section. Every step of the way BreAnn was there ensuring my needs were listened to. She was incredibly knowledgeable about various positions and support measures that we could utilize given the constraints of the hospital and my preeclampsia. BreAnn even supported me in the operating room and immediately after my c-section despite having been up from the early morning supporting an incredibly hands on labor. If you are looking for compassionate hands on and emotional support for your labor I can’t recommend BreAnn enough, you will feel empowered and informed every step of the way.”
