Marcia Mattern, professional Birth Doula.
Providing emotional, educational, and physical support to pregnant, laboring and postpartum women.
“Marcia and support are synonymous. I met Marcia at a support group she holds monthly to discuss all things birth. I immediately felt heard, understood, and respected by her. I so appreciated the outlet she provided to process my two previous births.”
Happy Clients
Marcia gently reassured me that I was indeed going to meet our girl soon and throughout the night helped me to stay calm and focus on bringing our sweet little one earthside! While it was difficult at the time and probably the hardest thing I have ever done, I could not have imagined a better birth experience!

While I hoped for a vaginal birth with my second child, I did struggle to get rid of my fears and doubts. I credit a lot of my success in achieving an unmedicated, hospital VBAC to Marcia. She was instrumental in helping me work through each concern I had during pregnancy, and during my labor, she was brilliant at creating a calm, comfortable, and safe environment, helping me labor at home as long as possible.

Postpartum support was also extremely important as I had experienced postpartum depression with our first child. Marcia knew that placenta encapsulation would be extremely helpful and she provided that service in the privacy of our home. She also helped with latching when we had a few issues with nursing during the first few days.

She took the time to get to know me and my wishes for labor and delivery. I think the best part was that she gives YOU a voice in your own pregnancy, labor and delivery.
