I’m Allie,

Children have always been my passion and my greatest joy. From gravitating toward the babies in the room to finding myself seated at the kids' table, even as an adult, my heart has always been drawn to little ones.

After college, I embarked on a journey to Italy, where I spent two incredible years teaching preschool at a bilingual school. Immersed in the beauty of travel and cultural exchange, I continued my adventures as an Au pair for a family of four in Paris and Shanghai. It was during this time that Doula's work sparked my fascination. Witnessing the transformative power of birth while supporting my host mother through the arrival of her fourth child ignited a deep-seated desire to aid others on their journey into parenthood.

After years of nurturing and teaching preschoolers and nannying, I pursued my lifelong dream of becoming a birth Doula.

Beyond my work, you can find me enjoying golf, exploring new destinations, attending concerts at Red Rocks, or simply relishing the fresh mountain air.

We had the absolute best experience with our Doula Allie! Her communication skills were excellent throughout the entire experience. From pregnancy to postpartum, Allie took the time to reach out and check on me and baby to make sure all our needs were met. During the birth, her presence was so calming and even the doctors and nurses commented on how tranquil our birth room felt. Allie made sure my voice was heard and my birth plan was followed. She brought a lightness to the experience and kept myself and my husband laughing and living in the moment. I would highly recommend Allie to anyone who is looking for an extremely professional doula who will put you and your baby first above all else! Her effervescent personality will have you forgetting all about your contractions, at least for a minute or two!

Merrie and Allie were amazing doulas and we were so lucky to have them there for this birth! I wanted to have an unmedicated birth and that extra level of support in the birth room. I was in prodromal labor for 5 days, she and Allie checked in me regularly and came by to help with progressing labor naturally and getting baby in the right position. After five days, I opted to be induced. I felt well prepared for this and what my options were thanks to Merrie’s guidance. They were with my husband and I every step of the way. They helped with changing positions and increasing my comfort, and even when I finally decided on an epidural- their support was amazing. We had the kind of experience I had hoped for and it was worth every penny. We had a beautiful birth experience and I know it would not have been the same without them. thank you so much Merrie and Allie!

We used intuitive birth with both of us sons. Misty was our first Doula in 2021 and she was amazing! By the time we needed to book a Doula for our second son in 2023 Misty was unavailable, but referred us to Allie who was also great. Misty has been a treasured part of our family for the past two years and I'm sure many more to come. We feel so lucky that we had Misty and Allie our births and would recommend them to anyone.

A professionally trained and experienced labor companion, a doula offers continuous mental, emotional, and physical support before, during, and after labor. They assist and support the mother and her partner achieve their birthing goals. Consider them akin to a specialized massage therapist for women in labor, a trusted birth advisor, and a compassionate therapist all rolled into one!
Giving birth can be stressful and unpredictable, especially for first-time mothers. Having a doula by your side is like having your best friend, an expert in birth, ensuring you feel comfortable and supported throughout the process.Here are some compelling statistics: Births attended by doulas reduce the risk of Cesarean section by 50%, shorten labor duration by 25%, decrease the use of pitocin by 40%, lower epidural requests by 60%, and reduce forceps or vacuum deliveries by 40%. Women supported by doulas also experience lower rates of postpartum depression, report higher satisfaction with their birth experiences, find the transition into motherhood smoother, and are more successful at breastfeeding.
Doulas provide support once active labor begins, helping parents recognize the right time to go to the hospital. This guidance is precious for first-time parents needing advice on when to seek medical assistance.
Absolutely not! A doula doesn't replace the birth partner; instead, they complement each other. Doulas offer invaluable support to partners by guiding them on how to assist the mother best and providing them with opportunities to rest and recharge. Working closely with the birth partner, doulas leverage their training and expertise to actively empower partners to participate in the labor and birth process. After all, it takes teamwork to ensure a mother's comfort and well-being during labor!
Regardless of the circumstances leading up to the birth, a doula is steadfast in providing unwavering support to parents. Even in planned or unplanned situations requiring a trip to the Operating Room, doulas are often permitted to accompany parents. And don't fret—while we're there, we'll capture those priceless moments of meeting your baby, ensuring you have beautiful memories to cherish forever!
No, doulas are there to support parents in achieving their birthing preferences, regardless of whether they desire a medicated or unmedicated birth or whether they have an at-home or in-hospital setting.
