your birth BFF who won’t panic when your water breaks in Target.

I'm Mari-

I’m a birth and postpartum doula, a bilingual mama of three, and the kind of gal who packs her hospital bag with snacks and scripture.

I help you walk into labor, delivery, and postpartum with confidence that sticks. Not from Pinterest. Not from panic. From actual preparation, honest support, and a plan that meets your real life.

Birth is a miracle, however you choose to do it.
And nope, you don’t need to have it all figured out.

Then we’ll build a plan together. One that flexes with your real life. Maybe you need doula care. Maybe it’s birth prep coaching. Maybe it’s just someone you can text when you're spiraling about what contractions actually feel like.

No rigid expectations on "how it should be". Just practical, honest support that calms the chaos and centers you in your story.
Because you’re not just planning a birth, you’re stepping into motherhood.

Whether you’re newly pregnant or deep in your third trimester, we’ll start with what actually matters: your story, your hopes, and what’s keeping you up at 2am.

Pregnancy wasn’t treated like a diagnosis.
Postpartum wasn’t rushed or minimized.

Women were surrounded. Bathed in steaming herbs, handed bowls of broth and bellies wrapped in postpartum. This model of care reminded mamas that they weren’t meant to do this alone.

That legacy lives in how I show up for you.

I’m originally from Honduras, where aunties, neighbors, and midwives showed up for women with the kind of care you won’t find in a textbook.

After walking through three births of my own, I carry that same legacy into every mama I walk alongside.

This isn’t modern hustle culture in disguise.
It’s slow, grounded, time-honored care — rooted in what has nourished women for generations.

Because motherhood was never meant to be lonely.
And your story? It deserves to be seen, held, and honored every step of the way.

Let’s build a birth and postpartum experience that actually works for your real life.
